The second season follows on from where the film ended and continues adapting the manga in its forthcoming episodes.

Tengen Uzui, who has the special ability to command sound, is a major part of the second season.

The second season adapts the fan-favourite Entertainment District Arc from the manga, which follows Tanjiro to Japan’s red-light district in order to track down a demon that has been causing havoc in the area. As you'd expect, that arc contains some suggestive content, though the season has passed Japanese standards and practices without any changes to the original story.

The season also delves deeper into the mythology of the Hashira.

With the second season of Demon Slayer now over, we can now begin the possibility of when more episodes of the anime could be making its way over to Netflix. Sadly, a long wait is expected as more episodes of Demon Slayer may not arrive until sometime in 2023. Here’s why.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is a Japanese anime series, based on the manga of the same name by author Koyoharu Gotōge. Since the release of the anime series, the popularity of Demon Slayer has exploded. In just over five years since the manga debuted in February 2016, in 2020 the franchise generated over $8.75 billion in sales revenue, making it one of the highest-grossing media franchises in history.

It can’t be understated just how popular the franchise has become. Thanks to some truly fantastic animation by the talented artists at Ufotable, Demon Slayer’s popularity has exploded. The movie, Demon Slayer: Mugen Train, broke Studio Ghibli’s Japan box office record by becoming the highest-grossing movie in the nation’s history.


When is Demon Slayer season 2 coming to Netflix?

Possible Netflix Release Date: June 2023


What can fans expect from the second season of Demon Slayer?

If Demon Slayer the Movie: Mugen Train isn’t available to stream on Netflix then fans can choose to watch an episodic version of the events of the Mugen Train arc in the anime.

After the Mugen Train arc the anime picks up at the Entertainment District arc where Tanjiro and his friends go to Yoshiwara, an infamous and unscrupulous red-light district in Edo, where demons, crime, and other unsavory acts are running rampant. When a number of wives go missing in the area, demon activity is suspected.

It’s up to Tanjiro, and a new friend with a personal connection to the mystery, to get to the bottom of the issue before anyone else disappears.
