Demon Slayer Infinity Castle trailer out: Tanjiro's final war begins
"The word final phase keeps crossing my mind" - Yes, the moment has 'Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle' trailer just dropped, and if you felt a sudden urge to scream, cry, and unsheath a katana at the same time - you're not alone. This is the beginning of the end, and the vibes? Unreal. Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures have kicked off the first film in the three-part finale with a trailer that's all blood, smoke, and serious heat. And trust us, it's not just the animation that's dive straight into the madness after Muzan's surprise ambush. The Demon Slayer Corps gets yanked into his twisted house of doom - the Infinity Castle - and things go sideways fast. A broody voiceover sets the tone: 'The final battle. These words echo in my mind' It's cinematic. It's dramatic. It's exactly the kind of energy we expect from a showdown this big. Tanjiro is in full beast mode. His sword's blazing with Hinokami Kagura, but it's his eyes that do the talking - locked in, brimming with pain, and ready to end this. This is no longer the kind-hearted boy who hesitated. This is someone who's lost too much and has nothing left to hold then, out of nowhere — Zenitsu 2.0. Gone are the shrieks and panic attacks. The man walks like he's already calculated every move, eyes wide open, thunder rumbling underneath. That letter from his master clearly lit something fierce inside him. It's a whole new Zenitsu, and he's not here to play. advertisementInosuke, as always, charges in like a storm in a boar mask. No fear, no strategy, just pure wild energy. But manga readers know - beneath all that bravado, this arc's going to test him in ways we've never seen Hashiras are locked and loaded. Fuelled by the pain of losing their master, every single one of them is going into this battle with everything they've got. But they're stepping into Muzan's lair — a shifting, eerie deathtrap with no logic and no mercy. And Muzan? He's yet, something - someone - is missing. Nezuko. The sun-walking demon girl. The one Muzan wants more than anything. The trailer barely shows her, but that only makes her absence louder. Where is she? What's her role in the final act? Whatever it is, it's going to hit just when you think you've seen it all — the trailer saves its gut-punch for last. Tanjiro vs Akaza. Yeah, that Akaza. The Upper Rank Three who tore Rengoku from us on the Mugen Train. The moment we've been waiting for since that heart-wrenching sunset scene is finally here. And now, with Tanjiro fresh off a brutal Hashira training arc, you know he's coming for blood. This is personal. This is war. And this time, the boy who once called Akaza a coward is ready to prove just how much he's grown - by setting his own heart not forget that chilling glimpse of Doma. With his smile-too-wide and unsettlingly flamboyant presence, the Upper Rank Two demon makes a flashy entrance. He's pretty, he's unpredictable, and he's a full-blown nightmare in pastel. Don't let the fanboy energy fool you - he's just as deadly as he is Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle continues the anime's theatrical storytelling approach following previous releases like 'Mugen Train' and 'To the Swordsmith Village'.It will be available on IMAX and premium large format screens, distributed by Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment. The film is scheduled for release in India on September 12.- EndsYou May Also Like

Demon Slayer Infinity Castle trailer: Sony, Crunchyroll go big on the ‘Final Battle'
Sony Pictures and Crunchyroll, after an endless wait, finally released the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle trailer, teasing 'the beginning of the end'. The movie trilogy was announced last year, right after the Hashira Training Arc finale. Directed by Haruo Sotozaki and animated by Ufotable, the upcoming Infinity Castle film will wrap up the fan favourite Demon Slayer anime for good. The upcoming movie picks up right after the anime's fourth season and is adapted from the final arc of Koyoharu Gotoge's original manga. Tanjiro, along with other Demon Slayer Corps members, are thrown into the enemy's nest, the Infinity Castle, after Muzan Kibutsuji, the main villain, launches a surprise attack. The chapter is the final faceoff between demons and the slayers. The first film will open in theatres across North America on September 12.

This battle may finally reach its conclusion tonight.' Cut to the next scene, we see intense action sequences, thrilling visuals, and the ultimate faceoffs fans have been waiting for. The movie also comes with two original soundtrack tracks: 'A World Where the Sun Never Rises' by Aimer and 'Shine in the Cruel Night' by LiSA. Both songs will drop on streaming platforms on July 18, when we might also get another teaser or trailer. Before this, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train, which was released in 2020, crushed box office records with an unexpected surge in popularity. The film ended up making over $507 million globally, becoming the highest-earning anime movie of all time. It also went down as Japan's most successful film to date, so this time, the stakes are really high. For those new to the franchise, Demon Slayer tells the story of a young boy named Tanjiro Kamado who lived peacefully in the mountains, supporting his family. But one day, when he returned to his village, he found his entire family brutally slaughtered by a demon. The only survivor was his sister, Nezuko, who had also turned into a demon. Unlike others, though, she still had a soft spot for Tanjiro. But he couldn't bear to see her in that state. Tanjiro ends up joining the Demon Slayer Corps to find a way to turn her human again and destroy the demon king Muzan. The upcoming trilogy is where that fight finally ends. Demon Slayer has stayed one of the highest-grossing, most-read manga ever since it debuted in 2018.
