Anime fans are eagerly awaiting the chance to enjoy the fourth season of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, but when will the new episodes be available on streaming?
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is based on the manga series by Koyoharu Gotoge published under SHUEISHA’s JUMP COMICS, which consists of 23 volumes.
Before the streaming release, Crunchyroll announced in January that Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – To the Hashira Training would be coming to the big screen in what was described as an “extra-sized blockbuster experience”. The release will bundle together the final episode of the third season of the series (the Swordsmith Village Arc) with the first episode of the fourth season (the Hashira Training Arc).
The release will mark the first time the finale of the Swordsmith Village Arc has ever been shown in cinemas, and it will also be the first-ever showing of the Hashira Training Arc’s beginning.
The cinematic release will be screening in UK cinemas from February 23, with a special screening taking place at the BFI IMAX on February 25, featuring guests Natsuki Hanae (the voice actor who plays Tanjiro Kamado) and producer Yuma Takahashi.
