Demon Slayers newest movie bridges the gap between the animes third and fourth seasons.
Demons thrive on hunting and devouring humans.
Success is a tricky thing.
These films combine the previous seasons finale with the upcoming seasons premiere into a loosely structured package.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba To The Hashira Trainingis still two separate episodes that are hastily crammed together.
That being said, the story is meatier and the action is more exciting this time around.

The movie begins with a flashy sizzle reel of each previousDemon Slayerstory arc.
Its yet another reminder that this movie is truly one for the fans and not curious, casual newcomers.
To The Hashira Trainingis full of demon annihilation and pensive plotting.

In full sentences and everything.
To The Hashira Traininginitially chronicles the tag-team takedown of Upper Rank Demon, Hantengu.
This is nothing new for this series, but there is some truly gorgeous animation on display here.
Oh, and Zenitsu and Inosuke are back!
Tengen and his three wives, too.
Those who are deeply in love withDemon Slayerwill no doubt cheer during this cinematic adventure.
