Crunchyroll announced the trilogy following the release of the final episode of the show’s Season 4 in July. The final episode of Season 4 covered the Hashira Training Arc.

The Infinity Castle Arc of the manga by Koyoharu Gotouge follows Tanjiro, the Demon Slayer Corps and the seven Hashira being pulled by the demon king Muzan into his lair for a battle. The story covers various fights against the Upper-Rank demons, the most powerful demons in existence.

Set in Taisho-era Japan, Demon Slayer follows the story of Tanjiro Kamado, who returns home one day to find that his family has been killed by demons and his sister Nezuko has been turned into one. He resolves to avenge his family and find a cure for his sister. Soon, he comes across the Demon Slayer Corps and undergoes rigorous training to become a skilled swordsman.

Previously, four movie adaptations of the anime were released, with the recent one hitting the theatres prior to the fourth season’s premiere on May 12. The movie adaptation of Demon Slayer’s Mugen Train Arc broke records in 2020, emerging as the highest-grossing anime movie of all time.
