What to expect from Demon Slayer season 3 episode 2
Demon Slayer season 3 episode 2 will introduce Tanjito to the training model of Yoriichi, the progenitor of the Demon Slayer Corps. Initially, Tanjiro will be seen confusing the fighting model for a real person as he is still unaware of the history of the Demon Slayer Corps. The episode will also introduce him to the second key Hashira of the season, Mist Hashira aka Muichiro.
Yoriichi is a crucial part of Demon Slayer's extensive warrior history. Yoriichi and Tanjiro have a unique connection that has been hinted at multiple times throughout the series. Thus, the upcoming episode is anticipated to bring Tanjiro some character development as he begins training with the legendary model. According to the manga, the event will eventually lead to the discovery of the 300-year-old hidden sword.
A brief recap of the first episode
With the first episode of season 3, the Swordsmith Village Arc, or the ninth arc of the manga, officially began. The episode kick-started from where the Entertainment District Arc left off. It showcased Tanjiro traveling to the legendary swordsmith's village in search of a new Nichirin sword and ending up meeting Love Hashira aka Mitsuri.
The episode also explored past events a little more through a dream-like phase of Tanjito, hinting at the connection between him and Yoiichi. It also saw Tanjiro recovering from his injuries alongside his friends before leaving for his new journey with Nezuko.
While on the other side, Muzan was shown holding a meeting with his Upper Moon about the decapitation of the Upper Rank 6, Daki, and Gyutaro, where fans got to see the raging dynamic between Akaza and Doma. Gyokko, Hantengu, and the Upper One, Kokushibo were also introduced in the episode.
