In the upcoming Demon Slayer season 3 episode 3, viewers can expect Tanjiro and Kotetsu to uncover a hidden Sengoku-era sword. However, their excitement will quickly turn to disappointment when they realize the sword is rusted. Hotaru Haganezuka, a swordsmith, will make a surprise appearance and offer to restore the blade for Tanjiro, revealing that he has been training to improve his forging skills to create a stronger sword for the young Demon Slayer.

Meanwhile, in Demon Slayer season 3 episode 3, the danger in the background will continue to grow as the two Upper Rank demons, Gyokko and Hantengu, make their presence known. Gyokko will be seen killing a swordsmith, while Hantengu expresses the urgency of accomplishing their mission. This new threat will undoubtedly lead to heightened tension and anticipation for the battles to come.


A brief recap of Demon Slayer season 3 episode 2

In Demon Slayer season 3 episode 2, Tanjiro meets a young boy named Kotetsu, who is the caretaker of a centuries-old, six-armed mechanical doll called Yoriichi Type Zero. Tanjiro watches Hashira Muichiro Tokito train against the doll, and when Muichiro accidentally damages it, Tanjiro decides to help Kotetsu. They discover that the doll is still functional, and Kotetsu encourages him to train with it to become stronger than Muichiro.

Under Kotetsu's strict supervision, Tanjiro undergoes intense training without food, water, or sleep. His determination and perseverance paid off as he gained the ability to predict the doll's movements, honing his stamina and foresight. His progress has not gone unnoticed by Kotetsu, who has become increasingly invested in the Demon Slayer's growth.

During a sparring session, Tanjiro manages to land a decisive blow on the doll's neck but hesitates at the last moment out of concern for breaking the precious artifact. Kotetsu reassures him that it can be fixed and urges him to follow through with the strike. Encouraged, Tanjiro beheads the doll, but in the process, he breaks his training sword.

At the end of the episode, Tanjiro and Kotetsu are surprised to find a sword's hilt emerging from the doll's body where its head used to be. This discovery adds an air of mystery and anticipation as to what the duo will uncover next in their quest for strength and knowledge.
