The previous episode focused on Kotetsu and Tanjiro. The latter refined his swordsmanship skills by sparring against the mechanical doll, Yoriichi Type Zero. Kotetsu had surprisingly good analytical skills that allowed him to give Tanjiro crucial inputs. While he was extremely strict, Tanjiro progressed quite a lot during this training.

Towards the end of the episode, Kotetsu and Tanjiro were shocked to see a 300-year-old sword fitted into the core of the doll. Episode 3 of Demon Slayer Season 3 will further reveal information regarding the sword, and focus on their interaction with Haganezuka as well.

What to expect in the upcoming episode?

In Demon Slayer Season 3 Episode 3, we can expect Haganezuka to make a surprise entrance from the woods.

Given Tanjiro’s humble attitude, he will most likely not accept the sword straightaway. However, it certainly would benefit Kotetsu since he resented the Mist Hashira, Muchiro Tokito. One of the primary reasons for Kotetsu training Tanjiro is the fact that he wanted the demon hunter to be stronger than the Hashira.

Based on what’s shown in the manga, Tanjiro Kamado would go on to accept the sword.

The episode will also feature a humorous interaction between Genya and Tanjiro. The former is always in an agitated state, and Tanjiro’s calm demeanor only seems to fuel his anger.

The episode will most likely end with a swordsmith being drawn to a peculiar vase and getting devoured by a demon. This demon is Gyokko, the Upper Moon 5 demon that accurately located the village. The aforementioned demon and Hantengu would then go on to successfully infiltrate the village without raising any alarms.
