What to expect in Demon Slayer season 3, episode 5?

Now that Mitsuri Kanroji has finally been alerted about the attack, she will save the villagers from the fish demons that Gyokko summoned. She would also save the village chief, Tecchin, from one of the fish demons. He is also the same person that crafted Mitsuri’s flexible sword.

The upcoming Demon Slayer episode will introduce Gyokko to the audience. Muichiro Tokito would go on to save Kanamori-san in the nick of time. Following that, the Upper Moon 5 demon would show up with his so-called “artwork,” comprising dead villagers held together by swords that have pierced through them.

The episode will likely end with the contents covered in chapter 112 of the manga. The scene would return to the building where Tanjiro and Nezuko were injured. Nezuko would grab Tanjiro’s sword until her hands bled. She would use her Blood Demon Art to burn the blood-stained blade. By increasing the temperature, Tanjiro’s sword would glow red.
