Demon Slayer season 3 has been in the works for quite some time, with the second season of the show having ended over a year ago.

The new season is expected to depict the events in the protagonist's life just a few days after the completion of the Entertainment District arc, with Tanjiro embarking on a journey to the legendary village of the swordsmiths in search of a replacement for his sword. There, he will meet Muichiro Tokito, the Mist Hashira, and Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira.

Meanwhile, in response to the deaths of two Upper Moons, Daki and Gyutaro, in season 2, Muzan will launch an attack. He will dispatch a large group of demons, as well as two powerful members of Twelve Kizuki, Upper Moon 4, Hantengu, and Upper Moon 5, Gyokko, to launch a full-fledged attack on them. It will be up to Tanjiro and the Hashiras to stop the attack and help safeguard the Swordsmith Village.
