A brief recap of Sword of the Demon Hunter episode 6

Sword of the Demon Hunter episode 6 picked up from the ending of episode 5, with Naotsugu escorting Jinya to his home to investigate the belongings Sadanaga had left behind. After examining the items, Jinya realizes that Sadanaga's disappearance must have been the work of a demon. As a result, he decides to inspect the room that Sadanaga once used.

Eventually, both Naotsugu and Jinya find themselves whisked away into a different space. The visions within this strange realm reveal how the eerie little girl from episode 5 lost her parents and all of her belongings in a fire, transforming into a demon due to the overwhelming emotions she experienced. The demon girl soon appears before Jinya and Naotsugu, revealing that the unusual space is a dreamscape created by her abilities.

Apparently, Sadanaga had stumbled into this space, sensed the demon girl's loneliness, and decided to essentially adopt her. Unfortunately, due to time dilation, Sadanaga aged significantly and chose to abandon his former identity as Sadanaga Miura.

Naotsugu comes to terms with the fact that his brother will not return to the Miura family and thanks Jinya for his help. The episode ends with Jinya deducing that the soba restaurant owner was, in fact, Sadanaga Miura, with the demon girl now living as his daughter, Ofuu.

Sword of the Demon Hunter episode 7: What to expect?

Sword of the Demon Hunter episode 7 will mainly focus on bringing closure to Jinya and his estranged relationship with his biological father. The episode will follow Jinya as he tries to solve the mystery of a "demonic painting," which will eventually lead to him mending his relationship with his father.
