Unwitting anime fans might be led to think that Demon Slayer: Swordsmith Village as yet another movie entry from the franchise similar to 2020’s widely successful Mugen Train. However, at only 20 minutes of running time, it is not; rather, it is just a special episode, which consists of the final two episodes from last year’s Entertainment District arc and the first episode for the upcoming third season.

With the Entertainment District arc regarded by many as the second season of the popular anime series, the forthcoming season makes for the third season that fans should also look forward to.

As for why the theatrical release, it simply is a case of being able to see it on the big screen—likely, as a means of cashing in on the Demon Slayer franchise’s overblown prominence which stemmed from the global health crisis.
