Fans of Tengen Uzui, take note: the Sound Hashira will make a short return to the big screen for a limited time in Japanese theaters! Ahead of the July premiere of the first Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle film, Toho cinemas and ufotable are collaborating on a new exclusive "etiquette" video featuring the return of Tengen Uzui and his three wives that will screen before Toho Cinema features this summer. These short "etiquette" features are a fun reminder to moviegoers to respect their fellow attendees' viewing experience. A very brief teaser shows a little of what we can expect, but only Toho Cinema attendees will get to see the full short, which will start screening before select films from June 20 to July 17 in Japan. The Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba series announced on March 1 that the new movie will premiere in Japan on July 18. Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment also previously announced in June 2024 the acquisition of the trilogy of movies for a global theatrical release (excluding select Asian territories and Japan). Haruo Sotozaki directs Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba at anime studio Ufotable. Akira Matsushima is the Chief Animation Director and Character Designer and music is by Yuki Kajiura and Go Shiina. Crunchyroll streams both the TV anime series and Mugen Train movie in both sub and dub formats, along with the latest Hashira Training Arc . Crunchyroll describes the upcoming movie: Tanjiro Kamado – a boy who joined an organization dedicated to hunting down demons called the Demon Slayer Corps after his younger sister Nezuko was turned into a demon. While growing stronger and deepening his friendships and bonds with fellow corps members, Tanjiro has battled many demons with his comrades – Zenitsu Agatsuma and Inosuke Hashibira. Along the way, his journey has led him to fight alongside the Demon Slayer Corps’ highest-ranking swordsmen, the Hashira, including Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku aboard the Mugen Train, Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui within the Entertainment District, as well as Mist Hashira Muichiro Tokito and Love Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji at the Swordsmith Village. As the Demon Slayer Corps members and Hashira engaged in a group strength training program, the Hashira Training, in preparation for the forthcoming battle against the demons, Muzan Kibutsuji appears at the Ubuyashiki Mansion. With the head of the Demon Corps in danger, Tanjiro and the Hashira rush to the headquarters but are plunged into a deep descent to a mysterious space by the hands of Muzan Kibutsuji. The destination of where Tanjiro and Demon Slayer Corps have fallen is the demons’ stronghold – the Infinity Castle. And so, the battleground is set as the final battle between the Demon Slayer Corps and the demons ignites. Source: Aniplex YouTube Channel
