Demon Slayer Season 4 premiere date finally revealed in new trailer

Demon Slayer Season 4 is one of the most highly anticipated anime releases of 2024, and a new trailer has confirmed the premiere date.

In terms of anime franchises, they don’t get much bigger right now than Demon Slayer.

Between box office records and the enthralling ongoing narrative, the anime show following Tanjiro’s demon slaying quest just seems to get better and better.

Right now, we’re waiting for Demon Slayer Season 4, where we’ll kick into the Hashira Training Arc. A fresh teaser tells us exactly exactly when we can see the first episode, and it’s only a couple of months away.

Demon Slayer Season 4 starts in May 2024

The latest trailer for Demon Slayer Season 4 reveals that the anime series returns on May 12, 2024. Before this, all we knew was spring 2024, so thankfully there hasn’t been a delay.

The footage in the trailer centers, as you might expect, on Tanjiro’s rigorous training to become Hashira rank, a particularly challenging level of demon hunter to obtain. Only a few ever manage it, so he has his work cut out for him, on top of whatever evil entities present themselves along the way.

Those who saw the latest anime movie in the franchise, To The Hashira Training, will recognize more or less everything in the trailer. But that’s to be expected — this arc isn’t especially long and the compilation film was really an extended teaser to begin with that let fans see the first episode early and in cinemas.

For most of the audience, this will all be brand new. Come May 12, we’ll be diving in together for real. If you can’t wait that long, we have a list of the best anime like Demon Slayer to satiate your demonic appetite.
