Demon Slayer Preview Teases Zenitsu’s Biggest Battle

by

In the upcoming movie “Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle,” Tanjiro and the Hashira will be busy battling against Muzan, the demonic leader, and his top lieutenants. Zenitsu, though not yet a Hashira, is one of the key sword-wielding characters in the first film of the trilogy. The movie is scheduled to premiere in North American theaters on September 12th next week. In anticipation, Ufotable has released a fresh sneak peek at the popular anime series. Zenitsu is gearing up for a fight against a demon residing within Muzan’s stronghold, and the battle seems to have personal implications.

In our previous encounter, Zenitsu – the sleepwalking swordsman – was with Tanjiro and Inosuke during the Hashira training arc. He’s been striving to boost his powers following his time away during the Swordsmith Village Arc. A crucial event unfolded in the fourth season that could offer fans a sneak peek into Zenitsu’s future, particularly for his lightning-focused character. During his training, Zenitsu encountered a cryptic message that noticeably affected his mental state. While avoiding major spoilers, we can say this message’s content will be disclosed in the upcoming movie, and the adversary Zenitsu is set to confront played a key role in the ominous news he received at home. For a sneak peek of Zenitsu battling the enigmatic Kaigaku, check out the fresh video clip below.

Zenitsu Unleashed

In our assessment of “Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle” at egmr.ru, we made sure to highlight both the pros and cons of the initial installment in the trilogy. More specifically, Zenitsu’s battle served as a vivid example of both the film’s successes and shortcomings. Fortunately, you’ll get to witness this firsthand when the movie premieres in theaters next week and beyond. Here’s our analysis from our review of the film:

Infinity Castle,” we emphasized both its strengths and weaknesses, especially focusing on Zenitsu’s fight as a representation of both the movie’s strong points and areas for improvement. You’ll be able to observe this yourself when the film reaches cinemas next week and beyond. Here is our analysis from our review:

Regarding the overall plotline, three significant battles that I previously mentioned dominate most of the film’s duration. While almost every character is present, some are unfortunately sidelined. This critique may be directed more towards the original material, as certain heroes have been waiting in the wings for quite a long time and had minimal involvement in “Infinity Castle”. Without revealing any spoilers, there were two main characters who seemed conspicuously absent. Turning to the battles themselves, Zenitsu’s fight with a character who typically operates in the shadows is the least impressive. The lackluster quality of this confrontation isn’t due to the animation or combat choreography but rather the underdeveloped emotional connection that could have been better established in earlier storylines, such as the brief appearance during the fourth season’s Hashira Training Arc.

Curious about whether Zenitsu will make it through his forthcoming fight, given that he’s teaming up with his comrades within the Infinity Castle? Keep tabs on Team Anime over at egmr.ru for the most current news regarding Demon Slayer, and don’t hesitate to join the conversation in the comments!
