The “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle” movie is causing quite a stir in theaters as it premieres this summer across Japan, and the actor playing Zenitsu Agatsuma has hinted at an exciting “new take” on the slayer that fans might not be prepared for. The latest installment marks the beginning of a new trilogy based on Koyoharu Gotoge’s manga series, focusing on the Infinity Castle arc. This sets the stage for some intense battles ahead as Tanjiro Kamado and his fellow slayers prepare to engage in their final fights against Muzan Kibutsuji’s demonic forces. So buckle up, fans – it looks like everyone has a big battle coming their way with this new trilogy!

In the animated series “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle,” Zenitsu’s battle stands out as particularly captivating within the trilogy. Fans have been anticipating this intense showdown between Zenitsu and a secretive adversary. However, at San Diego Comic-Con 2025, voice actor Aleks Le hinted during the film’s panel that the upcoming international release later this Fall will unveil an unexpected version of events, leaving viewers unprepared for what lies ahead.

Zenitsu Star Teases New Demon Slayer Movie

Aleks Le shared insights about Zenitsu’s character in “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle” at San Diego Comic-Con 2025, stating, “For a long time, I’ve been portraying this character, and I often describe him as extremely expressive across the board. He’s exceptionally comedic, attentive, but there’s a side to him we haven’t seen yet – his vulnerable self. This film promises to reveal an entirely new aspect of Zenitsu that fans won’t expect.” An intriguing hint for Zenitsu’s development ahead!

In the anime “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” titled “Infinity Castle”, a sneak peek was given on Zenitsu’s battle in the upcoming arc. It is hinted that he will be battling a high-ranking demon from Kibutsuji, who has not been fully shown in motion yet. Following the Hashira Training arc, Zenitsu received a cryptic letter and his demeanor changed significantly, showing an intensity and seriousness never seen before. This subtle change suggests that this upcoming fight will be deeply personal for Zenitsu, and it’s just one of many significant battles to come in the series.

When Does Demon Slayer’s New Movie Come Out?

Starting this summer, “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle” will start its global release, reaching the United States and Canada on September 12th. During the film’s San Diego Comic-Con 2025 panel, it was revealed that ticket sales for the new movie will commence on August 15th. The film will be presented in both Japanese and English audio versions, with premium and IMAX formats available at select theaters as well. As it adapts the Infinity Castle arc, there’s plenty to anticipate!

As a viewer eagerly anticipating the trilogy, I’ve only just experienced the first installment of “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle”. Regrettably, there’s no word yet on when the second film will be released. Here’s hoping the wait won’t stretch too long to maintain the excitement level. This initial movie clocks in at a lengthy 2 hours and 35 minutes, so the delay seems less daunting knowing the extended viewing experience it promises.
