How To Watch Demon Slayer In Order: A Guide For Begginers
What began as a simple task as turned into a bit of a Tanjiro-style headache. But we’re here to clue you in on how to watch Demon Slayer in order, from all the arcs, the Mugen Train movie, and what is ultimately skippable in the grand scheme of things.
You are probably already shouting questions at your screen: where should you begin? Should you watch the Mugen Train movie? And what exactly is Demon Slayer season 2? To help you prepare for Demon Slayer season 3, we’ve put together a no-nonsense guide on how to watch Demon Slayer in order. You can breathe a little easier now.
Watch Order Guide :
Demon Slayer currently consists of two seasons, with a movie sandwiched in-between. The first season, released in 2019, is 26 episodes long – and you should watch that from start to finish.
Here’s where it gets a little trickier to follow. A sequel to the first season was released as a film: Demon Slayer: Mugen Train. The wildly successful Demon Slayer movie was also adapted into a television arc to begin Demon Slayer season 2.
That ‘Mugen Train’ arc is followed by wholly original episodes in the 'Entertainment District Arc'. The Mugen Train arc is seven episodes long; the Entertainment District arc consists of a further 11 episodes.
To keep things simple, we recommend watching Demon Slayer season 1 then picking either the Mugen Train feature film or the Mugen Train recap arc to watch. From there, you can watch the Entertainment District arc. Laid out on the page, the Demon Slayer watch order looks a little like this.
Should I Watch The Mugen Train Movie ?
Absolutely. It’s a full sequel to the first season and, unlike other anime movies, it’s canon. It also introduces various characters and concepts that are followed up on in Demon Slayer’s Entertainment District Arc.
It does feel a little redundant to watch both the movie and the Mugen Train arc series, so make sure you pick one or the other.
