After months of anticipation, Demon Slayer fans who have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Season 4 on Netflix can now mark their calendars. On October 31, 2024, the streaming platform will release the latest installment of the anime series, just in time for Halloween.

Fans who have already followed Demon Slayer on Crunchyroll, where Season 4 originally aired earlier this year, are familiar with the latest arc—The Hashira Training Arc. This portion of the story covers chapters 128-136 of the manga and follows Tanjiro as he embarks on an intense training regimen, working to rise to the rank of Hashira, a high-ranking position within the Demon Slayer Corps.

Netflix already hosts the first three seasons of the anime, making it a go-to platform for those wanting to catch up before diving into this new release. What sets this season apart is its brevity—Season 4 only features eight episodes. For comparison, Season 1 had 26 episodes, Season 2 had 18, and Season 3 consisted of just 11. This marks a trend of shorter seasons, but Demon Slayer has maintained its quality, ensuring each episode is packed with stunning animation and intense action.

For those unfamiliar, the Hashira Training Arc serves as a key stepping stone for the final chapter of the series: the Infinity Castle Arc. This finale will be adapted into a highly anticipated movie trilogy. With a teaser already out, it’s clear that the journey of Tanjiro and his companions is building toward an epic conclusion.

If Demon Slayer isn't the only anime you're looking forward to, October has plenty in store for anime enthusiasts. The fall 2024 anime season also features the release of Blue Lock Season 2, Re:Zero Season 3, and the eerie Uzumaki, based on the horror manga by Junji Ito. Additionally, Dragon Ball fans can expect the new Dragon Ball Daima series.

With the countdown to October 31 now underway, Netflix subscribers will soon be able to enjoy the latest chapter of Tanjiro's journey. If you’re a fan of action-packed, beautifully animated anime, this is a date you won’t want to miss.
