Okay, let's talk about something important. Critically important. I'm talking about the next season of Demon Slayer.
When is it coming out?! We're all practically vibrating with anticipation.
The Great Demon Slayer Wait: A Comedy
Seriously, the wait feels longer than Tanjiro's forehead. And that's saying something.
We've all been there. Refreshing Crunchyroll every five minutes. Scouring Twitter for leaks (don't deny it!).
It's become a national pastime, right? Second only to binge-watching the first season again.
Rumors, Rumors Everywhere!
The internet is a swirling vortex of rumors. One day it's "October 2024!". The next? "Delayed indefinitely because a demon ate the animators' lunch."
Okay, I made that second one up. But honestly, wouldn't that be a wild plot twist?
It's hard to know what's real anymore! We're basically relying on whispers carried on the wind by Kasugai Crows.
My Bold (and Possibly Wrong) Prediction
Here's my take, and brace yourselves, it's controversial. I think... (drumroll please)... we'll see something in late 2024 or early 2025.
Yeah, I know, super specific. But hey, I'm just a humble fan throwing my hat (or rather, my Demon Slayer headband) into the ring.
Don't come for me if I'm wrong! Blame Muzan. It's always his fault.
What We Do Know (Sort Of)
Ufotable, the studio behind the magic, is known for its amazing work. And for taking their time.
Good animation takes effort! We want those gorgeous fight scenes, right?
We also know they’ve been busy with other projects. But surely, Demon Slayer is high on their priority list.
While We Wait: coping strategies
So, how do we survive the agonizing wait? I have a few ideas.
First, reread the manga. Relive the hype. Remember how awesome everything is.
Second, rewatch the movie! Mugen Train still hits hard, even the tenth time.
Third, (and this is my personal favorite) create fan theories. The more outlandish, the better.
Finally, let's all collectively send good vibes to Ufotable. And maybe some coffee. They deserve it.
An Unpopular Opinion (Prepare Yourselves!)
Okay, here it comes. My super controversial opinion.
I think the wait is actually... kinda good? I know, I know, hear me out!
The longer we wait, the more hyped we become! The anticipation is half the fun. It's like unwrapping a super amazing present...very, very slowly.
Think about it! When Season 2 finally drops, it'll be an absolute explosion of excitement. A Demon Slayer party for the ages!
Final Thoughts (and a Plea to the Anime Gods)
So, when will Demon Slayer Season 2 arrive? Your guess is as good as mine.
But one thing is for sure: it'll be worth the wait. Just keep your swords sharp and your hope alive.
And to the anime gods: please, please, PLEASE give us a release date soon! We're begging you!
Until then, happy waiting! May your days be filled with demons, and your nights with dreams of Tanjiro, Nezuko and the whole gang.
Let's all cross our fingers (and toes!) for a sooner rather than later return!
