Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle<\/p>\n
Crunchyroll<\/p>\n
Fans have been waiting for the first installment in the final trilogy of films ending the Demon Slayer anime franchise, and now in the US and many other regions, it\u2019s nearly here. Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle arrives this weekend, and reviews are already coming in for it. So far, they\u2019re perfect.<\/p>\n
As it stands, with a handful of reviews in, critical positivity has resulted in a perfect 100% Rotten Tomatoes score<\/a>. That\u2019s as good as you can hope for, but before people say that there aren\u2019t enough critics in to say this is going to be closer to accurate, I will point you toward the last big theatrical Demon Slayer release, Mugen Train, which ended up with a certified fresh 98% from critics and a stunning 99% from fans.<\/p>\n Infinity Castle is the first in what has become a trilogy of films rather than more seasons of the show, which will cover the anime\u2019s final arc. Early reports<\/a> say that it will take a while to finish, with Part 2 possibly out in 2027 and Part 3 in 2029. That\u2019s not all that shocking, given how long animation takes in this day and age, but it\u2019s still an extremely long wait for what will effectively be 4-5 episodes put together.<\/p>\n What\u2019s going on in the Infinity Castle arc? Here\u2019s the synopsis:<\/p>\n \n \u201cAs the Demon Slayer Corps members and Hashira engaged in a group strength training program, the Hashira Training, in preparation for the forthcoming battle against the demons, Muzan Kibutsuji appears at the Ubuyashiki Mansion. With the head of the Demon Corps in danger, Tanjiro and the Hashira rush to the headquarters but are plunged into a deep descent to a mysterious space by the hands of Muzan Kibutsuji. The destination of where Tanjiro and Demon Slayer Corps have fallen is the demons’ stronghold — the Infinity Castle. And so, the battleground is set as the final battle between the Demon Slayer Corps and the demons ignites.\u201d\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle<\/p>\n Ufotable<\/p>\n Between the 11-12th, Infinity Castle releases in Brazil, Mexico, the UAE, India, South Africa, the UK and Canada, in addition to the US, as opposed to Japan who already saw it way early on July 18, where it set a huge number of box office records, most of those records previously set by Mugen Train. The movie has already made $67 million worldwide already despite not releasing in a number of huge regions. Mugen Train made $486 million worldwide, which no doubt led to the decision that perhaps a trilogy of films rather than more episodes would be the more profitable way forward.<\/p>\n So, we\u2019ll all find out how it goes this weekend, but I cannot imagine it\u2019s not going to be anything but amazing, given how the rest of the series and Mugen Train have gone.<\/p>\n Follow me <\/strong>on Twitter<\/strong><\/a>, <\/strong>YouTube<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong><\/a> and <\/strong>Instagram<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Pick up my sci-fi novels the <\/strong>Herokiller series<\/strong><\/a> and <\/strong>The Earthborn Trilogy<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
