Infinity Castle’ Part 2 And 3 Release Dates

Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle is currently demolishing box office records in Japan, records set originally by Demon Slayer: Mugen Train, years earlier. They really like Demon Slayer.

But fans know that this first Infinity Castle film is only Part 1, and Parts 2 and 3 are separate movies, a trilogy that is going to be the end of the entire series. A series that will…span an entire decade, according to new reports about the release dates for Infinity Castle Parts 2 and 3.

A new report from AniRave says a source they trust has informed them that Infinity Castle Part 2 will air in 2027 and Infinity Castle Part 3 will air in 2029. That would be around ten years since Demon Slayer first debuted in 2019, and the end result of this would be a total of four seasons of a show and three movies.

Fans have not liked hearing these are the dates, and were hoping the movies would get here faster. After all, it took just five years for there to be four seasons of the show which is a whopping 63 episodes in total. At 2 hours and 30 minutes, Infinity Castle is roughly 7.5 episodes. So 7.5 episodes every two years? Why is it taking so long?

Well, the main issue is going to be production quality and just how much work the above-and-beyond animation is going to be for the films. Those who have seen the first one can attest to how great it is.

While these dates are not official, fans hoping that maybe the “real” dates are closer together are in for disappointment. If anything, it’s possible the actual gaps between Part 1 and 2 and 2 and 3 may be even longer than this. Ufotable has said that production on just Part 1 took 3.5 years, started while the old seasons were still airing. Not to say that every movie is going to take 3.5 years from the release of the last one, putting us at 2032, but one every two years is sort of a blessing, in that context, as frustrating as it may be for fans.

It’s frankly a miracle that Demon Slayer got 63 episodes out in five years with its animation quality, and while it’s understandable fans may be confused about the delay with the movies, there’s no real getting around it. I’m seeing some say the “hype will be dead,” but the time the series finishes in 2029, but I mean, this is Demon Slayer, hype for it does not die.
