About Demon Slayer Season 3
The third season of Demon Slayer is officially the Swordsmith Village Arc. We won’t reveal any material source spoilers here, but it will include manga chapters 100-127. The Entertainment District Arc covered a similar period from 70 to 99, so this season will likely consist of 12 episodes, give or take one.
Unless there are significant deviations, Tanjiro should travel to Swordsmith Village to acquire a new weapon. Fortunately, the settlement is the location of an ancient weapon. The story also involves the Love and Mist Hashiras and maybe a demon of Upper-Rank status.
On a bigger scale, the Entertainment District finale also hinted at the likely direction the show will go beyond season 3 of Demon Slayer. Tengen has been eliminated, yet it is still alive and well. He advised Iguro that Tanjiro would likely succeed Hahira. From there, the Demon Slayers can finally strike back against Muzan Kibutsuji, their ultimate objective.
