Ufotable really turned the tables on anime TV adaptations with the latest season of Demon Slayer. Despite turning the manga pages very slowly, each episode of the Kimetsu no Yaiba Hashira Training Arc Season 4 has introduced a series of game-changing original anime-only developments, adding more layers to the much-loved shonen program.
Demon Slayer Hashira Arc Training Episode 4, “To Bring a Smile to One’s Face”, released this Sunday, June 2, and features Tanjiro and everyone else fully engaged in training. Here’s what we know about the season’s fifth entry.
Crunchyroll describes the anime adaptation of Koyoharu Gotōge’s manga series as follows:
“It’s the Taishō period in Japan. Tanjiro, a kind-hearted boy who sells coal for a living, sees his family slaughtered by a demon. To make matters worse, his younger sister Nezuko, the only survivor, has been transformed into a demon herself.
Though disheartened by this horrifying reality, Tanjiro resolves to become a “demon killer so he can turn his sister back into a human, and kill the demon who massacred his family.”

Demon Slayer Season 4 Episode 4 Brief Description
Expanding the limits of the lead characters’ training horizons, the latest episode saw Tanjiro reaching out to the Mist Hashira Muichiro Tokito, whose challenges and strategies take a heavy toll on demon hunters in training. His harsh regime pushes everyone to their limits.
While the others struggled to reach his level, Tokito later ventured out for secret sessions with the Wind Hashira and the Serpent Hashira. The June 9 episode will likely expand on these training sessions as Tanjiro and the others continue on their path to becoming stronger than ever to defeat Muzan and his demons.
