Demon Slayer season 4 episode 3 is scheduled to release on Sunday, May 26, 2024, at 11:15 pm JST and will be simulcast by Crunchyroll at 10:45 am PT. Viewers in Japan can watch the broadcast on Fuji TV and other local television networks, while Crunchyroll will broadcast it worldwide, catering particularly to the English-speaking audience.
The initial episodes in this new season have introduced the premise that Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu must become stronger to face Muzan and his most powerful demons, which is why the Hashira are going to train them. While Giyuu Tomioka, the Water Hashira, was not willing to do that, the most recent episode explored his backstory and its connection to Tanjiro's initial test to join the Demon Slayer Corps.

Recap of the previous episode
While the arc's focus has been on Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke getting back together after the Swordsmith Village storyline and getting stronger to face Muzan and his demons, this most recent episode also sheds some light on the motivations of other characters. In particular, that of the Water Hashira, Giyuu Tomioka, and why he didn't want to train Tanjiro.
The episode primarily focuses on explaining why, unlike other Hashira, such as Tengen Uzui, Tomioka has a reluctance to train others because of the events he went through in his final test with his friend Sabito. It turns out that Sabito, the spirit who helped Tanjiro pass his training early in the series, was Tomioka's friend, and both of them were doing the final test for the Demon Slayer Corps, with the latter dying to save his life.
While there was also a focus on characters such as Shinobu and Kanao, something that surprised a lot of viewers was the inclusion of another anime-only scene, such as the one featuring Sanemi Shinazugawa and Obanai Iguro in the first episode, but focused on Yoriichi Tsugikuni and his past with Muzan.
What to expect in Demon Slayer season 4 episode 3?
The Hashira Training arc, as most readers of the manga know by now, doesn't have any significant battles, so the fandom can mostly expect more character moments such as training or fleshing out their backstories. Therefore, it's probable that Demon Slayer season 4 episode 3 is likely to focus on character interactions and probably include a few anime-original scenes, such as the ones featuring Obanai and Sanemi in the first episode or the new one with Yoriichi in this recent one.
