Recap of the previous episode

Expand Tweet

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 arc thus far has given characters a moment to shine here and there when it comes to interactions. However, this episode did focus on Tanjiro making his return as he finally recovered from his wounds from previous seasons.

The episode mostly focused on Tanjiro starting his training with the former Hashira, Tengen Uzui, and the different challenges that come with reaching that level on such short notice. This also included some fun character interactions between Tanjiro and Tengen's wives while they were training.

Perhaps one of the most interesting moments was the anime-only inclusion of the conversation between two more Hashira, Sanemi Shinazugawa and Obanai Iguro. The duo had already shared another moment in the first episode that was included by Ufotable in this season. However, this one served to shed some light on their characters and what is driving them to what seems to be the final battle against Muzan and his last remaining demons.

What to expect in Demon Slayer season 4 episode 4?

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. As the title suggests, this is a training arc that focuses on getting the characters stronger.

Therefore, it's probable that Demon Slayer season 4 episode 4 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 ones that were introduced in this one.
