After more than a year since the end of the first season, the official announce of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba second season “vague” release date finally happened this week!. The news was shared to butter fans up for Valentine’s Day, and it goes without saying the ploy worked. Otakus around the world are amped for the big season, and they’re eager to see what the story’s Entertainment District arc has in store!
This big announcement was made in Japan just in time for Valentine’s Day. The cast and staff of the anime held a live stream event to showcase some of the series’ biggest goods coming in 2021. As you can imagine, the team had a lot to share about the anime’s upcoming console game title, but everything went mad when season two was officially announced to air this year.

Demon Slayer is now a global phenomenon after its arrival in the west on Netflix, and back in Japan the movie continues to break box office records left and right.
But now we have gotten a glimpse at what will happen after the events of the movie with a brand new, short trailer previewing the famous Entertainment District Arc from the manga:
We only have a vague release date for Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba season 2 right now, which is 2021, so this year. And if they’re saying 2021, that likely means late 2021. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba season 1 originally debuted in spring 2019 and ended in fall 2019, so we could be seeing about a two year gap between seasons. So needless to say, fans are excited to even hear the news that it’s arriving this year.
