[00:06] ---
    My name is Sakonji Urokodaki.
[00:10] ---
    Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba-
    The Movie: Mugen Train

[00:14] ---
    will be airing on TV (in Japan),
[00:17] ---
    and to coincide with the broadcast,
    several major events are in the works.
[00:23] ---
    I'm making this appearance today
    to tell you all about them.
[00:29] ---
    The air date for Demon Slayer
    -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Movie: Mugen Train

[00:34] ---
    is September 25.
[00:36] ---
    And as a chance to look back on
[00:39] ---
    Tanjiro Kamado's journey
    up until he boards the Mugen Train...
[00:44] ---
    ...Sibling's Bond...
[00:46] ---
    ...released in theaters
    ahead of the TV broadcast in 2019...
[00:51] ---
    In 2020, Mt. Natagumo Arc...
[00:55] ---
    ...and The Hashira Meeting Arc
    aired on Fuji TV's Saturday Premium...
[01:00] ---
    And now,
[01:02] ---
    Asakusa Arc and Tsuzumi Mansion Arc
[01:05] ---
    have been produced anew
    and will also be airing.
[01:10] ---
    Sibling's Bond, Mt. Natagumo Arc
    and The Hashira Meeting Arc
[01:16] ---
    each have newly-produced
    previews and eyecatches
[01:22] ---
    while Asakusa Arc and Tsuzumi Mansion Arc
    have new previews and new credit rolls,
[01:28] ---
    as well as new eyecatches, or so I'm told.
[01:33] ---
    Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba-
    The Movie: Mugen Train

[01:37] ---
    and the upcoming
    Entertainment District Arc...
[01:41] ---
    As their air dates draw nearer,
    I humbly ask you to take a good look
[01:46] ---
    at these records
    of Tanjiro Kamado's heroic struggles.
[02:33] ---
    How?
[02:37] ---
    How did this happen?
[02:42] ---
    Nezuko, don't die! Don't die on me!
[02:47] ---
    I'm gonna save you no matter what!
[02:51] ---
    I won't let you die!
[02:54] ---
    I swear your big brother will save you
    no matter what!
[03:11] ---
    Tanjiro?
[03:15] ---
    Your face is covered in soot.
[03:18] ---
    Come over here.
[03:22] ---
    It's dangerous with all this snow.
    You don't have to go, you know.
[03:26] ---
    Well, I want everyone
    to eat their fill on New Year's,
[03:31] ---
    so I'm going to sell
    as much charcoal as I can.
[03:34] ---
    Thank you.
[03:37] ---
    Big Bro!
[03:40] ---
    You're going to town again today?
[03:42] ---
    I'm going with you!
[03:46] ---
    Oh no, you're not.
[03:47] ---
    You know you can't walk fast like Tanjiro.
[03:50] ---
    Mom!
[03:52] ---
    You may not.
[03:53] ---
    Since he can't use the cart today,
[03:56] ---
    he won't be able to give you a ride
    when you're tired.
[04:01] ---
    Big Bro!
[04:04] ---
    I wanna go with you!
[04:06] ---
    I promise I'll help you!
[04:09] ---
    Thanks, Hanako.
[04:11] ---
    But you're staying home today.
[04:17] ---
    You, too, Shigeru.
    But I'll get you tons of goodies, okay?
[04:22] ---
    Really?
[04:23] ---
    Yeah.
[04:26] ---
    And, Hanako, I'll read for you
    when I'm back.
[04:29] ---
    Okay!
[04:30] ---
    That's a good girl.
[04:31] ---
    Thank you so much, Tanjiro.
[04:33] ---
    Sure.
[04:35] ---
    Okay, I'll be heading out now.
[04:37] ---
    Takeo...
[04:38] ---
    Will you chop as much wood as you can?
[04:42] ---
    Sure, I'll do it, but...
[04:45] ---
    I was hoping we could do it together.
[04:50] ---
    There, there.
[04:51] ---
    What's with that all of a sudden?
[04:53] ---
    You're blushing, Take!
[04:55] ---
    Hey, you shut up!
[04:56] ---
    There, there.
[04:58] ---
    I said cut it out!
[05:04] ---
    Hurry back, okay?
[05:07] ---
    Be safe, okay?
[05:14] ---
    Big Brother!
[05:17] ---
    Hey, Nezuko.
[05:18] ---
    I was putting Rokuta down for a nap,
    or he'd make a scene when you leave.
[05:23] ---
    He misses Dad a lot
    since he passed away.
[05:29] ---
    And everyone follows you
    wherever you go.
[05:35] ---
    See you later!
[05:39] ---
    We don't have an easy life,
[05:42] ---
    but we're happy.
[05:44] ---
    But life could change suddenly
    like the weather.
[05:49] ---
    It shifts and moves on.
[05:52] ---
    It's not like it always stays sunny,
[05:55] ---
    and it's not like it ever snows endlessly.
[05:58] ---
    And...
[06:00] ---
    ...whenever happiness is destroyed,
[06:03] ---
    there's always...
[06:05] ---
    ...the smell of blood.
[06:15] ---
    Well now, Tanjiro!
[06:18] ---
    I can't believe you came down
    from the mountain on a day like this!
[06:21] ---
    You're such a hard worker!
    You might catch a cold, you know!
[06:25] ---
    This is nothing, really.
[06:27] ---
    Do you have enough charcoal?
[06:29] ---
    Hey, Tanjiro!
[06:32] ---
    Can I have some charcoal?
[06:34] ---
    Thanks for fixing
    my sliding doors the other day.
[06:38] ---
    I'll need some charcoal, too!
[06:44] ---
    Tanjiro!
[06:46] ---
    Oh man, perfect timing!
[06:48] ---
    I've been accused
    of breaking this plate!
[06:51] ---
    Help me out, will you?
[06:53] ---
    Sniff it!
[06:59] ---
    I smell a cat.
[07:01] ---
    You see?
[07:02] ---
    Oh my, so it was a cat?
[07:04] ---
    I told you it wasn't me!
[07:06] ---
    Tanjiro!
[07:08] ---
    Can you give me a hand
    with this luggage?
[07:16] ---
    Oh man, it's late already.
[07:19] ---
    I'm glad they're sold out, though.
[07:23] ---
    Hey, Tanjiro!
[07:26] ---
    Are you going to head back
    up the mountain?
[07:28] ---
    You'd better not. It's too dangerous.
[07:30] ---
    I've got a good nose, so I'll be fine.
[07:34] ---
    You can stay here for the night.
[07:36] ---
    Come on. Get back here.
[07:39] ---
    But...
[07:40] ---
    Don't argue! Come on!
[07:42] ---
    Before the demons show up.
[07:58] ---
    Thanks for the meal!
[08:04] ---
    Hey, Mr. Saburo,
[08:07] ---
    what are demons like?
[08:10] ---
    Man-eating demons have always prowled
    the land once it gets dark.
[08:16] ---
    That's why you should never
    stroll around at night.
[08:21] ---
    If you're done eating, go to bed.
    You can set off for home at first light.
[08:29] ---
    Could these demons
    come inside your house?
[08:34] ---
    Yes, they could.
[08:40] ---
    Then, everyone would get eaten up
    by the demons.
[08:46] ---
    That's why the Demon Slayers
    protect us by slaying them...
[08:50] ---
    ...since way back when.
[08:54] ---
    Lights out now.
[08:56] ---
    Go to sleep.
[09:01] ---
    Old man Saburo is all alone
    after losing his whole family.
[09:05] ---
    So, he must be lonely.
[09:07] ---
    I'll bring my brothers
    and sisters next time,
[09:10] ---
    so you don't have to be scared.
    There are no demons. You're safe.
[09:15] ---
    But, come to think of it,
[09:18] ---
    my grandma used to say the same thing
    when she was still alive.
[09:28] ---
    You be careful now.
[09:30] ---
    Okay!
[09:39] ---
    Whenever happiness is destroyed,
[09:42] ---
    there's always...
[09:51] ---
    The smell of blood!
[10:15] ---
    Nezuko!
[10:17] ---
    What happened? What's going on?
[10:21] ---
    What happened here?
[10:28] ---
    Mom...
[10:37] ---
    Mom...
[10:38] ---
    Hanako...
[10:40] ---
    Takeo...
[10:42] ---
    Shigeru...
[10:44] ---
    Nezuko...
[10:45] ---
    Rokuta...
[10:55] ---
    Nezuko's the only one who's still warm!
[10:58] ---
    If I can get her to a doctor,
    she might survive!
[11:01] ---
    How did this happen?
[11:04] ---
    Was it a bear?
[11:06] ---
    Was it a bear that
    wasn't able to hibernate?
[11:14] ---
    I can't breathe!
[11:16] ---
    The air's so icy! My lungs hurt!
[11:20] ---
    Keep moving forward!
[11:22] ---
    Move your legs faster!
[11:25] ---
    We still have a long way to go
    before we reach town.
[11:27] ---
    Hurry!
[11:29] ---
    I won't let you die!
[11:33] ---
    I'm gonna save you no matter what!
[11:36] ---
    I swear your big brother will save you
    no matter what!
[11:46] ---
    Oh no!
[11:56] ---
    I was saved by the snow.
[12:00] ---
    But the snow is also why I slipped.
[12:04] ---
    Nezuko?
[12:11] ---
    Nezuko, are you all right?
[12:15] ---
    You don't have to walk!
[12:16] ---
    I'll carry you to town, okay?
[12:20] ---
    Nezuko!
[12:30] ---
    Sh-She's...
[12:33] ---
    ...a demon!
[12:35] ---
    I just remembered
    what old man Saburo told me.
[12:40] ---
    Nezuko's a man-eating demon?
[12:42] ---
    No! Nezuko's a human
    ever since she was born!
[12:47] ---
    Except, she no longer has Nezuko's scent.
[12:52] ---
    But it wasn't Nezuko's doing!
[12:54] ---
    She was lying
    as if she was protecting Rokuta,
[12:57] ---
    and there was no blood
    on her mouth or hands.
[13:00] ---
    And there was one more...
[13:02] ---
    There was one more scent!
[13:08] ---
    Sh-She just grew in size!
[13:13] ---
    And she's getting stronger and stronger!
[13:16] ---
    While I was sleeping carelessly
    at Saburo's house,
[13:19] ---
    they were murdered brutally like that!
[13:22] ---
    I know it must've hurt!
[13:24] ---
    You suffered, didn't you?
[13:26] ---
    I'm so sorry I couldn't save you!
[13:31] ---
    If only I could help Nezuko at least!
[13:34] ---
    But she's too strong
    for me to push her back!
[13:38] ---
    Nezuko!
[13:39] ---
    Hang in there, Nezuko!
[13:41] ---
    Don't give in!
[13:42] ---
    You gotta hang in there!
[13:45] ---
    Don't turn into a demon!
[13:47] ---
    You gotta stay strong!
[13:49] ---
    Hang in there!
[13:50] ---
    Hang in there!
[14:24] ---
    What the...
[14:30] ---
    Who's that?
[14:35] ---
    "DESTROYER OF DEMONS"
    
[14:36] ---
    "DESTROYER OF DEMONS"
    A sword?
[14:38] ---
    Why are you protecting it?
[14:40] ---
    She's my sister!
[14:41] ---
    She's my younger sister!
[14:46] ---
    Nezuko!
[14:51] ---
    You call that thing your sister?
[15:09] ---
    Nezuko!
[15:10] ---
    Don't move!
[15:15] ---
    My job is to slay demons.
[15:18] ---
    Needless to say,
    I'm going to decapitate your sister.
[15:22] ---
    Hold on!
[15:23] ---
    Nezuko hasn't killed anyone!
[15:26] ---
    Back at my house, there was another scent
    that I'd never smelled before!
[15:30] ---
    That's probably the one
    who killed my family!
[15:35] ---
    It wasn't Nezuko!
[15:37] ---
    I don't know why she turned
    into something like that, but...
[15:40] ---
    ...but still...
[15:42] ---
    It's quite simple.
[15:44] ---
    Because her wounds were exposed
    to demon blood, she turned into a demon.
[15:49] ---
    That's how man-eating demons multiply.
[15:52] ---
    Nezuko would never eat humans!
[15:55] ---
    You gotta be kidding.
[15:57] ---
    Just now, you were about to be devoured.
[16:01] ---
    You're wrong!
[16:02] ---
    I'm sure she knows who I am!
[16:05] ---
    I won't let her hurt anyone!
[16:08] ---
    I'm going to turn Nezuko
    back into a human!
[16:10] ---
    I swear I'll heal her!
[16:12] ---
    She can't be healed.
[16:14] ---
    Once you become a demon,
    you can never go back to being a human.
[16:18] ---
    I'll find a way no matter what!
    So, please...
[16:22] ---
    So, please don't kill her!
[16:24] ---
    I'll hunt down the one
    who slaughtered my family!
[16:27] ---
    I'll make everything all right!
[16:29] ---
    Please!
[16:31] ---
    Please!
[16:32] ---
    Don't do it!
[16:35] ---
    Don't take anyone else from me.
[16:40] ---
    I'm begging you not to...
[16:42] ---
    Please!
[16:43] ---
    Don't kill my little sister!
[16:47] ---
    Please don't do it!
[16:50] ---
    I'm begging you...
[17:00] ---
    Don't ever give others
    a chance to murder you!
[17:05] ---
    Stop that pathetic groveling!
[17:07] ---
    If it was the least bit effective,
    your family wouldn't be dead!
[17:12] ---
    How can a weakling who can't
    take the initiative in such a situation
[17:16] ---
    heal his sister?
[17:17] ---
    Hunt down the enemy?
[17:19] ---
    Don't make me laugh!
[17:21] ---
    The weak have no rights or choices!
[17:25] ---
    Their only fate is to be relentlessly
    crushed by the strong!
[17:29] ---
    The demons might know
    how to cure your sister!
[17:33] ---
    But don't think that a demon
    would respect your will or wishes!
[17:38] ---
    Naturally, I have no respect
    for you, either!
[17:41] ---
    That's reality!
[17:43] ---
    Why did you throw yourself
    over your sister earlier?
[17:46] ---
    Was that your way of protecting her?
[17:48] ---
    Why didn't you swing your hatchet?
[17:50] ---
    Why did you show your back to me?
[17:52] ---
    All those blunders led
    to your sister's capture!
[17:55] ---
    I could've skewered her along with you!
[18:02] ---
    Don't cry.
[18:03] ---
    Don't despair.
[18:05] ---
    Now's not the time for that.
[18:08] ---
    I know you're devastated.
[18:12] ---
    Your family was massacred,
    and your sister's become a demon.
[18:15] ---
    I know it's painful.
[18:17] ---
    I know you want to scream.
[18:20] ---
    I get it.
[18:22] ---
    If only I'd gotten here a half-day sooner,
[18:25] ---
    your family might not have ended up dead.
[18:28] ---
    But there's no way to turn back time.
[18:33] ---
    Feel the rage.
[18:35] ---
    The powerful, pure rage
    of not being able to forgive...
[18:37] ---
    ...will become your unswerving
    drive to take action!
[18:41] ---
    With such a fragile resolve like yours,
[18:44] ---
    you can't protect
    your sister or heal her...
[18:47] ---
    ...or get revenge for your family!
[18:50] ---
    No!
[18:53] ---
    Stop!
[19:09] ---
    A straightforward attack
    driven solely by emotion...
[19:12] ---
    You fool!
[19:28] ---
    Where's his hatchet?
[19:39] ---
    Just before he hid behind the tree,
[19:42] ---
    he hurled that rock toward me
    and, at the same time,
[19:45] ---
    tossed the hatchet in the air.
[19:48] ---
    He hid his hands
    as he pretended to attack
[19:51] ---
    so I wouldn't realize he was unarmed.
[19:55] ---
    He knew he couldn't beat me.
[19:58] ---
    He tried to bring me down
    after I struck him!
[20:03] ---
    This kid...
[20:09] ---
    Damn!
[20:10] ---
    She'll devour him!
[20:16] ---
    Nezuko...
[20:21] ---
    It wasn't Nezuko!
[20:25] ---
    She'd never eat humans!
[20:31] ---
    Long ago,
[20:32] ---
    someone once said the same thing,
    only to be devoured by a demon.
[20:37] ---
    When a demon is starving,
[20:39] ---
    it will kill and devour
    even its own parents or siblings.
[20:42] ---
    Because they're nutrient-rich.
[20:45] ---
    I've seen it happen
    more times than I can count.
[20:49] ---
    This girl has been wounded,
[20:52] ---
    and she's expending energy
    to heal those injuries.
[20:56] ---
    She must've drained vast amounts of her
    strength as she transformed into a demon.
[21:00] ---
    That means she's severely starved
    at this moment, without a doubt.
[21:05] ---
    She must've wanted to feast
    on a human right away.
[21:10] ---
    Yet, she protected him instead
[21:12] ---
    by intimidating me.
[21:16] ---
    I wonder...
[21:18] ---
    These siblings might be...
[21:20] ---
    ...different from others.
[21:39] ---
    I'm sorry to leave you behind, Tanjiro.
[21:44] ---
    Take care of Nezuko for me, all right?
[21:58] ---
    You awake?
[22:02] ---
    Go see an old man named Sakonji Urokodaki
    who lives at the foot of Mt. Sagiri.
[22:09] ---
    Tell him that Giyu Tomioka sent you.
[22:13] ---
    She seems to be all right
    since it's cloudy now,
[22:17] ---
    but never let her be exposed
    to the sunlight.
[22:37] ---
    Let's go.
[23:30] ---
    Excuse me.
[23:31] ---
    Would it be okay if I took
    that basket, straw and some bamboo?
[23:36] ---
    Sure, you're welcome to it,
[23:38] ---
    but that basket's full of holes.
[23:41] ---
    And of course I'll pay for them.
[23:43] ---
    No, that's all right.
    I mean, it's a basket with holes.
[23:46] ---
    Please, I insist!
[23:48] ---
    No, it's all right. You can have
    the bamboo and straw for free, too.
[23:52] ---
    But I'm still paying you!
[23:53] ---
    I said it's okay!
    You're one stubborn kid!
[23:58] ---
    Please accept this,
    although it's just small change!
[24:01] ---
    Thank you very much!
[24:03] ---
    Ouch!
[24:08] ---
    Nezuko?
[24:10] ---
    Huh? Nezuko?
[24:12] ---
    She's gone!
[24:16] ---
    There she is.
[24:21] ---
    Nezuko...
[24:24] ---
    She dug a hole?
[24:26] ---
    My kid sister's turned into a mole.
[24:33] ---
    And she's frowning!
[24:36] ---
    She must really want
    to avoid the sunlight.
[24:40] ---
    Wait there for a second!
[24:45] ---
    Nezuko?
[24:46] ---
    Nezuko?
[24:48] ---
    Think you can fit inside this?
[24:50] ---
    I want to keep moving
    during the day, too.
[24:53] ---
    I'll carry you, okay?
[24:57] ---
    Can you fit?
[24:58] ---
    In here?
[24:59] ---
    Basket?
[25:08] ---
    You're too big, huh?
[25:11] ---
    Nezuko has grown so much.
[25:14] ---
    Seems like yesterday
    she was a little girl.
[25:19] ---
    Nezuko?
[25:20] ---
    Remember how you became big
    like an adult the other day?
[25:24] ---
    Do you think you can do
    the opposite? Get smaller?
[25:27] ---
    Smaller, Nezuko!
[25:29] ---
    Get smaller!
[25:42] ---
    Good job!
[25:43] ---
    That's a good girl, Nezuko!
[25:45] ---
    I'm impressed!
[25:50] ---
    Mt. Sagiri?
[25:52] ---
    If you want to go to Mt. Sagiri,
[25:54] ---
    you'll have to cross over
    that mountain, but...
[25:57] ---
    The sun's about to set. Are you really
    heading there with all that luggage?
[26:01] ---
    It's dangerous, you know.
[26:04] ---
    I'll be careful.
[26:06] ---
    Thank you very much.
[26:11] ---
    People have gone missing lately!
[26:14] ---
    Try not to lose your way!
[26:25] ---
    There's a temple over there.
[26:28] ---
    There's light leaking through,
    so someone must be there.
[26:31] ---
    Let's check it out.
[26:37] ---
    I smell blood!
[26:39] ---
    This mountain path is pretty rough!
    Someone must've gotten hurt!
[26:50] ---
    Are you all right?
[26:59] ---
    What the hell?
[27:01] ---
    This is my turf.
[27:05] ---
    If you break into my territory,
[27:07] ---
    I'll make you pay!
[27:10] ---
    It's a man-eating demon!
[27:24] ---
    There's something off about you.
[27:28] ---
    Are you both humans?
[27:47] ---
    A hatchet, huh? Not bad.
[27:50] ---
    But a scratch like this...
[27:52] ---
    ...should heal in no time.
[27:57] ---
    See that? The bleeding's stopped already.
[28:17] ---
    He's so fast!
    And he's unbelievably strong!
[28:21] ---
    You won't get me twice!
[28:24] ---
    All right!
[28:25] ---
    I'm gonna snap your neck!
[28:50] ---
    Sh-She killed him!
[28:53] ---
    Oh, but wait! He's a demon, so...
[28:56] ---
    N-Nezuko...
[29:03] ---
    I don't believe this!
[29:05] ---
    Did he just move without his head?
[29:08] ---
    You bastards!
[29:11] ---
    One of you is a demon after all?
    Something didn't seem right!
[29:16] ---
    What's a human and a demon
    doing teaming up?
[29:19] ---
    He's actually talking!
[29:29] ---
    Stop it!
[29:39] ---
    Nezuko!
[29:48] ---
    Nezuko!
[29:55] ---
    What's the deal with this guy?
[29:57] ---
    Growing arms from his head!
[30:00] ---
    I gotta save Nezuko!
[30:04] ---
    Out of my way!
[30:10] ---
    Hard as a rock!
[30:13] ---
    That head of his...
[30:15] ---
    Like a rock!
[30:26] ---
    Okay!
[30:28] ---
    I wrapped my hair around his hatchet
    to grab it, but it backfired! Dammit!
[30:35] ---
    Nezuko! Where are you?
[30:51] ---
    Nezuko!
[30:52] ---
    Stop it!
[31:19] ---
    I wonder if there are
    a ton of demons out there.
[31:23] ---
    This isn't the scent
    that was lingering in my house.
[31:26] ---
    That was a different demon...
[31:28] ---
    But...
[31:30] ---
    I gotta finish him off...
[31:32] ---
    ...or he'll attack more people!
[31:34] ---
    So...
[31:36] ---
    I gotta do it!
[31:44] ---
    Do it!
[31:54] ---
    You can't finish him off with that.
[32:00] ---
    A tengu mask!
[32:02] ---
    I didn't hear his footsteps!
[32:05] ---
    H-How can I finish him off?
[32:09] ---
    Don't ask others!
[32:11] ---
    Can't you use your own head
    to figure that out?
[32:17] ---
    If stabbing's no good,
[32:20] ---
    I'll have to crush his head!
[32:30] ---
    To crush his skull
    and smash it completely,
[32:33] ---
    I guess I'm going to have to pound him
    with this rock many times.
[32:37] ---
    I bet he's going to suffer.
[32:39] ---
    Isn't there anything I can use
    to kill him with one blow?
[32:48] ---
    This kid isn't going to cut it.
[32:51] ---
    He's too kind and can't make decisions.
[32:56] ---
    He's facing a demon,
    yet the scent of kindness remains.
[33:00] ---
    He has empathy for even a demon.
[33:05] ---
    Giyu...
[33:07] ---
    He's never going to make it.
[33:15] ---
    I blacked out.
[33:18] ---
    Is my body dead, then? I feel sick!
[33:25] ---
    You bastard, I'll kill you!
    I swear I'll devour you!
[33:28] ---
    Get over here! Dammit!
[33:30] ---
    I can't go to you, so you come to me!
[33:33] ---
    --I faltered too long.
    Now the sun's coming up!
    --Hey, are you listening, brat?
    Hey, come here, you!
[33:38] ---
    Are you listening, you brat?
[33:52] ---
    This is what happens
    with that much sunlight?
[33:55] ---
    No wonder Nezuko shrinks from it!
[34:00] ---
    Nezuko?
[34:01] ---
    Nezuko?
[34:17] ---
    Nezuko...
[34:21] ---
    O-Oh, that's right.
[34:24] ---
    Where's that man?
[34:34] ---
    He buried the people who got killed.
[34:43] ---
    Um...
[34:46] ---
    I'm Sakonji Urokodaki.
[34:50] ---
    I'm assuming you're the one
    Giyu Tomioka sent my way.
[34:54] ---
    Yes! My name is Tanjiro Kamado!
[34:57] ---
    My sister's name is Nezuko, and...
[34:59] ---
    Tanjiro...
[35:01] ---
    What will you do
    when your sister devours a human?
[35:15] ---
    Too slow!
[35:18] ---
    You're just too slow
    at making decisions!
[35:21] ---
    You failed to finish off that demon
    before daybreak!
[35:25] ---
    Do you know why you couldn't answer
    my question right away?
[35:30] ---
    It's because your resolve is too weak!
[35:33] ---
    There are two things to do
    if your sister devours a human.
[35:37] ---
    Kill your sister!
    And slit your own belly and die!
[35:41] ---
    That's what it means to travel
    with your sister who's become a demon!
[35:46] ---
    But that must never happen no matter
    what. And you'd best not forget.
[35:52] ---
    Your sister, taking the life
    of an innocent person...
[35:55] ---
    That's the one thing
    that must never happen. Ever!
[35:59] ---
    Do you understand what I'm saying?
[36:02] ---
    Yes!
[36:04] ---
    Then, I'm going to test you...
[36:06] ---
    ...to see if you're fit to become
    a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.
[36:11] ---
    Carry your sister on your back
    and follow me!
[36:24] ---
    He's so fast! Just how old is he anyway?
    And, like earlier,
[36:28] ---
    I'm not hearing any footsteps at all!
[36:32] ---
    Nezuko, I know it must be jarring,
    but hang on!
[36:38] ---
    Well, enduring is all that
    you've ever known.
[36:41] ---
    Nezuko...
[36:42] ---
    All your life...
[36:45] ---
    You're fixing your kimono again?
[36:47] ---
    I guess we'll have to buy you a new one.
[36:50] ---
    No, no, it's all right!
[36:53] ---
    This kimono's my favorite!
[36:55] ---
    I'd rather have our little siblings
    have more to eat!
[37:02] ---
    I swear I'll turn you back into a human!
[37:05] ---
    I swear I'll buy you
    a beautiful kimono someday!
[37:09] ---
    Everything that I couldn't do
    for the others...
[37:12] ---
    ...I'll do it all for you!
[37:20] ---
    N-Now, have I...
[37:24] ---
    ...passed the test?
[37:34] ---
    The test starts now.
[37:37] ---
    We're going to climb a mountain.
[37:43] ---
    I'll make sure to take care
    of your sister for you.
[37:49] ---
    Thank you.
[38:03] ---
    I'm so exhausted.
[38:05] ---
    My legs are starting to buckle!
[38:09] ---
    I'm starting to feel dizzy, too.
[38:15] ---
    Now, from here, go back down to the house
    at the foot of the mountain.
[38:20] ---
    This time, I'm not going to wait
    until daybreak!
[38:27] ---
    Is that all?
[38:31] ---
    I see.
[38:33] ---
    He thinks I might get lost
    in this thick fog.
[38:37] ---
    I just have to get back
    by daybreak, right?
[38:40] ---
    That's easy!
[38:41] ---
    I have a sharp nose!
[38:43] ---
    I've already memorized Urokodaki's scent!
[38:57] ---
    Rocks?
[39:10] ---
    A covered pit?
[39:13] ---
    I get it now.
[39:15] ---
    So, there are traps all around!
[39:18] ---
    That's the deal, huh?
[39:21] ---
    Uh-oh!
[39:29] ---
    Crap, crap, crap!
[39:31] ---
    If I keep walking into traps like this,
[39:33] ---
    I won't make it down the mountain
    by morning!
[39:35] ---
    And besides, this mountain...
[39:38] ---
    This mountain is...
[39:40] ---
    The air's thin here!
[39:43] ---
    It's way thinner here than on
    the mountain where I used to live!
[39:47] ---
    That's why I'm gasping for air
    like this and feel so dizzy!
[39:52] ---
    Will I make it back?
[39:54] ---
    I might pass out!
[39:56] ---
    No!
[39:57] ---
    I gotta make it back!
[39:59] ---
    Get your breathing under control...
[40:01] ---
    ...and sniff out each of those traps!
[40:29] ---
    Right! I've got it! I've got it!
[40:32] ---
    Traps set by human hands...
[40:34] ---
    ...have a slightly different
    smell after all!
[40:43] ---
    But that doesn't mean...
[40:46] ---
    ...it'll grant me the athletic ability...
[40:48] ---
    ...to dodge every one of them!
[40:53] ---
    I'm gonna make it back
    no matter what!
[40:56] ---
    Nezuko!
[41:27] ---
    I... have... returned.
[41:34] ---
    Forgive my abruptness,
    Lord Sakonji Urokodaki.
[41:39] ---
    I'm sending a boy your way who wants
    to become a Demon Slayer swordsman.
[41:45] ---
    He was brazen enough
    to attack me unarmed.
[41:50] ---
    His family was slaughtered by a demon,
[41:52] ---
    and the surviving younger sister
    has become one,
[41:56] ---
    but I have determined
    that she will not attack humans.
[42:00] ---
    I can sense something different
    about these two.
[42:06] ---
    Like yourself, the boy seems
    to have a keen sense of smell.
[42:11] ---
    Perhaps, he'll find a way to break through
    and become your heir apparent.
[42:17] ---
    I am asking you to train him.
[42:22] ---
    I realize that this is
    a self-serving request,
[42:25] ---
    but please forgive me.
[42:28] ---
    I hope that you will take good care
    of yourself in your endeavors.
[42:36] ---
    Yours truly...
[42:38] ---
    Giyu Tomioka.
[42:58] ---
    I accept you as my student,
[43:00] ---
    Tanjiro Kamado.
[43:16] ---
    "DESTROY"
    
    
[43:17] ---
    "DESTROY"
    The Demon Slayer Corps has
    around several hundred members.
[43:22] ---
    It's an organization
    unrecognized by the government.
[43:27] ---
    Yet it's existed since ancient times,
    and we continue to hunt demons today.
[43:33] ---
    But as for who's leading
    the Demon Slayer Corps,
[43:37] ---
    that remains a mystery.
[43:40] ---
    Demons.
[43:42] ---
    Staple food... Humans!
[43:45] ---
    They kill humans and feed on them.
[43:47] ---
    No one knows when and where
    they first appeared.
[43:51] ---
    Their physical prowess is remarkable.
    Wounds heal in the blink of an eye.
[43:56] ---
    Flesh is restored after being hacked off,
[43:58] ---
    and limbs can be newly regenerated.
[44:02] ---
    Some demons can shape-shift.
    Others have otherworldly powers.
[44:06] ---
    They can only be killed by sunlight
    or by decapitation with a special sword.
[44:13] ---
    The Demon Slayers battle the demons
    with their own mortal bodies.
[44:17] ---
    Since they're human,
    their wounds are slow to heal,
[44:21] ---
    and, once lost,
    their limbs don't grow back!
[44:24] ---
    Even so, they battle the demons...
[44:27] ---
    ...to protect other humans.
[44:42] ---
    "JOURNAL
    Tanjiro Kamado"
[45:01] ---
    Let's go.
[45:12] ---
    I am a trainer.
[45:15] ---
    I literally train swordsmen.
[45:18] ---
    There are many trainers,
[45:20] ---
    and each of them trains their pupils
    with their own regimen at their location.
[45:26] ---
    To join the Demon Slayer Corps,
[45:28] ---
    you must survive
    the Final Selection at Mt. Fujikasane.
[45:34] ---
    I will decide whether or not
    you're eligible for Final Selection.
[45:40] ---
    Starting today, I'm going to keep
    a journal for Nezuko.
[45:45] ---
    I'm descending the mountain again today.
[45:47] ---
    I'm going to train my hardest
    so I won't die during Final Selection.
[45:55] ---
    After repeatedly descending
    the mountain, day after day,
[45:58] ---
    I'm starting to learn
    how to avoid most of the traps.
[46:02] ---
    It's because I'm much stronger now,
[46:04] ---
    and because I'm even more adept
    at detecting scents than before.
[46:11] ---
    Even so...
[46:14] ---
    ...the traps are getting
    more and more difficult.
[46:18] ---
    As if he's actually trying to kill me.
[46:33] ---
    I made my descent today,
    sword in hand,
[46:36] ---
    but the sword really hampered
    my movement.
[46:42] ---
    With the sword,
[46:44] ---
    I can't stop getting ensnared
    in all the traps!
[46:48] ---
    991!
[46:49] ---
    I swung the sword today.
[46:52] ---
    Well, it's not just today. I've been
    swinging the sword every single day.
[46:55] ---
    After descending the mountain, I swing
    my sword until my arms nearly fall off.
[46:59] ---
    1,000!
[47:01] ---
    500 more!
[47:18] ---
    Swords break easily.
[47:21] ---
    That's what he told me first.
[47:24] ---
    Though it's strong vertically,
    it's weak horizontally, so...
[47:30] ---
    ...you need to apply the force
    straight along the blade.
[47:35] ---
    The blade's direction and the direction
    in which you apply the force
[47:39] ---
    must be exactly the same.
[47:42] ---
    And he added, "If you ever damage
    the blade, in other words, break it,
[47:47] ---
    I'll snap your bones, as well"
    in a threatening tone of voice.
[47:55] ---
    Nezuko...
[47:57] ---
    I'll keep working hard, okay?
[48:15] ---
    Today, I did nothing but fall.
[48:18] ---
    Training to break my fall
    and get up quickly from any position.
[48:24] ---
    I wield my sword,
[48:26] ---
    and I charge Urokodaki
    really trying to kill him.
[48:29] ---
    In contrast,
[48:30] ---
    Urokodaki is bare-handed and unarmed.
[48:36] ---
    But he's ridiculously powerful!
[48:38] ---
    He flings me away
    to roll on the ground every time.
[48:47] ---
    I'm home, Nezuko.
[48:59] ---
    Today, I learned breathing
    techniques and some forms.
[49:04] ---
    Total Concentration Breathing?
[49:07] ---
    That's right.
[49:08] ---
    And I'm going to teach you
    all ten of the Water Breathing forms.
[49:14] ---
    Remember to take a long breath so the
    oxygen flows into every cell in your body.
[49:20] ---
    This will enhance
    your body's natural healing power,
[49:23] ---
    and both stabilize
    and energize your spirit.
[49:27] ---
    Relax your upper body...
[49:30] ---
    ...while bracing your lower half.
[49:33] ---
    All right, breathe!
[49:40] ---
    Wrong!
[49:43] ---
    Next! Forms!
[49:45] ---
    Right! Like this?
[49:47] ---
    Wrong!
[49:48] ---
    Like this?
[49:49] ---
    Wrong!
[49:50] ---
    --This?
    --Wrong!
[49:52] ---
    --This?
    --Wrong!
[49:54] ---
    I get yelled at
    for not bracing my stomach...
[49:57] ---
    ...and clobbered to a pulp.
[50:00] ---
    Next, he told me
    to become one with the water.
[50:04] ---
    Get in there!
[50:11] ---
    Nezuko!
[50:20] ---
    Nezuko! I am water!
[50:27] ---
    And now it's been six months
    since you were last awake, Nezuko.
[50:33] ---
    Urokodaki summoned the doctor
    right away and had him examine you,
[50:37] ---
    but he found nothing wrong.
[50:39] ---
    But it's not normal for you
    to stay asleep like this.
[50:48] ---
    I was scared.
[50:50] ---
    I worry that one morning,
[50:52] ---
    I'll wake up to find you dead.
[50:56] ---
    Not a day goes by that I don't worry.
[51:08] ---
    My descents are getting more dangerous,
[51:10] ---
    and the air's even thinner where I train.
[51:20] ---
    Time and time again,
    I think I might die.
[51:40] ---
    I have nothing more to teach you.
[51:44] ---
    A year after I arrived at Mt. Sagiri,
[51:46] ---
    he told me all of a sudden...
[51:50] ---
    The rest is up to you!
[51:52] ---
    Whether or not you can improve
    to the next level.
[52:00] ---
    Come with me!
[52:20] ---
    If you can slice this boulder,
    I will allow you to enter Final Selection.
[52:30] ---
    Is a boulder...
[52:32] ---
    ...something you slice?
[52:35] ---
    Something you can slice with a sword?
[52:38] ---
    I don't think I can do it.
[52:40] ---
    My sword will snap!
[52:47] ---
    Urokodaki, please wait!
[52:50] ---
    Urokodaki!
[52:53] ---
    After that, Urokodaki never
    taught me anything again.
[53:25] ---
    Every day,
[53:26] ---
    I practiced over and over
    what I'd learned from Urokodaki.
[53:36] ---
    All the basics like
    holding my breath and flexibility...
[53:38] ---
    I was glad I'd written
    it all down in my journal.
[53:52] ---
    But...
[53:54] ---
    ...even after six months had passed,
    I still couldn't slice the boulder.
[53:58] ---
    I felt frustrated.
[54:00] ---
    Not enough!
[54:01] ---
    I wasn't training hard enough!
[54:03] ---
    I gotta do more!
[54:05] ---
    More!
[54:14] ---
    Am I...
[54:15] ---
    ...no good?
[54:18] ---
    Is Nezuko going to die
    without ever waking up?
[54:22] ---
    I'm losing hope! I'm breaking down!
[54:26] ---
    Keep working, Tanjiro! You can do it!
[54:30] ---
    Silence!
[54:37] ---
    A man shouldn't whine.
    It's unseemly.
[54:40] ---
    When did he show up?
[54:42] ---
    There's no scent. A fox mask?
[54:45] ---
    No matter how you suffer,
    bear it in silence...
[54:49] ---
    ...if you're a man.
[54:53] ---
    If you call yourself a man.
[55:03] ---
    Slow.
[55:05] ---
    Weak.
[55:06] ---
    Immature.
[55:09] ---
    That's not what you call a man.
[55:18] ---
    What are you doing?
[55:20] ---
    I'd like to know
    what you think you're doing.
[55:24] ---
    What do you mean?
[55:25] ---
    I'm training.
[55:26] ---
    How long do you plan to
    keep your butt on the ground
[55:30] ---
    without even taking a stance?
[55:35] ---
    Come on. Come at me.
[55:38] ---
    But you have a wooden sword,
    and I have a real sword!
[55:57] ---
    Well, well! Thank you
    for worrying about me.
[56:02] ---
    So, you think you can hurt me?
[56:09] ---
    Well, you have absolutely
    nothing to worry about!
[56:12] ---
    I'm more powerful than you...
[56:14] ---
    ...because I've sliced that boulder!
[56:16] ---
    He's sliced that boulder?
[56:35] ---
    You've learned nothing!
[56:38] ---
    You haven't mastered a single thing!
[56:41] ---
    Certainly not the breathing technique
    Urokodaki taught you...
[56:45] ---
    Total Concentration Breathing.
[56:48] ---
    He knows Urokodaki?
[56:51] ---
    And the breathing technique, too?
[56:53] ---
    All you did was memorize it as fact.
[56:57] ---
    Your body has no clue
    what it needs to do.
[57:01] ---
    What the hell were you doing
    for a whole year and a half?
[57:07] ---
    Hammer it into your flesh!
[57:10] ---
    More!
[57:12] ---
    More!
[57:13] ---
    More!
[57:14] ---
    So that you'll never forget
    the secrets Urokodaki taught you!
[57:19] ---
    Pound it into the marrow of your bones!
[57:22] ---
    I'm trying!
[57:24] ---
    I'm trying every single day!
    With everything I've got!
[57:27] ---
    But I'm not making any headway!
[57:30] ---
    I just can't go any further!
[57:34] ---
    Go further!
[57:35] ---
    If you're a man!
[57:36] ---
    If you call yourself a man!
[57:39] ---
    There's no other way to go but forward!
[57:41] ---
    Bring it on!
[57:42] ---
    Show me what you're capable of!
[58:02] ---
    I'm leaving the rest to you.
[58:17] ---
    Are you all right?
[58:21] ---
    Did you see that just now?
[58:24] ---
    What a strike that was!
[58:26] ---
    Not a single bit of wasted motion!
[58:28] ---
    It was really beautiful!
[58:30] ---
    I want to become like that!
    You think I can become like him?
[58:37] ---
    I'm sure you can...
[58:39] ---
    ...since I'll be looking after you.
[58:46] ---
    She's so cute.
[58:48] ---
    Who are you?
[58:52] ---
    This girl's name was Makomo.
[58:56] ---
    She told me the boy's name was Sabito.
[59:00] ---
    Makomo also pointed out my defects.
[59:05] ---
    She corrected my unnecessary
    movements and bad habits.
[59:11] ---
    But when I asked her
    why she was doing that,
[59:13] ---
    and where she came from,
    she didn't tell me anything.
[59:18] ---
    We love Urokodaki very much.
[59:23] ---
    That was Makomo's catchphrase.
[59:27] ---
    She and Sabito weren't siblings.
[59:29] ---
    She said Urokodaki raised them
    after they'd been orphaned.
[59:33] ---
    There are other children besides us.
[59:37] ---
    They're always watching you, Tanjiro.
[59:41] ---
    Makomo is a somewhat strange girl.
[59:45] ---
    She speaks in such an abstract,
    dreamy way.
[59:48] ---
    See, Total Concentration Breathing
    accelerates your blood circulation
[59:53] ---
    and your heart rate.
[59:56] ---
    That causes
    your body temperature to spike,
[59:59] ---
    making you as strong as a demon
    while being human.
[1:00:03] ---
    The important thing
    is to expand your lung capacity.
[1:00:07] ---
    When you bring lots of air
    into your blood,
[1:00:11] ---
    and when your blood gets excited,
[1:00:13] ---
    your bones and muscles scurry
    to heat up and grow stronger.
[1:00:18] ---
    I'm not sure I get that.
[1:00:21] ---
    How can I do that?
[1:00:27] ---
    Train to death.
[1:00:29] ---
    At the end of the day,
    there's nothing else you can do.
[1:00:36] ---
    Until my arms and legs
    were ready to fall off...
[1:00:40] ---
    Until my lungs and heart
    were ready to burst,
[1:00:43] ---
    I swung my sword.
[1:00:45] ---
    But still...
[1:00:48] ---
    I just couldn't beat Sabito.
[1:00:52] ---
    Not until six months later.
[1:01:04] ---
    When I challenged him that day,
[1:01:07] ---
    Sabito was wielding a real sword.
[1:01:10] ---
    After six months, finally,
[1:01:13] ---
    you have the look of a man.
[1:01:23] ---
    Today's the day I win!
[1:01:32] ---
    Head-on battles are simple.
[1:01:35] ---
    Whoever's stronger and faster wins.
[1:01:52] ---
    The battle was over in an instant.
[1:01:55] ---
    On this day, in this moment,
    for the first time,
[1:01:58] ---
    my blade reached Sabito first.
[1:02:12] ---
    The moment I won,
[1:02:15] ---
    Sabito smiled.
[1:02:17] ---
    He looked sad and happy.
[1:02:21] ---
    A relieved kind of smile.
[1:02:25] ---
    Tanjiro...
[1:02:27] ---
    You did great.
    Don't forget what you just did.
[1:02:33] ---
    Win, okay, Tanjiro?
[1:02:35] ---
    Beat that guy, too.
[1:02:44] ---
    The next thing I knew,
[1:02:45] ---
    Sabito was gone.
[1:02:50] ---
    And my sword, which I was sure
    had slashed Sabito's mask...
[1:03:00] ---
    ...had sliced the boulder.
[1:03:17] ---
    The reason I won...
[1:03:20] ---
    ...was because I learned
    to smell out the Opening Thread.
[1:03:26] ---
    When I'm battling someone,
[1:03:28] ---
    and I pick up this scent,
    then I can see the thread.
[1:03:35] ---
    The thread is connected from my blade
    to my opponent's opening,
[1:03:38] ---
    growing taut the instant I see it.
[1:03:48] ---
    My blade is drawn
    toward it with great force,
[1:03:51] ---
    and then I slash the opening.
[1:04:14] ---
    Urokodaki...
[1:04:18] ---
    I had no intention of sending you
    to Final Selection.
[1:04:26] ---
    I didn't want to see another child die.
[1:04:30] ---
    I was sure you wouldn't be able
    to slice this boulder, but...
[1:04:39] ---
    Well done!
[1:04:42] ---
    Tanjiro, you're...
[1:04:45] ---
    ...a remarkable child!
[1:04:54] ---
    Make sure you come back alive
    from Final Selection.
[1:04:58] ---
    Your sister and I
    will be waiting for you here.
[1:05:14] ---
    What's the occasion? There's so much.
[1:05:17] ---
    You've completed all your training,
    so we're celebrating.
[1:05:20] ---
    Don't be shy. Eat up.
[1:05:23] ---
    Thank you very much!
[1:05:30] ---
    Tanjiro,
[1:05:32] ---
    there's nothing more I can do for you.
[1:05:35] ---
    From here on out, you'll be going
    through such hardship and strife.
[1:05:40] ---
    Your training will seem like nothing
    in comparison.
[1:05:43] ---
    So, for now, at least,
[1:05:46] ---
    you should rest well
    without a care in the world.
[1:06:05] ---
    Hey, Tanjiro...
[1:06:09] ---
    Yes?
[1:06:11] ---
    Did you enjoy that hot pot?
[1:06:13] ---
    Yes! I haven't had
    such a feast in so long!
[1:06:18] ---
    A growing boy like you
    with a hearty appetite
[1:06:20] ---
    should get stronger the more he eats,
[1:06:22] ---
    as well as grow bigger in size.
[1:06:24] ---
    But that goes for demons, too.
[1:06:28] ---
    Remember this.
[1:06:29] ---
    Basically, a demon is as strong
    as the number of humans he's devoured.
[1:06:34] ---
    So, the more they eat,
    the stronger they get?
[1:06:38] ---
    That's right.
[1:06:40] ---
    There are demons who grow stronger,
    transform themselves
[1:06:43] ---
    and even gain strange powers.
[1:06:51] ---
    When your sense of smell
    becomes keener,
[1:06:55] ---
    you'll be able to tell how many humans
    a demon's consumed.
[1:07:01] ---
    What's this?
[1:07:03] ---
    It's called a "warding mask."
[1:07:05] ---
    I've charged it with a spell
    to protect you from harm.
[1:07:11] ---
    Warding mask...
[1:07:43] ---
    Nezuko...
[1:07:51] ---
    I'm coming back here
    no matter what, all right?
[1:07:57] ---
    Don't worry about your sister.
[1:07:59] ---
    I'll take good care of her.
[1:08:02] ---
    All right! Thank you very much!
[1:08:07] ---
    I'll be going, then, Urokodaki!
[1:08:15] ---
    Tell Sabito and Makomo thanks!
[1:08:20] ---
    Tanjiro...
[1:08:21] ---
    How do you...
[1:08:24] ---
    ...know the names of those dead children?
[1:08:38] ---
    Wow.
[1:08:39] ---
    Look at all these wisteria flowers.
[1:08:42] ---
    Even though they're out of season...
[1:09:16] ---
    There are so many.
[1:09:20] ---
    --Everyone...
    --Everyone...
[1:09:21] ---
    --...we thank you for coming
    here tonight.
    --...we thank you for coming
    here tonight.
[1:09:26] ---
    --To the Demon Slayer Corps
    Final Selection.
    --To the Demon Slayer Corps
    Final Selection.
[1:09:29] ---
    There are demons imprisoned
    here on Mt. Fujikasane,
[1:09:33] ---
    captured alive
    by the Demon Slayer swordsmen,
[1:09:36] ---
    and unable to leave.
[1:09:39] ---
    That is because wisteria,
    which demons hate so much,
[1:09:44] ---
    blooms even out of season from
    the bottom to halfway up the mountain.
[1:09:48] ---
    However, there is no wisteria
    from this point on,
[1:09:53] ---
    and so demons abound.
[1:09:55] ---
    You'll need to survive here
[1:09:58] ---
    for seven days to pass Final Selection.
[1:10:04] ---
    --And now, be on your way.
    --And now, be on your way.
[1:10:31] ---
    Survive for seven days...
    That's all I'm going to think about.
[1:10:38] ---
    First, I'm going to survive tonight.
[1:10:41] ---
    Once the sun comes up,
    the demons won't be able to do anything,
[1:10:44] ---
    so I can get some rest then.
[1:10:47] ---
    So, I'll have to head east!
[1:10:49] ---
    I'm gonna make my way
    to where the sunlight will hit first!
[1:10:57] ---
    This smell... It's a demon!
[1:10:59] ---
    And it's nearby!
[1:11:09] ---
    Where is it?
[1:11:10] ---
    Where's it coming from?
[1:11:12] ---
    I can't pinpoint
    the direction of the scent!
[1:11:15] ---
    From above?
[1:11:26] ---
    Demon...
[1:11:33] ---
    Damn you!
[1:11:36] ---
    Don't even try to grab my prey, man!
[1:11:39] ---
    Get off my turf, dammit!
[1:11:40] ---
    The hell with you! Just beat it!
[1:11:43] ---
    Two of them right from the get-go?
    I wonder if I can take them!
[1:11:46] ---
    That's my prey, you know!
[1:11:48] ---
    Shut up!
[1:11:49] ---
    It's first come, first served!
[1:11:58] ---
    I'm okay! Just calm down
    and watch their movements!
[1:12:01] ---
    Remember the training!
[1:12:03] ---
    It's been ages
    since I last had human flesh!
[1:12:06] ---
    Total Concentration!
[1:12:07] ---
    Water Breathing!
[1:12:14] ---
    The scent of the thread!
[1:12:19] ---
    Fourth Form!
[1:12:21] ---
    Striking Tide!
[1:12:32] ---
    I did it!
[1:12:36] ---
    I defeated demons!
[1:12:38] ---
    I've grown stronger!
[1:12:40] ---
    All that training wasn't for nothing!
[1:12:43] ---
    I've mastered it!
[1:12:52] ---
    When I slash a demon
    with the sword Urokodaki gave me,
[1:12:56] ---
    not even the bones are left behind, huh?
[1:13:01] ---
    A demon's weak spot is its neck!
[1:13:03] ---
    But you can't kill it with a normal sword
    even if you slash its neck.
[1:13:09] ---
    Then, how can I take it down?
[1:13:12] ---
    The swords wielded
    by the Demon Slayer Corps...
[1:13:14] ---
    ...are forged with a special steel.
[1:13:16] ---
    That's the only way to kill a demon.
[1:13:20] ---
    They're called the "Nichirin Swords."
[1:13:31] ---
    Rest in peace.
[1:13:38] ---
    What's this rotten smell?
[1:13:42] ---
    No one ever told me!
    I never signed up for this!
[1:13:46] ---
    What's going on?
[1:14:00] ---
    What the hell is that?
[1:14:17] ---
    Hey, Sabito...
[1:14:20] ---
    Do you think Tanjiro can beat that one?
[1:14:25] ---
    I don't know.
[1:14:27] ---
    No matter how hard you try,
    it's never enough.
[1:14:31] ---
    You know that well yourself, don't you?
[1:14:40] ---
    What's this morphed demon
    doing here anyway? They didn't tell us!
[1:15:03] ---
    He got eaten!
[1:15:30] ---
    Stay strong!
[1:15:31] ---
    Save him! Save him! Save him!
[1:15:34] ---
    I'm not powerless anymore!
[1:15:36] ---
    Move!
[1:15:39] ---
    Water Breathing, Second Form!
[1:15:41] ---
    Water Wheel!
[1:15:52] ---
    Another sweet little fox has come to me.
[1:15:57] ---
    "Another"?
[1:15:59] ---
    Little fox cub,
    what year of Meiji is it now?
[1:16:04] ---
    It's the Taisho Period now!
[1:16:07] ---
    Taisho?
[1:16:14] ---
    Holy crap!
[1:16:16] ---
    Time has passed into a new period?
[1:16:19] ---
    Again! Again while I've been
    held prisoner inside this place!
[1:16:25] ---
    Unforgivable! Unforgivable!
[1:16:29] ---
    Damn you, Urokodaki!
    Damn you, Urokodaki!
[1:16:31] ---
    Damn you, Urokodaki!
    Damn you, Urokodaki!
[1:16:34] ---
    How do you know Urokodaki?
[1:16:36] ---
    I know him, all right! Because Urokodaki
    is the one who captured me!
[1:16:40] ---
    I'll never forget that day 47 years ago!
[1:16:44] ---
    Back when he was still hunting demons!
[1:16:47] ---
    It was the Edo Period during the Keio Era.
[1:16:50] ---
    Hunting demons? Edo Period?
[1:16:52] ---
    You're lying!
[1:16:53] ---
    No demon has ever lived that long!
[1:16:56] ---
    The only demons in here should be the ones
    who've eaten just two or three humans!
[1:17:00] ---
    They don't live long because they're
    killed during Final Selection
[1:17:03] ---
    or they end up eating each other!
[1:17:06] ---
    Yeah, but I've survived all this time.
[1:17:10] ---
    Inside this wisteria prison,
    I've eaten at least fifty of you brats.
[1:17:16] ---
    Fifty?
[1:17:18] ---
    11, 12...
[1:17:22] ---
    13.
[1:17:25] ---
    That makes you Number 14!
[1:17:27] ---
    What are you talking about?
[1:17:31] ---
    The number of Urokodaki's students
    I've eaten, that's what.
[1:17:35] ---
    I promised myself to kill
    every one of his students.
[1:17:40] ---
    Let's see. The ones who particularly
    stand out to me... It's those two.
[1:17:46] ---
    Those two...
[1:17:47] ---
    That brat's hair was an unusual color.
    He was the strongest.
[1:17:51] ---
    He had peach-colored hair.
    A scar by his mouth.
[1:17:56] ---
    The other one was a female brat
    in a flowery kimono.
[1:18:00] ---
    She was small and lacking in strength,
    but she was awfully agile.
[1:18:06] ---
    They had already been killed
    by this demon?
[1:18:09] ---
    But I was with them!
[1:18:11] ---
    That mask.
[1:18:12] ---
    I can tell by the fox masks.
[1:18:17] ---
    I know the texture of the masks
    Urokodaki carves.
[1:18:21] ---
    The same style of carving
    he used for his own tengu mask.
[1:18:25] ---
    Warding masks, right? Everyone got eaten
    just because they were wearing them.
[1:18:31] ---
    They're all here inside my belly.
[1:18:33] ---
    It's as if he's guided them
    to their deaths!
[1:18:38] ---
    When I said that to the girl,
    she was crying and fell into a rage.
[1:18:44] ---
    And right after that,
    she lost control of her movements.
[1:18:50] ---
    I ripped off her limbs, and then...
[1:19:00] ---
    Calm down, Tanjiro.
[1:19:02] ---
    Your breathing's uneven.
[1:19:05] ---
    It's all right. Never mind us!
[1:19:20] ---
    I'm getting out of here
    while the demon's taking out that guy!
[1:19:34] ---
    Another of Urokodaki's brats is dying.
[1:19:39] ---
    I wonder how he's going to feel when
    another of his kids doesn't come home.
[1:19:44] ---
    I wonder what kind of look
    he'll have on his face.
[1:19:49] ---
    Oh man, I wish I could see it.
[1:19:51] ---
    I really do.
[1:19:58] ---
    Big Bro!
[1:20:01] ---
    Big Bro!
[1:20:05] ---
    He dodged it!
[1:20:06] ---
    So, he can still move?
[1:20:08] ---
    Great! I can have some fun!
[1:20:18] ---
    Damn! No matter how many arms I cut,
[1:20:20] ---
    they grow back in a second!
[1:20:22] ---
    You can't defeat me
    just by slashing off my arms.
[1:20:26] ---
    Then again, even that pink-haired brat
    couldn't slice off my head!
[1:20:42] ---
    I can't just let this one go!
[1:20:46] ---
    Before any more lives are sacrificed,
[1:20:49] ---
    I gotta bring him down now!
[1:20:56] ---
    A demon's scent
    coming from the ground?
[1:21:03] ---
    H-He jumped! Dammit, I missed him!
[1:21:06] ---
    Yeah, but no way can he dodge
    this attack in mid-air!
[1:21:13] ---
    Do you think Tanjiro's going to lose, too?
[1:21:16] ---
    His neck is so tough after all.
[1:21:20] ---
    He may lose, and yet, he may win.
[1:21:24] ---
    Either way, there's one irrefutable fact.
[1:21:30] ---
    That Tanjiro...
[1:21:32] ---
    ...is the one who sliced
    the toughest, largest boulder of all.
[1:21:42] ---
    He deflected me!
[1:21:46] ---
    Total Concentration!
[1:21:48] ---
    Water Breathing!
[1:21:55] ---
    He got too close to me!
[1:21:57] ---
    Not to worry. My neck is tough!
    He can't slash it!
[1:22:01] ---
    First Form!
[1:22:03] ---
    As soon as he fails to cut my neck,
    I'm going to crush his head!
[1:22:08] ---
    Just like I did to the other one!
[1:22:20] ---
    Water Surface Slash!
[1:23:58] ---
    Urokodaki!
[1:24:10] ---
    Dammit! Dammit! Dammit!
[1:24:14] ---
    My body's crumbling and disappearing.
[1:24:18] ---
    I can't stop it!
[1:24:27] ---
    Dammit!
[1:24:29] ---
    To think that the face of a Demon Slayer
    will be the last thing I'll ever see...
[1:24:39] ---
    How did it come to this?
[1:24:47] ---
    I'm so scared. I'm all alone.
[1:24:52] ---
    Brother, where are you?
[1:24:57] ---
    I want you to hold my hand!
[1:25:00] ---
    Like you always do!
[1:25:03] ---
    Why?
[1:25:04] ---
    Why on earth did I
    bite you to death, Big Brother?
[1:25:11] ---
    Huh?
[1:25:13] ---
    Wait, who's this "Brother"?
[1:25:23] ---
    What a sad scent.
[1:25:38] ---
    God...
[1:25:39] ---
    Please...
[1:25:46] ---
    The next time this man is reborn,
[1:25:50] ---
    please make sure
    he doesn't turn into a demon.
[1:25:55] ---
    Brother!
[1:25:57] ---
    Brother! Brother!
[1:25:59] ---
    Hold my hand, will you?
[1:26:03] ---
    What am I going to do with you?
[1:26:05] ---
    Still such a scaredy-cat.
[1:26:30] ---
    Sabito, Makomo...
[1:26:34] ---
    ...and everyone else who was killed...
[1:26:38] ---
    I won.
[1:26:40] ---
    You can rest easy now.
[1:26:51] ---
    I guess you're going home as promised.
[1:26:55] ---
    Even if only as souls,
    you're going back to Mt. Sagiri...
[1:27:06] ---
    ...and to Urokodaki
    whom you all love very much.
[1:27:15] ---
    If I'd ended up dead,
[1:27:17] ---
    my soul would've returned there, too.
[1:27:34] ---
    There's something I wanna ask you!
[1:27:36] ---
    How do I turn someone who's become
    a demon back into a human?
[1:27:52] ---
    Please tell me!
[1:27:54] ---
    How can I turn Nezuko...
[1:27:56] ---
    ...back into a human?
[1:28:36] ---
    Wisteria?
[1:28:41] ---
    I made it.
[1:28:59] ---
    Only four of us?
[1:29:01] ---
    But there were at least twenty.
[1:29:04] ---
    I don't see that guy here, either.
[1:29:07] ---
    It's all because I blacked out
    at that moment.
[1:29:12] ---
    I couldn't save him.
[1:29:15] ---
    I'm gonna die. I'm a goner.
[1:29:18] ---
    Even if I survive now,
    I'm gonna die in the end anyway.
[1:29:22] ---
    --Welcome back.
    --Welcome back.
[1:29:30] ---
    Congratulations.
[1:29:33] ---
    We're pleased to see that you're safe.
[1:29:35] ---
    So? What am I supposed to do now?
[1:29:40] ---
    Where's my sword?
[1:29:41] ---
    First, we shall issue you all uniforms.
[1:29:46] ---
    We will take your measurements,
    after which your rank will be engraved.
[1:29:52] ---
    There are ten ranks in all...
[1:29:56] ---
    Kinoe.
[1:29:57] ---
    Kinoto.
[1:29:58] ---
    Hinoe.
[1:29:59] ---
    Hinoto.
[1:30:00] ---
    Tsuchinoe.
[1:30:01] ---
    Tsuchinoto.
[1:30:02] ---
    Kanoe.
[1:30:03] ---
    Kanoto.
[1:30:04] ---
    Mizunoe...
[1:30:06] ---
    ...and Mizunoto.
[1:30:07] ---
    Currently, you are
    at the lowest rank, Mizunoto.
[1:30:13] ---
    And our swords?
[1:30:15] ---
    Today, you will choose the ore
    for your swords.
[1:30:21] ---
    However, the swords will take
    ten to fifteen days to complete.
[1:30:26] ---
    Are you kidding me?
[1:30:26] ---
    But first...
[1:30:37] ---
    We will now assign each of you
    your own Kasugai Crow.
[1:30:42] ---
    Kasugai Crow?
[1:30:46] ---
    These Kasugai Crows can be used
    primarily for communication.
[1:30:51] ---
    Did you say "crow"?
[1:30:53] ---
    Isn't this a sparrow, though?
[1:30:54] ---
    Don't give me that crap!
[1:31:01] ---
    Who the hell cares
    about some stupid crow?
[1:31:10] ---
    I want a sword, you hear?
[1:31:12] ---
    Hand it over right now!
[1:31:15] ---
    The Demon Slayers' sword!
[1:31:17] ---
    The Color-Changing Katana!
[1:31:23] ---
    Let go of the child!
[1:31:25] ---
    Or else I'll break your arm!
[1:31:29] ---
    Who the hell are you?
[1:31:32] ---
    Wh-Wh-Wh-What should I do?
[1:31:34] ---
    Let's see you try it!
[1:31:55] ---
    Are you finished chatting?
[1:32:05] ---
    Now then, please choose an ore.
[1:32:12] ---
    The ore for the sword...
[1:32:14] ---
    ...that will annihilate demons
    and protect you...
[1:32:17] ---
    ...will be of your own choosing.
[1:32:20] ---
    Well, not that I'm going to live
    very long. Probably.
[1:32:29] ---
    They're asking us to choose,
[1:32:32] ---
    but how are we supposed to pick one out?
[1:32:35] ---
    I've never seen an ore before,
[1:32:38] ---
    and I can't tell the difference
    between them.
[1:32:43] ---
    I have absolutely no clue.
[1:33:05] ---
    I see.
[1:33:10] ---
    As many as five of them
    managed to survive, huh?
[1:33:13] ---
    Excellent.
[1:33:16] ---
    The number of my children
    has increased again.
[1:33:20] ---
    I wonder what kinds of swordsmen
    they'll become.
[1:33:50] ---
    I was so naive.
[1:33:53] ---
    None of the demons
    were even in a state to be able to talk.
[1:33:58] ---
    All they did was attack me
    and try to kill me right away.
[1:34:01] ---
    Sorry, Nezuko.
[1:34:06] ---
    I never got to ask them...
[1:34:10] ---
    ...how to turn a demon back into a human.
[1:34:18] ---
    Even my uniform is heavy.
[1:34:21] ---
    I wanna get home as soon as possible,
[1:34:23] ---
    but my whole body hurts!
[1:34:54] ---
    I made it.
[1:34:56] ---
    Nezuko... Urokodaki...
[1:35:09] ---
    Hey! Nezuko!
[1:35:11] ---
    You...
[1:35:13] ---
    So, you're awake?
[1:35:17] ---
    Nezuko!
[1:35:32] ---
    Why...
[1:35:33] ---
    Why'd you fall asleep like that?
[1:35:36] ---
    Never waking up once!
[1:35:40] ---
    I was worried you were
    going to die, you know.
[1:35:50] ---
    You came back to us alive.
[1:36:06] ---
    I see. You killed that morphed demon.
[1:36:10] ---
    Yes.
[1:36:13] ---
    At last.
[1:36:17] ---
    I'm truly impressed
    that you made it back.
[1:36:20] ---
    Yes.
[1:36:23] ---
    There are several kinds of demons.
[1:36:27] ---
    The demons with special "Blood Demon Art"
    are the ones with supernatural abilities.
[1:36:35] ---
    You may have to fight those demons,
    as well, from now on.
[1:36:39] ---
    And battling them will be
    far more difficult
[1:36:42] ---
    than anything you've known until now.
[1:36:46] ---
    Even so, Tanjiro,
    I'm sure you'll be fine.
[1:36:52] ---
    Right.
[1:36:55] ---
    Um...
[1:36:56] ---
    I think that Nezuko's not
    like the other demons.
[1:37:00] ---
    Do you think it could be
    one of those art something?
[1:37:04] ---
    No, I don't think so.
[1:37:07] ---
    I wouldn't consider it a Blood Demon Art.
[1:37:11] ---
    I'm just guessing here,
[1:37:14] ---
    but it could be that Nezuko's recovering
    her strength by sleeping
[1:37:17] ---
    instead of consuming human flesh.
[1:37:26] ---
    I promise I'll protect you, Nezuko.
[1:37:38] ---
    "15 DAYS LATER"
[1:37:57] ---
    Uh...
[1:37:58] ---
    My name is Haganezuka.
[1:38:01] ---
    I have forged Tanjiro Kamado's sword,
[1:38:04] ---
    and I am here to deliver it.
[1:38:09] ---
    Um, I'm Tanjiro Kamado.
[1:38:12] ---
    Please come inside.
[1:38:13] ---
    This is the Nichirin Sword.
[1:38:16] ---
    And I forged it.
[1:38:18] ---
    Um...
[1:38:19] ---
    Please come in
    so I can serve you some te--
[1:38:20] ---
    The materials for a Nichirin Sword
[1:38:22] ---
    are obtained from the mountain
    closest to the sun.
[1:38:26] ---
    Scarlet Iron Sand and Scarlet Ore.
[1:38:30] ---
    These produce steel
    that can absorb sunlight.
[1:38:35] ---
    Wow, is that right?
[1:38:37] ---
    Mt. Yoko is bathed in sunlight
    all day long, you see.
[1:38:42] ---
    --Never a cloud in the sky,
    nor any rain.
[1:38:43] ---
    --There he goes again,
    never listening to what anyone says...
    --Never a cloud in the sky,
    nor any rain.
[1:38:44] ---
    --There he goes again,
    never listening to what anyone says...
    --You're going to get dirty,
    so could you get up for a second?
[1:38:49] ---
    A hyottoko mask?
[1:38:52] ---
    Hey, you're a Child of Brightness,
    aren't you?
[1:38:57] ---
    Now that's what I call lucky.
[1:39:00] ---
    Oh no, I'm the son of Tanjuro and Kie.
[1:39:03] ---
    That's not what I meant.
[1:39:06] ---
    See how your hair and eyes
    are a reddish color?
[1:39:10] ---
    When a kid like you is born
    into a family that works with fire,
[1:39:13] ---
    it's considered lucky
    and a cause for celebration.
[1:39:17] ---
    Is that right? I had no idea.
[1:39:20] ---
    There's a good chance
    that this sword will turn red!
[1:39:24] ---
    Right, Urokodaki?
[1:39:26] ---
    Yes.
[1:39:32] ---
    Come on, hurry up and draw it!
[1:39:34] ---
    Nichirin Swords are also known
    as "Color-Changing Katana."
[1:39:39] ---
    They change color
    depending on the bearer.
[1:40:10] ---
    Black!
[1:40:11] ---
    It's black, huh?
[1:40:13] ---
    Is it bad or something
    if it turns black?
[1:40:16] ---
    Is it unlucky?
[1:40:18] ---
    No, not necessarily.
[1:40:21] ---
    But you don't see
    this pitch black too often.
[1:40:26] ---
    And I thought I was going to see
    a bright red sword!
[1:40:30] ---
    Dammit!
[1:40:33] ---
    Ouch! Stop!
[1:40:36] ---
    Please calm down!
    How old do you think you are?
[1:40:39] ---
    I'm 37!
[1:40:49] ---
    Tanjiro Kamado!
[1:40:51] ---
    Here are your orders!
[1:40:54] ---
    It talks!
[1:40:56] ---
    Make your way to a town
    to the northwest!
[1:41:00] ---
    Young girls have been vanishing there!
[1:41:20] ---
    Night after night,
[1:41:22] ---
    young girls have been vanishing!
[1:41:26] ---
    Hunt down the demon
    lurking there and kill it!
[1:41:31] ---
    Tanjiro Kamado,
    prepare yourself well for this task!
[1:41:35] ---
    This is your first assignment...
[1:41:37] ---
    ...as a Demon Slayer!
[1:41:41] ---
    My first... assignment...
[1:47:27] ---
    "DEMON SLAYER:
    KIMETSU NO YAIBA"
    "SIBLING'S BOND"
[1:47:50] ---
    "RUSTLE RUSTLE" "PREVIEW"
    
[1:47:53] ---
    "RUSTLE RUSTLE" "PREVIEW"
    What are you doing there...
[1:47:56] ---
    Tomioka?
[1:47:58] ---
    Long time no see!
[1:48:00] ---
    What can I do for you?
[1:48:02] ---
    Thank you for everything
    on that snowy mountain.
[1:48:04] ---
    If you hadn't believed in Nezuko
    and me that day,
[1:48:09] ---
    if you hadn't led me to become a swordsman
    in the Demon Slayer Corps, we would've...
[1:48:14] ---
    No need for gratitude.
[1:48:17] ---
    I did what I had to do.
[1:48:20] ---
    If you can devote yourself to doing what
    you can right now, that'll be good enough.
[1:48:25] ---
    Right!
[1:48:27] ---
    Now, it's time for a Taisho-era secret!
[1:48:30] ---
    Did you know that Tomioka was also
    a disciple of the former Water Hashira,
[1:48:33] ---
    the trainer, Urokodaki,
    and trained under him?
[1:48:38] ---
    Regarding how that came to pass...
[1:48:40] ---
    Both his parents died of illness,
    and he was living with his big sister
[1:48:44] ---
    when his sister was attacked by a demon
    and ended up getting killed.
[1:48:49] ---
    When he spoke of this to those around him,
    they decided that he was mentally ill,
[1:48:54] ---
    and he was taken away
    by wealthy relatives who lived far away.
[1:49:00] ---
    Tomioka fled while being transported...
[1:49:04] ---
    ...but he was still a child.
    He lost his way in the woods...
[1:49:08] ---
    ...and lay on the brink of death
[1:49:10] ---
    until a friend of Urokodaki's, a hunter,
    rescued him. That was what started it.
[1:49:16] ---
    He was raised by Urokodaki
    and calls him "sensei" to this day.
[1:49:22] ---
    Not only do I owe Tomioka my life,
    he's also my senior disciple.
[1:49:27] ---
    Wait, where's Tomioka?
[1:49:31] ---
    He's gone, huh?
[1:49:33] ---
    I heard that Sabito
    was also raised by Urokodaki,
[1:49:36] ---
    so I wonder if Tomioka knew Sabito.
[1:49:39] ---
    Half of Tomioka's haori
    looks just like Sabito's.
[1:49:43] ---
    I wonder if there's a link there.
[1:49:48] ---
    How about we ask him sometime?
[1:49:51] ---
    All right, then, let's get going!
[1:49:53] ---
    To the town in the northwest!
[1:49:55] ---
    For our first job as Demon Slayers!
[1:49:59] ---
    "TO BE CONTINUED"
