Demon Slayer Infinity Castle On OTT: Demon Slayer Infinity Castle, also known as Akaza’s Return, is making waves in Japanese cinemas. The creators have always treated Demon Slayer films and the anime series as separate storytelling experiences. Each movie adds extra depth to the plot, linking one major arc to the next, and is designed to draw fans into theatres with teasers for the upcoming season. The excitement is not only because of its gripping storyline but also because it is expected to be a cinema-only release.
The Infinity Castle anime movie appears to follow the same pattern as earlier Demon Slayer films, such as Mugen Train, which were first released exclusively in cinemas before arriving on streaming later. In most cases, the first episode of a new anime season begins exactly where the movie ends. This time too, Infinity Castle – Part 1, which focuses on Akaza’s return, is expected to do the same. That makes it an essential watch for fans who want the complete storyline.
Additionally, right now, there is no confirmed plan for a Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle series, or what many would call season 5. Reports suggest this was confirmed after Demon Slayer: Hashira Training Arc (season 4) was released on OTT. However, the creators have not completely ruled it out. If the films perform exceptionally well around the world, there is still a small chance for the story to be extended briefly into a final season. As of now, the Demon Slayer saga is expected to conclude in 2029 with Infinity Castle – Part 3.
Meanwhile, for those wanting to relive Tanjiro Kamado’s journey before Akaza’s Return arrives, all four seasons of Demon Slayer are now available to stream on JioHotstar via OTTplay Premium. This is a perfect way to recap the story from Tanjiro’s tragic beginnings, through his battles with Akaza, to his mission to defeat the ultimate villain, Muzan.
