After participating in Mitsuro Kanroji’s Flexibility Training, Tanjiro then moved on to Obanai Iguro’s Sword Skill Revision Training. Despite hearing about the enjoyable time Tanjiro had with Mitsuri, Obanai was particularly harsh on him. Later, Tanjiro joined Sanemi Shinazugawa’s Infinite Slashing Training, but was scolded by his superiors for defending Genya during the session.

In the previous episode, Tanjiro and Zenitsu were reprimanded by Sanemi Shinazugawa during his Infinite Slashing Training. Afterwards, they made their way to Stone Hashira Gyomei Himejima’s training grounds where they were both surprised by what they saw. Inosuke was standing underneath a waterfall while the Stone Hashira sat amidst a fire.

Despite being shocked to the core by these events, both demon slayers will still participate in the Muscle Amplification Training alongside Inosuke Hashibira. Based on hints from the previous episode, it appears that the training will primarily target mental fortitude.

At the beginning of the Hashira Training Arc, Inosuke Hashibira was last spotted when he discovered the training program. He was highly enthusiastic about the training and appeared to have left Zenitsu behind, even though they had both started at the same time.

Since Inosuke made his return in the previous episode of the anime, it is highly likely that he will reunite with Tanjiro and Zenitsu in the upcoming episode. As a result, viewers can anticipate plenty of interactions between the trio of demon slayers, potentially resulting in some humorous moments.

Despite appearing in the first season of the anime, Stone Hashira Gyomei Himejima’s character has yet to be fully developed. Although fans are aware of his status as the strongest Hashira in the Demon Slayer Corps, they have not yet discovered the reason for his unwavering title.

Therefore, with the title of the upcoming episode being ‘The Strongest of the Demon Slayer Corps,’ viewers can anticipate that Episode 6 of the Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc will predominantly revolve around the Stone Hashira.
