What to Expect from Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc Episode 8?
Kagaya Ubayashiki’s Potential Ambush of Muzan Kibutsuji in Demon Slayer Episode 8
In the previous episode of the anime, Muzan Kibutsuji paid a visit to Kagaya Ubuyashiki at his mansion. It was clear that Muzan had no trouble entering the premises of the mansion. Although it is possible that Muzan may have eliminated any guards, the show has never depicted any demon slayers protecting the Ubuyashiki mansion. This suggests that Kagaya Ubuyashiki had full confidence in the safety of his family.
Despite Muzan’s entrance into the mansion’s premises, neither Kagaya nor Amane displayed any surprise at the Demon King’s arrival. This lack of reaction implies that Kagaya Ubuyashiki was anticipating Muzan’s coming. Therefore, he likely has a plan in place to defeat him, which may be revealed in the upcoming episode.
Attempting to Extract Nezuko’s Location: Recap of Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc Episode 8
As depicted in the anime, Muzan Kibutsuji has been utilizing the new Upper Moon Four Demon Nakime to track down Kagaya Ubuyashiki and Nezuko Kamado. It is evident that Nakime was able to successfully locate Kagaya, leading to Muzan’s arrival at his mansion.
Despite the possibility of waiting for Nakime to find Nezuko, Muzan’s impatience got the best of him and he left the Infinity Castle as soon as he discovered Kagaya’s whereabouts. As a result, the upcoming episode of the anime may show Muzan Kibutsuji inquiring about Nezuko Kamado’s whereabouts from Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
The Hashira’s Arrival at Ubuyashiki Mansion in Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc Episode 8
The title of Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc Episode 8, “The Hashira Unite,”suggests that in the upcoming episode, all of the Hashira will come together to defend their leader Kagaya at the Ubuyashiki Mansion. As a result, viewers can anticipate a confrontation between the Hashira and the Demon King before their ultimate showdown.
It is important to note that prior to Muzan’s confrontation with Ubuyashiki, Tanjiro Kamado had been in the company of Giyu Tomioka. As a result, it is highly likely that he will accompany Giyu and the other Hashira to the Ubuyashiki Mansion. The anime’s preview also hints at this possibility.
