Recap of the previous episode

As previously stated, the main focus of the arc has been on Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke reuniting after the events in the Swordsmith Village and strengthening themselves to confront Muzan and his demons. However, this arc has also allowed other characters to showcase their abilities through their interactions. One key part of the episode was dedicated to Tanjiro’s training with Muichiro Tokito, which the anime elaborated on from a mere two-page section in the manga.

The main focus of the episode was on Tanjiro’s beginning of his training with a new Hashira. This training differed from his previous one with Tengen Uzui and also helped to give Muichiro some more attention.

One of the most memorable scenes from the episode was the intense fight between two powerful Hashira, Sanemi Shinazugawa and Obanai Iguro. This was not the first time the two had clashed, as Ufotable had also included a similar encounter in the first episode of the season. However, this particular battle showcased their skills and was definitely one of the highlights of the season thus far.

What to Expect in Demon Slayer Season 4 Episode 5?

The Hashira Training arc, well-known to manga readers, primarily consists of character development rather than major battles. Fans can anticipate scenes of training and delving into backstories as the characters aim to become stronger, as the title suggests.

Based on the evidence, it is likely that Demon Slayer season 4 episode 5 will center on character interactions and may also feature some anime-original scenes, similar to those showcasing Obanai and Sanemi in the first episode, or the newer scenes that were introduced in the recent episodes.
