Demon Slayer Trilogy Breakdown and Prediction! (SPOILERS)

[00:00] so Demon Slayer season 4 or the hash

[00:02] training Arc is over we know where it

[00:04] ends I was exactly right in my

[00:06] prediction that I made a few days ago

[00:08] exactly what chapter it would end

[00:10] exactly the scene it would end and now

[00:12] I'm going to try to predict how they're

[00:14] going to split the movies apart so

[00:15] spoiler warning I'm going to spoil not

[00:18] exactly everything I'm going to spoil

[00:20] some like what fights are going to take

[00:22] place what the order of those fights may

[00:25] be and just some general details like

[00:28] that uh if you want to go in completely

[00:30] blind to these movies then uh fair

[00:32] warning I will be giving up a few

[00:34] details but if you already know the

[00:36] story and you just want to kind of enter

[00:38] this discussion on what chapters will be

[00:40] covered in which movies out of the three

[00:42] Trilogy that we know we're getting now

[00:45] uh then this videoos for you so I have

[00:48] mentioned before that I think the idea

[00:50] of a Trilogy is fine and I think it

[00:52] works except for there's one big problem

[00:54] and that is that the first like

[00:56] two-thirds of this story really have no

[01:00] Middle Point there's a kind of further

[01:03] into the story point you could do but

[01:05] that would leave the second movie being

[01:07] very short so today what I'm going to

[01:10] try to do is I'm going to take all the

[01:11] fights that are in this

[01:13] final Saga here and then I'm going to

[01:16] split them up and to put them into each

[01:19] movie that will make the story make

[01:22] sense cinematically make sense and I

[01:25] think we'll just make the best story and

[01:28] the best

[01:30] thematic experience that we can possibly

[01:33] get now obviously uh one big thing is

[01:36] that we're going to probably get anime

[01:38] original stuff we have already uh some

[01:40] of the stuff at the end of the hashira

[01:42] training Arc is original uh the stuff to

[01:45] where it basically sucked in all of the

[01:48] other uh demon Slayers that really

[01:50] wasn't in the manga we knew it happened

[01:52] but it wasn't there especially to the

[01:55] extent that it was uh we get kind of

[01:57] this few panels but that's it with this

[02:01] we got multiple minutes of seeing this

[02:04] uh same thing with muan arriving at the

[02:06] ubay yashi Mansion we got multiple

[02:08] minutes of him getting there we got some

[02:10] extra bits there like I said in my one

[02:12] video the explosion that was one panel

[02:16] in the manga is a whole sequence and I

[02:20] think we're going to get more like that

[02:22] as the story progresses we're going to

[02:24] go from what was one chapter will now be

[02:28] maybe 10 minutes of screen time and I

[02:31] think that's warranted and I think some

[02:33] fights are going to be much longer much

[02:35] more drawn out and not in a bad way I

[02:38] think they're going to be put more you

[02:39] know effort into them and I think

[02:41] they're going to be made even better for

[02:45] the TV or now theater experience so

[02:49] let's start off with movie one now to me

[02:52] to make the movies the most enjoyable

[02:55] all the way through we need to have one

[02:57] big fight and we need to have one minor

[03:00] fight uh if we have two big fights in

[03:02] one movie I think they're going to

[03:03] overshadow one another we need to have

[03:05] one that kind of is a background fight

[03:07] and one that is a major fight and I

[03:09] think also we're going to add in in each

[03:11] movie we're going to kind of give a

[03:12] update as to what our other characters

[03:14] are doing now can't do that on all of

[03:17] them we'll get to that but I think for

[03:20] Simplicity sake that makes the most

[03:22] sense until we get to that third movie

[03:23] that third movie Just changes everything

[03:25] so let's start off with talking about

[03:26] what fights I think will be covered in

[03:28] the first two movies movies so the first

[03:31] one of those is zenitsu's fight uh

[03:33] zenitsu encounters someone from his past

[03:36] and uh we find out more about why he is

[03:39] the way he is right now those the

[03:41] discovery he found out in the letter we

[03:43] discover all of that so the fight with

[03:46] him is a major point in his character

[03:48] Arc it is pretty much the final Arc of

[03:50] him and uh we I think that will be in

[03:53] the first movie I think that's going to

[03:54] be the minor fight of the first movie

[03:56] and I think it will be a very important

[03:58] scene and I think this is the fight that

[04:00] can be the most added on to I think we

[04:03] can get a lot of interesting stuff in

[04:05] this fight uh it's probably the shortest

[04:09] fight out of the entire uh

[04:11] manga Infinity Arc Infinity Castle Arc

[04:14] but I think this one we can kind of make

[04:16] it a little longer because we're going

[04:18] to cut between this fight and the next

[04:21] fight which I had to debate do I want

[04:25] there's there's the upper Moon two and

[04:26] then there's the upper Moon three which

[04:28] is aaza

[04:30] do I want to put the upper Moon 3 in the

[04:33] first movie or put the upper Moon 2 in

[04:35] the first movie I think the better idea

[04:39] is to put the upper Moon 3 aaza in the

[04:43] first movie and by doing that we're

[04:45] going to move everything from the upper

[04:48] Moon 2 fight to the second movie that

[04:50] means we're going to have to rearrange

[04:51] some of the chapters because uh shobu

[04:54] encounters the upper Moon 2 very early

[04:57] on is before pretty much anything it is

[04:59] like two chapters into where we are now

[05:03] we are currently at chapter 140 uh the

[05:05] upper Moon 2 fight starts at like

[05:07] chapter 142 so it would be immediately

[05:11] the upper Moon 2 fight and I don't think

[05:14] that really works because the upper Moon

[05:15] 2 fight actually goes on for quite a

[05:19] while until chapter 164 and I don't

[05:22] think we can put 24 chapters into one

[05:26] movie and I think it's it's obvious the

[05:28] zenitsu fight is going to have happened

[05:29] in the first movie that's just it it

[05:31] makes the most sense so we're going to

[05:33] have to put that there so there's no way

[05:36] we can put the upper Moon 2 and the

[05:38] upper Moon 3 in the same movie so by

[05:42] doing that I think upper Moon 3 works

[05:44] much better in that first movie we get

[05:46] arono and guu fight in that movie and

[05:50] then we get the uh Kane or cono and U an

[05:57] oske fight with the upper Moon 2 in the

[05:59] second movie I think that just works you

[06:01] know much better I think then we can

[06:04] maybe this shobu stuff is the final

[06:06] scene of the first movie I think that

[06:09] would be a great like Cliffhanger and

[06:11] this is where I think we're going to

[06:12] have the biggest change from the manga

[06:14] to the anime and that we're going to

[06:17] have to rearrange stuff we're going to

[06:19] have to add some scenes so that we can

[06:21] we got a cliffhanger from the higher

[06:23] training Arc into the movies now we're

[06:26] going to have to have another point to

[06:28] where it's like hey guys we're not done

[06:30] this was just the first movie time for

[06:32] the next movie and I think this is where

[06:35] we're going to end the first movie with

[06:38] uh we're going to move the scenes with

[06:39] shinobu meeting the upper Moon 2 we're

[06:42] going to move them from the beginning of

[06:45] this Arc we're going to move it to the

[06:47] end of the first movie and shinobu will

[06:50] walk in she'll have her things and

[06:53] spoiler here shinobu is going to be

[06:56] killed in the end of the first movie and

[06:59] then I think we will have uh cono come

[07:02] in and she will be able she will begin

[07:05] her fight at the end of the first movie

[07:08] leading us into the second movie so then

[07:10] we get to the second movie and this is

[07:12] the most interesting part of the story

[07:14] because pretty much this second movie is

[07:17] not going to have Tano in it at all and

[07:20] I think that's a very interesting thing

[07:22] because pretty much Tano is our main

[07:24] character Tano has been our it's your

[07:28] bread and butter when you think of

[07:29] demons say you're thinking of Tano or

[07:31] you're thinking of nezo neither one of

[07:33] them are going to be in this movie

[07:34] pretty much at all because they just

[07:36] aren't in these two fights so what we're

[07:39] going to do second movie We're going to

[07:41] have the upper Moon 2 and the upper Moon

[07:43] one and we're going to have to split it

[07:44] up a little bit because it's if we load

[07:49] the front end with upper Moon 2 and then

[07:52] the last half is the upper Moon one I

[07:54] think it will seem a bit kind of hard to

[07:57] do that so what I'm thinking is we start

[07:59] with upper Moon 2 but then we cut to

[08:01] Upper Moon one and we start to have the

[08:03] upper Moon one fight we end about the

[08:06] upper Moon two or we we the upper Moon

[08:09] two fight will end about three4 of the

[08:12] way through and then the final like 20

[08:15] minutes is just upper Moon one fight

[08:18] because that is the big climactic scene

[08:21] of the movie I think it's fine if the

[08:23] upper Moon 2 fight ends pretty quickly

[08:25] so that way we can get on with the final

[08:28] the big fight there now this does mean

[08:32] that the second movie will be pretty

[08:34] much a blood bath uh and it will be the

[08:37] uh deadliest movie of all of them um

[08:41] because it does not go well and we get

[08:43] obviously like I just said shobu will

[08:45] die in the first movie so I think we're

[08:47] g to you know it'll cover that again

[08:50] kind of like how we're going to cover

[08:52] the entrance to the infinity castle like

[08:54] the final scene of the hashir training

[08:56] Arc will be the first scene of the first

[08:59] movie I think we're going to get the

[09:01] final scene with shinobu will be the

[09:03] first scene of the second movie and I

[09:06] think then obviously we got one that's

[09:09] already dead with shobu and then we're

[09:11] going to have more and more and more

[09:13] characters that just start biting the

[09:15] dust throughout that and I think this is

[09:17] the movie where you're kind of start to

[09:20] realize we're not going to get out of

[09:22] this without some major character deaths

[09:26] so going through the upper Moon one and

[09:29] the upper Moon 2 fight we end those and

[09:32] so now we have to figure out how we go

[09:35] from the second movie to the third movie

[09:38] and I think this is the easiest part I

[09:40] think this was very obvious to me as to

[09:42] where you start that third movie and

[09:44] it's pretty much muon reappearing uh

[09:47] muon kind of disappears for the first

[09:49] like two-thirds of this story um and

[09:52] then he reappears and that's whenever we

[09:54] kind of get all of this you know what's

[09:58] happening and everything and this is

[10:00] where I think we are going to end the

[10:02] first movie is mus on reappearing and

[10:05] then we will just cut there now I think

[10:10] there is a few spots you could cut um I

[10:12] think the best one is if you just say

[10:14] hey all right upper Moon one is dead

[10:16] upper Moon 2 is dead but muan still

[10:19] there here's muon final movie here we

[10:22] go I think you could also end it with

[10:25] the infinity Castle being destroyed um

[10:28] which would mean the upper moon for is

[10:29] is defeated um the upper Moon 4 fight is

[10:31] very very brief uh it's pretty much the

[10:34] same length as the zenitsu fight um and

[10:37] I think uh it it works best as just

[10:41] being a first scene of the movie so I

[10:47] think you know it or the third movie I

[10:49] think that works the best I think as a

[10:52] thematic thing it just gives you this

[10:54] kind of okay brief fight we're not going

[10:57] straight into the mus on fight I don't

[10:58] think that really would work so it's

[11:00] kind of an opening scene we get the

[11:02] upper Moon 4 fight and then that's the

[11:04] final upper Moon that is gone uh we get

[11:06] that one defeated and then we the

[11:08] infinity Castle is completely destroyed

[11:10] at that point we are outside and then we

[11:13] are pretty much in the sunrise Arc so

[11:15] this would mean that the final three

[11:16] volumes of the manga are all in this

[11:19] final movie and I'm not going to go into

[11:22] Major Spoilers here about what happens

[11:24] at the very end but obviously you can

[11:26] kind of assume that muan is defeated so

[11:29] I think all of this is going to happen

[11:30] in the final movie but I think the final

[11:34] movie is going to have the most anime

[11:36] original content especially the epilog

[11:39] especially the final stuff because there

[11:41] is some questions that have never really

[11:44] been answered uh especially with the

[11:47] fact that uh it's pretty much we've

[11:50] heard it before that if you get the

[11:52] Demon Slayer Mark you are going to die

[11:54] before a certain age and that plays a

[11:56] role in this final uh Arc here but it

[11:59] never is explained that if whenever muan

[12:03] is defeated if that still Reigns true or

[12:06] if that Cur is broken so I think that's

[12:09] where we got to really look into it and

[12:12] see if they make any changes to clarify

[12:16] that or if they change it because right

[12:18] now a lot of people assume they still

[12:19] will um but I think some people might

[12:21] say no uh they that's all gone once M on

[12:26] is defeated so I think either way I

[12:28] think that needs to be explained and I

[12:29] think it will be by an epilog so as for

[12:34] like runtime of these I would say first

[12:37] movie you're going to look at probably

[12:38] right at about two hours I think two

[12:40] hours makes the most sense you're going

[12:42] to introduce the characters the world

[12:44] again um just get the general audience

[12:46] if they haven't been here since M Train

[12:48] you're going to kind of get them up to

[12:49] speed where we're at and then all right

[12:52] here we go again we're in the infinity

[12:54] Castle do the zenitsu fight do the upper

[12:56] Moon three there you go and I think

[12:59] think that way putting the upper Moon 3

[13:00] fight in that first movie if you do have

[13:03] people that weren't here since mugan

[13:04] train they're like I remember that guy I

[13:07] don't like that guy we're going to kill

[13:08] him and there you go and then they're

[13:10] hooked for the next movie so then moving

[13:13] on to movie two I think that one you're

[13:16] probably talking about an hour and 40

[13:17] minutes I just don't think you could

[13:19] make it much longer and my reasoning is

[13:22] is because that upper Moon 2 fight is

[13:24] probably a little longer than the upper

[13:26] Moon one fight yeah the upper Moon one

[13:28] fight has got a lot lot of just it it's

[13:31] really good it's a really good fight now

[13:33] I personally I think the best fight in

[13:35] this entire Arc is the upper Moon 2

[13:36] fight that's a separate fact but I think

[13:40] that upper Moon one fight has some

[13:42] really interesting details it's got some

[13:44] really hard hitting moment I think all

[13:47] of that is a great point but I still

[13:51] think that that whole point there is

[13:55] still going to only be probably the

[13:58] upper Moon 2 fight is probably going to

[14:00] be right at about 40 minutes the upper

[14:02] Moon one fight is going to be right at

[14:04] probably 40 minutes as well that gives

[14:06] you about 20 extra minutes to introduce

[14:09] uh muon as well as well as you know

[14:12] having the shobou scene from the

[14:13] original or from the first movie that

[14:15] you're going to put on this one I just

[14:17] think that works the best but then that

[14:19] gets us on to the final movie and I

[14:20] think the final movie is going to be

[14:21] like two hours and 20 minutes I think

[14:23] it's going to be quite long and I think

[14:26] the biggest reason for that is Anime

[14:27] original content you're just going to

[14:29] have a lot of stuff I think they're

[14:31] going to want to add on to the end of

[14:33] this story nothing that is unnecessary I

[14:36] think it's all going to be necessary

[14:37] stuff that probably was not thought of

[14:40] for the manga or just stuff that they

[14:43] want to clarify from the manga like I

[14:45] mentioned before so I think all of that

[14:48] will be put into the final movie I think

[14:52] it makes most sense there you're going

[14:53] to have a lot of like kind of I don't

[14:57] want to say grieving

[14:59] but like celebration and I think I think

[15:02] you need that at the end of that movie

[15:04] so I think the

[15:06] first hour and a half is going to be the

[15:09] fight the Muson fight and then the final

[15:13] like 30 to 40 minutes is going to be

[15:18] talking about the end of that wrapping

[15:20] up nezo wrapping up Tano wrapping up

[15:24] everything like that going over the

[15:26] characters that have died we're going to

[15:29] have to have all of that and then we're

[15:31] going to talk about the epilogue I think

[15:33] the epilog will be pretty much identical

[15:38] to what we see in the manga except I'm

[15:41] going to go out on a limb and say that

[15:43] we're going to get a narrator for the

[15:45] epilog the epilog's got a lot of panels

[15:48] that are just

[15:49] like this is who this is this is who

[15:53] this is this is who this is we can't

[15:56] really do that and the way the

[15:59] characters are designed in the epilog

[16:01] you're going to need a little bit of a

[16:04] description because some of them may be

[16:06] confused with other characters I was the

[16:08] first time I read it so I think you're

[16:12] definitely going to have to have a

[16:14] narrator to kind of just go over

[16:17] everything and I don't know who you make

[16:20] the narrator do you make it uh you know

[16:22] one person from the past do you make it

[16:24] one of these new characters I don't know

[16:26] uh this is something that I think we'll

[16:27] have to look into as we get closer maybe

[16:30] it's something that I'm completely off

[16:31] on and we don't need a narrator maybe

[16:33] they'll just put little speech bubbles

[16:34] or something I don't know but I

[16:36] definitely think you need some sort of

[16:38] narrator at the finale and I think that

[16:40] will really make that movie just so much

[16:43] better and that's about it obviously we

[16:46] are probably about a year away from this

[16:50] first movie I think it will be early

[16:52] next year that we get that first movie I

[16:54] think the second movie will be fall of

[16:56] next year and then I think the third and

[16:59] final movie will be summer of 2026 I

[17:02] think we're going to get them probably

[17:04] about 6 to eight months apart being that

[17:07] it's June now I think probably February

[17:10] will be the first one then we're going

[17:12] to get another one probably around

[17:14] October is and then the final one will

[17:17] be probably around April so we'll see

[17:20] how all that turns out um obviously I

[17:23] know that there have been uh people

[17:24] saying that Demon Slayer production is

[17:26] way ahead of where they need to be so

[17:29] they probably could release all three of

[17:30] them next year if they wanted to I don't

[17:32] think that's in their best interest I

[17:34] think their best interest is to do them

[17:36] kind of spread out not very far uh you

[17:38] can't do them like Star Wars to where

[17:39] you do one every like three years or two

[17:41] years because people would just lose

[17:43] interest they would get bored of it and

[17:46] your audience right now you're you've

[17:47] got a younger audience so younger

[17:50] audiences move on to new things very

[17:52] quickly so if you keep them like hey

[17:55] remember this from you know a year ago

[17:58] here's the next movie here's the next

[18:00] movie here's the next movie if you split

[18:01] it out over six years you're going to

[18:02] lose a lot of your Audience by that

[18:04] final movie so you're going to have to

[18:05] Bam Bam Bam get them out and I think

[18:07] they're going to do that so anyway

[18:09] that's pretty much it um what did you

[18:11] think do you think uh it will be what I

[18:14] said do you think they're going to move

[18:15] the fights do you think they're just

[18:16] going to split it up we're going to get

[18:18] the first half of the upper Moon 2 fight

[18:20] in that first movie and then we're going

[18:21] to get the second half of it in that

[18:23] second movie I just don't see how that's

[18:25] going to work that's going to be so much

[18:26] content in that first movie and then a

[18:28] very

[18:29] upper Moon one heavy second movie and I
