Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Movie Trilogy Kicks Off This Summer

The Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba franchise enters its final arc with a three-part theatrical spectacular, beginning with Part 1: Akaza Returns, scheduled to premiere in Japan on July 18, 2025, and internationally later this year. The film trilogy adapts the climactic Infinity Castle arc from Koyoharu Gotouge’s hit manga, ushering in the ultimate showdown with Muzan and his Upper Moon demons.

Epic Finale on the Big Screen

This cinematic conclusion follows a successful pattern: the Mugen Train movie in 2020, followed by compilation films for the Swordsmith Village and Hashira Training arcs. But Infinity Castle marks a major shift—it's a full-length adaptation of over 60 manga chapters, offering immersive storytelling and breathtaking animation. The release schedule of the movie is shown below:

Global Rollout & Fan Excitement

Within 24 hours, the trailer has amassed over 40 million views, teasing the emotional and action-packed tone of the finale. The trailer announces 2 theme songs from Aimer and LiSA, with Aimer performing the song “Taiyō ga Noboranai Sekai" (A world Where the Sun Never Rises”), and LiSA performing "Zankoku no Yoru ni Kagayake" ("Shine in the Cruel Night").

Part 1: Akaza Returns launches July 18, 2025, ushering in a global theatrical event for Demon Slayer fans. With emotionally charged confrontations, powerful animation by Ufotable, and new theme songs, this trilogy kickoff promises to be a landmark in anime cinema. Stay tuned for Parts 2 and 3—this story isn’t over yet.
