We’ve already discussed the opening theme that has been leaked, but this is not the only interesting thing that fans have noticed. There’s a scene of two Hashira, Sanemi and Obanai, at the Infinity Castle, and it got fans confused.

The thing is that the Infinity Castle Arc is the one following the Hashira Training Arc. There have been debates over the upcoming season because everyone knows by now that the Hashira Training is not enough for the entire season.

That’s why some fans suggested that we would see more of the story in Season 4, and it might even include certain parts of the Infinity Castle Arc. However, it’s quite uncommon for anime to divide story arcs between the seasons, and this arc is too big to fully fit into Season 4.

For that reason, seeing Sanemi and Obanai at the Infinity Castle was so puzzling to so many fans. Is ufotable going to adapt two arcs? What is happening?

Fans have the answer

The scene that you can find among the leaks is a 5-minute anime-only sequence. It comes at the beginning of the episode and shows the two Hashira on a mission to deal with a group of demons, one of which seems to have escaped into the Infinity Castle, forcing Sanemi and Obanai to chase after the demon.

However, they encounter a door that takes them back to the real world.

The first idea that fans had was the scene being a flash forward, but manga readers confirmed: it’s not. It’s just an extra scene that was not in the manga.

Some fans consider the scene to be a small teaser for the Infinity Castle Arc that gives the viewers a hint at the future events of the series. Just to make you realize that of course demon slayers will get there, and of course there will be something interesting.

Those who have already seen the movie praise the scene for its incredible execution and say that the Infinity Castle looks even better than it did in the first episode of Season 3. And we can’t wait to check it out for ourselves.
