How to Watch Demon Slayer
Demon Slayer is one of the easiest modern anime to watch — every episode is canon with essentially zero filler. The story follows Tanjiro Kamado's journey across four seasons, each adapting a major manga arc. The Mugen Train arc was released as both a blockbuster movie and a 7-episode TV version (episodes 22–26 of Season 1 + extras). You only need one — the TV version includes expanded scenes and is the recommended choice. After Season 1, continue straight into the Entertainment District Arc, then Swordsmith Village, and finally the Hashira Training and Infinity Castle arcs. With approximately 22 hours of content total and no filler to skip, Demon Slayer is one of the most efficient watches in our entire guide.
