Here is what we know, and some stuff to expect. !! MAJOR SPOILER ALERT !! Here’s what you should know about season one and the movie, Mugen Train. 

Season 1 takes place in the Taisho Era in Japan. Tanjiro Kamado, a young boy, left to sell coal in a nearby village, and came back to his family massacred by Demons.

The movie was about Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, and Inosuke getting on a train to assist the flame hashira, Kyōjurō Rengoku, on a mission to help him hunt for a demon who has killed many innocent comrades. A little bit after getting on the train they fall into a deep sleep. Then Enmu, Rank #7 of the Twelve Kizuki, tells 4 passengers who are suffering from insomnia to go inside of the Demon Slayer’s dreams, and demolish their spiritual cores. Tanjiro wakes up, and frees everyone else from this everlasting dream. Him and Inosuke rush to the front of the train to finally defeat Enmu. On the other end of the train, Rengoku, Zenitsu, and Nezuko are fighting Enmu’s tentacles to protect the passengers.
