Demon slayer movie and season 2

2749

I haven't watch the demon slayer movie and season 2 the first ep. Should I first start with season 2 for the extra content or should I just watch the movie. Which is the best?

Kazahana 4y
No clue, I'm super confused about it since it's all one entry, I'm just going to watch every episode and see ig
Nebulla 4y
I think it's better to watch the movie and then season 2.
SpaceGecko 4y
I watched the movie first then season two and I think it makes more sense like that because there are things in season 2 that wont make a whole lot of sense if you don't have the context of what happens in the future from the movie
Taluun 4y
Given they are supposedly including new content, i don't know why anyone would watch the movie at this point.
- CitrusVand 4y
  Yup seems like this Arc is an extended version of the movie.
  Removed 4y
  yeah
- CoochieKong 4y
  better animation. How about you make these two separate entries now.
Sayne 4y
Just watch the movie and then watch the anime, all in all it doesn't rlly matter
BloodHedgehog 4y
Given that from my understanding the first seven episodes are the movie re-animated I see no reason to watch the movie but hey maybe it will make more sense? I dunno. I haven't seen the movie since it came out so I'm going into S2 blind anyway.
- Bersilin1609 4y
  The movie is not re-animated in S2, so if u watch only S2 u wont get the full content
  BloodHedgehog 4y
  Look I'm just going by what AniList has listed.

Watch episode one of season two because it takes place right after season 1, then choose between the movie and the season. Episodes 2-7 are basically the movie with extra scenes.
YeOldeBon 4y
the first episode of season 2 takes place before the movie and episode 2 to 7 are mugen train but again
- TheMinester 4y
  This 1st episode is just a filler. Iirc this whole slasher thing isn't even in the manga.
TheTrueSquid 4y
movie first because it is canon and happens directly after season 1 ends
- R1ZE 4y
  This will include movie +extra scenes so it's pretty much same
Serpant 4y
skip the movie, it's just the movie but with extra content.
j0hna11en 4y
watch the movie first
Tripsykun 4y
Watch the movie, you will get a lot of spoilers related to it from people while watching the second season.
Weeble 4y
the order is Demon Slayer season 1 > Mugen Train > Season 2

  Do i have to watch the movie before starting season 2?
Weeble 4y
no, the movie as of now appears to have been a blatant cash grab
- notv3l 4y
  but isn't the movie basically the train mission wouldn't missing out on the movie lead to a lot of missing information?
  Weeble 4y
  the start of season 2 is covering the mugen train
  notv3l 4y
  ah ok
- bigworld12 4y
  wait you guys pay for watching anime ?
  Weeble 4y
  Nah i pirate, just saying that the movie was a blatant cash grab

  Tru tho

  Are you stupid bro? All, and i mean ALL forms of entertainment are made to make money.
  Plus, what do you think the ones who lives in countries where Demon Slayer Mugen Train didnt run in cinemas? Should they be forced to pirate? The movie is essential to the plot too. Youre even pirating anime and still complaining.

  every 60 seconds in africa a minute passes.

  criticism like what i'd said is valid though.

  well than why make the movie if it's just gonna be in the next season regardless? It's a shitty cash grab that's going to be as milked out as the last battle of the manga
  Starlight 4y
  To create hype? Make more people interested in the anime and manga (which worked)

- Jabb 4y
  Bro what. By your definition all anime is just a cash grab, which it kinda is but you get my point.
  Weeble 4y
  by making a movie that was just gonna be the 1st 7 episodes of next season either way is a shitty cash grab that doesn't even build up hype except by those who're already fans of the series as it's a sequel to the 26 episode anime. it's called milking and it worked.
  
  they're literally going "Alright thanks for the money here's what you watched as 7 episodes of season 2."
  Disco 4y
  they added some stuff to the anime that wasn't in the manga or anime so it kinda is an improvement you could say.
OhRLY 4y
They are releasing the movie in an anime form. Just stay updated with that and you'll be ready for the Entertainment district
Removed 4y
No, the first 7 ep' that are coming out now (beside the 1st cause it's anime canon) are the same as the movie just in ep' version, they cover everything so u don't have to watch the movie. the second season officially starts at the 8th ep'
drago428 4y
Watching order - Demon slayer season 1 then movie or demon slayer 2 . Demon slayer 2 first 7 eps and mugen train movie is same. But 8th ep will be continuation from mugrn train arc

Fate/Zero > Unlimited blade works season 1 and 2 > Heavens Feel 1 2 3
- NurAhmad 4y
  Ummm...He talking about Demon Slayer
  carrotismommy 4y
  Oh my bad, I heard watch order and my senses were tingling.
  MetaStag 4y
  90% of the time we see a "watch order" thread it's either fate or monogatari so understandable lol
- BallisticBro 4y
  I disagree Fate/Zero (2011) is a prequel anime made after the Fate/stay night (2004) visual novel and Fate/hollow Ataraxia (2005) sequel visual novel. Now I haven't actually watched Fate/Zero yet but I've spent time reading through the Fate communities comments related to this and it sounds like Fate/Zero has major spoilers for Fate/stay night that can actually ruin the reveals since from your perspective its just common knowledge at that point whilst if you watch Fate/stay night you do get spoiled on things in Fate/Zero but they're far less impactful. Ideally you would atleast read the Fate route (sabers route) from the visual novel and then watch Unlimited Blade Works season 1 and 2 > Heavens Feel 1 2 3 > Fate/Zero. Just refer to this: https://www.reddit.com/r/fatestaynight/comments/df8rvo/rfatestaynights_official_viewing_order_guide_v2/
  carrotismommy 4y
  Bruh ubw spoils one of the biggest things that happens in fate/zero.
  BallisticBro 4y
  well like I said I haven't watched Fate/Zero yet myself so I'm unaware of what exactly you're referring to, but if you read through the comments of fate fans most seem to agree that watching Fate/Zero first is not the intended order and that Fate/Zero spoils Fate/stay night far more than the other way around.
- Removed 4y
  I've been thinking of starting fate. Do I need to watch Fate/Stay night before unlimited blade works? I heard that they are quite different.
  MetaStag 4y
  Nope, they both are different routes. Everyone says the fate/stay night made by Studio DEEN is a bad adaptation and it tries to merge all 3 routes, so.... don't watch it, start UBW.
  But yeah, if you want you can watch it later
  BallisticBro 4y
  this link should help, it really isn't as complicated as people make it out to be (atleast for the main plotline) https://www.reddit.com/r/fatestaynight/comments/df8rvo/rfatestaynights_official_viewing_order_guide_v2/

First episode of season 2 > Movie > Episodes 2-7 (If u want rewatch the movie)
Hentaro 4y
You can just skip on the movie if you're watching season 2 since they're releasing it again for some reason. However since season 2's still ongoing and the real stuff will start airing from the 5th of December, you can just watch the 2 hour movie to get ahead of the anime

  I finished season 1 and I now want to start season 2? How do I start it? Do I watch episode 1 of season 2 then the mugen train arc or do I watch mugen train then season 2 normally? I heard something about watching episode 1 of season 2 first then mugen train that's why I am a little confused
  
  Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Resshahen TV
  Kimetsu no Yaiba Yuukakuhen
Hyliaforce 4y
Mugen Train TV version is the same as the movie but the first episode takes place between season 1 and the movie
- Yanse 4y
  Ohh okay that's probably what got me something about the 1st episode. Thank you I will just start watching mugen train arc now then.
  Tripsykun 4y
  Just watch the first episode of mugen train arc then watch the movie
  Yanse 4y
  Yeah I did watch the movie but I started rewatching demon slayer season 1 and might as well just watch the tv version since I dislike watching movies alone.
