Although it ended in 2015, Demon Slayer's popularity has not stopped growing at all. In fact, the popularity of the series has grown significantly over the past few years, largely due to the movie Infinity Castle. It premiered in 2025 and hit the whole world. It was such an exceptional movie that even non-anime fans watched it.
Will there ever be a Demon Slayer season 5?
Demon Slayer may release a fifth season after the end of the trilogy.
Demon Slayer Infinity Castle set another record
Almost a year after its release, Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Movie is still breaking records. Recently, the film's earnings exceeded ¥40,023,943,700, which is roughly equal to $252 million. With this achievement, it became only the second Japanese film to ever reach such a height.
Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle has quickly become one of the most iconic anime projects of recent years. While the film's plot polarized some viewers, most people agree that the animation was incredible.

Production credit goes to ufotable. The studio staff worked really hard to create a masterpiece and without their efforts the film would never have reached the heights it did.
Demon Slayer Infinity Castle part 2 is probably in production
After the success of the first film, it was obvious that ufotable would be working extra hard on Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 2. Because there is a lot of expectation from the film. Not only will it have to be equal to number one in terms of story, but the animation will also have to be at a similar level.
There are rumors that Infinity Castle Part 2 is deep in production, but the studio has yet to announce a release date. It's possible that ufotable hasn't reached an internal milestone yet and thus hasn't released any further details about the film.
But if one were to guess, Demon Slayer Infinity Castle Part 2 will probably be released sometime in 2027. Many sources have indicated that ufotable plans to wrap up the Infinity Castle trilogy by 2030. Given the quality of the first film, a three-year production period sounds like a safe bet.
