Meanwhile, Demon Slayer Season 4 adapts the Hashira Training arc, where the Hashira focus on preparing yourself to face Muzan Kibutsuji and an army of upper moon ibilists.

On the other hand, you can also find epic battles in Season 4. For example, the battle between Muichihiro Tokito oppose Sanemi Shinazugawa and the absolutely stunning Obanai Iguro.
In the final episode, you will also witness the fight Gyomei Himejima and Muzan Kubutsuji which is packed with cool animations and charming graphics.
Factors Affecting Release Schedule
As we have mentioned above, the release schedule for each season is always different. This is because there are several factors that must be considered, such as:
Animation Production Process
The first factor, high-quality animation certainly takes a long time to work on. Meanwhile, Ufotable is known for its dedication to detail. So, they need more time for their anime output to have above average quality.
Market Strategy
We can't deny that Demon Slayer is one of the most popular and profitable franchises in the anime world. Therefore, producers will choose the right release time to maximize fan enthusiasm and merchandise sales.
Manga Adaptation
Finally, the remaining arcs in the manga are quite dense and action-packed. To maintain the quality of the story, Ufotable will most likely split the adaptation into multiple seasons or a film trilogy.
