Kimetsu no Yaiba: Yuukaku-hen

Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui

Akaza meets Muzan, now disguised as a young boy, who reveals his disappointment on Akaza for not being able to kill the other three Demon Slayers other than Kyojuro. Akaza vows to kill Tanjiro as the latter goes to meet Kyojuro’s brother Senjuro and his father. Their father, a former Flame Hashira but now an alcoholic who detests the Demon Slayers and sees both of his sons as failures, dismisses Tanjiro violently. However, when he sees Tanjiro’s earrings, he explains to him he is a bearer of the first breathing technique, called “Sun Breathing”. Tanjiro headbutts him for disrespecting Kyojuro, knocking him out. Later, Senjuro thanks Tanjiro for passing him his brother’s messages. Four months after Kyojuro's death, Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke accompany the Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui to their next mission - infiltrating the famed Yoshiwara red-light district, where demons are said to reside.

Infiltrating the Entertainment District

In order to investigate the suspected demonic presence in Yoshiwara, Tengen had sent his three wives to infiltrate the three largest courtesan Houses in the district. However, having stopped receiving messages from them, he has started worry for their safety. As such, Tengen disguises Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu as girls and sells them to the three Houses in which his wives were deployed, in order to find clues to their fate and whereabouts. Though with some difficulty, all three Demon Slayers are accepted to work at the Houses. As Tengen surveys the district from the rooftops, it is revealed that Makio, one of Tengen's wives, is held captive in a secluded room in Inosuke's House, being restrained by numerous obi, and enduring interrogation from a mysterious female voice.

What Are You?

Inosuke investigates a room he believes to be Makio's, expecting to face a demon, but finds the room disheveled and empty. However, he quickly senses something moving through the ceiling and walls, and starts a pursuit, though to no avail. Meanwhile, in his own House, Zenitsu defends a girl from being scolded by Warabihime, the House's beautiful but intimidating Oiran. Zenitsu recognizes her as a demon but is attacked by her in anger. A few days before the mission, the madam of the house confronts Warabihime, having figured out her identity, but Warabihime kills her by dropping her onto the street from a great height. When Warabihime returns inside, she is greeted by Muzan. Muzan praises the demon, noting her strength and beauty, and addressing her by her demon name Daki: the Upper Rank Six. Later, Zenitsu wakes up, having been taken care of by the girls he had defended, and they thank him for standing his ground. After they leave, Zenitsu is stealthily captured by Daki.

Tonight

Tanjiro and Inosuke meet to exchange information. Inosuke claims his House has a demon, but their conversation is interrupted by Tengen. Realizing Zenitsu is missing, Tengen dismisses Tanjiro and Inosuke, not wanting them to risk their lives for his needs. The two refuse to abandon him and re-arm for battle. Shedding his disguise completely, Tanjiro approaches the Oiran of his house, who had been aware of him being a male the whole time, and bids her farewell. Meanwhile, Tengen questions the master of Zenitsu's House at knifepoint, aiming to gain information about the demon. Having just left his House, Tanjiro detects a scent coming from its direction and decides to return, only to be confronted by Daki, who has absorbed the Oiran into her obi. The two begin to fight, and Daki easily overpowers Tanjiro with her numerous obi sashes. With the impact of her attacks, one of the straps on Nezuko's box breaks, meaning Tanjiro can no longer carry her and has to leave her stationary. Realizing she will be the strongest demon he's faced thus far, Tanjiro readies himself to face Daki alone. (Source: Wikipedia)

Things Are Gonna Get Real Flashy!!

Battling Daki by himself, Tanjiro tries to use his Hinokami Kagura but realizes the fatigue on his body is preventing him from fighting effectively. Elsewhere, Inosuke discovers an incredibly narrow passageway under his House, leading to a cavern which appears to serve as a holding cell, full of obi that Daki has used to absorb her victims. This obi turns out to be an entity that can function independently from Daki's body, and Inosuke first attempts to slay it, but decides to prioritize freeing the people trapped inside. Overwhelmed, he nevertheless manages to free Suma and Makio – two of Tengen's wives – as well as Zenitsu, all of whom assist him in his fight, before being joined by Tengen himself.

Layered Memories

As Tanjiro and Daki battle, Daki causes immense destruction to the district, taking the lives of numerous innocents. The enraged Tanjiro retaliates with an incredibly powerful series of Hinokami Kagura attacks, nearly slashing her neck, though Daki saves herself by transforming her neck into an obi, making it difficult to cut. The two continue fighting, and Daki starts to see distant memories of a similar figure to Tanjiro, memories which she surmises must belong to Muzan's cells in her body. Unleashing another barrage of attacks, Tanjiro nearly cuts Daki's neck again; however, he had been fighting without breathing, and a vision from his late sister saves him from suffocating. He collapses, struggling to catch his breath. When Daki approaches the injured Tanjiro, Nezuko appears and destroys her head with a kick. Daki remembers Muzan talking about Nezuko as a rogue demon who must be exterminated, and begins fighting her. Daki seemingly bisects Nezuko with ease, but is stunned to see her incredible regenerative power. Biting through her bamboo muzzle, Nezuko matures in appearance, and faces Daki, filled with rage. (Source:Wikipedia)

Transformation

Nezuko fights Daki, and despite taking major injuries, she regenerates them almost instantly, causing the shocked Daki to proclaim that Nezuko's regenerative ability is stronger than her own. Nezuko brutally attacks Daki, completely overwhelming her, and throws her into an inhabited building. While Daki heals, Nezuko notices that one of the civilians is bleeding. Blinded by her rage, her demonic bloodlust kicks in and she goes to attack the civilian, before Tanjiro intervenes, restraining her. Tengen soon arrives and beheads Daki with ease, doubting she is as powerful as she claims. However, Daki does not die. Instead, she wails and cries, causing her brother Gyutaro to emerge from within her. Gyutaro, who is also the Upper Six alongside Daki, reattaches Daki's head, and, full of jealousy at Tengen's good looks, begins to fight him using his sickles and Blood Demon Art. Overwhelmed, Tengen struggles to stand his ground while protecting the civilians, as Daki and Gyutaro fight as one. Tanjiro manages to calm Nezuko down, just as Zenitsu and Inosuke arrive to help.

Gathering

Taking Nezuko back to her box, Tanjiro focuses on the coming battle despite his injuries. Tengen trades barbs with Gyutaro and Daki for their individual beliefs clashing together. As a young man, Tengen was brutally trained by his father as a member of the Shinobi, and wanting to avoid the path taken by his surviving brother, he approached Kagaya, alongside his wives, who commended him on striving away from his past. As they fight, he forces the siblings apart, but realises he was poisoned by Gyutaro's earlier cut. Tengen is suddenly joined by Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke, proceeding to praise and acknowledge the three. The district is evacuated by Suma and Makio, while Hinatsuru recovers and approaches the battle. Planning to behead them simultaneously, the clash is split as Daki engages Zenitsu and Inosuke, while Gyutaro clashes with Tengen and Tanjiro. Syncing their powers and fighting as one, the Upper Rank siblings overwhelm the Demon Slayers. However, Tanjiro, realizing his Water Breathing technique is more useful to defend himself, uses it instead of his Hinokami Kagura to fend of Gyutaro’s attacks. Hinatsuru interrupts the fight and fires a barrage of kunai laced with wisteria-based poison at Gyutaro, giving enough time for Tengen to slice off his legs, which do not regenerate quickly, and for Tanjiro to move in with his sword.

Defeating an Upper Rank Demon

Tengen remembers visiting his family grave alongside his wives, having promised them to live "the flashiest lives possible" in their honor. In the present, he and Tanjiro close into Gyutaro’s neck, but the demon has managed to neutralize the wisteria poison and regenerate both his legs. Using a new Blood Demon Art, he fends off Tengen and vanishes, suddenly appearing alongside Hinatsuru. Seeing her life in danger, Tengen reminisces on how he had promised his wives that they would retire from fighting, if they managed to defeat an Upper Rank demon. Unwilling to let another person die, Tanjiro combines his Hinokami Kagura and Water Breathing, unleashing a very fast charge that stuns the Upper Rank and saves Hinatsuru. Tengen shows him his gratitude and joins him in attempting again to slice off Gyutaro’s head, while Zenitsu and Inosuke continue to fend off Daki’s obi. Gyutaro stops the blades from hitting him and unleashes his Blood Demon Art again, forcing Tengen to throw himself and Gyutaro away to save Hinatsuru and Tanjiro. With Tengen continuing to fight Gyutaro alone, Tanjiro joins Zenitsu and Inosuke in battling Daki. Coordinating their attacks, Tanjiro and Zenitsu open the way for Inosuke, who saws off Daki’s head with his swords and runs away with it, preventing reattachment to her body. Without warning, Gyutaro appears and stabs Inosuke from behind through his chest, retrieving Daki’s head. Tanjiro turns around, only to see Tengen’s severed hand and unconscious body on the ground. Devastated for not being able to help Inosuke and Tengen in time, Tanjiro freezes. Zenitsu pushes him off the roof to save him from an incoming obi attack. (Source: Wikipedia)

Never Give Up

Tanjiro, having survived his fall, approaches Nezuko's box, and sees that she is still inside. Gyutaro arrives however, and mocks him for having been unable to defend her and his friends, slamming him around the burning remains of the city. With Tanjiro at his mercy, Gyutaro proposes he become a demon, willing to spare his life if he does; Tanjiro responds by head-butting him. Enraged, Gyutaro prepares to attack but is paralyzed by a wisteria kunai, stabbed in his leg when Tanjiro hit him. With the Upper Six immobilized, Tanjiro attempts to behead him with Hinokami Kagura once more. Daki sees this but is attacked by Zenitsu before she can kill Tanjiro, who attacks her with his fastest form yet. He manages to slice Daki's obi neck and begins to cut through. Gyutaro removes the kunai and quickly recovers from the poison. Before he can kill Tanjiro, Tengen, having slowed the poison's effects, intervenes, fighting with Gyutaro evenly despite his lost arm. Tanjiro sees his chance and slashes the demon's neck, getting stabbed through the jaw doing so. Fighting the pain, he unknowingly activates his demon slayer mark and begins to sever Gyutaro's neck. Meanwhile, Zenitsu's attack required a lot of energy and is beginning to falter, but he is joined by Inosuke; he reveals he moved his internal organs when he was stabbed, enabling Gyutaro's sickle to miss his heart. They join their swords on Daki's neck. The Demon Slayers then simultaneously behead the siblings, whose heads roll close to each other. As Tanjiro attempts to slow the poison, Tengen tells him to run, just as a large explosion erupts from Gyutaro's body, completely destroying the area. (Source: Wikipedia)

No Matter How Many Lives

Nezuko's box is sent flying during the explosion, but uses her Blood Demon Art to fall safely. Following the explosion, Tanjiro realizes he no longer is withstanding the effects of Gyutaro's poison, and asks himself why is he still alive. She reunites with Nezuko, overjoyed that she is still alive. He finds Zenitsu, back in his cowardly state as he has awakened, who guides him to a dying Inosuke. Nezuko uses a new healing Blood Demon Art on Inosuke, that ignites the poison in his body away, saving him. They find Tengen at the verge of death, surrounded by his wives, and Nezuko similarly saves him. Unable to move, Tanjiro asks Nezuko to carry him, where they go looking for the demon siblings' heads. They find them, arguing with each other over whose fault their defeat is, and insulting their relationship. As Tanjiro intervenes and comforts the demons, Gyutaro remembers his past life as a human. Born in the poorest slum of the entertainment district, his extreme ugliness meant he had a dire childhood, being treated by a monster by everyone. Unloved by anyone, things seemed to change when his sister Daki, whose real name was Ume, was born. Thanks to her beauty, Gyutaro began living a better life. However, as Ume turned 13, she brutally attacked a samurai with a hairpin, and was burned and left to die in retaliation. Finding her in a pit, Gyutaro is similarly attacked from behind, and left for dead, much to the perpetrators' delight. However, he survived, and murdered both of his assailants with a sickle, and as it started to snow, they are found by Douma, then the Upper Six demon. He offers them to become demons, and to eventually escalate to become Upper Ranks one day. Back in the present, Daki finishes disintegrating, dying in a rage of agony. Gyutaro meets with her in the passageway to Hell where they finally reconcile, and promise each other to be together for the rest of time. Gyutaro finishes disintegrating, and Tanjiro wonders if they managed to ammend their brotherhood. Obanai Iguro, the Snake Hashira, arrives and congratulates Tengen on the accomplishment of defeating an Upper Rank demon. However, Tengen remains steady on his desire to retire, and informs Obanai that Tanjiro is near his full potential, and is a good candidate to take over his spot. Back in the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters, an increasingly ill Kagaya is overjoyed at the news, and expresses his proudness in the three young Demon Slayers, noting that the feat of defeating Muzan is not too far away. Meanwhile, Akaza is summoned at the Infinity Castle, and realizes one of his fellow Upper Ranks has been defeated. Tanjiro reunites and emotionally embraces with Zenitsu and Inosuke, happy to be alive, amongst the ruins of the entertainment district. (Source: Wikipedia)
