It’s undeniable that Ufotable continues to shape the landscape of Japanese animation with its work on Demon Slayer.

Now that the fourth season has premiered, fans are looking forward to another visual spectacle that will break the internet again.

  1. Tanjiro Meets Muzan for the First Time

    Ufotable did an excellent job of recreating the vibrant streets of Asakusa when Tanjiro first met Muzan in the first season.

    It is the turning point in the story, as Tanjiro cautiously approaches the man who will send shivers down his spine for the entirety of the series.

    As Muzan held his gaze at Tanjiro for the first time, the audience was expected to react with a mix of amusement and contempt.

    It was an incredible moment, even though they did not fight.

  2. Tanjiro Sees the Wisteria Forest

    In the first season of Demon Slayer, Tanjiro discovers a stunning scene in the heart of the forest, where the Final Selection takes place.

    He notices the wisteria blooms, which cast a golden tint over the winding paths and towering trees.

    It also formed a captivating purple canopy, which added to Tanjiro's and the viewers' sense of enchantment.

    Tanjiro, who has spent many years in the mountains, is astounded by the sight of the Wisteria Forest!

  3. Young Tanjiro Sees His Father’s Flame Dance

    Despite his delicate body, Tanjuro Kamado performed the flame dance to Tanjiro with elegance and precision, highlighting the technique's beauty and power.

    It is not only a display of martial expertise but also a poignant reminder of Tanjiro's closeness with his father. It has a deeper importance for Tanjiro, who has always admired his father's legacy.

  4. The Infinity Castle's Hauntingly Beautiful Sequence

    Despite its eerie atmosphere, the Infinity Castle sequence is breathtaking. It's a visually spectacular setting full of artistic constructions, meandering passages, shifting roads, and strange scenery.

    As its name suggests, the Infinity Castle defies the rules of physics, stretching indefinitely with no end in sight.

    It has an imposing presence, complementing the backdrop for the series' most terrifying demons.

  5. Mitsuri Fights Hantengu in the Swordsmith Village

    Fans of Mitsuri were treated to a visual spectacle in the Swordsmith Village arc as she faced off against the demon Hantengu in a fierce duel of power and determination.

    Under the light of the moon, Mitsuri unleashes a flurry of powerful but graceful attacks to counter Hantengu’s wood manipulation.

    It's as if Mitsuri is a magical girl who defeats the ultimate boss with grace using her unique Nichirin blade.

  6. Rengoku Fights Akaza to Death

    This list would be incomplete without the Rengoku vs. Akaza fight, which put the animators' skills and abilities to the test while providing spectators with a visually stunning and emotionally devastating scene.

    As flames flare and shadows dance, Rengoku and Akaza's battle is filled with energy and ferocity. Rengoku's blazing attacks illuminate the darkness, and each strike from his sword takes our breath away.

  7. Nezuko Overcomes the Sun

    This list would also be incomplete without Nezuko, who shines brightly in the final episode of the Swordsmith Village arc.

    It was a historic event for anime fans who are looking forward to the day when Nezuko can walk underneath the sun for the first time.

    It sent viewers on an emotional roller coaster, with some believing that Nezuko would turn into ashes like other demons who couldn't survive the sun.

    What awaits viewers is a wonderful scene in which Nezuko finally smiles at Tanjiro, giving him new hope for their future.

  8. Tanjiro Faces Rui, the Spider Demon

    One of the most talked-about fight scenes in Demon Slayer is Tanjiro's confrontation with Spider-Demon Rui, which is a beautiful but horrific match to death.

    It highlighted the beauty of Tanjiro's water breathing techniques, with each strike imbued with the force and fluidity of rushing water. He also used the Hinokami Kagura for the first time, which took fans' breaths away.

    It will always be regarded as one of the most stunning scenes in Demon Slayer, a feast for the eyes and an astounding feat for the animators who continue to work tirelessly to put the series on the map.

  9. Uzui Fights Gyutaro in the Entertainment District

    The Entertainment District arc is packed with stunning scenes that we couldn't believe Ufotable managed to pull off such a dramatic fight between Tengen Uzui and Gyutaro.

    Their battle scenes were animated with amazing speed, ferocity, and drive, and they traded strikes with lethal precision.

    The fighting animation is smooth and dynamic, with Uzui showcasing his mastery of sound techniques to counter Gyutaro's strikes.
