The only saving grace to the movie was the inclusion of the first episode of the Swordsmith Village arc, even though the first episode tease seemed like it was dragging out content for time too. It also had a small tease of the Mist Hashira, Muichiro Tokito. This was also another point to what sort of saved the film. Sure, a recap from last season was good, but this was just a straight copy of the episodes adapted to the big screen. Eventually, it got to the first episode of the Swordsmith Village arc.

One of the most interesting tidbits to come out of Kibutsuji's talk with his Upper Rank demons is a remark he makes in passing. With little to go on, Tanjiro and Nezuko set out to explore the village in hopes of finding this weapon. However, the biwa demon tells the others she summoned the Upper One first, and he has been listening to their shenanigans the whole time. The Upper Fourth has a more demon-than-human face with large horns protruding from his head. If the Upper Rank demons are somehow clinging to their humanity, perhaps Nezuko isn't the only demon who can be saved. There are some exceptions, however, when the demons use their powers to transform or when they become warped by the number of lives they have taken. Kibutsuji questions why the Upper Rank demons even exist anymore because they are not living up to his expectations. Kibutsuji is upset by this historical loss and takes his anger out on his surviving subordinates, in particular, the Upper Rank Five demon. As Tanjiro recovers at the Butterfly Mansion, he is cared for by Naho, Kiyo, and Sumi, the three darling butterfly girls. While he is not the only one to suffer injuries, Tanjiro's are severe enough that he falls into a coma for two months. Following the events of the Entertainment District arc, Tanjiro, Inosuke, Zenitsu, and Uzui are badly injured after an epic battle with the Upper Rank Six demon Gyutaro and his sister, Daki. [intense battle between Gyutaro and Uzui](https://www.cbr.com/demon-slayer-fights-tanjiro-almost-lost/) play out on the big screen is nothing short of amazing.

Japanese animation film "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – To The Swordsmith Village" won at the Korean box office on its opening weekend.
The mean ticket price figure masks a growing disparity between titles and the increasing significance of premium screens (and their premium pricing). “Slam Dunk” picked up $943,000 over the weekend for cumulative of $30.5 million since Jan. But the $9.39 million Friday-Sunday aggregate is still a long way shy of an average weekend in the pre-COVID era. The vastly lower head count may cause cinema operators to rethink the number of venues they keep in operation. “Ant-Man” earned $513,000 for a cumulative of $12.3 million after three weekends. Inserting itself in ninth place was “Suzume,” the Japanese hit animation which played as previews and official opened in Korean theaters on Wednesday. Last year they accounted for 7.7% of tickets sold and 10.9% of box office by value. And they relegated previous chart-topper “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” from first to sixth. “Demon Slayer” opened on Thursday and earned $2.94 million over four days. The three new openers pushed “The First Slam Dunk,” another Japanese animation that had played since January, from second place to fourth. Local charts show another new release, Korean-made crime drama “The Devil’s Deal,” leading the field. “The Devil’s Deal” released on Wednesday and scored a total of $3.81 million over five days.
