Akihabara News (Tokyo) — In the twenty-third episode of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Tanjiro gets the approval from the Master to travel with his sister and is reunited with Zenitsu and Inosuke. The Hashiras have their annual meeting.
The episode begins with Nezuko staring down Sanemi Shinazugawa and the blood dripping from his hands. She remembers her family and human instincts and turns away from him. This confirms the Master’s statement that she is a harmless demon.
The Master, Kagaya Ubuyashiki, judges that they may continue fighting demons as a pair to prove themselves and win over the rest of the Hashiras that remained skeptical.
On command, two Kakushis, the clean up crew of the demon slayers, take Tanjiro and Nezuko back to Shinobu Kocho’s mansion for healing and rehabilitation.
Outside the mansion, they encounter Kanao Tsuyuri, a girl Tanjiro had met previously during the Final Selection. The Kakushis inform him that she is trained by the Hashira is swordsmanship.
Tanjiro is taken into the mansion where he hears Zenitsu crying about not wanting to take his medication. His limbs are still deformed from the spider venom. Tanjiro is overjoyed to see him alive and whining.
Next to him lays Inosuke, silently. His vocal chords were damaged when he was nearly strangled to death by the father demon. He is depressed that he was weaker than he thought. Tanjiro is just glad that he is still alive.
Nezuko is given her own room to reside in.
Meanwhile, the Hashira conduct their annual meeting with Ubuyashiki. They take note of the rampant demon activities lately and conclude that Mount Natagumo was merely a distraction from Muzan Kibutsuji. The Hashiras claim that the quality of demon slayers has decreased, and they need stronger people.
Once the meeting concludes, the episode ends with the Master vowing to himself that Kibutsuji will be defeated.
