Akihabara News (Tokyo) — In the fifteenth episode of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, the three demon slayers, Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke recover from their injuries and head off on another demon slaying assignment together.
The episode begins with Zenitsu expressing his infatuation for Tanjiro’s demon sister Nezuko. Tanjiro tries to keep him away from her.
Meanwhile, Inosuke is taken aback by the kindness and care he receives from the family in the wisteria house.
Once the doctor notifies the boys that they are fully healed, the Kasugai Crow assigns them to another mission, this time at Mount Natagumo in the northwest.
On their journey, it becomes evident that Inosuke has never had a person care for him. He seems baffled and does not understand why the family in the wisteria house cared for his wellbeing when they did not even know him.
As they arrive the base of the mountain, Zenitsu hesitates in fear. He does not like the eerie vibe of the dark mountain.
Tanjiro also smells danger. They see an injured demon slayer walk out of the mountains only to be snatched back by some invisible threads. Tanjiro and Inosuke run in pursuit of the demon slayer. Zenitsu stays put.
As they enter the mountain, they meet another demon slayer, Murata. He explains to them that he was assigned on this mission with several other demon slayers. Once they entered, most of them turned and attacked each other. A lot of them died.
Just then, a few unconscious bodies of demon slayers turn up and start attacking them like puppets on a string.
Tanjiro notices that they are controlled by spider webs. He picks up an acrid smell but cannot pinpoint the source.
Outside the mountain, Zenitsu realizes that Tanjiro has taken Nezuko with him. He immediately runs after the boys to protect Nezuko.
A small arachnid-looking demon boy shows up walking on threads, appearing as if he is floating. He warns Tanjiro and Inosuke to stop or else his mother will kill them instantly.
Inosuke uses his spatial awareness to locate the mother.
The episode ends with the demon boy stating that he and his family of five are living in the mountains and intend to do so for a long time.
