Who is Zohakuten?

Demon Slayer Season 3, Episode 7, shows Tanjiro failing to cut Hantengu's neck before a sudden new threat arrives. Tanjiro tries to react in time, but fails because he is confused about what this new entity is. However, he realizes that none of the Emotion Demons are in the area as before, and through Genya, it is explained that Zohakuten (which represents "Hatred") began with the Anger Demon Sekido, who then quickly absorbed his brothers and transformed into the powerful Zohakuten.

Able to stop Tanjiro simply by tapping him on the back, Zohakuten believes he is the hero in this situation, as he sees Tanjiro and the others as despicable villains for wanting to "kill" a little demon.

The anime adaptation of the Blacksmith Village arc will have a total of 11 episodes. Therefore, the final episode of season 3 will premiere at the end of June.

Synopsis:

After defeating Upper Moon 6 in the Entertainment District, Tanjiro must travel to the Blacksmith Village to forge a new sword, as his old one has been damaged. However, along the way, he encounters new demons sent by Muzan, the main villain, with a mission to kill the blacksmiths. Without the blacksmiths, the hunters will have no swords to fight the demons. So Tanjiro and his friends must fight the demons of the Upper Moons again to stop them.

Thus, the first season of Kimetsu no Yaiba premiered in April 2019 , becoming a hit with the film. Finally, the second season premiered on December 5, 2021, in Japan. Additionally, the third season premiered on Crunchyroll following the release of the film To the Swordsmith Village – World Tour on February 2 in Japan.
