Demon Slayer Season 4 Episode 5 To Feature Show's Most Heartbreaking Sibling Talk; Here's What It Is
Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc Episode 5 drops on Sunday. Here's what we can expect from the upcoming installment lending a glimpse into Tanjiro's training.
Demon Slayer introduces Sanemi and Genya, initially antagonistic but later becoming fan favorites due to their tragic backstory and complex relationship dynamics. Their strained relationship began when Sanemi witnessed their siblings' deaths due to their mother's demon transformation.
Sanemi had to save their mother, rejecting the idea that Nezuko doesn't attack humans. The next episode of Demon Slayer's Hashira arc will focus on their strained relationship and past, highlighting the complex dynamics of their relationship.
Demon Slayer season 4 episode 5 will have an emotional Sanemi and Genya interaction
Sanemi and Genya's first encounter with demons had a lasting impact, pushing Sanemi to enlist in the Corps and pursue demons tirelessly. Even though he may come off as tough on Genya, he truly cares for his younger brother, making sure he is safe and taken care of. Their complex bond is defined by love and worry, with Sanemi's tough exterior acting as a shield for Genya.
As evident from the episode preview, the upcoming Hashira Training Arc episode 5 will be titled I Even Ate Demons. This strongly suggests that the episode will likely focus on Genya Shinazugawa, as he is the only known Demon Slayer who has eaten demons to gain strength.
Fans have taken to Twitter to express how they are not ready for the upcoming episode. "Even i’ll be protecting genya i fear," a fan said.
"Hard to defend my glorious king that does no wrong on this one ngl," another fan shared.
"i ain’t ready to see this animated.." One fan commented.
Another fan took the opportunity to mention how the upcoming episode will only lead the fans into mischaracterizing Sanemi due to his portrayal, even though his actual intentions will soon be revealed.
"Please god no.. the mischaracterization of Sanemi is gonna be WICKED," another fan said.
"Genuinely I’m scared to watch that," one fan shared.
"Ufotable built Sanemi up in preparation for this moment. SSV ep 6 & the first three EPs of HT made us forget about Nezuko now people are about to do a 180," a fan said.
Episode 5 of the Demon Slayer Hashira Training arc will be released on Sunday, June 9, 2024.
A brief about the characters of Sanemi and Genya
Sanemi Shinazugawa is a major supporting character in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. He serves in the Demon Slayer Corps as the current Wind Hashira. As a Hashira, Sanemi is an exceptionally powerful and skilled combatant, demonstrating his extraordinary abilities and proficiency in combat on multiple occasions. During a sparring session with Giyu Tomioka, Sanemi was able to fight on equal footing with the Water Hashira.
Sanemi is abrasive, hot-blooded, rash, and stubborn, often impulsive and quick to lash out. He generally displays indifference towards others and can become extremely angry very easily. The only person Sanemi has shown deep respect for was Kagaya Ubuyashiki, a reverence that developed only after he realized that Ubuyashiki was much more than he appeared to be. Additionally, Sanemi has a keen hunger for battle, eagerly wishing to encounter Upper-Rank demons and expressing his excitement about fighting Upper-Rank One, Kokushibo.
Genya Shinazugawa is a major supporting character in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. He is a member of the Demon Slayer Corps and one of only five survivors of the Final Selection. Unlike many of his peers, Genya does not utilize a Breathing Style, yet he maintains a strong foundation as a Demon Slayer.
His skills were highlighted during the battle against Hantengu, the fourth strongest Upper-Rank demon, where he stealthily approached two of Hantengu's clones, shot them, and then quickly decapitated both.
Genya is the younger brother and only living sibling of Sanemi Shinazugawa. Their relationship deteriorated after a demon attack that killed their family; Genya, misunderstanding the circumstances, accused Sanemi of being a "murderer." This accusation led to their eventual estrangement.
During the battle with Kokushibo, it is revealed that despite their strained relationship, Sanemi still deeply cared for Genya and wished for him to lead a normal life, free from the threat of demons. Moved by this revelation, Genya tearfully apologized for his earlier misjudgment.
After their confrontation with Kokushibou, Genya once again apologized for his accusations and expressed gratitude towards Sanemi for his protection. Tragically, he succumbed to his wounds soon after, crumbling into dust and leaving Sanemi overwhelmed with grief.
