Movie vs. TV Cut — Which Should I Watch?
The Mugen Train movie and Season 2 (Eps 1–7) tell the same core story. The TV version adds a new Episode 1 (Rengoku prelude) and a few extended scenes. If you watched the movie, you can skip the TV cut—just start from Season 2 Episode 8.
Filler / Recap Guide
Demon Slayer has almost no filler. Outside of recap specials and the TV re-edit of Mugen Train, the episodes are canon. If you’re rewatching, you can skip recap compilations safely.
Where to watch (region varies)
Availability changes by country. Check major legal platforms like Crunchyroll, Netflix, and Prime Video. If a season is missing in your region, look for the movie or TV cut alternative.
Do I watch the movie and the TV cut?
No—pick one. Movie for pace, TV cut if you want the added Episode 1 and a few extra scenes.
Is there a chronological order different from release?
Not meaningfully—this series is already released in chronological progression.
