Demon Slayer S2 - 01 [Dual] Kimetsu no Yaiba

Demon Slayer Season 2 Episode 1

Man of Fire
Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku is enjoying his meal inside a soba shop when another Demon Corps member comes in to join him. He congratulates Flame Hashira for his great job last night, but the enemy is still at large.

The shop owner tells them that business hasn’t been quite good because of a killer on the loose. There was an attack on a train conductor nights ago with some suspicious incidents on a train. Kyojuro goes to the station to investigate. He asks the station’s bento sellers if a demon incident recently occurred.

The shopkeeper denies it, but they’ve heard of a Ripper murdering at night. Kyojuro buys all of their bento boxes and assures them he’ll take care of the Ripper. He gives the extra boxes to his junior and prepares to board the train.

The shopkeepers close up and head home, sensing danger in the air.

A conductor finds Kyojuro alone on the train. He tells him they’re headed for the garage. Kyojuro wants to go there to find the Mugen Train, but the conductor tells him it was moved for maintenance.

Kyojuro then jumps from the train to the maintenance facility. He tells the maintenance workers that he’s there to deliver bento from the railway administrators. He learns that the train was forced to retire due to its haunted reputation, but it should go back into service after maintenance.
The Ripper
Kyojuro is alarmed. He suddenly hears one of the workers shout from within, so he finds a demon holding a young worker hostage. Kyojuro challenges the Ripper, who insults the food he’s brought.

The demon launches an attack, blitzing through the facility while carrying his hostage. He claims to be the fastest of them all and admits to killing a woman the night before.

Kyojuro tells him they rescued the woman, and she is recuperating. The demon smirks, saying the woman should be traumatized even if she recovers. Kyojuro refutes him, saying they’ll also heal her heart.

The demon then threatens the bento sellers, which pressures Flame Hashira. The Ripper digs his claws into the hostage, prompting Kyojuro to cut off his arms with a quick strike. Seeing the opportunity, the demon rushes away through the train tracks.

Kyojuro applies first aid to the hostage and waits for reinforcements to arrive. He leaves the victim to his juniors and follows the trail of the Ripper.
