So me personally I kinda hate the very start of demon slayer seasons they’re really slow for me, my filler senses are tingling is this whole season gonna be filler until the infinity castle arc. Only watch demon slayer for the fights so just wanna know if it lives up to season 2 in terms of that

If by filler, you are referring to no action, then Yes, this is pretty much a training arc. Nothing significant happens other than probably character development.

if by filler, you mean original content, then no... They'll be adapting the manga and probably some contents from the Gaiden spin-off(I'm not sure if This'll be adapted).

I mean filler wise demon slayer has no filler. But to answer your question about fights. This arc is literally just a training/Lore arc.

Yes, they already added quite a bit in episode 1 (but to be fair some of it was fighting). Maybe there will be some cool dueling between Hashiras as part of the training but don't expect a fight of high proportions like S2 had.

It's not filler. It will be mostly infidump without any high priority fights.

i think demon slayer should not have added filler in the movie and should have animated full hashira traning arc because it's only 9 chapters

So according to you whatever scene which don't have fighting one is a filler? Talk about warped knowledge.

This Hashira training arc isn't filler, but well since you are an action freak simply skip the arc, you wouldn't appreciate it anyway.

“Only watch demon slayer for the fights”

Well have fun with the Hashira Training Arc, an arc that barely has any fights whatsoever and instead a bunch of infodumps and lore exposition.

Filler are not boring/no action episodes. Filler are something that are not on the original content, and created only for the anime.

It's definitely going to feel like filler until we get to THAT part.

if the leaks are true that it will be 8 episodes it will have a lot of fillers for sure since its only a 9 chapters manga arc

even though the arc itself is canon, the anime seems to have a lot of fillers and made-up stuff that didnt actually happen in the story, not sure why they did it that way this time, they could have just adapted some of the infinity castle arc if it has to be 8 episodes long, instead of putting irrelevant material that is not in the manga

It will definitely feel like a filler season. I expect poll rankings to do good at the start but collapse as they get in. Similiar to the score. Ufotable is banking on the rumored movies anyways. There is a reason why this season only has 8 episodes vs combining it with another season.
