Attention, Demon Slayer Corps members and film aficionados alike! Prepare for a substantial cinematic experience. Details regarding the official runtime for the highly anticipated movie, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle (also known by its Japanese title, Mugen Jou-hen), have been officially revealed, and it`s set to be a considerable commitment of your time.
According to recent reports, the film will clock in at an impressive 2 hours and 35 minutes, totaling 155 minutes. In the realm of animation, particularly feature films, this is a notably lengthy runtime, suggesting a deep and comprehensive adaptation of its source material.
Putting this into perspective, this isn`t just long for an anime film; it competes with, and in fact, surpasses, the duration of some major Hollywood blockbusters. For a striking comparison, the *Infinity Castle* movie is confirmed to be longer than both Marvel`s Avengers: Infinity War, which ran for 149 minutes, and Avengers: Age of Ultron, with a runtime of 141 minutes. It seems the Demon Slayer universe is ready to take on cinematic titans not just in popularity, but now, quite literally, in sheer screen time.
This considerable length strongly indicates that the film is poised to cover a significant and pivotal portion of Koyoharu Gotouge`s original manga – specifically, the climactic “Infinity Castle” arc. Fans of the manga understand the scale, intensity, and emotional weight contained within this storyline, and a 155-minute runtime suggests the animation studio Ufotable intends to give this critical arc the expansive treatment it deserves.
The Demon Slayer franchise, set in early 20th-century Japan where demon hunters battle man-eating creatures, has become a global phenomenon since the anime series debuted in 2019. Its previous cinematic outing, *Demon Slayer: Mugen Train*, broke box office records worldwide, proving the immense appetite for high-quality animated adaptations of this dark fantasy epic.
With a runtime that promises thoroughness and scale, anticipation is naturally building. The Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle movie is currently scheduled for release on September 12, 2025. Fans can look forward to a film that, based on its length, is geared towards being a definitive and perhaps breathtaking adaptation of one of the manga`s most crucial arcs.
