Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Episode 61: The Strongest of the Demon Slayer Corps

Tanjiro and Zenitsu travel into the mountains to reach Gyomei Himejima’s training grounds, where they reunite with Inosuke and Murata. The episode focuses on the harshness of Himejima’s physical training and the difficult atmosphere surrounding it.

At the training site, the main exercise is standing under a powerful waterfall and enduring its force and freezing temperature. Tanjiro starts the drill but quickly struggles, finding the water both painfully cold and heavy to withstand.

The episode also shows that the training is already well underway for others at the site, including Inosuke, who is seen training in the waterfall area alongside other Demon Slayers. Tanjiro’s arrival highlights how intense and unforgiving Himejima’s regimen is, setting up the larger challenge of proving himself under the strongest of the Hashira.
