The year 2025 is set to be a thrilling one for all the Demon Slayer fans as the anime gears up for its new movie Demon Slayer: The Infinity Castle Arc Movie which will be released on 12th September, 2025. The Demon Slayer franchise is known for its breathtaking animation and intense action battle sequences. However, one surprising revelation has left fans wondering, Nezuko Kamado will not be a part of this arc. Let’s find out why this fan theory of Nezuko’s absence from the movie makes sense.
The Key To Victory
Nezuko Kamado is not only a fan favorite but her special powers makes her an ideal target for the series main villian, Muzan Kibutsuji who is the demon king. Having conquered her vulnerability to sunlight, Nezuko became Muzan’s sole fixation. His focus shifted from hunting for the rare blue spider lilies, which temporarily healed his human disease, to capturing Nezuko and discovering the mystery behind her immunity.

Why Nezuko Must Be Kept Away From Muzan
Muzan sees Nezuko as the key to achieving a perfect, immortal body. If he could capture her and understand the source of her ability then he would be able to eliminate his greatest vulnerability that this sunlight which would eventually make him unstoppable, sealing humanity’s fate. Given Muzan’s deep understanding of demon biology, the risk of him experimenting with Nezuko might cost her life so keeping her far away from Muzan would be the only way to prevent him from gaining the ultimate power. Hence fans believe Nezuko is likely to be missing from the upcoming Demon Slayer Movie.
