《鬼滅之刃 無限城篇》：終極決戰的史詩篇章

2025年7月18日，全球矚目的《鬼滅之刃 無限城篇》第一章將在日本正式上映，標誌著這部現象級動漫正式進入最終決戰的高潮階段。作為《鬼滅之刃》系列的最後篇章，將以三部曲劇場版的形式呈現，由ufotable繼續操刀製作，延續其高水準的動畫表現力與情感張力。

劇情概述：鬼殺隊 vs. 鬼舞辻無慘的最終對決

故事緊接《柱訓練篇》的結局，鬼王鬼舞辻無慘突襲鬼殺隊總部，意圖徹底消滅獵鬼人的核心力量。然而，鬼殺隊主公產屋敷耀哉早已設下陷阱，以自身為誘餌引爆宅邸，與無慘同歸於盡。儘管無慘憑藉強大的再生能力存活，但這一戰徹底激怒鬼殺隊成員。

在混亂中，無慘發動異能，將炭治郎、柱們以及眾多鬼殺隊成員拖入「無限城」——一個由鬼操控的異空間迷宮。這裡不僅是鬼的大本營，更是最終決戰的舞臺。炭治郎、我妻善逸、嘴平伊之助，以及九柱（包括炎柱煉獄杏壽郎的意志繼承者）將在此與無慘及其麾下的上弦之鬼展開殊死搏鬥。

市場期待與票房預測

由於《無限列車篇》曾創下全球5.07億美元票房的紀錄，業界普遍認為《無限城篇》有望再創新高。尤其本次採用三部曲模式，每部聚焦不同戰鬥（如上弦之壹·黑死牟 vs. 岩柱悲鳴嶼行冥），讓觀眾分階段體驗終極決戰。

《無限城篇》不僅是《鬼滅之刃》的終章，更是對角色成長、犧牲與信念的終極詮釋。從炭治郎的「火之神神樂」到各柱的巔峰對決，再到無慘的最終形態，這部作品註定成為動畫史上的經典。無論新老觀眾，都將在2025年見證這場跨越千年的「人鬼之戰」如何落幕。

"Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Arc" – The Epic Final Battle

On July 18, 2025, the highly anticipated first chapter of Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Arc will premiere in Japan, marking the climactic final battle of this global anime phenomenon. As the last installment of the Demon Slayer series, it will be released as a trilogy of theatrical films, with ufotable once again handling production, ensuring the same high-quality animation and emotional intensity that fans have come to expect.

Story Overview: Demon Slayers vs. Muzan Kibutsuji’s Ultimate Showdown

The story picks up right after the Hashira Training Arc finale, with the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, launching a surprise attack on the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters in an attempt to wipe out their core forces. However, the leader of the Demon Slayers, Kagaya Ubuyashiki, had already set a trap—sacrificing himself by detonating the estate in an effort to take Muzan down with him. Though Muzan survives due to his immense regenerative abilities, the attack enrages the Demon Slayers.

Amid the chaos, Muzan unleashes his power, dragging Tanjiro, the Hashira, and other Demon Slayers into the "Infinity Castle"—a labyrinthine alternate dimension controlled by the demons. This fortress serves as the demons’ stronghold and the stage for the final battle. Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Inosuke, and the nine Hashira (including the inheritor of Kyojuro Rengoku’s will) will engage in desperate combat against Muzan and his Upper Rank demons.

Animation Production: ufotable’s Visual Spectacle

• Director: Chief director Haruo Sotozaki (continuing his role from the series)
• Music: Yuki Kajiura & Go Shiina (maintaining the epic soundtrack style of previous installments)
• Character Design & Animation: Akira Matsushima (character design), ufotable (animation production)
• Theatrical Release Scale: 443 theaters in Japan (including 53 IMAX screens), surpassing the record set by Mugen Train.

Global Release Schedule

• Japan: July 18, 2025 (world premiere)
• Taiwan: August 8, 2025 (Japanese audio), August 15 (Mandarin dub)
• Hong Kong: August 14, 2025
• North America & UK: September 12, 2025
• Other Regions: South Korea (August 22), Southeast Asia (rolling out from August 14)

Market Expectations & Box Office Predictions

Given that Mugen Train set a global box office record of $507 million, industry experts predict that Infinity Castle Arc could surpass this milestone. The trilogy format—with each film focusing on different battles (e.g., Upper Rank One Kokushibo vs. Stone Hashira Gyomei Himejima)—will allow audiences to experience the final conflict in stages.

Infinity Castle Arc is not just the conclusion of Demon Slayer—it is the ultimate culmination of character growth, sacrifice, and conviction. From Tanjiro’s "Hinokami Kagura" to the Hashira’s climactic duels and Muzan’s final form, this saga is destined to become a classic in anime history. Whether new fans or longtime followers, audiences worldwide will witness the end of this millennia-long war between humans and demons in 2025.
