Ufotable uploaded a short trailer for Demon Slayer, showing off the remaining Upper Kizuki members. So far, the anime has introduced three (technically four) of the six. Akaza was a major antagonist in the Mugen Train Arc, whereas Gyutaro and Daki were the main antagonists for the Entertainment District Arc. The Entertainment District Arc for the anime also ended with a teaser of Douma.

The trailer quickly shows off the Upper Kizuki members, as well as a quote from them. Aside from introducing them, it also reveals the cast members for Kizuki who have not yet appeared in the show. In order of appearance in the trailer, the voice actors for them are:
- Akaza: Akira Ishida (Gaara in Naruto)
- Gyutaro: Ryota Ohsaka (Bennett in Genshin Impact)
- Gyokko: Kosuke Toriumi (Imaizumi in Yowamushi Pedal)
- Hantengu: Toshio Furukawa (Ace in One Piece)
- Douma: Mamoru Miyano (Ryuji in Persona 5)
- Kokushibou: Ryotaro Okiayu (Toriko in Toriko)
Though she is not in the trailer, as she is technically a part of Gyutaro, Daki was also an Upper Kizuki.
Demon Slayer Season 3 will cover the Swordsmith Village Arc from the manga. It will air some time in April 2023. Two members of the Upper Kizuki will appear as antagonists during that arc. Meanwhile, we already know that the Love Pillar (Mitsuri) and the Mist Pillar (Muichiro) will heavily feature as Tanjiro’s allies.
Demon Slayer is readily available for streaming via Netflix, Crunchyroll, and Hulu.
