Demon Slayer studio announces upcoming slate of four major anime

Fans of Ufotable, the studio behind Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, have reason to celebrate. The studio has confirmed that four major anime projects are in development, marking an ambitious slate that extends well beyond the world of demons and swords.

Ufotable has long been known for its painstaking attention to detail and jaw-dropping animation. The studio built a strong reputation before Demon Slayer, but the global phenomenon of the series pushed it into a new tier of mainstream recognition. Unlike some studios that churn out multiple shows every season, Ufotable takes its time. Each project is deliberate, carefully crafted, and often sets new visual standards for anime.

At the top of the list is the continuation of the Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle film saga. The first installment ended on a brutal cliffhanger, leaving audiences desperate for Part 2. The storyline is being adapted as a trilogy, meaning two more films are planned before the series moves into its final arc. So far, the studio hasn’t announced a release date, leaving fans to speculate while anticipation continues to build. Given the franchise’s recent box office success, expectations for Part 2 are enormous. Ufotable’s signature style—fluid action, cinematic lighting, and emotional storytelling—is expected to dominate theaters once again.

Beyond Demon Slayer, Ufotable is bringing the world of Genshin Impact to the screen. First announced years ago with HoYoverse, the anime recently received a new visual preview in early 2026. There’s still no official premiere date, but the renewed marketing signals that the project is moving forward. With a massive global fanbase and a sprawling fantasy setting, the adaptation could be another major hit if executed in Ufotable’s trademark style.

The studio is also working on Witch on the Holy Night, a supernatural story set in the late 1980s. It follows a young girl caught up in a mysterious legacy connected to a remote mansion. The film is expected to debut in Japan first, with international screenings to follow.

Finally, there’s the long-awaited Katsugeki/Touken Ranbu project. Originally teased years ago, details have been scarce. With production now active, fans are hopeful that new information could be revealed soon. The franchise has a dedicated following, and anticipation for its return remains high.

With these four projects, Ufotable is clearly positioning itself for another defining era. From high-stakes demon battles to supernatural tales and adaptations of globally popular games, the studio’s upcoming slate promises to keep its reputation for stunning animation intact.
