'Demon Slayer' Fans Slam Crunchyroll for Playing Credits Three Times in 'To The Swordsmith Village' Movie

The new Crunchyroll movie DEMON SLAYER – To the Swordsmith Village is being slammed as a “cash grab” by the studio following its release.
Fans might be thinking that they’re on their way to see a full new movie, but the film is actually three episodes of Demon Slayer pieced together… and two of them have already been seen.
To the Swordsmith Village includes episodes 10 and 11 from season 2, as well as the unseen first episode of season 3.
While most fans are happy to rewatch the old episodes in preparation for seeing the season 3 premiere a little early, there’s something that is puzzling a lot of people. The opening and end credits for all three episodes are included in the film instead of editing the episodes into one film.
One fan called the movie a “blatant cash grab.”

Ngl that was lazy as hellllllll
We did not need 3 credits sequences
It should have been cut together seamlessly but you literally crammed the episodes together
Demon slayer is still fire and the new stuff is good but I honestly feel jipped— TheAngryRedBird (@ItsAngryRedBird) March 4, 2023
The Demon Slayer "movie" was alright I guess…but not worth paying money to see. Literally just the last two episodes of the Entertainment District Arc and then the first episode of the Swordsmith Village Arc, complete with opening and end credits. Just wait til April honestly

Went to see Demon Slayer: To the Swordsmith Village in the cinema which was good fun. Didn’t mind watching episodes 10 and 11 again from the previous season but it was super strange having the credits for both episodes included. Great time for a toilet trip though!

New demon slayer movie/episode is mid. They didn’t even bother to edit out the credits. Waste of money to go watch in theatres

Demon slayer village movie the biggest disappointment basically paid £14.50 to watch the last 3 episodes of season 2 and the first episode of the village arc and they played the opening for each episode and the credits 🤣🤣

Watched the demon slayer movie – very pathetic- they basically showed us 3 episodes (2 of which I had already watched) including the ending credits of each episode. What the fuck?

Australian premiere of #DemonSlayer was crazy! Unsure of why they’d play credits half way through but whatever it was still sick!

Ngl Demon Slayer: road to a wordsmith village is such a blatant cash grab 😭 they literally season two EP 10 & 11, opening and ending credits and all with no seamless editing into the sword smith village arc after

Is anyone else a bit disappointed about the editing of Demon Slayer – To The Swordsmith Village cinema release. They could have combined the episodes together (ie removing openings, credits and recaps in between). That would make it less confusing when you are watching it…

Who's idea was it to leave the credits in the theatrical version of Demon Slayer?
