idc how many characters i dont care if theres a story i just want better netcode and better servers like pls i beg this game is amazing with a few very big issues

[tumanater]

Seeing the mark appear on slayers when they go into surge mode would hype

[preferno]

Honestly I think the yorichi training bot will be a character that you get for beating the story mode

[Sorryman]

Despite the the rocky start, the foundation of DSHC is something beautiful. However long it takes I'm really excited for the potential of a Demon Slayer 2.

[empoleon]

Here are my thoughts on Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles 2.

Story mode:
This may sound odd, but I honestly think a sequel’s story would cover the entire remainder of the story. For you anime-onlys, there actually isn’t much left to adapt. Here’s what we would see:
- The Entertainment District Arc
- The Swordsmith Village Arc
- The Hashira Training Arc
- The Infinity Castle Arc
- The Sunrise Countdown Arc

This may seem like a bold prediction, but if a sequel were to just adapt the parts of the anime that haven’t been covered yet, a hypothetical third game would be needed to close out the story, and the whole thing would end up just being the Infinity Castle Arc and the Sunrise Countdown Arc. And if I’m being honest, Hantengu doesn’t really carry the proper “final boss energy” to close out the story mode by himself. I think a story mode devoted to just a bunch of fights against Daki and Gyutaro with a bunch of different characters, then a bunch of fights against Hantengu’s clones, would be a little boring for a story mode, in all honesty.

Now, let’s go over a few ideas for boss fights we will see. I’m not giving a full breakdown of every fight we’ll see here, but just a few thoughts I had (WARNING: TONS OF MANGA SPOILERS AHEAD):
- I don’t know if CyberConnect2 would do this, since there are fights in their past games that should have been forced-loss battles that weren’t, but I think Shinobu vs. Doma should either be a one-phase battle, or a forced-loss battle. Same goes for the start of the battle against Kokushibo; the fight would open with you playing as just Muichiro, and that would be a forced-loss battle, since Muichiro gets utterly dunked on by Kokushibo in the source material, then go into the later phases, where you’d pretty much just be playing as Sanemi and Gyomei most of the time.
- The way they handled the Swamp Demon is rather interesting; they had you fight three enemies at once in phase one. I think you could translate this to certain fights, too, but with your allies instead. As in, we would see AI-controlled allies assisting you during certain boss fights. I’m thinking most of this would come into play during the Muzan battles. You know… since those fights are literally Everyone vs. Muzan.
- Speaking of Muzan, the first battle against him should either be just one phase, then he drops you into the Infinity Castle, or the fight is cut short halfway through and then he drops you into the Infinity Castle.
- When it comes to the Infinity Castle fights, I kind of envision sections where you fight a bunch of regular enemies while advancing down the halls of the castle leading up to each fight, much like Naruto Storm 3.
- Speaking of the Infinity Castle, maybe you choose the order in which you do those fights. For example, you could choose to play through the fights against Doma before playing the Kaigaku boss fight if you wanted.
- I have an interesting idea for the finale - Demon Tanjiro could just be a normal boss fight, but what if, instead, he was basically invincible, and all you could do was survive and wait for a quick-time event where Kanao sticks him with the drug to turn him human again. That would be interesting for a finale.
- Speaking of the finale, I had an idea for how to close the story - Instead of Demon Tanjiro ending it off, after you finish that section, we go into Tanjiro’s mind, as he’s fighting Muzan from the inside, just like in the actual story… but instead of just making it a scene where he breaks free, we turn that into one last fight with Muzan in Tanjiro’s head. Maybe the fight is set in a field of wisteria flowers, with a rising sun in the background, where you have a one-on-one duel between Tanjiro and Muzan. It would just be one phase where Tanjiro has Surge permanently active, a little like the final phase of the Rui fight.

On to the new characters:
Slayers:
- Tanjiro (Swordsmith Village)
- Nezuko (Swordsmith Village) (Nezuko would be using her Advanced Form here, though since she has better control of it at this time, she’d be classed as a Slayer rather than a Demon).
- Genya (I want to give Genya some sort of gimmick where he can eat a Demon’s flesh during battle and gain new moves, but that would be super situational in a game like this, and it would make him a little too easy to play around, since the best way to screw over any Genya mains would be to just not pick a Demon).
- Muichiro
- Mitsuri
- Tanjiro (Infinity Castle)
- Zenitsu (Final Battle)
- Inosuke (Final Battle)
- Kanao
- Shinobu (Final Battle) (This one is a BIG maybe, and may only be used so all the currently manga-only techniques CyberConnect2 snuck into the current Shinobu’s moveset could be referred to by their proper names. Maybe they’ll just rename all of the existing Shinobu’s techniques accordingly, rather than making a new version).
- Iguro
- Sanemi
- Gyomei
- Yoriichi (I’m not sure whether the game would have you play through the entire Yoriichi flashback, but for all we know, they could. If they do, Yoriichi could be a playable character. I was also thinking Yoriichi could be a secret boss, similar to Rengoku in the current game. If they go that route, he’d have to be MUCH harder, though).
- Tanjiro (Final Battle)

Demons:
- Gyokko (I’d personally make his true form the playable version. I kind of see him being a setup character, laying pots and making certain moves come from their position).
- Hantengu (My idea for him goes like this - You’d be directly controlling not Hantengu, but Urami; Hantengu would just be hiding inside his body when you’re playing as him. I doubt Hantengu would try to fight somebody head-on, after all. Plus, Urami is just a bigger, more aggressive version of the real Hantengu. His skills would summon the other clones, a la Captain Ginyu from Dragon Ball FighterZ. Like Globku just said in this video, maybe we’d also make his Surge Mode form Zohakuten).
- Akaza (Infinity Castle) (This one may be a stretch. Akaza shows off few of his techniques in his first appearance, but in his second, he shows off so many more, I think they may create a second Akaza just for that).
- Doma
- Kaigaku
- Kokushibo
- Muzan (We’d keep him in his final form for his playable version)
- Tanjiro (Demon)

Second games are faster to make cause the bases are already done. It wouldn't take the same amout of time as the first

[gametrieuk]

I would definitely like a technique selection menu, it would add a lot to certain characters, exploring other forms for certain characters would be very positive, example 4th form of breathing flames for Rengoku, the possibility for characters like Shinobu to change a skill, Hinokami Tanjiro have diverse forms of Sun Breath.

This is something we see in Naruto Storm, and could very well be put into practice in the next Hinokami Chronicles, of course doing as the first game already does, even if Sabito uses Water Wheel it is different from other characters.

[jahclxtch]

it would be cool to play as the hantengu emotions, it also adds more characters to play with

[bossakane]

Was literally just talking about this with my friend and you said everything I said to him about what's most likely to be expected 😅 awesome.

[whoiskuro]

Small Changes I would like to see:
-New Announcers(like having hashiras say round 1 instead of it being sakonji)
-Being able to change finishing cuts(sum of them are kinda bad so i would be nice to customize them)

[AquaSwingg]

I really liked the surge Transformation idea a character that could work with that could be nezuko since she as Semi demon form where she still has control of herself instead of the form she used against daki

[hydra_drizz]

All I need is more content and characters with different moves because just cause u have one move different doesn't make the character different

[whip]

I honestly don’t understand why they won’t just update the game with every new season that’s what I was expecting and that makes the most sense that’s a whole year to just add the new content to the game…

[justsomeshinychewtlewitham]

While I agree that the game you described would likely be worth it's cost I think that adding just 5 characters just doesn't sell well and is a massive risk for them to take, so I could see them adding in addition to what you said a Muichiro with a broken sword, a new Tanjiro preset like they did with sun breathing that has a pink sword (+ that 1 Thunder Breathing move he used to make him unique) and an additional one new Hashira from the trainning arc to give a taste of the DLCs in the free game.

Edit: on second thought I could also see them giving us academy versions of the new characters to bump up the numbers

[shiki]

4:38 for the hantengu fights it would be way better and interesting if you had to get them to a specific amount of health while having to play a time limit, so even if the time limit is over, you would still need to damage them enough to continue, or they could stage a full on loss for some fights

[gamingguy]

Ok so here’s the thing, I don’t think they’llmake a whole new game only for two arcs. I think that it would be announced AFTER the demon slayer anime ends (presumably in early 2024) and it would release on early 2025( or march 2025).

[iBrawler]

00:13 There's "Demon Slayer: Sweep the board" 🤷🏼‍♂

[DarkEdge]

A good prediction but I think fans are of off for season 4 release date. They seemingly drop a new season every year or every 1.5 year and the next season will be adapting a training arc which is super short and not much action so I can see it coming out next year. If the game drops in 2025 I can see Hashira Training already out but not the final arc.

[brokenglalie]

It actually may be a bit sooner because they have a lot of models pre built

[gangstapillzink]

Amazing video my guy! Like fr you painted the perfect picture of your image for this game n it is exactly what I've been praying they do! With transformations n letting you fight solo or in teams! Great minds think alike 😅
