Demon Slayer Season 2 Episode 17 recap and Episode 18 spoilers
In the recent episode, Tanjiro somehow manages to survive. He loses consciousness as soon as he lands on the ground. Gyutaro teases him for not being able to defend his friends and sister. However, seeing his enthusiasm, Gyutaro offers Tanjiro to become a demon, saying that he will spare his life if he does.
Amazingly, Tanjiro regains his energy and head-butts Gyutaro and tries to escape with Nezuko. When angry Gyutaro hovers to kill him, he pierces Gyutaro with a Wisteria extract-laced kunai.
As the fight between Tanjiro and Gyutaro intensifies, Daki sets out to help him. She is confronted by a surviving Zenitsu, who attacks her with lightning speed. Tengen joins the fight against Gyutaro while Inosuke helps Zenitsu who battles against Daki.
In the end, the Demon Slayers manages to behead the siblings. The episode ends on a cliffhanger as a large explosion occurs from Gyutaro’s body. The viewers are left wondering what would happen next.
In the next episode titled No Matter How Many Lives, Demon Slayers would survive the explosion. Tengen would retire from his position as Hashira due to his wounds. There is plenty to come in the next episode.
