Alongside the announcement, the live stream took us around to different events and attractions that would have shown off during the event, had it happened. Including key visuals, illustrations from the TV anime series and film, original key animation of the hinokami scene from the 19th episode, and more. A key visual for the live stream was released on the Demon Slayer Twitter account, with the gang looking very snappy in their Taisho-era outfits.
