In Japan, the movie has already been smashing records while carrying forward the incredible success of the franchise. As soon as word spread about the US release, the demand was so overwhelming that ticket platforms struggled to keep up.
Demon Slayer Infinity Castle Arc US Release Date & Ticket Rush
The Infinity Castle Part 1 will officially arrive in US theaters on September 12, 2025, and the rush for early tickets has been nothing short of intense. Fans scrambled to lock in their seats the moment tickets went live, and the heavy traffic left major sites like Fandango unprepared. In some cities, the situation grew so competitive that the websites simply stopped working under the weight of fans trying to book the first screenings.

Demon Slayer’s History Of Box Office Success
This level of demand is no surprise given Demon Slayer’s history. In 2020, the Mugen Train film became not only the top-grossing movie of the year but also the highest-earning anime film in history, per Screenrant. It earned a worldwide gross of over $506 million, as per The Numbers. Following its Japanese release in July 2025, Infinity Castle has already shown signs that it could rival or even surpass those achievements.
The box office in the US will be closely watched, but even before release, the film has made headlines by overwhelming ticket platforms. Now, with anticipation at its peak, Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle has already stamped its place as one of the most significant cinematic events of the year.
