1 No secret; Opening theme song is introduced. N/A
2 Tanjiro and Nezuko discuss the demon that attacked them; he never expected arms to grow out of his head. As Sakonji has accepted him, he promises to do his best. Tanjiro is about to reveal Sakonji’s true age when he interrupts, asking if he wants meat and potato stew or oden. When he pauses, the trainer rebukes him as indecisive and demands an answer, and he quickly replies that he wants oden.
3 Tanjiro and Nezuko discuss his feat of slicing the giant boulder, which even he finds shocking. He adds that he could have never succeeded without Sabito and Makomo. Tanjiro reveals that the reason Sakonji wears a mask is because demons would mock his gentle-looking face. He makes a promise to Sabito, Makomo, and Sakonji that he will do his best to make Nezuko human again.
4 Tanjiro asks Nezuko about her opinion on him using Water Surface Slash, but is dismayed when she claims that Sabito was cooler instead. He then talks about the wisteria he saw during Final Selection, hoping she would see them when she is human again. Tanjiro reveals that during the selection, there was a blond boy by the name of Zenitsu; his trainer slapped him for refusing to join the selection and had to drag him there.
5 No Taisho Secret. Tanjiro asks his Kasugai Crow to introduce himself to the audience, but the bird does not take orders and begins pecking him repeatedly, to Nezuko’s annoyance.

As Tanjiro gives the next episode’s title, the crow threatens to peck the audience if they miss it, dismaying Tanjiro.

He asks if she is cramped and uncomfortable inside it, promising to make her a bigger box, much to her gratitude. Tanjiro reveals that the demon they faced has a habit of angrily grinding his teeth, a trait from when he was human.
7 Tanjiro has found Muzan Kibutsuji and hopes that by defeating him, he can return Nezuko’s humanity. He also notes that everyone in Asakusa wore very fashionable clothing, and adds that Nezuko would look good in them. He reveals that the udon vendor they met was born and raised in Asakusa, and the reason he sells udon there because he enjoys the city so much. Nezuko proposes that Tanjiro would look nice in a suit, until Muzan’s image appears and he concentrates on his current mission.
8 Tanjiro reveals that Yushiro’s hobby is writing about Tamayo in his journal, sometimes adding seven to ten new pages per day. He has acquired it and begins to read his entry for January the 10th: “Lady Tamayo was ethereal and gorgeous again today. At 17:10, she called my name. Twice, no less! Her voice was beautiful. At 17:29, when Tamayo, deep in thought, tripped on the step…” After getting the general idea, Tanjiro closes the episode, but not before asserting that they never saw what was inside the journal.
9 Tanjiro remarks that the Arrow and Temari Demons they face are formidable opponents, especially their attack combos. He asks Nezuko on how she is holding up but she remains assured. He reveals that the two demons’ names are Yahaba and Susamaru; it was their first time meeting and they became friends after chatting on their way to Tanjiro. He is impressed they move in sync so well but remains confident in his and Nezuko’s teamwork; he begins yelling out “First Form! Second Form! Third Form!” as Nezuko follows his lead.
10 Tanjiro begins with an impression of his Kasugai crow commanding him to go south-south-west, before pretending to complain that he had just finished a battle. Nezuko is impressed by how close it is. He reveals that each Kasugai crow has a name, and that his crow is Matsuemon Tennoji.

Zenitsu notes his disappointed expression and demands he talk. Tanjiro reveals that Zenitsu gets self-conscious in front of girls, to which he asserts that he cannot help it as “Girls are so adorable, soft, and smell so nice!”, before declaring that after the battle, he will find and tie the knot with her. As Tanjiro gives the next episode’s title, Zenitsu demands he listen to him.

Unfortunately, they have run out of time to give the Taisho Secret.
13 Tanjiro is in awe at the demon’s Blood Demon Art and ability to spin the room while fighting; he reasons that the closer a demon is to Muzan, the more troublesome and potent their Blood Demon Arts become.

15 Zenitsu and his sparrow Chuntaro appear, upon which he begins to call for Nezuko and Tanjiro.

He is shocked to know his name isn't Gonapachiro Kamaboko and tries the names Gengoro Shakariki and Tontaro Itadaki, before Tanjiro gives up and reveals that Inosuke will call out a person’s name correctly once out of seven times. Getting closer, Inosuke tries Kanjiro Anago, Tangoro Hamado, Janjiro Amado. He says Kamado but stops midway, dismaying Tanjiro.
