Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Returns to SCREENX

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle returns for one week, from October 9 to 15, 2026, as a SCREENX version at 109 Cinemas Meiwa in the Japanese prefecture of Mie. As Nijimen reports, the film placed first in a poll asking "Which film would you like to see in SCREENX?" and is therefore being shown again as part of the cinema's 25th anniversary celebrations.

SCREENX extends the image beyond the front screen onto the side walls of the auditorium. For this re-release, the cinema charges an additional SCREENX fee of 700 yen on top of the regular ticket price. Advance sales open two days before the desired screening day at 0 on the 109 Cinemas Meiwa website; members of the Cinema Point program can book three days earlier from 21.

109 Cinemas had already shown "Infinity Castle" from February 20, 2026, at several venues as SCREENX and ULTRA 4DX versions. At the time, the cinema chain described this release as the first SCREENX run within the "Demon Slayer" franchise. The new October run, by contrast, is limited to the Meiwa venue and to seven days.
