Sword Of The Demon Hunter Episode 9: Jinya Vs Akitsu Continues—Recap, Release Date, Where To Stream And More
Sword Of The Demon Hunter Episode 9 will see Jinya get wounded in the fight against Somegorou Akitsu, despite having used his powers. Don’t miss it to find out why; get the release details here.
In ‘The Night Flower Hairpin Part 1,’ it begins with Jinya confronting a wounded woman begging to be bought for the night. He declines, but her anguish causes her to transform into a demon, which Jinya eliminates. Meanwhile, at a festival, Natsu and Ofuu meet a merchant sharing the name Somegorou Akitsu.
Natsu purchases trinkets, receiving a genuine hair ornament as a gift. The ornament casts a trance over her, prompting Jinya to investigate. The merchant confronts him and identifies himself as “Somegorou Akitsu the Third.”

Sword Of The Demon Hunter Episode 9 will continue the battle between Jinya and the man claiming to be Somegorou Akitsu. During their clash, Jinya will be attacked by three inugami under Akitsu’s control. He will end up using powers such as Concealment and Swift Step to counter them.
Though wounded, Jinya will gain the upper hand and learn Akitsu’s true nature—a tsukumogami user capable of transforming objects imbued with lingering emotions into demons. The episode will explore Akitsu’s abilities and may reveal that the conflict stemmed from a misunderstanding.
