Demon Slayer S4 Ep 8 ending explained

With the help of the demon Nakime, who employed small eyeball demons to spy on the demon slayers and discover their hiding place, Muzan was able to locate the Ubuyashiki mansion and eventually made an appearance there. Ubuyashiki was bed-ridden and did not immediately see Muzan when he entered the premises.

On the other hand, Ubuyashiki had set up a trap for Muzan in anticipation of Muza¡¯s arrival. The Ubuyashiki home was completely packed with explosives, all of which were arranged with spiked caltrops to maximize their destructive power and minimize Muzan's regeneration.

Ubuyashiki went on to sacrifice himself and his family in order to defeat Muzan. So this answers the question that ¡®did Muzan kill Ubuyashiki¡¯, no he did not.

Then Muzan gave Nakime instructions to build portals that would lead to the Infinity Castle. Suddenly, inside the Infinity Castle, every single demon slayer¡ªincluding Muzan, Tanjiro, the Hashira, and numerous others¡ªwas distorted.

This makes for an amazing cliffhanger at the end of Episode 8, which excites fans of Demon Slayer for the three films that will finally wrap up this fantastical journey.
