Will Tengen Uzui appear in Demon Slayer season 4?
Yes, he will. But his appearance will be brief and limited to the first episode of season 4. The episode follows the manga storyline, which brings all the Hashiras together for a meeting with the Ubuyashiki family, the leaders of the Demon Slayer Corps. The meeting is about the Demon Slayer Mark, a mysterious phenomenon that enhances the abilities of some demon slayers.
The mark was triggered by Tanjiro Kamado, the protagonist of the series, and it also affected Muichiro Tokito and Mitsuri Kanroji, two other Hashiras.
The Ubuyashiki family wanted to know more about the mark and how other demon slayers could obtain it. Muichiro Tokito explained that the mark required two conditions: surviving a near-death experience and raising the core body temperature to nearly 102 degrees Fahrenheit. The mark would give the demon slayers an edge in the war against the Upper Moon demons, their strongest enemies.

Then, Tengen Uzui appeared on the screen, along with his three wives. He was in charge of the first part of the training for the demon slayers, which focused on improving their stamina and endurance. He was his usual flamboyant and energetic self, and the fans loved his performance. However, this was their last time seeing him in the series. He did not participate in the battles against the Upper Moon demons, and he only showed up again at the end of the story. Therefore, Tengen Uzui will make an appearance in Demon Slayer season 4, but it will be a short and minor one.
