Nijigen no Mori has previously held two Demon Slayer collaboration events, the first from April 2022 to January 2023, and the second from July 2023 to January 2024. Both daytime and nighttime events themed on the world of the anime were held, attracting a large number of visitors.

The night event features a nighttime walk based on iconic scenes from the "Tanjiro Kamado, Unwavering Resolve Arc" and "Hashira Training Arc", through a 1.2 km forest path. Projection mapping and other effects bring the world of the anime to life, as participants enlist in the Demon Slayer Corps and join the unfolding battle waged by Tanjiro Kamado and the Hashira against the demons.
During the daytime event featuring new character illustrations from "ufotable", participants find themselves lost in an illusory world and are challenged with solving the demons' riddles to escape the illusion.
