Knowing how sharp Shinobu is, was this devilish behavior something she did on purpose? Or was she being unaware because she sometimes acts a bit off? Either way, viewers were absolutely thrilled: “Sh-Shinobu-san!!!!! So beautiful!!!!!”; “So close!! And so cute!!!”; “I love Shinobu in this scene so muchhh.”

"The Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba" anime series is based on the manga of the same name by Koyoharu Gotoge, serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2016 to 2020. Set during the Taishō era, it tells the story of Tanjiro Kamado, a boy whose family was slaughtered by demons, and his journey of battle. The TV anime “Tanjiro Kamado, Unwavering Resolve Arc” began airing in April 2019 and quickly gained attention. The sequel, "Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Movie: Mugen Train," surpassed a worldwide box office gross of 50 billion yen. The manga now boasts a total worldwide circulation of 220 million copies, making it one of the most successful works in the history of Japanese manga and anime.

Following the “Unwavering Resolve Arc,” the TV anime went on to adapt the “Mugen Train Arc,” “Entertainment District Arc,” “Swordsmith Village Arc,” and “Hashira Training Arc.” Production of the “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba The Movie: Infinity Castle” — which covers the final episodes — has been announced as a trilogy. “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba The Movie: Infinity Castle,” which has been in theaters since July 18, 2025, has already exceeded 25.7 billion yen in box office revenue within its first month.
