The Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba anime series is based on the manga of the same title by Koyoharu Gotoge, which was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2016 to 2020. Set in the Taisho era, the story follows the battle of Tanjiro Kamado (voiced by Natsuki Hanae), a boy whose family was killed by demons. The TV anime “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Tanjiro Kamado, Unwavering Resolve Arc,” which began airing in April 2019, immediately became a sensation, and its sequel, the film “Demon Slayer -Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Movie: Mugen Train,” grossed over 50 billion yen worldwide. Today, the manga has surpassed a cumulative worldwide circulation of 220 million copies, making it a historic blockbuster in the history of Japanese manga and anime.

Following the “Tanjiro Kamado, Unwavering Resolve Arc,” the TV anime has aired the “Entertainment District Arc,” “Swordsmith Village Arc,” and “Hashira Training Arc.” The climactic “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba The Movie: Infinity Castle” was announced as a trilogy. “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba The Movie: Infinity Castle - Part 1: Akaza’s Return,” which opened on July 18, 2025, has already grossed over 31.4 billion yen in its first 52 days.
