This work by Koyoharu Gotouge, one of the recent mega-hits from Shonen Jump in Japan, unfolds in the feudal Japan of the Taisho Era, albeit in a fantastical version featuring charming demons with a taste for human flesh. It narrates the adventures of Tanjiro Kamado, a kind-hearted and compassionate young man who lives in the mountains with his mother and five siblings, earning a living by selling charcoal.

One day, while returning from his chores, a villager suggests that Tanjiro spend the night at their house to avoid being devoured by an Oni (demon). Tanjiro agrees, but upon finally returning home, he discovers that although he escaped, his entire family was slaughtered by a demon, except for his younger sister Nezuko, who ended up turning into one of them! In his desperation to find help, Tanjiro encounters a demon slayer named Giyu Tomioka (a classic friend-rival with an air of aloofness), who realizes that Nezuko strangely retains enough of her humanity to want to protect her brother. Surprised by this and impressed by the boy’s combat skills, he suggests that Tanjiro seek out his master… And so begins Tanjiro’s journey to become a demon slayer, to find a cure for his sister, and to uncover the killer of his family, all while encountering unexpected friends and rivals.

What makes Kimetsu no Yaiba stand out and become so popular? Virtually everything. The perfect blend of mystery, drama, action, mythology, and distilled terror captured a wide audience by skillfully mixing the typical resources and devices of the genre, including a morally upright and progressively powerful protagonist. Kimetsu no Yaiba is a tale of relentless adventures that never lets up, and now Ivrea brings it to you like a devilish whirlwind!

The manga of Kimetsu no Yaiba by Koyoharu Gotoge began serialization in Shonen Jump in February 2016. It was masterfully adapted into an anime by Ufotable, debuting in April 2019. This initial 26-episode season propelled the manga to the top ranks of the magazine’s weekly sales as well as its compiled volumes. But the hunt is just beginning!
