The Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba anime began with its inaugural season in 2019, quickly followed by the blockbuster 2020 film Demon Slayer – Kimetsu No Yaiba – the Movie: Mugen Train (the top-grossing film in Japan’s domestic market). Subsequent offerings include a televised version of Mugen Train, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Swordsmith Village Arc, and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Hashira Training Arc.
The anime is based on the manga by Koyoharu Gotouge, which was serialized from 2016 to 2020 in Weekly Shonen Jump. Viz Media summarizes the manga as:
Learning to destroy demons won’t be easy, and Tanjiro barely knows where to start. The surprise appearance of another boy named Giyu, who seems to know what’s going on, might provide some answers—but only if Tanjiro can stop Giyu from killing his sister first!
