About Demon Slayer

Demon Slayer is a shonen manga written and illustrated by Kotoharu Gotouge, an elusive author whose real identity is unknown to the general public that depicts themselves as a fictional character: a pencil-drawn crocodile who wears glasses. An anime adaptation done by the studio Ufotable ran in 2019, launching the series into worldwide fame and popularity.

The series follows Tanjiro Kamado, a young boy living in the Taisho era (1912-1925) in Japan. In this world, deadly monsters known as demons exist and terrorize humans. One day, Tanjirou comes home and finds that his family has been murdered by a demon. His little sister, Nezuko, was still alive, but was turned into a demon. Shortly after, the two encounter a Demon Slayer who aims to kill Tanjiro’s little sister. Tanjiro manages to stop him and defends Nezuko despite the fact that she is now a man-eating demon. The Demon Slayer, moved by this act, sends Tanjiro to his mentor so he could try to prove himself worthy of becoming a Demon Slayer. Tanjiro then starts on a journey to find a cure for his sister’s condition.

Eventually, Tanjiro finds Urokodaki, the Demon Slayer’s mentor, who agrees to train him and, after undergoing a long and arduous process, he becomes stronger and sets out to take the final test in order to officially become a member of the Demon Slayers. Since the release of the manga in 2016, Demon Slayer has sold over 4 million copies worldwide and is one of the few manga series to top One Piece in monthly sales in more than 10 years.

Popularity of the characters

The most popular characters among fans are Tanjiro Kamado and his little sister, Nezuko Kamado. That said, other major characters like Zenitsu and Inosuke have quite a fan following as well. Merchandise featuring these characters tends to be the most popular and are often items that sell out the quickest. Giyu Tomioka is a supporting character that also enjoys a great amount of popularity among fans because of his cool demeanor and character design, making him just as popular as the main characters despite his supporting role and lack of screen time.

Other popular supporting characters include feminine duo consisting of the Insect Pillar Shinobu Kochou and her protegé Kanao Tsuyuri, who is the same age as Tanjiro and became part of the Demon Corps at the same time.
