The story takes place during the tumultuous Taisho period (1912 to 1926) when two siblings must survive after their family is viciously slaughtered by demons.

    Veteran anime producer Hikaru Kondo (Fate/stay night [Unlimited Blade Works], Garden of Sinners) serves as animation producer with Haruo Sotozaki (Initial D: Third Stage, Naruto: Konoha Sports Festival) as the director and Akira Matsushima (Maria Watches Over Us, Tales of Zestiria the X) handling the character design. In addition to animation production, ufotable is also in charge of the screenplay with esteemed composers Go Shiina from God Eater andToday’s MENU for Emiya Family and Yuki Kajiura from Sword Art Online and Puella Magi Madoka Magica teaming up to create the music for the series.

    About DEMON SLAYER: KIMETSU NO YAIBA:

    It is the Taisho Period in Japan. Tanjiro, a kindhearted boy who sells charcoal for a living, finds his family slaughtered by a demon. To make matters worse, his younger sister Nezuko, the sole survivor, has been transformed into a demon herself.

    Though devastated by this grim reality, Tanjiro resolves to become a “demon slayer” so that he can turn his sister back into a human, and kill the demon that massacred his family.
