Synopsis
In Taisho-era Japan, kindhearted charcoal seller Tanjiro Kamado returns home to find his family slaughtered by a demon and his younger sister Nezuko transformed into one. Determined to find a cure for her and hunt down the demon responsible, he sets out on the path of the Demon Slayer.
Despite some comic misunderstandings that almost blew their cover, Tanjiro, Inosuke and Zenitsu have smoked out Daki, a demon that has been devouring the residents of an entertainment district for years. The Hashira Tengen Uzui and his ninja companions engage Daki, but if they cannot handle her, what chance do Tanjiro and his friends have of taking on one of Kibutsuji's Upper-Rank demons by themselves?
