Can I read this volume without having read the previous ones?

This volume is a direct continuation of an ongoing narrative and relies heavily on established character relationships and plot developments from the preceding fourteen volumes. New readers should begin with the first volume to understand the context of the Demon Slayer Corps and the central conflict.

Does this volume conclude the series?

The story continues well beyond this volume, as the manga series spans twenty-three volumes in total. This installment serves as a bridge into the subsequent training and conflict arcs that follow the events at the swordsmith village.

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.

Tanjiro finally chases down the main body of the upper-rank demon Hantengu. However, dawn is approaching, and the rising sun is a threat to Nezuko. Tanjiro's concern for his sister is a distraction from the focus he needs to fight Hantengu, and if he hesitates it could be the last mistake he ever makes! Elsewhere, Tamayo ponders the nature of Nezuko's curse and how she could be so different from other demons.
