I literally love everybody in this book; Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke, Giyu, Shinobu, Kanao, Rengoku, Mitsuri, Uzui, Muichiro. Born in 1989, Koyoharu Gotouge was born in Fukuoka Prefecture in Japan, located on the island of Kyushu. But everything changed when he came home one day to find his entire family violently slaughtered by a demon lurking in the nearby forest. This was an overall terrible read, and I can’t possibly imagine why this series is so popular and highly rated.

I like how the manga already connects with you emotionally and establishes that its a brother trying to save his sister and the author does a good job balancing many things and also the stakes in particular.

I've currently finished Season 3 of the anime and I started reading the manga because I noticed it's complete with a total of 23 volumes. When people initially told me about Demon Slayer, my first impression of it was that it was probably some hack and slash series where characters engage a never-ending horde of demons with samurai swords.

Plus I really cannot overlook those talks about 'a real man doesn't cry, whine or cry out in pain/cry out for help', I understand that life in this fictional world is tough, and demons are hard to kill so everyone has to strengthen and prepare themselves for wars, but.
