Aniplex Of America describes the story of the series as:
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.
The anime originally aired on April 6th in the Japanese language, so English dub fans have been waiting for some time to watch the anime.
Aniplex of America licensed the series, it is also available for streaming on
Hulu,
Crunchyroll, and
FunimationNow. The English dub will be releasing in two days on October 12th 2019 on the
Toonami programming block of
Adult Swim!
