Unique Artwork and Amazing Story
by Tyresse
This story is amazing I love the art its different from the other art styles I see.But this art style is like a old traditional Japanese art also looking for next volume of this book.
Good Manga
by Andrew -
This first volume is great as it is able to draw the reader in very quickly with its unique art style and interesting characters. It is not the most compelling in my opinion as it seems to be an average shounen plot, however this is the first volume so I will not mark it down for this.
Great series
by England -
While on the outside this just seems like a basic shonen style revenge plot (which it kind of is but that doesn't drag this series down at all), deeper down it is a lot kinder in its approach. Tanjiro doesn't let himself become consumed by hate and anger when he finds out his family has been slaughtered and his sister turned into a demon. He instead focuses on finding help for his sister to turn her back into a human. Tanjiro is an ultimately selfless person who will go out of his way to aid anyone in need, even it it harms himself. The world and lore surrounding it is also a fun to read and hear about. This volume hooked me and got me excited about the rest of the series. I would highly recommend this series to anybody.
It also came in good condition with no blemishes on the volume at all.
A Great Introduction to a Popular Series

I was drawn to how detailed and unique the art was. It was a great introduction to a highly popular series. The action sequences were amazing to look at. This was a great introduction to a very popular series. I can't wait to read more! Highly recommend for others to read if they're interested in action manga.
Awesome demon slaying manga
by Matthew -
After watching the anime, I wanted to read the manga. The first volume of Demon Slayers has a nice, great start that doesn't hold back on the beginning of the main character's adventure. I like Tanjiro and Nezuko.
great series.
by Alex -
Like many others around the world the anime production of this series caught me by surprise and made me want to read the manga and continue it past were the show left off. As to no provide any spoilers ill simply tell you this. Its worth every penny to read it.
Amazing manga with great characters and action!
by Lillian
Absolutely in love with this series. This is definitely one of the best mangas to come out this year in my opinion. All the characters are super great and memorable, and the art style is super nice. It has a simple premise yet that doesn't make it bad at all! I definitely recommend Demon Slayer to everyone.

by Mr.LovePoodle
Watched the first few episodes of the anime and just had to see what happened next. I ordered the first 20 volumes all at once... The shipping took a few months considering alot of volumes was out of stock but still arrived quickly and the packaging was nice!... (totally not important but I received the package a day after my whole house burnt down... So happy the manga wasn't in there.) Would have been more upset over these beautiful volumes then any other item I owned lol...
.
The manga itself has very nice art and nice quality in my opinion.. I Love it very much. Also the story is one of my favorites.
