Culver City, CA (August 28, 2020)
Anime fans have fallen for the epic tale of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and its hero Tanjiro Kamado. Funimation, the leading distributor of anime, has everything fans need to satisfy their thirst for the beautifully animated and thrilling tale of revenge and demons! Funimation uniquely caters to anime fans looking to immerse themselves in their favorite characters and stories through its growing streaming service, merchandise shop, home video and collectibles, movies, events, and more.

Aniplex of America's Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba burst on the scene earlier this year, marshaling a legion of fans with its epic tale of a slaughtered family; protagonist seeking revenge; and plethora of demons to fight along the way. In the series, bloodthirsty demons lurk in the woods, nobody dares to venture out at night, save for the Demon Slayer of legend. Surviving in this harsh world, young Tanjiro takes it upon himself to protect his family–until the day that everything is taken from him in a vicious slaughter. Now, all he has left is his sister, and she's not even human anymore.
