Summary

Tanjirou Kamado's life as a charcoal seller on a secluded mountain provides meager sustenance for his family, yet they live contentedly until a devastating encounter changes everything. One evening, after selling charcoal in the village, Tanjirou is forced to stay overnight at a local's home due to the dangers of demons that roam the woods at night. The stark warning he receives there does little to prepare him for the horror he finds upon his return: his entire family has been annihilated by a demon, except for his sister Nezuko, who has been transformed into a demon herself.

Fueled by a mixture of grief and determination, Tanjirou sets out on a mission to avenge his family's death and restore his sister's humanity. As a newly inducted member of the Demon Slayer Corps, Tanjirou trains to fight the demonic forces that haunt the night, seeking redemption and revenge. His journey is fraught with challenges and enemies, but his resolve to protect Nezuko's humanity and bring justice for his family pushes him ever forward, forging him into a true demon slayer.
