It follows the story of teenager Tanjiro Kamado, who joins a team of demon hunters after his sister is turned into one."

"It is a very unique storytelling format, and it has not only stunning visuals, but strong characters, very unique storytelling that's set in these amazing worlds, and that's what attracts fans to these stories," he said."
