KOYOHARU GOTOUGE

Hi, I’m Gotouge. Volume 3 is finally

out! And it’s thanks to me relying on a
lot of people, getting help and receiv-
ing encouragement. Thank you, Even
I’m shocked. I’m the type who jumps to
the conclusion that things are sure to
fail, but if I offer my cowardly self tasty
bananas and other treats, and tell my-
self that maybe there's still hope, I'll
keep doing my very best.

In Taisho-era Japan, young Tanjiro makes a living selling charcoal.

One day, demons kill his family and turn his younger sister Nezuko
into a demon. Tanjiro and Nezuko set out to find a way to return
Nezuko to human form! Having finished training with Urokodaki
and completed final selection for the Demon Slayer Corps, Tanjiro
accepts a mission and brings Nezuko with him. During the mission,
Tanjiro encounters his most hated enemy, Kibutsuji, but the demon
escapes. Then Tanjiro meets Tamayo and Yushiro, who are demons
but also want to kill Kibutsuji. They provide Tanjiro with a clue as to
how Nezuko may return to being human. Before he can do anything
with this information, Tanjiro is suddenly attacked by members
of the Twelve Kizuki, who directly serve Kibutsuji!

lives in fear of delinquents at the school
gate as he checks to make sure everyone
meets the dress code.
