Demon Slayer Makes Historic Return After Infinity Castle Movie

by

The “Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle” film has been phenomenally successful in Japan, breaking numerous box office records with no signs of slowing down. The triumph of this movie has reignited the passion of fans for Demon Slayer, as demonstrated by the surge in manga sales lately.

The Demon Slayer Manga Beats One Piece

Demon Slayer Outsold Eiichiro Oda’s Manga

  • Demon Slayer manga outsold One Piece
  • The movie has broken many records

According to a recent report, the popular manga series Demon Slayer sold over 100,000 copies, earning it the number 2 spot on Oricon’s weekly rankings for the week of July 28 – August 3. My Dress Up Darling took the top position with 121,221 copies sold, while Demon Slayer trailed closely behind with 112,783. Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece and The Fragrant Flower Blooms With Dignity rounded out the top four.

The comeback of Demon Slayer to the charts underscores its popularity in Japan. The manga concluded in 2020, and since then, no new issues have been released, which adds an extra layer of awe to this achievement. It’s truly impressive, but it might slip down the ranks in the next chart. There’s even a chance that Demon Slayer could fall out of the top 10 entirely.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but feel exhilarated as the Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle movie continues to dominate Japanese cinemas! With its record-breaking streak set to continue in the coming weeks, it’s only a matter of time before this masterpiece etches its name further into the annals of anime history.

However, let’s not forget that the movie has yet to hit the screens in other countries. Once it does, we’ll truly get a global perspective on its immense popularity and potential for even more record-breaking success!

In recent weeks, Demon Slayer has achieved another significant feat – joining an exclusive club of manga that have sold over 200 million copies. This places it above other well-known series such as Attack on Titan, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Kingdom, Jujutsu Kaisen, and My Hero Academia. With this lead, Demon Slayer is now gunning to surpass the likes of Naruto, Dragon Ball, Detective Conan, and Golgo 13. However, its success will largely hinge on the upcoming two movies.

Demon Slayer Movie Trilogy Might End Before 2030

ufotable Has To Release Two More Movies

As a die-hard fan, I can’t contain my excitement knowing that Demon Slayer is set to unveil three epic movies, wrapping up the captivating storyline. So far, only the first movie has graced our screens. Though we don’t have an exact release date for the remaining two films yet, there’s a chance we could get some exciting news before the year ends!

Based on past information, ufotable aims to wrap up their trilogy by the year 2029 (which appears unfeasible), but this might become a reality if the studio’s team puts in extra hours. As of now, there haven’t been any formal declarations, so we’re still left waiting for an update.

Demon Slayer is available to watch on Crunchyroll.
