Just got back from watching this w/ my daughter. We both really enjoyed it. I'm not a big anime or manga fan, but my daughter has been into this series and has watched it all the way through on Neflix multiple times. She was begging me to take her, so I watched the series a few months ago to catch up, and to my surprise I enjoyed it quite a bit.

It picks up right where the season 4 ended, so don't go see it unless you have watched the series or read the manga or you'll be lost. Also, it's the 1st of a trilogy of films that wrap up the series.

I binged the show this week so I could go see it with my sister. I really enjoyed it. Plus, I really hate Akaza.

That's tough because there is quite a few seasons leading up to the movie.

Well, if you've watched Dragon Ball Z Abridged, you'll appreciate this.

Here's a good series summary that should catch anyone up.

I guess what I meant is, what's the premise of the show? At least season 1. What's it about and should I dive in

Demon Slayer is a really fun show, probably my second favorite anime on Netflix after Castlevania. Highly recommend it to anyone that's remotely interested in this kind of thing.

Thanks all for the heads up on needing to watch the series. I thought about seeing this, but didn't know if I needed background.

From Wikipedia:

In Taisho era Japan, a secret organization known as the "Demon Slayer Corps" has waged a war against demons for centuries. Demons are former humans who possess supernatural abilities such as enhanced strength, rapid regeneration, and unique powers referred to as "Blood Demon Arts". Demons can only be killed if they are exposed to direct sunlight, decapitated with weapons crafted from an alloy called Nichirin, or injected with a poison extracted from wisteria flowers.

In contrast, the Demon Slayers are entirely human but employ specialized elemental breathing techniques known as "Breathing Styles". These techniques grant them superhuman strength, heightened abilities, and increased resilience that enable them to fight demons effectively. The most formidable Demon Slayers are known as the "Hashira" and gain this title through multiple advancements in the Corps' ranks, culminating in killing fifty demons at the highest level or a member of the Twelve Kizuki.

Season 1 follows the main character, Tanjiro, as he joins the Demon Stayer Corps following a demon attack on his family.

Much appreciated! I would have wiki'd but that's burned me before.
