Demon Slayer Volume 1, by Koyoharu Gotouge

In the manga, Demon Slayer Volume 1 ,by Koyoharu Gotouge, Tanjiro Kamado is a good-hearted man who sells charcoal in Taisho-era Japan. But a demon ends up killing his entire family, shattering his tranquil existence. The only survivor is his little sister Nezuko, who has been changed into a demon herself. Tanjiro embarks on a perilous quest to restore his sister to normality and defeat the demon responsible for his life's demise.

Tanjiro hardly knows where to begin while learning how to exterminate demons, therefore it won't be simple. If Tanjiro can prevent Giyu from murdering his sister first, the sudden emergence of another boy called Giyu who claims to know what's going on might offer some explanations.

Omg, the Demon Slayer series is on my top favorite manga and anime list! My favorite thing about this series is that the bond and the character development in this series grow stronger and stronger in each volume. I love how Tanjiro is determined to save his sister from brutality and change her back into a normal human being. Also, the artwork as well as the plot is amazing. Tanjiro is a very kind-hearted man. He even pities the demons. What can we say about that? I also love the fact that the setting happens in the old-time Japanese era. The historical era and the cold times. Every single character in this series has a very well-made and interesting background and also plot twists that we can't even imagine.
