Taking place in Japan, Tanjiro Kamado was a regular boy living with his family helping with tasks such as making food, gathering firewood, or just playing with his siblings. They have to be careful at night however, as that is when demons with a variety of powers come out. These demons will burn in the daylight, therefore the only time they can come out from hiding is during the nighttime. One evening, Tanjiro left the house to gather firewood and come back. When he finally reached his home, he could not believe his eyes. All he saw was pools of red, with his family members laying in the middle of them. The only one left was Nezuko, his younger sister; but she was not human anymore. She had been transformed into a demon. However, she was not hostile. She seemed to recognize Tanjiro and did not attack him as other demons would. Tanjiro made his decision right then and there; he would set out to try and find a cure to turn his sister back into a human to end her suffering and get revenge for his family.
With a bittersweet start, this story follows Tanjiro, Nezuko, and friends he meets along the way on his journey for revenge. I loved this series as it had a great plot and amazing characters. If you love action with a little hint of comedy, this series would be great for you.
