English Demon Slayer Spin-off Manga Release
Back in February 2023, Viz Media tweeted and announced that Demon Slayer: Kimetsu Academy is slated for release in Fall 2023.
Specifically, the spin-off manga’s first volume is releasing on December 12, 2023, based on a listing by RightStuf Anime.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu Academy is a comedy manga series that's set in school.
Tanjiro and his comrades from the Demon Slayer Corps are back, and they are ready to face their biggest challenge so far – school life.
Kimetsu Academy is a combined elementary, middle, and high school that has several gifted students.
One of the many stories from the manga shows Tanjiro and Zenitsu running late to class. However, only one of them has a good excuse to share.
Meanwhile, another story features Inosuke, Zenitsu, and Murata taking an incredibly difficult class.
Elsewhere, Uzui is mighty disheartened by Zenitsu’s art. Essentially, the manga is filled with such slice-of-life stories.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu Academy is written and illustrated by Natsuki Hokami based on the characters by Koyoharu Gotouge.
