It is common knowledge that Ufotable has a thousand and one ways to bring the world of Demon Slayer to life. The results are presented in extraordinary detail, from surreal backgrounds that defy the laws of physics, breath effects, to attack animations that blend color and light with perfect precision.
Not only the visuals, the background music by composers Yuki Kajiura and Go Shiina, plus new songs from LiSA and Aimer, make every scene feel alive. The music is not only loud and thunderous, but it truly elevates the emotions in every scene. This combination creates a viewing experience that is rarely matched for anime released on the big screen.
