We’ve been fully enjoying the Demon Slayer hype at the moment. We’ve enjoyed the film, a re-watch of the series, some brand new Funko Pop Vinyls! and now some excellent news about the epic film Demon Slayer: Mugen Train.
Demon Slayer- Kimetsu no Yaiba- The Movie: Mugen Train has grossed over £1 million at the UK box office. The film has now grossed over $500 million worldwide which officially makes it the highest grossing anime film of all time. It has trumped Your Name and dethroned Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away.

Together with one of the most powerful swordsmen of the Demon Slayer Corps, Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku, they investigate the mysterious disappearance of over 40 people aboard the Mugen Train.
