If you need more Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba in your life, an English language version of the manga by Koyoharu Gotouge is available from Viz Media, while Crunchyroll currently streams the TV anime adaptation and describes the story of the series as follows:

 

It is the Taisho Period in Japan. Tanjiro, a kindhearted boy who sells charcoal for a living, finds his family slaughtered by a demon. To make matters worse, his younger sister Nezuko, the sole survivor, has been transformed into a demon herself.

 

Though devastated by this grim reality, Tanjiro resolves to become a “demon slayer” so that he can turn his sister back into a human, and kill the demon that massacred his family.
