Florida – The record-breaking Japanese anime film Demon Slayer: Mugen Train carried over its box-office buzz to the US last Friday, captivating Florida fans in its first screening.
The Demon Slayer film, based on a popular manga and TV anime series, has grossed over US$350 million at theatres in Japan, despite Covid-19 restrictions, surpassing Hayao Miyazaki’s Oscar-winner Spirited Away in just over two months to become the most successful Japanese anime of all time.
“It exceeded my expectations. I cried so much,” said 20-year-old Miami resident Alex Acosta. “The animation was so good. It was a great storyline, for sure. I loved it.”
