Demon Slayer: The Anime Game-Changer Recognized by Naruto Studio President
The immensely popular anime series “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” has not only captivated audiences worldwide but has also had a profound impact on the anime industry, according to Naruto’s Studio Pierrot President, Michiyuki Honma.
Redefining Animation Quality
Honma has lauded Demon Slayer for pushing the boundaries of anime animation quality. The series features stunning visuals, fluid character movement, and intricate fight scenes that have set a new benchmark for the industry. Honma believes that Demon Slayer’s success has inspired other studios to elevate their own animation standards, resulting in an overall improvement in the visual quality of anime.

This broader appeal has paved the way for other anime to gain global recognition and has helped to bring anime to a wider audience.
Merchandise and Licensing Boom
The popularity of Demon Slayer has also sparked a surge in merchandise sales and licensing deals. Toys, apparel, home goods, and other products featuring Demon Slayer characters and imagery have become immensely popular. The success of Demon Slayer merchandise has encouraged studios to invest more in licensing, creating new revenue streams and making it possible for more anime to become financially viable.
Industry Collaboration
Honma also noted that Demon Slayer has fostered collaboration within the anime industry. The series’ success has led to partnerships between studios, publishers, and merchandising companies. These collaborations have allowed studios to share resources, talent, and expertise, resulting in more ambitious and innovative anime productions.
Legacy and Inspiration
In Honma’s opinion, Demon Slayer is more than just a successful anime series; it is a “major turning point in the anime industry.” The series has raised the bar for animation quality, expanded the global reach of anime, fueled a surge in merchandise sales, and encouraged industry collaboration. Honma believes that the legacy of Demon Slayer will inspire future anime creators and shape the future of the industry for years to come.
