Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment are giving the blockbuster Demon Slayer anime franchise an appropriately grand finish.
The partners revealed Sunday that they will release Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Infinity Castle, the last episodes in the hit anime franchise, as a trio of theatrical films in cinemas worldwide.
The three-part installment represents the final arc and culmination of the hugely popular award-winning anime shonen series.
Mugen Train, an earlier film installment in the sprawling Demon Slayer saga, currently holds the record as the highest-grossing anime movie of all time and the highest-grossing Japanese film at the global box office, with over $500 million in total ticket sales.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is based on the manga series by artist Koyoharu Gotoge published under Shueisha’s Jump Comics, consisting of 23 volumes with over 150 million copies in circulation.
The various anime TV and film adaptations of Demon Slayer are produced by Tokyo-based production banner Ufotable.
