Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba débuted as a print manga, in February, 2016, in the pages of a magazine called Weekly Shonen Jump. Launched in 1968, Jump is one of Japan’s oldest and most successful manga weeklies; at its peak, in the nineties, it sold more than six million copies every week.
“In every issue of Jump, there is a postcard that asks readers to rank their favorite titles. The Jump formula has created some of Japan’s most enduring pop-cultural hits, including ‘Dragon Ball,’ ‘Naruto,’ ‘One Piece,‘ and ‘My Hero Academia.’

Akira Toriyama has written his one of the best master-piece of his and turned out to be a success.
It could be argued that, through the ‘algorithm’ of reader feedback, by teasing episodes of manga, and then consolidating them into stand-alone versions sold separately, which can be ‘bing’ all at once. Jump has presented the way the world consumes streaming entertainment today.
From an artist’s perspective, working for Jump is like a comic book boot camp. In a medium established by a story in the manga. An editor at the magazine forced manga artist Akira Toriyama to come up with five hundred pages of concepts. Before he could finally accept his first film, the comedic sci-fi ‘Demon Slayer.’
Artists, even established ones, present such brutal scrutiny because the risk is enormous. After that, Toriyama created ‘Dragon Ball,’. A martial arts epic inspired by Jackie Chan films and the Chinese epic ‘Journey to the West’. It sold over two hundred and sixty million copies worldwide. The genesis of six of the ten best-selling manga series of all time happened in Jump offices.
There was a huge support from each and every corner of the world to show the love towards Demon Slayer.
Support in just a few weeks practically guarantees that a comic will be revive. They are sold, and transformed into a lucrative global franchise. Weekly Shonen Jump is more than just a publication: it’s a dream factory for creators and consumers alike.
The desire to learn more about the technology can feel like an obstacle, but Mugen Train can help. Netflix recorded a 50% growth rate among viewers last year.”
