#Universal Studios Japan to Host Interactive Demon Slayer Attraction

Universal Studios Japan in Osaka has made a habit of welcoming anime into its theme park. As part of their “Cool Japan” events, they bring in rides and events based on titles like Sailor Moon, Attack on Titan, and Neon Genesis Evangelion to appeal to overseas attendees. Soon, they’ll be adding another worldwide hit to the roster: Koyoharu Gotouge’s Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.

 

 

The announcement came today, alongside the above key visual for the upcoming collaboration. Starting later this year, the park will host attractions bringing the world of Gotouge’s hit series to life. So far USJ has teased live swordfights demonstrating the characters’ many fighting techniques, as well as the expected original food and goods.

 

On July 1, the official Twitter and Instagram of Universal Studios Japan will begin posting previews of what’s to come in the Demon Slayer collaboration. Look forward to new recordings from Natsuki Hanae (the voice of Tanjiro) and Akari Kito (the voice of Nezuko) as the announcements roll out.

 

The Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba attraction is scheduled to run at USJ from September 17, 2021 to to February 13, 2022.
