Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba continues to dominate
Despite its new season, “Hashira Training Arc,” which focused on a training arc rather than the customary demon-slaying action, the show finished in second place with a 6.3% rating. This is the third week in a row that Demon Slayer has kept this position, pushing the popular detective series Detective Conan to third place.
This outstanding performance demonstrates the Demon Slayer franchise’s continued appeal. The series first caught viewers’ hearts in 2019 and has since maintained their interest with its breathtaking animation, heartfelt storytelling, and intriguing characters.

While the emphasis on training may appear to be a gamble, it appears that fans are invested in Tanjiro’s journey and ready to watch him improve his talents under the instruction of the great Hashira. This arc could be viewed as a necessary break before the inevitable high-stakes confrontations that await.
Demon Slayer: different preferences of Japanese anime fans
The remaining rankings provide insight into the different preferences of Japanese anime fans. Established favorites such as Chibi Maruko-chan and Doraemon remain popular, while the magical girl series Wonderful Precure! appeals to a younger audience.

Overall, the rankings from May 20th to 26th establish Demon Slayer’s status as a current anime powerhouse. It will be intriguing to see if the series can sustain its momentum as the training arc unfolds and the inevitable battles take place.
