Baseball is very popular in Japan, and this month will see the MLB World Tour Tokyo Series, which includes the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs playing at the Tokyo Dome. Japanese fans are also psyched to see professional Japanese players from Major League Baseball, like Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Roki Sasaki, Shota Imanaga, and Seiya Suzuki. Wanting to get in on the action, anime studio ufotable has put together a mini anime called MLB x Demon Slayer: Anime Movie that MLB is proudly sharing on its YouTube page.
You can watch a subtitled version or a clean version. Either way, you’ll soon see real baseball players in anime form, and Demon Slayer character Urokodaki hanging out with the announcer and talking about . . . you guessed it . . . breathing techniques. And it also goes a little into the history of baseball in the island nation.

Tanjiro Kamado – a boy who joined an organization dedicated to hunting down demons called the Demon Slayer Corps after his younger sister Nezuko was turned into a demon.
While growing stronger and deepening his friendships and bonds with fellow corps members, Tanjiro has battled many demons with his comrades – Zenitsu Agatsuma and Inosuke Hashibira. Along the way, his journey has led him to fight alongside the Demon Slayer Corps’ highest-ranking swordsmen, the Hashira, including Flame Hashira Kyojuro Rengoku aboard the Mugen Train, Sound Hashira Tengen Uzui within the Entertainment District, as well as Mist Hashira Muichiro Tokito and Love Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji at the Swordsmith Village.
As the Demon Slayer Corps members and Hashira engaged in a group strength training program, the Hashira Training, in preparation for the forthcoming battle against the demons, Muzan Kibutsuji appears at the Ubuyashiki Mansion. With the head of the Demon Corps in danger, Tanjiro and the Hashira rush to the headquarters but are plunged into a deep descent to a mysterious space by the hands of Muzan Kibutsuji.
The destination of where Tanjiro and Demon Slayer Corps have fallen is the demons’ stronghold – the Infinity Castle. And so, the battleground is set as the final battle between the Demon Slayer Corps and the demons ignites.
