KOYOHARU GOTOUGE

Hello! I’m Gotouge. Here’s volume 14! It’s an

honor to see a Demon Slayer anime, figures and
other merch coming out. It’s entirely thanks
to everyone who supports me. I get feedback
from a variety of people, but when they tell me
something is wonderful or impressive, I think
their attitudes and sensibilities are incredible.
I'm grateful from the bottom of my heart that
such people pick up my book.
