Being set in Japan’s Taisho era means that the cast of “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” don’t get to experience commercial air travel within the series. But the modern-day popularity of the phenomenally popular anime/manga is giving the Demon Slayer Corps the opportunity to fly on a real-world All Nippon Airways airplane, literally.
ANA has just unveiled its latest tie-up with Demon Slayer, a Boeing 777-200ER featuring massive portraits of three of the series’ most popular swordsmen. Up front, either side of the aircraft has an illustration of leading man Tanjiro, with Flame Hashira Rengoku behind him on the right side of the plane’s fuselage and Sound Hashira Tengen on the left.
In addition to the exterior graphics, the cast will be seem on special headrest covers, and the series’ aesthetics will be represented on special flight staff aprons.

ANA will also be offering exclusive merchandise through its in-flight shopping service, such as luggage tags and drink bottles.
