Demon Slayer is a phenomenon that forever changed the anime industry with its out-of-the-world animation. Thanks to Ufotable, it continues to be a game changer among other modern anime series to this day. However, the Demon Slayer anime series is marching towards its end very soon. Thus, if you're looking for a new anime like Demon Slayer to watch right now, this guide has you covered.

The excellent action anime Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress, produced by the famous WIT Studio, was the highlight of the 2016 lineup. The characters in this anime are surrounded by a horde of zombie-like creatures called Kabane, similar to the demons in Kimetsu no Yaiba. As a result, the anime focuses on survivors who have boarded the train and flee to safety while fighting them.

Along with this, the protagonist of this anime also shares a sad backstory like Tanjiro. So if you're looking for an action story with historical samurai slaying evil creatures, give Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress a try.

Studio Bones' Soul Eater is a classic anime that is a joy to watch. Think of it as a toned down version of Demon Slayers as it doesn't feature heavy violence and gruesome moments. In this anime, we follow the lives of Shibusen students who do missions to defend their city from evil and collect souls to become the Death Snake.
