Snack Attack: Demon Slayer

With so many of us stuck at home, we’ve had the time to catch up on the latest shows or even to give shows we may not otherwise have watched a try. Anime isn’t considered a mainstream TV and film genre like it is in Japan, but last year Netflix reported a fifty-percent increase in viewership of the genre compared to the previous year. The new Demon Slayer movie, Demon Slayer: Mugen Train, took the crown from Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away for the highest grossing Japanese film globally.

If you’re new to the franchise, Demon Slayer or Kimetsu No Yaiba is a shonen manga series that got adapted into an anime TV series. It is set in Taisho-era Japan and follows Tanjiro Kamado and his sister Nezuko Kamado as they set out to cure Nezuko’s demon curse. The two siblings are the sole survivors of their family following a demon attack. It is also the incident that causes Nezuko’s curse. Its popularity is often attributed to its great animation, strong characters, and interesting story.

If you’ve watched the anime or the movie or you have family or friends who love the series, the Bokksu Boutique carries the perfect assortment of Japanese snacks to accompany a binge bender. The Demon Slayer White Choco Sandwich Cookie and Demon Slayer Choco Crunch make perfect gifts for anyone in your life who is a big fan and a foodie. Both Japanese snacks come in collectible tin cans decorated with the characters of Demon Slayer that can be saved once the sweet treats inside have been consumed. White chocolate lovers will prefer the choco sandwich cookies and chocolate lovers will enjoy the choco crunch snacks. Whichever you select, be sure to grab these limited edition treats soon.

If you’re not too fond of chocolate, don’t worry. Bokksu has other anime snacks that are sure to meet your tastes and love of Demon Slayer. Try the Character Biscuits: Tanjiro Team, which are small individually wrapped cookies printed with Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke, and Zenitsu. These biscuits are buttery and delicately sweet, perfect for sharing with friends at home viewing parties or even in movie theaters.

For those who prefer fruity chewy gummies, Puccho released a limited edition anime snack collaboration with Demon Slayer. Puccho is a popular Japanese snack similar in texture and flavor to Hi-Chew. The difference between the two is that Puccho’s gummies contain tiny flavored gummy beads within their taffy-like chews. The Demon Slayer edition of Puccho Japanese snacks is grape flavored. Each pouch features a bold and eye-catching illustration of Tanjiro or Nezuko and contains one of sixteen Puccho-exclusive Demon Slayer stickers.
