Currently,Kagurabachihas 41 chapters, with the latest one being released on August 03, 2025. The minimum requirement for an anime adaptation of a manga is a hundred chapters. But reports suggest that Shueisha has already filed for trademark documents for Takeru Hokazono’s magnum opus. One of the crucial aspects of the trademark documents is that they contain the right to ‘Animation Production,’ which indicates that the fans might get an anime adaptation of the popular manga.
Severalsocial mediahandles have hinted towards the anime adaptation ofKagurabachi. The manga’s biggest achievement is that it was recommended by Masashi Kishimoto. Even though getting an official confirmation, it is being compared to the likes ofOne Piece. Its massive popularity might make the new-gen anime a bit nervous.

Kagurabachi’s readers have only increased since its first chapter. It broke several records upon its release. While the fans might get excited upon hearing about the trademark, it is nothing new for Shueisha. Shueisha has a habit of filing for trademark.

Till then, Tanjiro and Yuji can enjoy all the fame.
