"Damon Slayer"Insect Hashira "Shinobu Kocho" Joins the Battle!

The movie version of "Demon Slayer" "Infinity Train" will soon surpass 40 billion JPY at the box office, May 10 is Purgatory's birthday, and the stage version of "Demon Slayer" Kizuna will be performed in August 2021. Even though it will soon be a year since the end of the original series, the popularity of " Demon Slayer " is only accelerating.
The most notable of these is "Demon Slayer: Hinokami Chronicles", scheduled for release on PS4, PS5, Steam, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S|X by the end of 2021.
So far, eight characters have been introduced to compete in the Versus mode, and five of them are water breath users, which is pretty lopsided, but as expected, it doesn't end there.
The next character to join the battle was announced in the "Kisatsu-Tai News" that appeared in the Monday, May 10, 2021 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump #23!

Sabito & Makomo participate in "Demon Slayer-Hinokami Chronicles"

"Shinobu Kocho" will be joining the game!

The new character announced to be joining the Versus Mode is "Shinobu Kocho", an important and popular character in the game!
In conjunction with the announcement, a "Character Introduction Movie 09: Shinnobu Kocho" was also released, which shows the quick and beautiful fighting style that is typical of her, focusing mainly on stabbing attacks.

The fact that it is Tomioka-san who is being beaten to a pulp... lol.
You can also see the flashy performance of "Mushi no Breath, Butterfly Dance, Frolicking"!

Which character will be next!

For the first time in a long time, we are excited to announce the entry of a character other than a water breathing user, and that character is the popular "Shinobu Kocho".
It seems that more and more new characters will be announced, but I am concerned that not a single demon has been announced yet.
Which character will be next?
Perhaps another announcement will be made in Weekly Shonen Jump, so let's wait for the release of Weekly Shonen Jump issue 24 on Monday, May 17, 2021!
