"The allure of Asian demons, displayed on screens, recorded on tapes, or in print, captivates the global youth"
In the realm of entertainment, two groundbreaking productions have recently taken centre stage, causing a significant stir. On one side, we have the highly anticipated trilogy, "KPop Demon Hunters," which has yet to release its first installment. On the other, "Demon Slayer - The Infinity Fortress," a Japanese saga that has invaded screens from New York to Los Angeles.
The success of both productions is making waves. "Demon Slayer - The Infinity Fortress" has achieved the best opening ever for an animated film at the American box office, earning an impressive $70 million (€59 million) over the weekend of September 13 and 14. Meanwhile, the animated musical feature film "KPop Demon Hunters," produced by Sony Pictures Animation for Netflix, has become the most watched original film on the streaming platform, with 236 million views since its launch on June 20.
"KPop Demon Hunters" is a Korean saga, while "Demon Slayer - The Infinity Fortress" is the second installment of a successful Japanese saga. Interestingly, four songs from the "KPop Demon Hunters" soundtrack are among the top ten of the weekly ranking established by Billboard magazine, with the number one song ranking in the top ten as well. Similarly, "Demon Slayer - The Infinity Fortress" has enjoyed success without the payment of any duties.
The director of "Demon Slayer - The Infinity Fortress," Haruo Sotozaki, has masterfully brought the Japanese saga to life on the big screen. As for "KPop Demon Hunters," it is part of a trilogy, with the first installment eagerly awaited by fans.
Interestingly, the transfer of TikTok's American operations, originally owned by the Chinese ByteDance, to Texan and Californian hands by Donald Trump, has not been mentioned to have affected the success of either of these productions.
In conclusion, the entertainment industry is abuzz with the success of "Demon Slayer - The Infinity Fortress" and the anticipation for "KPop Demon Hunters." Both productions serve as testament to the global appeal of captivating storytelling and exceptional animation.
