NetflixDemon Slayer proves to be the most watched anime on Netflix, leaving behind many prominent contenders.
Netflix’s viewership date of January to June 2023 reveals that viewers have watched Demon Slayer more than any other anime on the platform. The first season of the anime, in particular, has an astounding amount of viewership.
Demon Slayer Season 1, titled as Tanjiro Kamado, Unwavering Resolve Arc on Netflix, has been watched a staggering 95,800,000 hours.
