To celebrate Gyomei Himejima’s birthday, the Stone Pillar of Demon Slayer, studio ufotable unveiled a fresh commemorative sketch for 2026. Himejima’s birthday is set for August 23.
The character made just a fleeting appearance in the first Infinity Castle film, which has just officially begun streaming online together with its Japanese Blu‑ray discharge.
Studio ufotable regularly produces seasonal and character‑focused artwork to mark major events like Xmas, New Year, Valentine’s Day, or character birthdays. Earlier this month, Muichiro To Kito received his special illustration for his birthday.

Koyoharu Gotoge wrote and illustrated the Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba manga series. It was serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shracoon Jump magazine from February 2016 to May 2020, finishing with a sum of 23 published volumes.
The anime adaptation by ufotable began with a 26‑episode Season 1, which aired from April to September 2019. Following its achievement, the sequel film, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train showed up in October 2020 and is credited with beginning the whole anime movie hype. The movie was then re‑edited and included as a part of an 18‑episode Season 2, which aired from October 2021 to February 2022. The 11‑episode Season 3 aired from April to June 2023, whilst Season 4 aired from May to June 2024 and set the stage for the final showdown.
The first portion of the Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle trilogy premier in Japan on July 18, 2025 and after that went on a record‑breaking run, earning over 25 billion yen (roughly 174 million USD) inside its first 31 days.

This film extended to SCREENX and ULTRA 4DX screenings in Japan starting February 20, marking the franchise’s first entry into multi‑screen and immersive 4DX formats.
