I think it is important to note how well the animated series set this up and how they adapted an actual story, not an utterly unrelated side story (like the norm for properties like Dragonball). Considering the quality of TV in general, this might be a model that will be adopted.
Oh, and unlike the vast majority of Anime serieses produced today, Kimetsu no Yaiba somehow manages to appeal to the mainstream.
