According to the official Twitter account of the anime adaptation of the manga written and illustrated by Koyoharu Gotouge, Kimetsu no Yaiba, the series is celebrating various events in the month of June, since the birthday of the character Mitsuri Kanroji on day 1 of June until the start of the rainy season in the Shikoku region of Japan.
In celebration of the former, the official Twitter account released an image commemorating Mitsuri's birthday and some images and panels from the manga, for fans to freely use as their account header.
Furthermore, the Ufotable animation studio also celebrates Mitsuri's birthday at the Ufotable Cafe located in Tokyo, Tokushima, Nagoya and Osaka, between June 2 and 21. Attendees will receive a beautiful themed mat in conjunction with the food they order, and can also purchase folders, acrylic stands, or stickers with illustrations of the character.【#6月1日は甘露寺蜜璃の誕生日!!】— 鬼滅の刃公式 (@kimetsu_off) May 31, 2020
