Currently, they are also confirming if there were any close contacts with the actor.
The official notice has thanked the fans for their continued support for Hiro Shimono and apologized for any inconvenience and concern caused.
Additionally, there was a recent scare regarding the health of Akari Kito, the voice actress of Demon Slayer’s Nezuko. However, that was more of a COVID fluke, which spiraled into fake news.
Therefore, it’s essential to keep yourself well informed in uncertain times.
