| Whoa whoa whoa! That sakuga animation caught me off guard. Ufotable don't miss man. It was simply sublime. |
 |
| I literally got goosebumps when tanjiros fight started ! 🤌🏻 |
  👻🎃          🎃👻 |
| One of the swordsmiths having a blade ready for Tokitou but gets interrupted by Gyokko, so now they have a battle going on. Mitsuri coming to help a hand in the village by demolishing those giant fish ugly eating monsters. Nezuko giving all her strength towards Tenjiro's blade and holy shit, It has been forever since I heard Nezuko's voice. Tanjiro going through a transformation and slaying all the demons in one piece, that animation looked sick, not gonna lie. Genya turning into a demon? there's no way. A lot of action packed content this episode. Btw these visuals are next level.  Mod Edit: Removed image; Posts must not contain more than one screenshot. |

Mandem are full-on arguing over her whilst bleeding out not that I blame😂😂. I have to ask how does her sword fit in her sheath??????? Naa number 5 is pure evil even the other ones didn't torture their victims they just straight up killed them. Maybe they did but off-screen. Damn, he took all of those needles face on I have to respect it. That was smart of Nezuko to upgrade his sword like that. WAIT WHAT TANJIRO POPPED OFF😲😲 I'm so confused is TANJIRO A HASHIRA???????????????????????? It would make sense now if Genya were a demon because a lot of things weren't adding up Mod Edit: Removed image; Posts must not contain more than one screenshot. |

| Muichiro is a nice guy he took this needles of poison to defend these two. Gyokko seems to be very fast with these vases. Mitsuri took out the big fish with her love. These scenes with tanjiro his scarf are getting bigger. And these dragon holy dances what an amazing animation. |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| While not quite the same as intended, the combination of Nezuko's demon burning blood with Tanjiro's nichirin gave off the same sort of power as a red blade. To the point that Rank 4 was experiencing the same fear Daki felt back when Tanjiro went into an all out rage. While it took training and work to get to that point...I doubt that taking out the Upper Moon is going to be that easy. Weakened, but likely not finished. Finally got to see Genya in action, but it seems like he's been infected :'( Hopefully he's able to bring it under control and continue to fight like Nezuko. Don't want to see him go out so soon. |
 |
| Got to see Muichirou go up against upper 5 and get into quite the predicament. Mitsruri arrived just in time, we even got to see one of her love breathing techniques. That technique by Tanjirou at the end was animated so well. |
 |
| Finally the animation episode I waited for |
Phosphophyllita said: Another terrible episode, Ufotable saves their budget for these brief moments of Tanjirou that last 2 or 3 seconds but will go down in history as "the best animation of all time." I'm amazed at how this anime struggles to make characters speak normally, except for the Mist Hashira and that Akaza, everyone just screams. Not even Kanroji's hotness will save it. And it seems like pulling things out of thin air is Kimetsu no Yaiba's modus operandi, why bother building something when you can just pull it out of thin air and then use a flashback to justify it? Abysmal, as always. I was kinda falling asleep until those 20 seconds of good animation, but remember this, people just know the names of studios like MAPPA, A-1, Cloverworks and Ufotable, so of course Ufotable is the one that comes out on top when compared to mediocre studios, not saying Ufotable is bad, but just because they are good doesn't mean we should forget Kyoto Animation and Production IG exists. |
| My god that was such a great episode! Tanjiro wielding and using that exploding blood sword was so cool and the animation there was beautiful!! And now Genya has turned into a demon too which is the last thing i expected but then again the last time we saw someone turn was nezuko so it's interesting seeing it again but for Genya. anyways once again this ep is a 10/10 |
My Candys!  |
| I guessed that reveal episodes ago, but I'm still wondering if it's a bloodline thing similar to some real-life mythical Japanese figures with oni ancestry or if he was simply turned at some point in his life like Nezuko (which seems like the boring answer). |
| It's been a while since we had a show with Dragon Ball Z pacing. This one might be even slower. Shots and animation are great by story progresses like snail on xanax. They sure love dragging this one out. It seems they stretched 3-4 episodes worth of content into 24, and then of course cliff-hanger at the end of every single one of them. |
MinoGelatino said: It's not even close to #1 for me. Visuals are awesome. Story is nothing too interesting. Characters are just okay. Stretching one episode worth of content into 5 is not doing it any service either.Holy shit what were these visuals?! Makes me want to make demon slayer my number 1 anime. |
yvngdez5 said: ForThaWatch said: wow the power levels in this show are confusing af. one second tanjiro is getting his ass kicked by a robot the next second he's soloing an upper demon. whereas the hashira that easily beat the robot is struggling against an upper level vase demon Idk if you were paying attention but it was clearly stated that upper moon 4 is weaker when split and the more they split the weaker they get, also wouldn’t it make sense that tanjiro would get stronger from the training with the robot And those people are gonna spread the notion that DS has poor writing. 🤦♂️ |
 |
| These episodes have been way too short, I hope we get to see more of Mitsuri fighting though, that's my only real complaint, I like how that gene memory goes for both sides, we should finally know what's the mystery behind Genya. |
| Mitsuri is finally joining the action, and damn that whip-like sword is sick, it efficiently fucked up all those fish monsters, and seeing her happily sheath it in the post credits was cute lol. And Tokito has now come face to face with the next big baddy of this arc, being Gyokko, and we had the amazing opportunity to see his artwork and I’m ngl, I think I hate it lol, no offense to Gyokko, but I guess the blood water fountain is a cool addition. And after it initially looked like Tanjiro and Nezuko were badly hurting things quickly turned around when Nezuko turned Tanjiro’s sword into a sick flaming sword that gave us a fantastic scene where he decapitated three of Hantengu’s clones, definitely one of the nicest looking scenes of this arc so far. And later it was revealed Genya dealt with the 4th clone but he doesn’t look so good lol, man drank too much monster energy. Also I doubt that was the end of Hantengu, at least I hope it wasn’t, that seemed too easy to me. |
| First good episode of the season, hope it carries on this way. |
Perseus40 said: gurusensei said: So now tanjiro's good enough to basically defeat upper moon 4? Sounds illogical but I am not complaining. That move in the end looks sick as fuck though. You really think that Upper Moon 4 is dead? I would be totally ok with it. Just because a fight ends quickly doesn't mean it was easier. These are life or death sword fights, not arm wrestling matches. As a comparison, I refer to one of the greatest anime of all time, Ninja Scroll: Make one wrong decision, and you're dead |
| I just think Mitsuri is neat But this was the best episode so far of the season, great sequence at the end and a good cliffhanger, good stuff |
