Insane episode, UFO went really hard this time. I'm not a big fan of kny but this was absolutely cinema. Hopefully the movies are just as good!

Animation is amazing... Everything else is garbage. But that's been the case for this entire season (and the last one too, TBH).

I guess the pacing was okay-ish on this last episode... But after a whole season of nothing but filler that could've been shown in 2 episodes, that isn't much of an accomplishment.

And of course, the last arc is now gonna be split in 3 movies, if I'm not mistaken... *sigh*

Wow, what a finale this was, I figured it would be with how the previous episode ended, only problem with it really was showing the Muzan walk again, but I guess it was so awesome they had to lol. And although I figured it would be an awesome finale, I absolutely wasn’t expecting Ubuyashiki to blow himself up along with his wife and kids, I’m sure his wife was in on it but not sure about the kids since they were playing ball even with Muzan standing there, or perhaps they were in on it too because I did always find them creepy lol. And it’s funny too, I was thinking the explosion was Muzan’s attack at first, but I also thought it looked too much like it was done by explosives, and turns out I was right about the explosives when Muzan’s corpse came flying out lol, Muzan was at least kind enough to let Ubuyashiki speak but he wasn’t gonna get the same treatment, Ubuyashiki had that TNT breathing lol.

And the last moments of this episode were amazing, not only because of the art and animation, but also because of just how hype the moment was, Muzan is right there, unable to move because of Tamayo, and all the Hashiras plus Tanjiro are there, each of them wanting a go at Muzan, but then they were all dropped into the weird demon dimension we’ve been teased with throughout the whole series, which I’m guessing is the Infinity Castle because of the title of the next arc lol. And it wasn’t just the ones present in what was supposed to be the final battle, but every demon slayer as well, including Kanao, Inosuke and Zenitsu, although the two lads didn’t look too worried lol, I gotta know what made Zenitsu get serious like that. And with a final exchange between Tanjiro and Muzan, we were left with the credits and one last Taisho Era Secret, and Mitsuri actually took it over with a cameo by Rengoku, honestly very fitting, glad they did that.

And now we are at the end of what might be the last TV anime series of Demon Slayer with the recent announcement of the movies, I’m very excited for them but I’d be lying if I said I wanted movies instead of another anime season lol, but it is what it is, for now I’m gonna relish in the greatness of this finale. This season got shit for being slower and having less action, but imo it was a needed season and I love how Ufotable stretched out what was previously a very short arc, Season 3 was nonstop action after the first few episodes so I’m glad we got to see the characters of Demon Slayer in a less tense situation to really get to know them, I really enjoyed this season. And despite just being 8 episodes, we got another banger OP and ED pair, I don’t think they beat Season 3’s songs for me but that doesn’t mean they weren’t amazing, MY FIRST STORY and HYDE killed it.

And if this is the last time we all meet for weekly Demon Slayer goodness, it’s been an honor, it’s a time I’ll miss dearly. If these movies don’t come to a theater near me, I’m gonna have to make the longer drive because I gotta experience these in the way they’re meant to be.

Just watched this on TV now and I cant explain how amazing it feels to watch it again and again. This is absolute cinema. This episode is literally perfect in every sense. The explosions looked so good on a bigger screen. Himejima was a beast and the infinity castle keeps on looking better and better. I think I will spend the rest of my holidays rewatching this episode again and again.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

The animation inside the infinite castle and the fight between stone hashira and muzan is top tier. Even the explosion was beautifully done. Can't wait for the sequel, especially to see a different side of zenitsu.

It was a fine episode. As in, for what it was, the grade would be a D- at best. Reusing footage from the previous episode, all the unnecessary dialogue that amounts to "power of friendship, fam" and all that build-up to... a few seconds of fighting. Nothing spectacular. It did what it needed to: appealed to people with low attention spans/low IQ's. Jangle the keys a bit more, Ufotable. I think you missed a few.

The dialogue had me feeling how Muzan felt throughout that. The "is this loser still chattering" expression Muzan held throughout those first 20 minutes was basically how most people watching it felt. Why? Padding. Literally, padding. The reused animation was... why. It looked cool once. A second time, the appeal is diminished. Also, involving one's kids in a suicide bombing seems a completely unnecessary move. What was even the point of that? Upping the body count to make your child soldiers hate the big bad even more?

If Muzan could drag people into the Infinity Castle on a whim, why tolerate the Hashira for so long? Send out a scout who can text you when they found a Hashira, and pull that sucker into the castle. The rules of this thing aren't clear, either. What is the range? Does Muzan specifically have to exist nearby? Can anyone be pulled in? Is there a capacity limit?

I'm curious if that potion was meant to weaken Muzan before he could withdraw, because it did nothing throughout that few seconds of fighting.

I really want to know the wisdom of everyone attacking at once. I know a common criticism of Hollywood is that goons will charge a main character one at a time, but that's mostly because those goons aren't usually performing some kind of technique that potentially results in team-killing. However, most of those sword techniques the Hashira use tend to have a wide AOE, sufficient enough to reach a demon far out of the sword's actual range. Also, Kanroji's sword is basically rubber. That crap has to be perfectly swung so she isn't killing her allies, and that's assuming they're also conscious of where it is at every given moment.

By the way, everyone in the immediate vicinity of the mansion is dead. I give it maybe a few hundred meters out to be outside the decompression zone where your internals become more condensed than Campbell's.

5/10 because the few seconds of fight animation was good. The rest was just boring and mind-boggling.

Fantastic episode was completely immersed throughout the entire thing even w the dialogue between Muzan & ubuyashiki , ubuyashiki going out swinging was fantastic even muzan was surprised by his depravity. The animation was sublime as always. The sequence of Gyomei countering muzans attack gave me Tengen vs gyutaro vibes and the fact that this is just a glimpse I’m assuming of what we’ll get with the full on fights in the infinity castle arc has me EXTREMELY hyped, the only complaint I have is that we didn’t see the 3 upper moons. Overall if this was to set up hype for the upcoming infinity castle movies they more than succeeded because for the first time ever I’m actually going to hand over my money & watch the trilogy in theatres.

READY OR NOOOO, HERE WEE GOOOOO!

Incoming the Final Part!

Don't know how I feel about it being broken into movies, sure more quality animation and that but us Western fans are gonna have to wait a long time before we see it translated or even dubbed.

Unless they released it in cinemas worldwide like in the past.

ufotable did a superb job! (as expected)

The animation couldn't be more perfect. The explosions, all Hashira's coming and attacking in unison, they falling into Muzan's turf... They really created a great atmosphere for what's coming next. Obviously, as any media that have much appreciation worldwide, they did it in a way to grab a lot of money and attention, so nothing strange about it.

This season was good. When this episode launched, I watched all in one go, so my perception is different from those who watched it every week.

WTH! The end played with my emotions having Rengoku speak. Only the actives fell. Maybe the retired (and dead... let me dream damnit) go into action.

I hope we get a full season next.

So this guy was depicted as a Buddha through the whole show but he has no problem sacrificing his own daughters to try to kill his enemy and nobody of the “good” guys bats an eye. Animations are some of the best in the industry but I swear to god the writing is so bad

The return of peak Demon Slayer! All that filler feels worth it now (maybe)
Awesome way to end a somewhat slow season with an absolute bang
So this is technically the last episode of the anime as the rest will be the three movies, should be excellent, I'll definitely be looking forward to them whenever they come out

I truly believe that we reached the bottom of the japanese storytelling, nothing can be worse than this season.

At least Zenitsu has stopped yelling every second on screen.
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

2 episodes in a row where Zenitsu isnt being annoying or screaming as loud as he can, still think its way too late to fix this character, he was extremelly calm as well, even the Hashira were confused, also Ubuyashikis children are damn creepy like wth

as for the whole season well, once again the animation is the highlight an it carries this season unfortunatelly, story is mostly uninteresting an the poor attempts at comedy are starting to get annoying, it does have one impressive final episode though

amazing last episode but still disappointed by the whole arc the comedy/slice of life aspect of demom slayer really wasnt there this season and it gets boring when it continues to do the same thing for thr past 4 arcs where the beginning is boring and the last episode always slaps.i have hopes for this last arc as a manga reader cant wait to see this animated, i think this should be one of the best arcs
