seems pretty logical, just literally turn the movie episodic so the more casual people (and there s a 99% chance there would be a good amount popping up even with the movie s success) that would complain about the next season being nonsense because they thought the movie was anime filler.
season was always gonna release later anyways so no harm in doing a reairing with the one extra anime original episode they put out at the start for the more casual side especially considering its literally just the movie with one extra episode and some extra animation shots to it,its not gonna take away from the next animated arc because the movie s already finished and the most workload they did on this unlike with something like DB super s first 2 arcs (which reanimated the 2 movies into 20 something episodes) was just one extra episode.

Here we go again Why did they do this and all that questions are you really expecting a Ufotable Executive to tell you the answer on MAL.

And if you are gonna preach about how they are doing this for money then why did you even bother making this thread.

For me If there's any kind of Content for animes that I enjoyed I would watch it, it's not like I have subscribed a site just for a Particular anime.

I look at it as a way for ufotable to produce episodes with minimal effort.
This means more budget can be spent on the next arc. I get that we've been waiting a long time, but ill take a dozen great new episodes over 2 dozen good ones

The Infinity train movie was already a huge success. Now they releasing it as a series based on the same infinity train arc . I enjoyed the movie but wouldn't wanna watch it again as a series ,obviously its to make money from its overhyped fanbase but still isn't gonna feel anymore enjoyable than it already is.

Its a lazy cashgrab and they are being greedy. Apparently 500 million of theatrical sales, selling more than 1 million blurays, millions of dollars of revenue from airing the movie on almost every streaming website and Japanese TV and what not, was not enough for them.

So they thought how can we milk this even further? There is literally not a single point in this. Not one. Its just pure greed and lust for money.

If I'm right the movie wasn't on TV in Japan (it is Blue-ray only I believe), so many people who watch the series in TV might not have seen the film. So they are redoing it as a series.

Well I'm enjoying watching it again. The animation is incredible and it will get me ready for the next Arc. Seriously, please don't turn into a moany person, you're too young to be this cynical. If you don't want to watch it, then don't. Nobody is forcing you. I could understand it if they weren't going to get the next arc, but we are.

Some people don't have time to watch an entire movie. They prefer weekly episodic anime. Also this is basically "easy money" for everyone involved.

pretty sure mainly to get hype since the 2nd season is coming soon. but also to include some things that didnt make it in the movie, without disturbing the new season. and since most of the people who's watching this alr watched the movie maybe they can get them to rewatch it lol

easy. just skip it. then wait for season 2. they already mentioned season 2 start in 8 December.

if they do it for money. no problem then. they really deserve it. kny is high quality. they may milk it as far as they can to recharge their budget. and we are welcome

but that's not the point.
rengoku/mugen rensha arc isn't over yet.
starting season 2 with leftover final part of previous arc is just not feel right.

they already did.
but not at much platforms as tv ver did

and why people are complaining about tv ver. since they added 1 new original episode + new op and ed song with good animation. + 70 new cuts/scene added for this arc.
it just ufotable flexing their power for the fans who waiting for season 2 airing in 8 december.

There's stuff in the manga that they had to skip in the movie to fit the pacing. Likely with a TV anime with new cuts they can finish off things like the unfinished Zenitsu Scene and the epilogue to the Mugen Train arc with very important information

I saw the demon slayer panel at New York comic con. They said there’s going to be an updated art style, bonus scenes, and even a whole new episode. Said something about 70+ additions as well. I guess there’s things they can do throughout a season that they can’t quite do in a film.

Most watched tv anime of the week beating Sazae-san which for a late night tv anime is basically a impossible thing to achieve, so nothing you pointed out means anything for Japanese audiences, Yaiba is a national phenomenon and they will support the series because they love it, get over it, Japanese fans don't care.

One anime-exclusive episode, additional scenes edit: additional animation cuts, new OP and ED, and people still are saying that this show is pretty much the movie divided into several episodes, lmao.

Seeing that kind of threads, or threads with people whining about how many people actually enjoy Mugen Train television series, is quite hilarious, not gonna lie, haha.

It proves all your arguments are useless, wasn't you bragging about "what is the point in doing this?"?, that's the point, japanese audiences WANT this, they're supporting it, nothing you said matters when the tv version of the movie is able to rank at the top of tv ratings beating something like Sazae-san, the success speak for itself.

And btw, lazy low effort? please, they animated a entire new episode that looked exactly like the movie and it will have many new scenes too, claiming this is "lazy" is pure ignorance.

All I see are rude and toxic comments thrashing Kimetsu no Yaiba, making all those posts look like nothing more than seething, and misunderstanding the whole concept of "70 new cuts of animation". By completely eliminating the possibility of brand new cuts appearing in the show, even if they would be short enough to be measured in seconds, but still would change the original scene somehow at the same time.

It's something basic enough to not require a lot of knowledge about how does cinematography work like. However I can imagine somebody writing something while being fired up by emotions, and forgetting about the real meaning of some terms or elements.

I should've been more precise as well. Saying "additional scenes" was vague enough to leave an impression that I was talking about 70 new animation cuts as being scenes unseen previously in the movie. Therefore yes, I apologize and thanks for noticing that. I've already edited my post ;-)
