This was awesome, especially seeing all the relevant cast taking on Daki at once. She's an upper moon demon but Tanjirou and everyone else combined together aren't pushovers. Glad they didn't forget about Tengen's wives this episode either.

Episode felt more than just about winning the fight or survive with the emotional stakes.

Looks like we found the wives finally! Although one of them was poisoned. Hopefully she’ll be fine.

Jesus christ, I will never not be impressed by the visuals and the animation of this anime. Moreover, the dynamics between Daki and Tanjirou make the action ten times better. What a feast to the eyes.

I’m glad Inosuke and Zenitsu also got some highlight against that ugly belt. Suma was also really cute lol and the muscular mice are back lmao.

Although the true MVP was Uzui coming at the end.
The wives are really good looking, and to see Uzui putting them first before anyone else is so cute.

The hype is real.

Looks like the fight has finally started and as expected Daki is no joke and since Tanjiro has to face her alone for now, he might be in a lot of trouble. It was very sweet to see that how much Uzui cares about his wives. That was very adorable. Also, he's so cool. His wives are all so beautiful.

Also, Inosuke got to find what he was looking for. He's still my favorite boy in this show. Daki is becoming my favorite girl in this show, doesn't matter if she's a demon. Zenitsu also got some action. Animation and BGM are just as cool as ever. The hype moments are incoming.

That was quite the harrowing experience for Hinatsuru, good to see that she's still alive after meeting Upper Rank Six Daki.

But she's a strong menace to be taken down, and Tanjiro really needs help facing her on his own, even worse when he's only tried Hinokami Kagura once on the Mugen Train, and has to strike a multiple chain on Daki which strains his body even further the more he uses it.

Inosuke on the other hand, is totally in his presence in the Ogimoto House finding the same demon, which is Daki's Obi trap. Saving others, Zenitsu and Uzui's other wives Suma and Makio sure brings a dumbfounded face, but man, Uzui in action is worth all that hype alone.

Also, Uzui is best civilized polygamist Hashira. To put their lives above their mission, he's a true chad. Time to make things real flashy!

It wasn't as action-packed as I thought since we got more explanations and kind of flashbacks during the fight like Daki vs Tanjiro which was already cool, seems like Tanjiro is stronger during his training when he has a fever.

The underground part is full hype with Inosuke and then Tengen's wives appearance and then Zenitsu and finally Tengen xD sure he's lucky to have three wives but they're also pretty good with that flashback, now I can't wait to see more of Tengen's action.

Tanjiro won't be able to handle Daki on his own that's for sure, she's too much for him. Also finally reuniting with all three of his wives, Uzui showing the hashira he is. And thunder breathing still rocks....

Things will get more intense from here on.

The episode hits hard when Tanjiro was performing one of the Hinokami Kagura techniques, and said “set it ablaze”, flashes back to the late Kyojoro Rengoku as a reminder that he had a big role in Tanjiro’s growth. The underground fight was amazing as well, with a warm brief reunion of the 2 parties, it seems that it’s going to be a bumpy ride from here!

Till the next episode!

The best action we've gotten since Rengoku's fight.

I couldn't help but keep imagining what if Inosuke crawled down a dead-end. However, knowing Inosuke, he'd probably still make it out.

It's funny to see that Tanjirou is fighting the Upper Six demon in the middle of the street, and meanwhile, everyone else is fighting her worm-belt minion underground. I imagine with Tengen's arrival that they'll make swift work of the minion anyways - especially as he still has one more wife to save.

Tengen's wives are so beautiful and hilarious especially Suma. When I heard Suma's voice, it reminded me of Yuigahama from Oregairu (wonder if they have same VA).

Nevertheless, can't wait to see Nezuko fighting scenes soon. Worth the hype after all.

The action rises as Uzui shows off those flashy moves! This episode has the most we've seen of him yet in the anime. We also got to see the anime debut of all three wives in one episode. Uzui saving Hinatsuru at the start after she was discovered by Daki taking that poison to flee but Daki gave Hinatsuru a piece of her obi belt to keep her locked up. Tanjiro still trying his best against Daki herself, him switching to Hinokami Kagura since water breathing isn't suited for his body and the Hinokami lets Tanjiro deliver more powerful strikes. Hinokami Kagura being easier for his body to handle once he can control it better. Tanjiro does pretty good holding Daki back even as her obi belt unleashes attack after attack. Cutting through it a few times and having smoother movements. Still not being enough since Tanjiro moves are not fast for the opening thread to stay visible long. Daki more or less toying with Tanjiro as the fight goes on, seeing what he can feebly do against her.

Inosuke burrowing under the ground making his way to Daki underground food locker. Dislocating his joints to squeeze into the obi sized tunnel. Discovering all the people Daki had trapped down there including Zenitsu, Makio and Suma. The other two of Uzui wives whom Daki found out were trying to spy on her and she stuffed them down there. Uzui using his sound breathing to blast an opening from the surface to this underground food locker. Some great animation in his entrance through that smoke and cutting the obi belt to smithereens. The power of a Hashira is fierce, time for them all to get to work!

People can say what they want about Zenitsu, but the dude always comes through in the clutch when he needs to. He may only be able to use that one Thunder Breathing form, but it always looks cool as fuck.

But the real highlight was seeing some action from TENGEN THE GOAAAAAT!!!! It was brief, but finally seeing him draw his awesome double swords and getting a cool moment was dope. Also, he has some pretty um...exceptional taste in wives. They all look nice and healthy ( ͡ʘ ͜ʖ ͡ʘ)

This episode definitely lived up to its title.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

This episode was crazy good. Hinatsuru was poisoned but Tengen found her in time to save her. Tanjiro is actually managing against Daki, but sadly however he doesn’t have the chance to fight her. As for Inouske, he is surprisingly shocking. He did locked all of his upper joints or arms just to work his way through the small tunnels. He is beastly shocking. He manages to handle the belt demon and saved two more of Rengen’s wives which are Suma and Makio. Zenitsu shows up to do thunder breathing which is always awesome. Then Tengen shows up thanks to his sound breathing technique. Now things getting flashy now. X3 and XD

Pretty good, the pacing is really well managing so far. I expected the fight between Daki and Tanjiro would last longer in this episode but hey, at least we got some cool flashbacks and how Tanjiro is having trouble controlling Hinokami Kagura.

Glad to see the wives alive, Tengen would be in great pain if something bad happened to them.

Finally, we get into the juicy action scenes!

We got Uzui's wives' backstory. Dude got 3 thicc wives at 15 lol. (Suma's definitely the best girl among the 3 though.)

Anyway looks like the next episode will feature more of Daki vs Tanjiro and


Also, I just realized the next episode will air on the 9th of Jan which is also the day when AOT S4P2 begins! Letsgooooooo!

Hinokami Kagura though sure proved to be a doubled edged sword though with its harsh side effect. Fighting hard to ensure that no one else has to suffer the grief of losing a loved one to a demon is admirable as a motivation. Inosuke's method of infiltrating the enemies lair really is just like him. Though i didn't think the lair will be unguarded its guardian was pretty unexpected. But so was the intervention of Suma and Makio and Zenitsu. Tengen's entrance really was dramatic but allowed him to not only get to the heart but also reunite with his his two wives. Loved the expansion into Tengen and his wives pasts as well. Though putting your life over the mission is not something that slayers should think off i thought it was the right choice. Overall an excellent ep that featured not only some nice action via Tanjiro and Inosuke's fights but some nice expansion on Tengen and his wives via their past well. While their reunion was sweet taking out Daki's food store should hurt her as well. Looking forward to next week. Before this ep my impression of Tengen wasn't exactly good but seeing his genuine concern for his wives really changed things.

Damnit!!! It was a good episode but this episode was titled Flashy or they alluded to it getting flashy so I was hoping and really thinking that we'd ACTUALLY see Tengen do some legit fighting in this damn episode. But instead he just cut the belt and that was that,. Definitely wanted more, although obviously they have to drag this fight out(or I think they do) since there's 6 episodes left.

Seriously I was confused about the belt, When it talked from behind Inosuke I thought that it was another Demon and not just a talking Belt that was connected to Daki. Anyway I really hope he fights Daki next episode. Also I loved Tanjiro's Sun breathing but it really blows that it has such a drawback! Like it's supposed to be the best of the best and everything else is just a copy, but he can only use it 2-3x before his body becomes totally messed up?

Not much fight and I think pacing little bit slower than usual(well I'm just overthinking it). Great to see tanjiro with action and he's a step closer to master sun breathing.
They sure have created a hype for next episode but next episode will be a flashback as far as title of episode 6 goes!!
4.5/5 episode!!

Edit:- Zenitsu's thunder clap was amazing and best part of the episode as well!!

Hey it's Nao Touyama's character, finally! I think I have my new best girl haha, she's so adorable <3. Makio is great too and I'm glad Hinatsuru is also safe.

Inosuke is so unpredictable, now he can also dislocate all his joints lol. And I agree with him, maybe it would be better if Zenitsu stays asleep all the time. Inosuke is pretty fun to watch, his fight was great.

So Uzui's family is full polygamy huh. Interesting that Suma stepped forward to be one of the wives.

What the fuck is up with this season?

I don't think the first season was this awful with the flashbacks and cutaways.

Pretty terrible stalling techniques on display since episode 2.

I doubt binging all the episodes at once will make watching this any better.

I'd probably still skip the flashbacks. They hurt the episode's sense of urgency so bad.

And those damn monologues. Everyone just monologuing.

Tanjiro monologuing. Worm-Sash monologuing. Makio flashback! Episode end.

What the hell happened?

This episode was pure hype, I was thinking "Gee Tanjiro, ruining yet another Katana" but it does makes sense since he is using a fighting style that isn't for him so he isn't slicing, cutting and defending as effortlessly as he should, this season is full of hot people, Tengen looking real tight on that flashback.

Honestly tanjiro's body has not yet properly adjusted to sun breathing. Slowly as the series progresses he'll keep getting better at it.

Nice, thanks I look forward to it. Just the fact that we only have 11 legit episodes and the first couple were pretty slow imo has me really wanting action asap and really good action. Can't believe it's like halfway over already
