This was an excellent and action-packed episode. Tanjiro trying the sun breathing technique on a Upper Demon while holding his ground. That's some insane shit to do for real. On the other hand, Inosuke found the worm slasher and I really laughed my ass off when he went zooming through the hole. Anyway, he rescued Zenitsu and managed to fight off the worm slasher together with Tengen and his two wives. The other one is poisoned but still alive. A few flashbacks here and there but it didn't affect the episode at all. But, they're monologuing a lot. Tengen is flashy as hell and I like that.

Better episode. Ufotable do a great job of elevating the action sequences and imbue them with emotion that the manga could never hope to replicate.

I still have my concerns about the quality of the writing and some of the storyboarding, but I'll leave that until after the season is over to see if it improves as the season goes on.

Sound and Thunder Breathing seem so alike and flashy. Feels like Zenitsu would pair well alongside Uzui. I hope we can see more interactions between these two.

Inosuke is right: Zenitsu should always stay asleep. Then, he is not screaming the entire time and actually pretty badass.

This was a nice episode. But it doesn't sit so tight with me that Tanjirou can hold his own for so long against an upper ranked demon. He should die in the blink of an eye if the power scaling is consistent, at least that's what it seems like to me.

So Tengen's family fully delves into polygamy, huh? No wonder he got 3 wives at a rather young age, although it was interesting to note that Sumi stepped up herself to become one of his wives.

Overall, the whole episode had a good balance of action as well as the flashback needed to flesh out the other characters more. Tanjiro is still having a hard time against the upper rank demon, but he's doing really well to hold his ground.

Inosuke and Zenitsu played their parts well, although the introduction of Tengen making his appearance against the belly robe and effortlessly dismantling it was pretty awesome to see. The animation quality of the fights were great, as expected and I honestly think it'll get even better as the battles get more tense. That's something worth looking forward to! =)

Am I the only one that thinks of Buggy the Clown when Tengen says flashy?

My favorite part was unconscious Zenitsu's thunderclap and Inosuke finally realizing Z should probably stay sleep. That made me laugh so hard.

I hope Inosuke at least goes to help Tanjirou.

Tanjiro holding out against Daki for so long is pretty impressive, also nice to see that he's more compatible now with Hinokami Kagura than his standard water breathing technique. Even if it's kinda a double edged sword.

Impressive as well from Inosuke to slice up the "worm belt" while also not cutting into the captured humands, good to see that he also managed to free Makio, Suma and Zenitsu in doing so. Zenitsu's thiunderclap never fails to amaze me, it's always epic when he gets into action, even if his character is a bit on the silly side at times. Totally agreed with Inosuke here, he should stay asleep...

Finally meeting all 3 of tengen's wives and I can easily say that Suma is by far the best... Nao Touyama is the perfect cast for her!!

Now I can't wait for Tengen to shine!!

Uzui's reunion with his 3 wives was surprisingly sweet. All 3 are ridiculously cute. Uzui is a lucky man.

Amazing animation, as usual, on the fight with Tanjiro and Daki. I especially like how nearly every move of his was elaborated on. Its still likely gonna come down to her vs Uzui.

Interesting how Makio and Suma sort of look like Zenitsu and Inosuke, but with their personalities swapped,

Zenitsu using the breathing technique that at the same time and strong, gave a little work for the enemy.
However, Tanjiro continues with the fight, and with the participation of Uzui, I confess that his entry was very nice and gave an enhanced to the enemy's attack.

I’m officially getting worried about this show. Character power-ups seem to be coming out of nowhere and are only explained by flashback sequences that break the flow of the fights. Still no fights that have wowed me, too much comedy that doesn’t hit, and too many flashbacks. I really hopes it picks it up soon.

Kinda mega asspull for Tanjiro to last so long against an upper demon. Daki be like, "I'm gonna go for the kill this time". Whoops, nah, Hinokami Kagura! Hinokami Kagura! Hinokami Kagura! *wheezes* Recovery! Hinokami Kagura! Hinokami Kagura! Hinokami Kagura!

Like, that is so fucking bullshit lmao. Obvious plot armour but cmon, Tanjiro should at least get some injuries to him by now.

That was a great episode. Tanjiro is using his Hinokami Kagura which I find suits him better than his Water Breathing. Inosuke is able to dislocate his bone to go through a hole which is amazing yet kind of gross. I feel like with what we saw with Tengen swordsmanship, that it's not even close to his full power.

About time too. I've had enough exposition (no matter how important) for the rest of the season. It should be all sauce from now on. Also, since it looks like Tanjiro's sword is going to break again if Daki isn't going all out and it's already nicked, I think Tanjiro will finally man up and use Rengoku's spare sword hilt. That will look so badass.

1) Sun breathing is very powerful. It is the first and strongest technique afterall.
2) Daki is very weak. You'll know why later.
3) Tanjiro did get injury. Not blood injury but he did hurt his body. Plus the fight just started. Real fight starts next episode. Trust me this is the bloodiest arc so far there's still lots to unpack

Eyyy, this was such a good episode. It feels like the Sakuga that everybody has been waiting for is finally starting to show up. Lot of amazing moments here:

1. Uzui saving Hinatsuru
2. Tanjiro vs Daki
3. Inosuke tunneling through the hole with dislocated joints XD
4. Inosuke vs the Belt demon, or whatever that was
5. Makio and Suma joining Inosuke
6. Zenitsu's Thunderclap and Flash. That legit hyped me up!
7. Finally, Uzui himself joining the party and cutting the belt into more pieces, also his moments with Makio and Suma.

Absolute perfection of a Kimetsu episode. Looking forward for more such episodes!

Tengen's wives tell me so much about his tastes in women xD
Also sorry but those have to be the sluttiest ninja outfits I have seen in "serious"/non-ecchi anime series so far. Was honestly hard to take Tengen's interactions with his wives seriously.

Anyways, leaving that aside, it was a nice action-focused episode overall. Tanjirou is practically sweating bullets right now against Daki so let's hope the rest can hurry up and save his ass before he breaks another sword.

I dont usually hype an episode up but I swear to God almighty if this ep gave you all goosebumps then next ep is gonna make yall crap your pants, yall aint ready for the next one, we all about to see a Tanjiro pissed off more than he was back in 19. I trust UFO will make the next ep a feast. Next ep is also one of the main reasons why people has this arc their favorite.

Anyways man this is the first time we have seen “dance of the fire God” used continuously, UFO really aint holding back with this series, it boggles me how people can hate this series when it just looks this fckin good and the interactions between characters having life.
Was the character Toyama Nao plays named “Suma”? The thiccest one among Uzui’s wives, she hella fine and adorable!!!
Tanjiro’s thoughts and lines will really pump you up, I hear a lot of Japanese viewers loved Tanjiro’s thoughts when he motivated himself to use “dance of the fire God” continuously, and his last “SET YOUR HEART ABLAZE”!
Inosuke and Zenitsu getting their fair share in the spotlight as well, still makes me laugh when Inosuke first hand saw Zenitsu in his sleep mode and made a comment on it on “just sleep forever, dude” Uzui also came in with a bang.
It amazes me how well the production value is with KnY, seriously every ep is like movie quality.
We got 3 chapters and an extra 3 pages of the 4th one, great pace! Lets go!

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?



Well personal advice, dont skip them during the next episode....


Thanks for the tip.

I have been bamboozled by season 1 and not just by ep 19 but every bits of turns and twist in storytelling it has shown me.
But this season has been more of filler than progression for me, stakes are ordinary shonen like and personal stake is minimum to non existent. I have avoided reading source as i was waiting for animation but i think atleast what that has been doesn't have same flavour as season 1 had.
I hope they end it sooner than dragging this arc.

no,i don't think they work as a prostitute,i mean there are other works too like serving drinks/food, household chores etc,and there is no information about what they work in the manga as .so.it can be anything.

Dont worry, you are going to find these kind of people everywhere.
Nobody takes a review seriously for a show that has only 5 episodes up till now. Haters would probably click the "Helpful" button to make sure that the hate reviews goes to top but those who genuinely enjoy the show wont even bother reading any reviews.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

11/10 episode. Nothing more to add. Beautiful animation, a lot of content put into just 20 minutes, and everything having great pacing. It was easily the best Yuukaku-hen's episode so far. Inosuke's random behavior scene was grand, haha.

Haters gonna hate on everything that is good looking and/or popular, to simply boost their ego. Similar people to them, or just trolls, will be just upvoting that kind of stuff. No need to care much about it. It's better to just enjoy the show.

Nice, flashy Hashira, Tengen Uzui-sama finally found all of his wives without much trouble. At first, i am confused why he led the attack to those ground, until Inosuke part (wild boar became wild mole, alright) explained why. Surprise that Daki used the underground lair to store out all of those humans, together with Zenitsu (?), and the last two Uzui's wives. Looks like that obi even had its own consciousness, idk why, or its just Daki ability. Meanwhile, Tanjirou still got a good game with Daki, alone, with all of his flaming determination. Till when Daki become more serious?

Interesting episode. Lets see whats come next....

And the introduction of the wives are pretty much a copy and a paste of Zenitsu, Inosuke and Tanjiros personalities.

But I really really like the voice acting and design of Daki though.

I don't know why, but ... somehow Tanjiro's duel in the manga made a much better impression on me, something was missing here ... I don't know what, but it came out average ...
maybe it's because of these unnecessary Tanjiro monologues that distract and extend everything unnecessarily
suma sumarum his fight... I didn't like it. I prefer stories from Inosuke, girls and Tengen

The PLOT in this particular episode was decent, not going to lie.



The only minor note is that they looked more like hookers than ninja, which is quite understandable for the arc.

This was a gorgeous episode. 3 new waifus unlocked. It was a treat watching Hinatsuru, Makio and Suma interacting and talking like that, their character desgins and voice actors are amazing, I especially loved Suma's cute voice.

It was awesome to see Tanjiro fight like that, he used Hinokami Kagura like 3 times in a row, that was awesome. Daki vs Tanjiro was flashy as expected. Too bad they didn't show the full fight.

Inosuke dislocating his joints just like that and entering a small hole just as big as his head was a completely unexpected thing to do.

Ufotable again managed to add some funny scenes in between intense battles, it was nice.

I especially loved the underground Suma and Makio interactions xD.

Stunning animation, it was really fun to watch the fire breathings coming outta Tanjiro's mouth, the fire coming off his sword's baldes and the thunder clap and sound of Zenitsu.

We see Zenitsu being a bad ass again, Inosuke be like: You should always stay asleep xDDD

Enters Uzui Tengen, its clear how much his wives look up to him and respect him. His interaction with his wives in past and also present show us how much he cares and loves his wives, still I wonder how tf is he able to handle three women.

"Starting now, things are about to get real flashy"- I take it as we should expect more bad ass action scenes and stunning animation in future episodes.

Sundays are gonna be even more fun now, good stuff is starting in KnY and SnK is returning. Good times.





The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama.

Haters are gonna hate, can't do shit about it. Every popular anime these days is getting similar treatment, its either bad reviews or just haters rating 1's on popular animes and voting "hated it" in discussion threads, they have even got bots now to do their dirty work. It's honestly just sad.
