Demon slayer: kimetsu no yabai is an actual work of art, and forever will go down in anime history as being one of "the greats"

the story is a typical revenge plot, MC "tanjiiro" finds his family hurt, and goes out on a revenge path to find the one who hurt them and the one who possessed his sister, along the way he finds numerous friends and allys, and of course horrifying enemies "demons" with godly powers, each one more stronger than the last

the art style is absolutely stunning. It uses the perfect blend of CGI and Hand drawn animations. Not one character ... uses any cgi or 3d models *to my knowledge* , nor does any one use of CGI stick out horribly like a sore thumb *like most cg aspects usually do*

the fight choreography is also just as stunning, seeing the liquid like flows of their swords slashing through heads,the twists and turns to avoid attacks and so on. Each demon has unique powers and fighting styles, no two demons have similarities. *except maybe the spider family*

the character design is kinda typical. It has the overpowered MC, younger sister he wants to protect, lazy best friend, and super show off shmuck that thinks hes better when he clearly isnt, but it all oddly works out for this show.

overall i give this show/series a perfect 10/10, maybe a 9.9,
as im not a big fan of a show building up a super awesome storyline, just to say "FIND OUT IN THE MOVIE" i wish they could have progressed it more
but apparently the story arc for the movie is also one of the best arcs in any shounen manga of all time, so i am also hyped for the movie

TLDR; this show is a work of art, super solid art and animations, story, choreography all of it
