*Minor spoilers from the Manga and season 1 of the anime*
Now, when first watching this show I didnt quite understand the hype behind it. Yeah sure the animation was good and the fights were some what cool but the story and characters were lacking quite a bit. And to be honest I still dont get the hype and claims of how its the "best anime of the season".
story:
The story is fine, but is somewhat basic and generic. Its a typical tragic event drives our main character to achieve their goals and make things right, or get revenge and thats exactly what kimetsu no
...
yaiba does. Its story is fine, but isnt anything unique and wasnt something I found myself extremely invested into. (Rating 6/10)
Art:
Now this adaptation of the manga is absolutely stunning. The different breathing styles and techniques help make the colors and art in this show amazing. The different elements flashing across the stream out of the demon slayers swords is just so beautiful and wonderous. Compared to the manga, which fights were bland and colorless, this adaptation helps give them beauty and life and the art is definitely
a highlight to the show. (Rating 9/10)
Sound:
The different sound effects compliment the art and fights like butter on bread. They are a great addition and sound very well done, and satisfying. Not much else I can say about that. (Rating 8/10)
Character: Now I personally dont have much of a problem with most of the characters, except for the fact that they lacked variety in personality and depth. Every single character has one character trait, and one only. Tanjiro is a kind soul who will do the right thing (at all times), Zenitsu is a whiner who cant get over nezuko, and Inosuke is always trying to pick fights with others. Those are just a few examples of the bland traits some of the mcs have. I did find myself enjoying some characters but I still find them to be bland and lacking in terms of personality and depth. (Rating 6/10)
Enjoyment:
I found myself enjoying the show despite some problems I had with the story and characters and thought it was a great time in the end. If you are a big shounen fan then you should definitely check it out, as its a fun and entertaining time!( Rating 8/10)
