Love it or hate it demon slayer is surely of the best animangas out there.

The anime community has seen a large discourse surrounding demon slayer on one side we see people claiming animation carries on another we see people falling in love with the characters and stories and when i look at it demon slayer has outstanding writing.

tanjiro is a character who's life is completely forced to turned upside down by pure coincidence and is left alone with noone but his demon sister many of you know the story already so there is no need to give a further explanation on it but ... many will claim this is a very generic or basic story which i highly have to disagree too because this does not take the basic shonen formula many other shows take such as wanting to be the best or strongest etc;

story
When i hear people talking about the story and how they don't like it i think they are getting confused on what they are trying to say because for story demon slayer is very easy to understand and straight foward there is no waiting for 3 seasons to make some progression there is no keeping up with timelines or getting confused by so called complexity of a story that is not the case in demon slayer the story is very easy and simple and just cause is easy to understand by no means does it make it bad in fact it actually makes it good because it is something everyone can understand and enjoy the story is a solid 9-10/10

story progression
the story progression is something very nice in demon slayer in times it can be slow but im really of fan of that because you get the feel of how hard the journey to becoming a demon slayer for tanjro was it took him quite along time to be prepared to fight demons and even then it was still hard over all the story progresses nicely as tanjiro encounter stronger demons and meets new people who have all suffered in the world they live in the over all flow of demon slayer is extraordinary 8-9/10

protagonist
tanjiro is a beautiful protagonist and his ideals are something so well suited for the story. One instance in particular that i really like about his character is how his ideals are confronted and the thing is tanjiro has hope that his ideals will come through and we see this when he makes the deal to kill himself if nezuko ever kills a human but its not just this tanjiro's ideal can exist with others that aren't as similar for example most of the hashira hate demons and don't sympathize with them but thats ok because wether or not tanjiro or the hashira and other demon slayers sympathize witht he demons they will still make sure to kill them tanjiro's kindness is just a bonus he was able to receive by having a demon sister which makes his ideals nice to look at.10/10

side characters
all the side characters are very unique and i like that about demon slayer not just the slayers themselves but the demons too pretty much about everyone in demon slayer has a back story and like that alot because the backstories are all very different with some similarities of course however the backstories are really nice because it helps create the notion that everyone came from somewhere for example my favorite demon being rui was someone who just wanted to have a family because he thought his human family didn't love him even tho they did , regardless of their acceptance to his fragile body he felt he still needed a healthy one but it turned out bad and created his life to spiral downwards the backstories really help humanize the characters and add a lot of relatability to the story with real life implication of course someone irl isn't going to become some human eating monster but the need to be better is something very prevalent but even further the thought of needing to be better regardless of wether you are accepted or not is a nice story to represent and this is true for about 99% of demon slayer characters. the characters are by far my favorite part of demon slayer as they are very touching and its emotional impact is something amazing the comedy from characters like inosuke and zenitsu always feels right and necessary to lighten up the mood before a tragedy 10+/10

enjoyment
this was so amazing to watch i feel like i could watch it over a million times and never get bored of it in fact i've watched it 3 times already 10+/10

animation
the animation you already know is phenomenal by no means does this carry demon slayer at all but it is a nice bonus for such a masterpiece 10/10

ost
again its beautiful and such a bonus for a masterpiece 10/10

tl;dr demon slayer excels at characters which is why this is so good on par with many bonuses like good animation and ost and will surely become a classic in decades to come
