I am not feeling attack but please don t make your personal opinion a fact its irritating.
if replying in an offending tone to someone who had never offended you whether accidentally or intentionally is not 'feeling attacked' then i don't know what is. Go read your initial reply again and tell me that reply isn't from someone who's feeling attacked.

Stop finding excuses and just admit it. What harm can it do?

Hah excuses? How is excuses when I simply telling the truth. Quite ironic coming from a guy who stick your noses in my business this has nothing to do with you either. I am done this conversation is over.

So Zenitsu has a double personality or something?
Stefanop22 said:
Zenitsu's potential split personality/alter ego compensates for his wimpy side, he could be potentially stronger than Tanjiro.The Boar dude seems super strong too. The animation is great and can't wait for next weeks episode.
he doesn't have split personality,when the fear and nervousness reach his limit he fall unconscious and his battle instinct make him move in his true potential,in reality he is really strong.

Wholeheartedly agree with this. I'd been thoroughly enjoying this show. The mood, setting and atmosphere were just perfect. And there was some zany humour, but not too much. Just enough to lighten the mood. And in wander those 2 that looked like they came out of some fanfiction manga with their one track minds. I know they're there to please some demographics, but I really hope that they tone them down, or develop them some. I don't think I can take Zenitu's screaming for episodes on end.


Actually most manga reader agree the first few arc until this point was the weakest part of the manga due to weird pacing. This is because the threat of cancellation from WSJ and the author inexperience. It only when the other 2 join the group then it get more interesting. I think because those 2 personality clash again Tanjirou. They maybe seen out of place at first, but as the story process, the scope of their character got more depth, they with Tanjirou form the dynamic: Tanjirou is the idealistic hero but naive, Boar guy is Tarzan who overestimate his own strength and Zenitsu is the straight everyday man. The fact that these 3 rub of each others and each learn something from the others is the testament to the author ability to make enjoyable character interaction. Ufotable had been fixing the pacing issue of the first part by adding scenes,t, that why most people who watched it feel the atmosphere was so difference


Just because they become more interesting characters in the future doesn't negate peoples negative opinions of them in the present. Don't just brush off other peoples opinions because you happen to know what they become later on.

And to the people trying to claim that him being scared of dying makes him relatable, you're right. Being afraid of death is totally normal. A realistic reaction would be drive for self-improvement such that you can more easily protect yourself from death. But him screaming and crying constantly like a little baby is not. It's counter-intuitive to actually keeping yourself alive, and is what makes him unrelatable.

Zenitsu might really end up being a likable character. And I'm willing to give the author the benefit of the doubt because of what I've seen so far. But right now, at this moment, he is undeniably annoying. Trying to say otherwise is just heavy bias, and does a disservice in getting others to take your opinion seriously.

So you're just a fanboy who can speak for every single person is the fandom.

See how annoying it is when you put words in other peoples mouths? Some guy randomly saying that 90% of people like something doesn't make it fact. Either show a poll or some other form of proof or let this guy have his own opinion without jumping all over him.

so what if you belong to the 10%? Why rage over it? What if it's 80%? 70%? Just because the OP used a statistic you're feeling offended and shit? So if he had said "most manga readers" you wouldn't feel attacked? Calm your fucking tits dude. And ur not included in this shit so fuck off.

calm ur tits he wasnt talking about you. plus he said "almost 90%" meaning anyone else belongs to the 10%, like you.


Thats not a even fact where evidence this so call 90 percent people love show because of inosuke and zenitsu. Fucking bullshit.


not sure about 90% but the manga sales began to increase greatly after their introduction

Honestly, Zenitsu and Inosuke have completely taken me out of this show. Both of them just unsettled the tone and atmosphere this series had and built over 9+ episodes. Yeah they look cool, and yeah their fighting abilities are great but the way they act, and their gag/one defining trait (so far) is really tiresome already.

Anyway, the camera angles and shots were on the money. Based ufotable, visually it is stunning. And I also like how Tanjiro's previous encounters play a factor - he hasn't healed properly and he is also fatigued. Good episode, he found the brother, he picked up on the demons abilities - then there was that Bruce Lee water philosophy +1 for that. Hopefully Zenitsu and Inosuke tone it down, I don't think I can handle them.


I recommend you to drop the show. Gag and comedies are integral part of the Kimetsu no Yaiba manga and it's one of the best in shonen. If you have it set your mind that this is all about humorless black and white sole revenge story, you are gravely mistaken.

There was already comedy in the show - sometimes subtle, sometimes out of place, but overall it was fine. But Zenitsu really takes me out of the show, like next level stretching your suspension of disbelief - well for me so far. Thanks for the recommendation, but no thanks.

As a manga reader, I can tell you this his character gets better.

One of the best episodes objectively so far. Introduced some nice dichotomies within Zenitsu and it displayed the psychology of Tanjiro, which I think could later take him to a tragic state of mind and would be awesome to see. Inosuke looks great and I can't wait to find out his backstory, but Zenitsu proved me right after last week. I had a feeling he'd be one of the best characters, and I can already see that form.

His forms are so badass, which also helps lmao

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.
As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are.
That's what death is, don't you think?

What is this dialogue... Why is everything dragging on so long?

Why is every episode the same? Every episode is exposition, and talking about everything they're doing or we've just seen.

Why is this show rated R but the dialogue caters to 12 year olds?

...gotta drop this, i'll watch the fights after this completes as that's all this show is good for. Even then I'm going to have to listen to the MC talk about everything we see with our own eyes every fight scene. Unsure how anybody can enjoy this.

Why are you forcing yourself to wach show you clearly you don't like?
Why do you think age rating have anything to do with dialogues? It's always about sex&violence level.

So from what I've gathered, Inosuke doesn't really consider himself a hero like Tanjiro does. He's just looking for entertainment. He also doesn't seem to be very aware of his surroundings, given the fact that he stepped on Teruko and launched himself off of Tanjiro. However, the fact that he seemingly self-taught himself all of his skill is incredibly impressive. I want to reiterate how cool of an ability this Demon has. I never imagined this anime/manga would be able to get so creative with the different demon abilities. Zenitsu telling that demon his tongue wasn't natural was amusing. Who knew Zenitsu was so powerful? That attack was pretty badass. So Kyogai was once a member of the Twelve Demon Moons, huh? That teaches us two things. Firstly, the demon that was able to rip the tsuzumi out of his back is on the level of a former Twelve Demon Moon. Secondly, by extension, Inosuke is very powerful as well, because he was able to mop the floor with someone capable of fighting a former Twelve Demon Moon. I hope we get a better explanation as to this whole "Marechi" and blood quality thing. That sounds interesting. It's impressive enough that Tanjiro has lasted this long with those injuries, honestly.
Not much more to say. Demons consume blood. Blood gives them power. The amount of power given by consuming a human depends on the type of blood. The Marechi blood gives the demon most power. That is it. It does not give the owner of the blood any powers or aything else.

I'm glad Zenitsu redeemed himself this episode, shows he actually has some real potential and isn't purely locked down to comedic value. The fact that he doesn't remember defeating that demon makes his rendition of the character archetype much more interesting.
Inosuke is so badass! Can't wait to see how he interacts with the rest of the gang based on the OP, I expect some fun lighthearted moments between the three.
Interesting to see that the demons have their consumption limits, the tsuzumi demon has a goal to rejoin the ranks of the Demon Moon 12.
These early demons seem very gimmicky to me, though I have to admit the rooms flipping around couldn't have looked so good without Ufotable's imaginative and innovative direction; I just hope the designs and sources of their powers become more in depth as the show goes on.

The use of 3D camera was crisp as always, I hope Ufotable continues to produce the series next season as I honestly can't see any other studio providing the same level of quality to this show that I have absolutely fallen in love with. KnY and Dr Stone are going to be some great forerunners of shounen for years to come

Zenitsu was bad ass this episode! He may be a whiny kid at times but he proves to be worthy of wielding that sword. His Thunder Breathing style is god damn quick! I wonder what's behind the sudden personality change though.

Inosuke, oh god, do I like this character a lot. He may be annoying but the VA does such a great job voicing Inosuke's character.

Overal animation of the battle in the tilting room was so well done! Just brilliant. Soundtrack is so good up to now as well.

I don't see why people hate Zenitsu I think he's a really funny guy (quite over the top but that's the point, he's a little dramatic bitch) and he has lots of potentials to improve. Also, I was one of these people who was bored by Tanjiro's goody two shoes personality and Nezuko's quirky kawaii-ness. I mean their interactions are just...dull. Zenitsu and Boar guy will probably bring new dynamics in the show, it's exciting.
