Kimetsu no Yaiba Movie 1: Mugenjou-hen - Akaza Sairai

It’s a fun movie, especially for fans, but there were quite a few things that bothered me.
Some continuity errors, the pacing, the soundtrack choices, and even the animation itself.

The movie starts off strong—great use of CGI and some amazing visual direction—but as it goes on, you start to notice the quality dropping, with less fluid animation and a lot of static panels.

The soundtrack has that classic Ufotable vibe, with synthetic and electronic sounds that fit really well in Fate works, but for me, they didn’t quite match the theme of Kimetsu.

The pacing also threw me off, since it often felt like I was watching back-to-back ... anime episodes. The acts didn’t flow well together, and there were too many climaxes and resolutions that didn’t really land at the right moments for a movie.

I won’t say much about the continuity errors to avoid spoilers, but if you’re the type who pays attention to small details, you’ll definitely notice them.

That said, I still recommend watching it—it’s fun and emotional, and that’s really what we’re looking for at the end of the day.

You can tell this is an anime series and not a movie. The direction and pacing of the movie feels like very separate situations without any relation between them. The background stories are too long and cuts the climax of the movie. I feel like you could do a better job combining combat with the background of the enemies. Especially for the last fight. At the end of the movie you don't get the feeling of a shonen-like final or any cliffhanger making you expect the next movie.
Besides that you will still get the undisputed high quality level of demon slayer and get reminded of ... the beauty of animated movies.

Don't bother wasting your time and money watching this in theaters. Just wait the web release.

I was really looking forward to watch this movie after the latest episode of the Hashira training arc.
But this isnt a movie, its a TV show episodes compacted in 2hours

Flashbacks were unbeareable, pacing is garbage, story is garbage
Dialogues are the most mundane shit you could ever listen
Motivations/backstory of Demons are so simplistic you wonder who the fk wrote this and thought it was a good idea.

Fights as usual were top notch
... Sound work incredible/10
Voice Acting incredible/10

Its such a shame to waste such talented animators on this garbage.
