| A really good episode, can't wait for what comes next for Nezuko and Tanjiro, Nezuko chase scene was just too cute lol. I am also glad to see our MAN, Tomioka, Giyuu, defending Tanjirou, let the trail begin. We also got a glimpse of the Hashiras, and yes of course, there's always going to be that one dressed in a certain way that would make you wonder why they don't catch colds often. |

| Mother of god Nezuko running as a chiby was so much for me |

HereticHunter said: Right. I totally forgot people complain to everything nowadays. When for one time, in a short shounen have a some character development, even for someone few will care anyways, people still complain about that. In all the tension we have had so far, they're taking a bit slow and it'll be like this for pretty much the next two episodes, as they're introducing many new characters.Why is this anime so fucking slow? Literally almost nothing happened on this episode. There's no need to expand on the demons backstory that much, it wastes a lot of time, Spidermom's backstory was shorter and it was easier to sympathize with her. Can't say the same for the rest of this "Family" It does not help either that Shinobu keeps triggering Giyuu while not letting Tanjiro or Giyuu explain themselves. All that time wasted served nothing because in the end they'd be taking Tanjiro and Nezuko to the pillars anyway. |

I think I should edit my main post so I should stop getting replies of people telling me the same thing over and over again. I'm not against having these backstories for the villains, the problem is, that almost nothing plot relevant happened on this episode. This show already spends so much time on these backstories that they end up dragging them too much it makes the plot progression really slow. We've been 6 episodes on the same place and only about half of them were relevant. |

| Loli Nezuko is so cute. Wish she would stay that size forever. (especially when inside the backpack... less weight to carry, lol) |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| I get the feeling that everything is not black and white here like it's not as simple as demons slayers vs. demons. Cause we've seen friendly demons so probably in the future Tanjiro's gonna fight the whole demon slayer corps lol or maybe perhaps just a couple of these hashiras |
 |
| While i know she was on the right, Kocho was getting on my nerves with her insistence to kill Nezuko off. Poor tanjiro couldn't catch a break, it's a miracle he hasn't died from all those injuries already. Dunno why but all these Hashiras except Tomioka look like assholes. |
| Aww yeah, finally the Pillars are all here. |
 |
| damn the episodes has been so much better then expected |
 |
| A pretty good episode.Even if i find the male characters to be extremely boring so far in this anime. The females are much better and shines through. Shinobu is an alluring beauty and fun to watch! Hopefully there will be a lot more of her in the future .I really wanna see her go all out!! Even with irritating male characters it's a decent anime so far overall!! And the action is flashy and entertaining!!And the story dont waste to much of its time with stupid shit!! I like that,Nice pacing, i give this anime 5/10. For now!!!  |
 |
| So many kids here, heh... That first half almost made me rate 1/5 this episode, it was so stupid. At least things picked up after Shinobu arrived, so i'll just pass as usual. Zenitsu looking good as a mummy, LOL. Those crows showed up at such a convenient moment, were they having fun hiding and watching best imouto get chased? |
| @kirbo Get used to it. In Kimetsu no Yaiba the characters gets introduced early, you don’t see them for like 100 chapters, and then the author focuses on them. That’s just how her storytelling is, a clever one in my opinion. For example, the other two kids that survived in the Final Selection. The girl gets some screen time in this arc we are entering now, but then you won’t see her for like 90 chapters. The “angry boy” gets properly introduced deep in the manga, after 100 chapters. Of course, the same goes for some pillars and the main villain. One thing the author is good at is not forgetting elements or details. The blood collecting quest was not forgotten. In this fight of course Tanjirou couldn’t collect it because he was too much injured, and Giyuu was the one killing him. Later on you wil get an important development in this plot point. Same goes for the “marechi” thing (rare blood). About the first demon Tanjirou encountered... do I even have to say this? Would you easily murder someone you know killed other people. I think that the answer is quite obvious, you would 100% be hesitant about it, for sure. As for the other demons, it was said this episode that Tanjirou only forgives some demons, not all of them. Like the Swamp Demon, and other demons he will meet in the future. Cause he can ”smell” when a demon is giving off a scent of regret, sadness, etc... so yeah, Tanjious does feel for them, but will still kill them. So it’s up to you how to view his sense of forgiveness. |
| What a fantastic episode! As always, an amazing backstory that will make you feel a little bad for the villain, what a sad story. The butterfly girl has her reasons, it's obvious, but what a coincidence that the other guy is the one who saved Tanjiro and let him flee with Nezuko without killing her, that's why he was protecting them! That ending wow! So slaying corps also have some elites too, that's great! Best moment of this whole episode! I almost died of laughter when Nezuko became small ahaha  @OrangeJP |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| Such emotional episode. Tanjirou didn't collect Rui's blood, what a shame. Suzuki was so cute when she tried to run away! ;D That ending showed some more charzcrers. I guess next episodes will reveal some more informations about them. For now we only know they are the strongest among demon slayers. |

| “You should enjoy the little detours to the fullest. Because that's where you'll find the things more important than what you want.” |
| Next episode will be a banger, simple. and smol Nezuko is adorable. |
| Man the backstory is real, shedding light on Rui's past really put a tear in my eyes. Good thing Tomioka remember who Tanjirou is! |
 |
| why every demon always had a pretty sad bakcstory.. damn Riu's one hit me hard. some uwu nezuko right there/ I like how there's a conflict between hashiras and the way tomoika starts disobeying the rule for nezuko. also the medical teams looks funny to me dunno why.. i wonder how they put nezuko back in the box.. |
  |
| Oh boy, Tanjiro is in trouble I guess. |
 |
| Ok, Rui's dead was very moving, ngl. |
 |
| one of best anime of 2019 and the best Character of all time Tanjirou Kamado very cool episode |
 |
Himawari9 said: Oh. Yeah? Thanks for the inf. I was reading the manga while the emission but not too far enough. Ant161718 said: I don't know if I was the only weak person that cried like a baby with the sad story about Rui, but I did it. By the way, it was strange the situation it saved Tanjiro and Nezuko of they being called by the slayers demons society's, now I'am wondering why it's supposed that Giyuu is the mostly hated between the pillars but I really wanna believe that is because of he is too strong or something like that. It is his personality. You can see that he is rather unfriendly and he didn't even remember Tanjiro, only realized it is him after seeing demon Nezuko. |
-¡Give yourself to me! |
| Nezukoooooooooo <3. I also like Shinobu. Her voice is music to my ears. |

| Tomioka's reactions xD Btw, Rui, if Muzan's mouth is moving he's lying... probably. The Hashiras and organization seem to be overreacting big time. Nezuko hasn't killed anyone and she runs away from humans. Then again it's not like Tanjiro had much time to talk to them since he's just gotten orders from crows. Played for the drama and I'm along for the ride. :p |
| It's really hard to hate the demons. Even though they're evil you can't help but sympathize with them in the end. Well yeah, Muzan is the who should be hated, not the others. |
 |
| Smol Nezuko sums this episode. |
| "The future is always blank. Only your willpower can leave footsteps there." "Ruling over death means ruling over life. Death is the climax of life. To have the best death, you must honor life." |
| Rui's end was quite emotional. I've heard a lot about Kanao and am already liking her. The supporting cast in this show is great. Hopefully we got to see them a lot. |
 |
| Boy, what a hamfisted backstory it was. I felt sorry for parents but Rui was a piece of shit through and through. Not every has to have tragic story from its human past, some can be just evil. No need to force cringe like that. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| i feel empathy for rui and his weak body, but other than that, everything i just can't feel empathy for him. he still killed and is a horrible person. |
| Nezuko running is pretty cute indeed. Tomioka Giyuu's expressions continue to be awesome  |
| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| Small Nezuko is so little and cute.And the sounds she's making are cute :( .Oh and btw,yea "wake up Tanjiro,the best swordmans are in fron of you". Also I kinda hate Shinobu now. |
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones! |
| Wow that ending, we're finally gonna meet all the elites |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| small Nezuko is so KAWAII!!!! |
 |
| if i were him it that type of world i would have said to both ladies if u kill her u make me ur enternal enemy and i won't rest until i have ur head |
| Rui's backstory was sad as hell. I really liked the scene where he reunites with his parents and cries in their arms. |
| The Hashira's look cool! Defo a big fan of Tapioca so she's wrong when she says no one likes him, glad he defended Tanjiro and Nezuko. Feel bad for Inosuke recognising his own weakness, hopefully him and Tanjiro and train and get stronger together. |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| What an depressing and sad backstory of Rui. It's so nice how they went even more in detail what happened to him and how he became a demon. Ruis mom telling him that she's sry for not being able to give him a stronger body, damn that got me :( Tanjirou has such a strong empathy even for demons, because he knows everyone of them was at some point human. I'm just glad Rui had his moment with his parents at the end and can hopefully rest in piece. Giyuu is awesome. He knows it's against the codex to defend a demon or prevent another demon slayer from killing it. But despite all of this he still protected Nezuko. The interaction of him and Shinobu was hilarious. They're both very calm and collected people at least what we saw so far but especially Shinobu got a little bit pissed, especially when Giyuu had her in a choke. :D Another demon slayer appeared a tried to kill Nezuko. This girl looks like she's related to Shinobu in some way, but I guess this will get explained? Anyways her kick broke Tanjirous jaw, ouch. Nezuko running away in her chibi form was also very entertaining and funny to see. It's also good to see Inosuke is fine even if he recognized how weak he was in this fight. Oh boy shit is about to get real. They're in the headquarter and Tanjirou is surrounded by pillars. Can't wait to hear what will happen to him and Nezuko. |
 |
| Finally Kanao showed up! Ive been waitin for her Shinonu looks prettier when shes angry lol |
| B O C C H I S W E E P |
| Glad to finally see the Hashiras |
| I found it funny between the battle of Giyu and Shinobu. Yeah, besiding how scary the behaviour of Shinobu, she pretty sure had a hilarious moment. I fucking love it, good job bring her voices Shiori! In another part, Tanjirou unconcious. Nezuko lost too. Its time for the judgement meeting! Tanjirou and Nezuko relationship has been found out. Why pick it so long? Yeah, the arc itself was so fuckin long too, why i doubt it by now? Fucking hilarious episode. Just let it be, begone, and progress some next episode. |
