| Watching Kimetsu no Yaiba is similar to watching a magician show, you never know what the magician is going to pull, he magically tricks you with something that you didn't even know existed in the first place. So, Daki killed 7 hashiras, but she's having a hard time dealing with some newbies, nice power level. I know it's never going to happen, but they could kill Inosuke and Zenitsu. Tanjirou alone + hashiras would be better for the show. I hope they kill this demon as soon as possible, he's another annoying character in Kimetsu no Yaiba's cast. |

| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| Meh episode. Slow slow slow. 7/10 |
"Without commitment, we will never start. Without dicipline and consistency, we will never finish." |
| Mind blown by the animation. Ufotable goat This ep was sakuga fest, sakuga after sakuga. Really loved this ep. One of my fav ep of kny. |
 |
| This was an amazing episode, the animation and voice-acting were fabulous! |
| Oh Lord! The animation like always is top tier heheh. My boys are back! Inosukeeee, Zenitsuuu and Tanjiro who i care deeply of. Hinatsuru was something i didn't expect tbh but wow. Speechless. SLAY GURL :* The cliffhanger literally destroyed me but can't wait for the next episode. |
| This episode was insane. Dang man. We get to know much about Uzui, the guy is not talented himself which he even admits. Even the two Hashira shown says those guys have talent which takes them possibly two months or even less to reach the level of Hashira. Uzui Shinobi line was sad. Out of all the siblings that survived he and his brother two years younger survived. Uzui wanted to be different, and became different. Even though Daki did only half the kill of Hashira than her Brother Gyutarou which his Hashira kill is 15. So much action packed happened in this episode. And the only way how to kill them both is beheading them simultaneously which is difficult enough. Makes me question why they are not any higher than the other Upper Rank demons. Because the others have one head, while this one has two. One of Uzui's wives shows up to help and managed to halt a bit of Gyutarou's regeneration thanks to the poisoned Kunai's of hers. Tanjiro going in for the kill, but I highly doubt it is that easy. |
| Really enjoyed the last 5-6 minutes of this episode. Storyboarding and animation were superb from Ufotable. The flashbacks were predictable as always with Demon Slayer. These battles should be full of tension and I'm not quite feeling a sense of dread or fear. Tonally, it just seems a bit off. It's still lacking something from some of the highs of S1, and I can't quite put my finger on it. |
| Masayuki kunihiro animated the the last part tengen vs gyuutaro close combat, it’s easy to say it’s him if u remember akaza vs rengoku , black saber vs medusa ( rider ) close combat . Choreography was a massive blast and one of the best choreography in this season . They added some nice original cuts for Zenitsu using thunder clap . The storyboard was also amazing. Can’t wait next week cause it’s gonna be level up of this episode sakuga. |
 |
| KnY isn't carried by the animation .... yeah yeah. This studio does 80% of the work here. If someone thinks otherwise, why 90% of comments here are praise for animation? I like this anime, but let's face it, Ufotable is saving this series Ep was good but pacing was weird. I forgot that Uzui has such a short flashback ... Bravo for him for a great fight despite poisoning with deadly poison |
| Ufotable really pulled it off in a flamboyant way. The animation is so fucking good. It actually surpassed the season 1 animation by a mile. After having read this arc, I was really impatient about the animation quality. But never would I have thought they would animate this good. LIKE WHAT?! 5 minutes of sakuga with beautiful CG and Yuki Kajiura's music on top. Sasuga Ufotable! The direction was on spot and the parallel between Uzui and Rengoku was cherry on top. Zenitsu taking the initiative to attack Daki was so hype. Also, Ufotable really improved on their SFX compared to Fate, because the SFX for Thunder breathing was really good. 5/5 episode. Definitely gonna re-watch the fight again. |
| Lol I want a proper episode with no annoying flashback and unnecessary dragged segments. I know the second half was good but these slow moments are annoying due to its repetitiveness |

| Must say this was the first episode this season I really did not like. Sound design and pacing was off and not up to KnY standards imo. Also a lot of idle talk used to stretch the episode adding absolutely nothing. At least the stage is set for next week. |

| This show is so stunning and beautiful, the episodes are way too short >.<, it is really nice to see the weight that losing Rengoku had on everyone, the main trio are now the Tsuguko of 3 pillars haha. |
| Inosuke and Zenitsu really waited Gonpachiro run 1(?) block to get Nezuko box and come back, so they could present themselves a trio? |
 |
| That camera was having fun showing quite a bit of Hinatsuru haha. Zenitsu is so cool when he's asleep, at this point it's no joke to wish he would stay asleep forever lol. That post-credits scene :'( |
| The animation was insanely good this episode, hope we keep getting episodes like this. Also, Zenitsu was such a badass going at Daki like that ( I don't the little bubble coming from his nose, kinda diminishes the badassery from that scene) I feel bad for Daki, though she's super cute when she's frustrated like that. 10/5 |

| First half was a lot of standing around and talking but I will say the action sequences in the later half were very impressive |
| Going from other seasonal anime to this is like night and day as far as animation/sakuga goes. Ufotable hard carrying even tho Gotouge’s story is trying its hardest to bring down the hype with flashbacks and plot conveniences. |
 |
| Fucckkcckkkkkkkkkkkkk, i think I am crying during this AMAZING FIGHT. This shiiiit is toooo gooooood. |
| Another great episode with masterful sequences. As always Masayuki Kunihiro's sequence was amazing, also really like Kazuhiro Miwa's animation style, glad to see he's back. The storyboard and the usage of dynamic camera angles were probably the best so far in this season. Only negative aspect I can think of is that the CGI FX were a little too much sometimes. Looking forward to next week. |

| Amazing Fight, Sakuga fest!! Pure excitement... Ufotable really just keep leveling up. Unlimited Budget Work. Demon Slayer with the CLiffhanger as well, i see double Nasty Cliffhanger on Sunday... god damn. |
 |
| Man that first part felt so slow, but after everyone gathered, the episode took off and it flew by. Incredible fight again and the cliffhanger is insane, as to be expected. Zenitsu in complete silence starting the attack on Daki, separating her from Gyutaro, was pretty damn epic. Looked so good. Uzui vs Gyutaro was also pretty damn good. Loved it. |
 |
| That fight scene animation is so smooth. Such an eye candy show. |
| animation and fight was GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDdd i cant believe some st.ped people compare AOT with this:) |
 That post-ed featuring Rengoku too ๐ฅ |
 |
Hinatsuru ass huh ;) |
| the animation was at its best today this can literally compete with fate for once |
| Uhhh holy shit that cliffy was just perfect, I started laughing cause I can't believe i'm being cucked. But holy shit this was some movie quality shit. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Man, they should've used Nezuko to fight off those 2 upper 6 demons..... |
| who the hell is in charge of subs??? what kind of garbage was this?? ive never watched an anime that had so much back and forth with the subs at the top and bottom of the screen. PICK THE TOP OR BOTTOM AND STICK WITH IT. jesus christ on a boat. theres NO REASON that there should be this much back and forth. it was getting so aggravating i couldn't even concentrate on the episode. subs don't need to be at the top of the screen unless there's some text at the bottom of the screen. the lettering is white with a black border - they show up fine on teeth & they aren't blocking anything. piss off with this garbage. |

| I hate shonen, but I’m not a “hater” these last few Kimetsu episodes have been peak. Ufotable carrying hard |
 |
| Uzui vs the Moon was amazing! |
 |
| The last 8 minutes of DS were just pure movie quality. The camera movement, choreography and the SFX were legit god-like. My mouth was widely open by it. I'm surely going to rewatch it because it was so fast that I couldn't focus on everything. 10/10 |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| Damn, the animation was Fate level in this episode, Ufotable doesn't know how to miss. Other than the brilliant fight sequences the rest was quite average or slightly above at best. Overall it was pretty entertaining. |
 |
| Wow what an episode. Animation is on point and when Zenitsu launched his attack, that scene was epic. |
TheZippotm said: plus, carrying the title of hashira does not guarantee that Tengen is equal amongst his peers. In other words, Daki might have killed 7 of the weaker hashira, or the hashira in the generation she killed could have just all been weaker. Phosphophyllita said: Watching Kimetsu no Yaiba is similar to watching a magician show, you never know what the magician is going to pull, he magically tricks you with something that you didn't even know existed in the first place. So, Daki killed 7 hashiras, but she's having a hard time dealing with some newbies, nice power level. I know it's never going to happen, but they could kill Inosuke and Zenitsu. Tanjirou alone + hashiras would be better for the show. I hope they kill this demon as soon as possible, he's another annoying character in Kimetsu no Yaiba's cast. Using the title hashira as an indication for power level is not very wise. Daki has killed 7 of them, yet she was beheaded 2 times effortlessly by Tengen. You are comparing the "newbies" to hashiras from the past and you don't even know how Daki defeated them. for example, While the hashira are the strongest of all the demon slayers, their strength varies within the title |
| Damn. This season every episode is like Ep 19 from previous season. How tf is Ufotable pulling this every week? |
 |
| Honestly awe-inspiring how Ufotable is able to consistently produce this much quality. |
