| i dont think either of these 2 demons is making for an interesting enemy, even their fights arent impressive |
 |
| Guessing that Upper 4 is giving off heavy symbolism. When around someone more powerful, Fear is the greatest emotion, when fighting you make your Fear small, and if you let it...Hatred can consume everything else about you. Glad the Tanjiro didn't take too long to call it out on it's hypocrisy. Small and Weak?! Even a Nezuko enhanced sword had trouble cutting through, and you're the 5th most powerful demon out there. You are FAR from being small and weak. On another note. Damn, Haganezuka is hot! xD |
 |
| This was more of a low episode, the real demon has finally shown and Muichiro is free from that water prison, not much happened but I imagine more of a calm before the storm. |
| Definitely a weaker season if i may say, but now i feel it's gonna get better with each episode. |
| GENYA WAS FULL OF HOLES FROM EP 6 BUT HE WAS ALR AND GOT HIS HOLES FILLED AGAIN ON EP 7? "i can't regenerate my head" he said it, implying he can do it for his body instead of his head HE GOT RAPID REGENERATION like demons? WTH (i was so confused at first) anyway mid episode guess its the weak arc hanezuka so damn hot why don't they the swordsmiths use a frickin katana instead of a kitchen knife lol AND the CGI FISH SUCKS they are matching the vase guy's GROSSNESS |
deep fried lettuce   ^i snitched this from a dude's forum signature^  |
| I sort of wish that this season was just focused on one of the upper moon demons, going back and forth between the two is a little disjointed especially since the emotion one has like six versions of himself as it is. Anyway, I'm still really enjoying this season but not as much as the Entertainment District Arc. |

| On this episode of Demon Staring, upper moon 5 had the chance to kill a normal human forging a sword that will be the deus ex machina of the season but got so mad he wasn't noticed that he totally forgot to land a fatal blow. On the other side of the battle, upper moon 4 appeared on what seems to be his real form, he's so terrifying he doesn't need to fight, he just needs to stare at Tanjiro and Genya as they shit their pants to death. But my favorite part of the episode was the innovation where TanJesus appears to our useless hashira and says "ganbateee Hashira-saaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!". Not always we need a flashback where the oni slaughter your family to give strength to carry on. |
| Imagine how boring this world would be without Japan - a comment at youtube |
| That pacing is atrocious Another snoozer, unsurprisingly  |

| Another demon form appear and his theme song are amazing good. Even his voice is sound good. Muichiro actually can slash that water after all ... Maybe he didn't use his full strength at first.. Mitsuri really got a little screen time... Guess she will appear helping Tanjiro since the OP song always giving a little spoiler. Tanjiro swordsmith face finally revealed... His tough muscle body with that mask are always looking funny for me especially when he's always angry and chasing others. |
 |
| this anime has no soul, unlike the manga, plus they need to stop slowing down fast paced series. |
| Hagenezuka face reveal! If that kid is really dead I'm very sad, but Tanjiro's words were really true for Tokito since he saved him first |
| Tanjirou argument toward the 4th upper demon is pretty weak tbh. A person is evil or not is base on perspective/ side you on. To demons, human are literally food source and they have to eat it to survive. So Tanjirou argue that eating human = evil, however we ate trillions of animals without hesitation, are we evil? It's like saying animals are evil when they eat a human, that's a very weak argument. It's basically just food chain. From Tanjirou's argument I only feel the pride of humanity instead of a sound argument cuz human think themselves as special/ superior over other species. Contrary, the Upper 4 actually has a better argument. For those that hurt his family and those that bully the weak (the small old demon), it is evil in his perspective. He doesn't judge the evil/ good base on species difference, but base on his own moral justice standard in the perspective of demons. |

| Beginning for Tanjirou's fight was good otherwise that's kind of a slow episode since I don't care much about the side things, at least Muichirou is released finally |

If you think you have patience, just let the season finish first and then binge it. Then you will feel the real HYPE. |
| Spent a lot of time on staredown/downtime and talk-no-justu, just get on with in. |
| Boring episode once again, would have dropped already if i haven't watched the prior seasons... |
| Yet another version of Mr. Demon appears and nobody can move. Wait nvm, Tanjiro is able to move again because yes. Hashira-kun can't pierce Bubble-kun. Wait nvm, he was just waiting for that boy to die. Too much cheesy stuff, not enough quality storytelling. |

| Its slightly now starting to feel like they are fighting the upper 6 or whatever but still they are being allow too much mercy. |
 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. |
| And finally what we've been waiting for, getting to see this form of Upper 4. |

Shindobaddo1605 said: Yeah that's why I dont think Upper 4 is "evil" like Tanjirou claimed.Ventus_S said: The only thing I would argue is that not every human demons kill, they eat. Especially the upper moons as sometimes they kill for fun or torture. An example being Gyokko with those "sculptures" he made out of the swordsmiths.Tanjirou argument toward the 4th upper demon is pretty weak tbh. A person is evil or not is base on perspective/ side you on. To demons, human are literally food source and they have to eat it to survive.

He doesn't judge the evil/ good base on species difference, but base on his own moral justice standard in the perspective of demons. Upper 2, Upper 5 you can argue about it, but upper 3/ 4 dont seem that evil to me in demon's perspective. Tanjirou sympathizes with a lot of demons despite most of them ate human b4 and he doesn't just outright call them evil, so it's strange he got this mad about Upper 4 calling them evil. In fact to Demons, demon slayer corps are the evil guy cuz they're killing them too. Also if his sister is not this special and end up need to eat human to survive, I bet he'd find excuse too to forgive his sister and not calling her evil, but instead a victim. |
| Tanjiro trying to cut down the actual tiny demon that is the Upper Rank 4 Hantengu, but miscalculated his timing to only encounter with another of his Emotion culmination: the Anger Demon Zohakuten, absorbing Sekido, Karaku and Aizetsu. The stronghold of the young boy shaking both Tenjiro and Genya to their knees, and the vow to exterminate is stronger than ever. Tokito, still stuck with Upper Rank 5 Gyokko, tries to break out of his Blood Demon Art but to no success, hoping that help would arrive on the way. Gyokko going to investigate the shack where Tokito stood still, and indeed it's the village chief Haganezuka's work hut that he's enamored with perfecting his sword enough to ignore Gyokko's attention, because this sword is meant for Tokito. Hyottoko trying to save him, and despite being countered by the miniature fish monster, he helps break Tokito out of the shell. Still at a slow progress... |
 |
| I was wondering how Hantengu would end up becoming an actual hydra-like monster as the OP showed, looks like it’s actually an attack by a fused version of the emotion demons that became hatred, and damn he looks kinda sick, this guy has a truly threatening look. And it’s interesting he sees Tanjiro and Genya as villains, but it’s as Tanjiro said that his logic is severely flawed so on the ass beating list he goes lol, but I’m really looking forward to how this fight progresses from here. And Tokito was finally freed from his water captivity thanks to Kotetsu and Tokito’s memory of Tanjiro and I guess also his dad lol, poor Kotetsu took a bad hit but our boy is finally free. And I’m ngl I thought it was pretty funny that Gyokko was getting mad at Haganezuka for having the most extreme concentration on the planet lol, looks like one of Gyokko’s glaring weaknesses is his ego as an artist and I’m sure it will be detrimental to his defeat. |
| Daddy Haganezuka~ 3,5/5 episode. First 10 minutes or so were really good in terms of action and OST, not to mention Hate Demon's chilling introduction, but things sure started to drag the moment he started talking. Also can't help but think Muichirou spent three entire episodes... drowning. |
| the CG was passable, i don't hate it but i thought the CG fish which was actually overhated a few weeks ago looked better ngl. the mist hashira scenes felt like it dragged on too long but he's finally out. that fused demon reminds me of enel from one piece because of that huge floating ring thing behind him. highlight was definitely haganezuka, insaneee focus. but please just kill that jar demon with multiple baby hands already, i dislike listening to him very much. |
 |
| The pacing is awful. Anyway, Muichirou is finally out of that water cage. And, about the new Hatred Demon. I am guessing we will get "Love" Hashira vs "Hatred" Demon. |
