| Some time has passed now since the season has finished. I did re-watch the season recently. Initially I thought the season was pretty bad, but now that I re-watched it... my opinion remains the same. This season simply has no flow to it, the pacing was horrible and the fights were a let down. The antagonists were boring and weak, to the point where I never felt any "danger" for the "good" characters. Previous seasons all had memorable episodes / fights. Season 1 had episode 19, the movie had probably one of the best fights and season 2 was good all around. Whereas this season missed all the points. Disclaimer: this is my opinion so take it as it is. |

| Correction to one thing. Uzui was weak af. Which therefore made gyutaro look strong. Gyokko was strong. Muichiro nearly died and was saved by kotetsu. if he wasn’t marked probably would have died as well. I can’t really understand how you even think hantengu is weak. He literally nearly killed tanjiro and mitsuri. Once he let zohakuten out he was literally destroying them without even moving. If zohakuten done a better job at hiding hantengu then he would have won. But whatever it’s your opinion and I respect it. Personally I preferred this season a lot more. Overall the villains and hashira i preferred a lot more. I feel like this season showed you don’t need epic fights for a crazy season. It furthered the story by giving us questions like what is the mark on muichiro and mitsuri? Who is upper moon one? Who is the man in tanjiro’s dream? Of course I know all these questions because I read the manga. The backstory for muichiro was done very well. Overall I believe this season was done much better than season 2. Especially the final episode. But this is just my opinion. Please no hate. |

official_brown said: It was fun. Not as flashy as S2, but I liked the fights as always. I did hear that this was one of the best arcs from manga readers, which is weird because it wasn’t crazy good. But it’s still really enjoyable. I wouldn’t say this is the one of the best arcs but still very good and personally my favourite arc that has been adapted so far. The last 2 arcs of the series would be the best. And I’m almost 100% certain any other manga reader can agree with me on that. |
baymaxemon said: Since the reason tanjirou has joined the ds academy (or whatever you call it) and has already accomplished his main goal, I don't think there's anything interesting left to the story. btw this season was terrible! Tanjiro’s goal hasn’t been accomplished. His goal was to cure his sister and take down muzan. His sister is still a demon she’s just able to walk in the sun. |
| it's the weakest season, yeah |
| Ufotable did a great job animating this rather boring manga arc tbh. This arc and hashira training which is the next arc are the worst IMO but they still produced it really well |
| it had its moments where it was good and some were mid |

Orbakun said: The biggest sin this season committed is completely ruining my immersion by ruining the power scaling. this far in this series the power scaling has been alright, they did a great job in season 1 with tanjiro barley being able to stay alive while fighting the lower rank 5 we get a good sense of the strength of both the demons and the hashira. it also gives us a good idea of how far tangiro has to go. they keep to this scale for the next 2 arcs as we fight stronger and stronger demons. come season 3 tanjiro pretty much single handedly takes down 2 up demons WHILE HE IS STILL RECOVERING FROM THE PREVIOUS ARC!! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK HAPPENED?!??!? HOW DID MANS GO FROM BARELY TAKING DOWN UPER DEMON 6 WITH A HASHIRA PRETTY MUCH CARRYING HIM TO CARRYING HASHIRAS?!??! BRO WHAT?!?!? You forgot the part where Tanjiro learnt Zenitsu's thunder breathing sonic dash thingy like it was nothing just from a 10 seconds flashback. |

| It became more and more painful to watch through this every single week. I don't drop anime because I'm a completionist so I watched every episode until the end, watching the finale while I was at the beach. (If you pull the "oh if u dont like it, why dont u drop it" bullshit on me, I will hunt you down) The finale was okay, the rest was not. |

The way that they presented fight did feel a little underwhelming which made the demons look pale. I guess I can understand that a bit. More so with gyokko’s fight. But I can understand if they had to sacrifice some quality of animation and make it rough in certain areas. Because there gonna have to spend a while on the next upcoming fights. The next arc don’t really have any crazy fights. But it’s the 2 after that which have a ton of insane fights. |
| It didn't feature boar guy or blonde guy so it was automatically better than season 2. Also we actually got 10 minutes worth of plot progression, which is also more than season 2. |
| Yeah, I thought this season was pretty boring. Coming after the Entertainment District Arc made it worse. The first half of the Entertainment District Arc could be considered boring, but the climax makes up for it ten-fold. I started reading the manga during this season, caught up, and finished this arc before the anime ended. I knew everyone was going to be disappointed too. |
| This arc was the worst arc in the manga, so I had fewer expectations to begin with. Ufotable did a great job, but it wasn't enough to make me like this season. |

If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.  |
official_brown said: Oh now I see what you meant. Those people were just hyping up certain moments in this arc. Its because only this arc was airing. I don't think they meant that this is the best arc. They just meant to point out some good upcoming moments of this particular airing arc.FZREMAKE said: This arc is generally considered as the weakest arc in demon slayer by most of its fans.

On social media you have manga fans saying like “anime only’s aren’t ready for this.” And then it’s usually good, but nothing ground breaking. Overall though, it was a good little season. UFOtable did well as always. Generally speaking, this arc is considered as the weakest Kny arc. If you think this was good then the infinity castle arc will be mind blowing. |
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time. |
| I liked it well enough but Tokito and Mitsuri's backstories bored me to tears. |
