| 5 episodes and nothing is happening... |

| Another adorable episode. This time, we could see three training grounds: Love Pillar's, Snake Pillar's and Wind Pillar's. I couldn't wait to see Mitsuri's training animated, haha. It was funny, but too bad it was so short. Iguro's training was... specific. I doubt that Demon Slayers other than Tanjiro learned anything from it. That's what happens when one person is training and others serve as obstacles to avoid during the sparring, huh. Iguro vs. Tanjiro looked really cool. Sanemi was a typical Sanemi. Angry and violent lad. I felt bad for Genya. Same went with Tanjiro getting seriously beaten up. Too bad that that idiot Zenitsu had to ruin everything, but at least Sanemi made him shut his loud trap, lol. At least Zenitsu didn't have a lot of screentime. Next stop: the Rock Pillar's training! It seems that Tanjiro will be training with both Zenitsu and Inosuke. ;) |

Poor Mitsuri... not only she was a side character at best or barely present at worst during the last arc (even though she was so prominent on a poster) but her part was also devoid of screen time the previous two hashira got.
| @Chipp12 Kinda true. While I enjoyed a lot the part dedicated to her training and didn't expect it to last for the whole episode, I thought it'd last a little bit longer. Especially after the previous, Muichiro-centered episode. Oh well, at least it was executed really well and felt entertaining to watch. |
| We’re really speedrunning each Hashira now, Mitsuri’s training went really fast but i guess there’s not a whole lot to show with flexibility, it was quite funny tho when their legs were spread in the way they’re not meant to lol. And then came Obanai who was already in a bad mood due to letters Mitsuri had sent him about her time with Tanjiro, and his training certainly looked rough too, but I’m wondering how this is meant to help the regular demon slayers lol, maybe they trained differently before Obanai got mad at Tanjiro but it’s funny to imagine their training is to just be an obstacle. Tanjiro proved himself eventually tho in that forest battle which was a cool visual for that moment. And then it was time to move on to Sanemi but not before my boy Zenitsu meets Tanjiro for the first time in a while, many find him annoying but I love the screaming lol. And Sanemi’s training looked really rough too, being beaten up until you vomit and pass out with no breaks, that is hell, but Tanjiro and Zenitsu managed to bypass this training since they got banned thanks to their involvement in Sanemi and Genya’s dispute, they were absolutely right to do so tho because Sanemi was unhinged there, Genya gets to live another day thanks to them, hopefully he can prove himself with his American breathing eventually lol. And this takes us to the wind hashira, his training looks pretty metal so I’m looking forward to seeing it. |
| Highlights: Mitsuri Leg Spreader Iguro's love for Mitsuri Iguro's Training - Tanjirou imagining the forest was really well done. Zenitsu Jumpscare Sanemi & Genya Moment >>>>>>>> Namu Amida Butsu |
My Candies:       Bonus:   |
| snake and wind hashira are so weak and pathetic that they hide behind insults. Man, its so transparent they are insecure...how are they even hashiras???? |
 |
| His little brother surpassed him eating demons using guns while big bro is stuck using hands and swords white hair guy is such trash. Stabs innocent girls and tries to rip apart little brother. When fire is cool this guys training does not surprise me still going to be easier than that flexibility training |
  |
| Wow, Mitsuri's training didn't even last two minutes on screen. Well, maybe since it was just about flexibility, it was simpler than the other trainings. The favoritism of the Pillars for Tanjiro ended with the appearance of Iguro and Sanemi. I won't deny it, Iguro's jealousy towards Tanjiro because of his closeness to Mitsuri annoyed me a bit. If he likes her that much, he should confess, haha. From what it looks like, one of the most difficult trainings is coming up. PS: I was surprised to see Inosuke and other demon slayers in Gyoumei's training, which means Sanemi approved them in his training, not even Tanjiro, since they started their training with him. |

Reply to AbyssWacher
For me hands down the best episode of this season for now.
| @AbyssWacher thought it was the worst, made me question why some of these idiots are hashiras when they are so terrible. |
|
| Dear Lord Jesus Christ, what am I watching? At least the snek boy is a fucking cuckold. |
| If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time. Watch more movies, please. Perhaps, this is hell. |
| Previous ones might have been slowpaced, but at least they had a pace. Now we're suddenly speedrunning things? Yeesh. Also- Kanroji commits testicle murder, and THEN they move on to Iguro's BDSM training... pfft. Poor boys. |

| This episode was better than the last, but I still feel like they are rushing this training too much. I heard that it was very short in the manga, so that’s probably why, but it still feels weird since going into this arc, I was expecting a lot of Hashira training focus. However, it seems like it’s just a prelude to something else. (7/10) |
| I actually would have been okay with an episode dedicated to Mitsuri lol she so pretty <3 But this was still the best episode of the season so far, it feels like you're seeing the flow of the training a lot better here like in the manga |
| definitely getting so much better, I can't wait for this training. Also boar head is spotted! |
 |
| welp it's still not looking good brev. the only actual thing about this episode was sanemi wacking tf outta that goof zenitsu. |
 |
| More plot but gotta love seeing more of the hashiras and for manga readers the pacing looks good? Excited to see how far they will take it this season! DS baby, its back! |
| ok this ep was much better, particularly seeing Tanjiro standing up against Sanemi |
 |
| We're moving a little faster now, which is nice. Didn't dwell too long on Kanroji, and I liked Tanjiro's interactions with snake guy and the other guy. Wonder what the earth guy's importance is since he's on the front of the art and such. Idk. Whatever. Still a little bored. Wondering what else is going to happen? This guy's training, bug girl, then the fight with the demon leading into the final arc I guess? |
 |
| Kanroji is excited as ever to see Tanjiro. Damn, she made all the corps members wear pink swimsuits 🤣🤣🤣. Even Tanjiro got scared of Flexibility training 🤣. But that ended rather quick. He moved on to Obanai. And this guy is very possessive of Kanroji, and jealous of Tanjiro. He’s petty, and I still don’t like him. Next comes Shinazugawa. The guy I hate the most. I’m so much like Tanjiro when it comes to not acknowledging him. I like Tanjiro’s face after that. The forced smile remained 🤣🤣🤣. Zenitsu is back, and we get to see the usual loud mouth as ever. Genya punched him while he was saving him 😅. Training with Shinazugawa got suspended, Tanjiro and Zenitsu set off to the next one. Next to Stone Hashira. We also get to see Inosuke. He actually seems to say the same as others, so let’s hope he isn’t making up things. |
 |
| Oh great....Zenitsu is back..... |
 |
| Alot of things happend in this episode. I too thought they will only focus on Mitsuri this episode. But well, we saw three hashiras which is good too. Now finally we gonna see the strongest hashira's training next episode. I read the manga but still wanted to see how they animate it, plus some original scenes too. |
| I need somebody who can love me at my worst No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth 'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst If you stay forever, let me hold your hand I can fill those places in your heart no else can Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim |
| My boy Inosuke finally! |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| What a chaotic episode! But I'm happy that the trio will be finally together |
