| Another that proves how dangerous and insane Gyutaro is. It was very exciting to see Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke fight at once. Hell of an action packed episode. It felt like watching a movie than the standard episode on TV. |
 |
| Man, Uzui and his wives sure are cute together. They shared some beautiful moments, and I can tell they care so much for each other. It was also cool seeing Tanjirou mixing his breathing styles; that’s how all the other breaths came to life. Some needed info for sure. And thank god he managed to sabe Hinatsuru. Inosuke is also indeed right, Zenitsu sounds so badass. Inosuke sure has got a lot to give this season. Not to mention the teamwork they pulled off, damn! So cool to see them all using their breathes at once. Another beautifully animated episode! That cliffhanger omg! They did us dirty.  |

| Woah... that was another intense episode. The flashback to Tengen and his wives visiting the grave was cool to me. The food also looked good. Things are getting worse for our boys. I was scared for Hina there for a second but Tanjiro is getting stronger. Gyutaro is too freaking strong and we have no choice but to take Daki's head off while Uzui fights Gyu. But when everything looked like, it was working in our favor, things took a turn of events. I really hope the best boy is alright. Only two more episodes left in this arc. I'm interested to see how will things wrap up. |

| That was probably the worst paced episode of the season, only did 2 light chapters in the entire episode and filled the rest of the time with an original flashback and generally going slow af, standing still and so on. Also means it'll end on 97 at this point, Meh, 3/5. Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

| I believe the extra flashback with Tengen and his wives at the grave was an anime-original addition, but I liked it since it helped flesh out and establish their relationship a little more. However, I think because of that this episode adapted a little less than I was expecting. Still, it was a great episode as usual. Seeing the main trio fighting together was a nice treat, especially the part with Tanjiro and Zenitsu synchronizing their breathing to defend Inosuke. Things are still pretty bad though, with Tengen down and Inosuke getting stabbed by Gyutaro. Can't wait for these last couple episodes. I wanna hold out hope that will still be in this season but the pacing has me questioning that now :( |

| Gyutaro isn’t flinching, no matter who or what kind of attacks he’s up against. Feel like he already took Uzui out and now he’s back again. But before that watching the trio coordinating against Daki was the actual best part. Again ending it on a cliffhanger, the fight's really close to its conclusion now. |

| 2.5 chapters with some anime original scene. Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

This episode made it quite clear that They are following the way the LNs were adapted. That's a shame tbh, that would have been a great way to end the season and build hype for the next season, along with being a nasty cliffhanger for anime-only people. |

| Those anime original scenes felt a bit out of place to me. And Just like Ep8, this episode has an okay first half but good second half, it is a bit inferior compared to EP8 imo aside from that extreme cliffhanger, it's a step down... Mod Edit: Added spoiler tags; please hide plot details. |

 They completely massacred this scene |
| it doesn't have as much detail but the anime version is not that bad. |
|
| Another episode is out. The pacing was a bit off. Today's episode looked pretty grim, especially towards the end. thebrentinator24 said: I wanna hold out hope that will still be in this season but the pacing has me questioning that now :( I really hope that doesn't happen. If it happens, then the UM reveals in the final season will seem too sudden. Or they might include it in the next arc's starting episode. |

| Pretty much similar thoughts to the last episode except the pacing was even slower and dragged out. At least it still got that movie presence to it somewhat with the action again. |
| Absolutely epic episode to be honest, well of course Uzui's wives and deceased family are precious to him but these flashbacks were cute, and the whole fight was impressive especially Inosuke Zenitsu and Tanjirou fighting together and Inosuke beheading Daki was incredible xD though the brother attacked him back after defeating Uzui and now seems like they're all in a VERY bad situation :S especially Uzui and Inosuke I hope they aren't dead |
 |
| The anime-original content flashback of Uzui honoring his family grave with his 3 wives is a nice sight to see, though they already knew what they're getting into with the Entertainment Distict with that much risk involved with their lives on the line. Tanjiro is clearly at his limit of using both his Water Breathing and the Dance of the Fire God techniques while Uzui tries to gain an edge over Gyutaro, while Inosuke and Zenitsu are measuring their powers against Daki. Both precarious situations forcing them to change their strategy, to Uzui facing Gyutaro alone while the 3 underlings face Daki. Clearly, Uzui alone lost against Gyutaro, and all the Demon Slayers are at their wit's end. Will this be the last of them? |
 |
| I feel like they didnt do justice to Tanjirou combining the fire and water breathing move and the trio last spurt attack but nonetheless still a great episode. I dont really mind UFO adding some anime OG shiz to give Uzui's wives some backstories and for us to get attached to them but heh, was hoping we get to see THAT scene but with only 2 eps left, yep, aint happening. Guess in a way this was UFO taking a break in some way with how they pulled of ep 6 and 8. |
  |
| Another great episode. I hope Uzui and the others are going to be alright. Hopefully, they can pull something off. |
| what a great episode... damn that plot twist and cliff hanger gonna kill us waiting for 7 days |
| Very cool episode, that end, can't wait to see the next one! |

| Another great episode. Cant wait to see what happens to Uzui and how Tanjiro recovers. Really annoyed me how Tanjiro could not use his flame breathing, would’ve been sick to see him full power again, and we say this every week but… next episode ‘Never give up!’ Is going to be so Hype!!! |
| Man this has been a wild ride so far. Another amazing episode by Ufotable. This looks better than most movies out there. |
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.  |
| they added fillers but the fight is still intense, the heroes are losing badly now what since Tengen loses one of his arm now |
| This was a freaking crazy episode. However it does not go the way we want it too. Fighting an Upper Moon is no damn joke. Like dang dude. Wow. Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Tanjiro worked together to fight Daki, and managed to cut her head. As for Gyuutarou. That demon is not even close to being tired or even cornered, he defeated Uzui and cut off his arm. Then Gyutarou went after Innouske and stabbed him in the back. Like what the hell?! Gosh dang dude… |
| Although the last episode had better animation, this episode was FAR MORE epic and more chilling. I couldn't stop trembling even though I already know what will happen. Ufotable really knows how create the best atmosphere. |
 I wasted all my time in rewatching to the point of my rewatch total is higher than my overall anime total lmao |
| Another great episode . Ahhhh..... These cliffhanger's :-| |
"We are all like fireworks: we climb, we shine and always go our separate ways and become further apart. But even when that time comes, let's not disappear like a firework and continue to shine.. forever ." |
| garbage pacing, garbage animation, garbage cgi, garbage special effects. |

So I'm fine with the ep being slow to setup the next one tbh. |
| Bruh that's where the end it? Okay show you finally got me with a cliffhanger. Good job. Also "Reeee look at me. I'm a manga reader. They're not going to end it at the part I think is the coolest" smh. |
| I'm still amazed that Tanjiro is still able to fight. He pushed way above his limits. Not to mention that deep wound. |

| god damn , this is so epic and masterpiece battle !! |
| The soundtrack for this episode was unbelievable. They were waving those Death Flags for Hinatsuru a lot...but it's Inosuke who took the heaviest of Damages. Damn he might be a Pig but he was the GOAT for a majority of this episode. What a damn cliffhanger...god damn. |

| Those moments with Tengen and his wives; was that a death flag? Should have seen it coming. Anyways, liked this episode even more than the last one, especially our trio dodging those belts together. Inosuke truly shined this episode; glad they gave him the spotlight as well. But that stab in the chest tho; LEFT side, btw. Things seem to have gone to hell for our gang with Tengen down. NOW, I am truly looking forward to the next episode. Flashy episode with a bit of a bleak end - 5/5 |

| Another beautifully animated episode from Ufotable. I have no idea who was responsible for the storyboarding this episode, but it wasn't great. The episode felt poorly paced with some irrelevant flashbacks punctuating what was meant to be an intense battle coming to a head. One of Uzui's wives had a death flag all over her in the two flashbacks that were shown mid-battle, only for her to survive. You're setting up these side-characters and giving them a backstory for some sort of emotional payoff but because she survived, they felt a bit pointless. All it ultimately did was get Uzui a little angry and desperate. I have absolutely no doubt Inosuke isn't dead, and given some of the illogical things that have been happening this season, it'll be another illogical explanation as to why he survived. P.S For people that don't know, the last episode is a double-length episode. |
