Swole Haganezuka casually coming out of the woods is hilarious.

The upper moon fights are finally starting with Hantengu. It was pretty creepy how Hantengu just decided to crawl on in without warning. Tanjiro having to face another upper moon with multiple bodies.

Genya pulling up with the 2nd Amendment breathing



Can't wait for Mitsuri to show up and start fighting.
"2nd Amendment breathing" is hilarious! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

I thought the fish demon looked pretty good lol, surely people are just memeing at this point... Nice concept with the older looking demon, splitting into younger forms. Comedy was more jarring than usual though lol

BRUH THE NAMES ARE OVERWHELMING ME! I CAN'T REMEMBER SO MANY NAMES!

I was totally ready for a chill episode. I mostly gave a light smile to the sometimes funny moments and Tanjiro and mask kid's antics got a few chuckles from me. But my God, shit the fan so quickly and so abruptly. I can't wait for the next episode.

Time for an upper moon four and five fight soon.
This episode is setting up for those fights nicely.
When shit hits the fan, it really does hit the fan. Look at how upper moon four used his fan to blow away the mist hashira. He went flying out the wazoo.

thank god for nezuko transforming because i was starting to lose my mind.
top tier animation as usual but bollywood over-the-top effects just like episode 1.

Damn, even Ufotable's "bad" CG looks acceptable.

Interesting how there seems to be more comedy this season and the main comic relief character isn't even around.

Cool episode. The idea of a Demon being able to multiply itself based on emotions sounds sick af. Wonder how they will deal with him.

Also Genya about to develop that Gunpowder Breathing.

Muichiro is decidedly extremely damn boring. There was a sense of power to both Rengoku and Tengen, hell even Shinobu in a different sense, and certainly Giyuu, that just hasnt been replicated here. It feels like UFOTABLE have just assumed the audience knows what's up with an upper-rank demon and aren't giving it the due wonder that something so strong deserves. The POWER we used to see in every strike of a Hashira just isn't present at the moment, and along with the VA's quite frankly atrociously mundane voice acting, Muichiro is thoroughly unentertaining.

And yes yes I know the manga I know what kind of character Muichiro is, before someone tries and says "Oh you don't understand he's supposed to sound like that". It's still bad voice acting—you can get the same effect of sounding zoned out or disinterested without bad voice acting.

Anyway, I know this is the weakest DS arc anyway, but here's hoping UFOTABLE do what they're good for and make the fights amazing in the coming episodes.

It felt really short? idk what was going on tbh but it was a good episode ig. I liked how the demon wasnt just one, but multiple and how everytime he was split the demon represented one of the emotions.

Kotetsu and Tanjiro fighting against Haganezuka over the sword is funny. Tanjiro's scene with Genya too lol. Nezuko is too cute omg. ;u;

Also Tokito is such a babie. ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป Tanjiro's words probably reminded him of someone from a distant past that's why he reacted like that. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Tokito in action in anime is so cool. ๐Ÿ˜ค

I was getting ready to comment here about how good the cgi was on that fish, but then I see "EW CGI FISH"....??? wtf?? I thought it was some nice ass cgi

We get more unfunny comedy, but that last for less than half the episode, until we get to the demon-slaying part of demon slayer. This seems to have picked up faster than season 2 did, it's just the 3rd episode and we're already facing down the upper moon 4.

Speaking of, I was thinking: "what are they gonna do with this Hatengu guy? How's he an upper moon being the scaredy cat that he is? Surely he's powerful but it's gonna look dumb with him scared all the time..." and then he splits into 4 and takes on younger, much more intimidating forms of himself. Which begs the question, IS he JUST 4 in 1? Or will he continue to multiply as the continuing cutting off his heads (so far it doesn't seem like they get weaker just because of that)? Also I like how this guy is gonna be a bit of a puzzle, with Tanjiro trying to find out what the key is to kill Hatengu, because obviously the typical cutting off of heads isn't gonna work this time around, even doing it simultaneously, which worked with Gyuutaro. 

Anyway, I'm glad that the downtime didn't last for too long, and that we're back in action.

Still a cringe episode. The 1st part where Tanjiro & Kotetsu dances is super cringe on MHA level. Even Nezuko being cute is a bit too over for me. I rlly miss the 1st 2 seasons where the comedy isn't cringe(if u minus zenitsu but he's still funny tho) & when Tanjiro isn't mentally unstable

This show really can't do comedy. Not only it's awfully unfunny, the placement of supposedly comedic moments gives you a mental whiplash. It's even worse when after all that faffing around they suddenly transition to absolutely hopeless fight with an upper rank. At least in previous fights there was, albeit slim, a chance to win. Here, the enemy is so over the top you already know winning will require a massive asspull. Go on, tell me the broken puppet will play a major role...

It started slow and funny, then it got epic when Tokito started attacking the demon. I love this episode because the reveal of Sekido and Karaku who are voiced by Umehara Yuichiro and Ishikawa Kaito! Ume-chan is my fav VA and Ishikai is my sister's, what a pleasant power duo we've got here!

maybe I just got shit humor because I didn’t really mind the jokes in this episode in comparison to everyone complaining about it on this forum, however I really like the addition of Genya with his double-barreled shotgun since it’s a nice change of pace to see a demon get attacked by something other than a katana

If there was one thing that stood out for me more than anything else in this episode, it would be...



Nezuko with braided hair! She looks so damn cute with braided hair!! X3

Anyways, the episode itself got into gear pretty quickly. The humour was better than the previous episode, mostly thanks to the bulky Haganezuka having his moment in a comedic skit with Tanjiro and Kotetsu, but the upper rank demons have finally made their move. Hantengu splitting off into multiple different bodies with different personalities was pretty interesting and gave Tanjiro and Genya, even with his impressive shotgun, a tough time.

Tokito was also caught off-guard and was making his way back, but thanks to Tanjiro's kind words during their earlier conversation, he made an effort to save Kotetsu from an ugly fish monster. The fish was in CG, but the quality itself was pretty good. Not the best at ufotable can do, but that level of higher quality isn't needed for a minor enemy. It won't impress those who love to jump on the CGI hate bandwagon, but their complaints are mostly irrelevant, at least to myself, anyways.

I knew as soon as he mentioned the 3 days period for the sword restoration that the devils gonna be attacking. And I think that it's a good thing since the fights are why I am watching this anyway. I am just hoping that it's not gonna be as prolonged as in the previous season. Well, we shall see...

Makes me wonder why they hide the knowledge. I guess a limited and vulnerable resource must be needed for it to make sense.
Hmm idk if I recall correctly but wasn't there some sort of rare stone/meteorite mentioned in the first season? Not that it would make that much of a difference, but I would say that they hide them for the very reason they are being attacked - they are making weapons against demons so it makes sense that demons would target them and thus they have to hide them.
