Ax_El_Erate said: It really kills my heart seeing Shinobu. And it makes me sad when I remember somethin' beyond. HereticHunter said: He just made his swords useless by shaping them like that. It may look cool but it isn't practical as his swords are now technically useless. It's not about the sword, it is about the wielder on how strong they are, like what Urokodaki said on Episode 2. They are weak on Natagumo Arc, they still lack power that is why it brokes. Even if it is a knife, if the wielder is strong enough -- it will cut anything. That's all, have a nice day. Everything said by Urokodaki goes to shit when you consider that Shinobu broke this rule as she uses poison because her sword can't behead. Writer drive itself into a corner here. Dab1za9 said: HereticHunter said: I know that and it bothered me back then, his sword maker had the right to be mad at him. Demons Slayer's weapons are supposed to be made to slash swiftly and behead demons. His fighting style may be that of tear and shred, but it didn't work before at the spider's arc, why would it work now? Its just unpractical, specially considering demon's regeneration. The fact that he had to cut a demon arm by hitting it repeatedly proves how useless they are. Tanjiro wasn't able to cut the demon arm using his normal sword too so it doesn't prove anything. He was stronger than them. That's just bad power balance common in many battle shounen. Mod edit: fixed double post |

| Aww man! If only they announced another cour. Next arc is a really good one. Wanted to see it get adapted soon )-: |
 |
| I'm scared for whats about to come tbh _(:°ะทใ∠)_ |
| Poor Kanao;( Sad background of course my ship is here;). Shinobu being Shinobu(manipulate/motivate) of course this episode which always makes me smile. Always my favorite girl. Very different from her past self. I didn't laugh much at the comedy in this at the beginning of this series(because the Zenitsu scenes aren't hilarious to me) but I remember laughing at the Haganezuka scene and its even funnier animated. The Inosuke scene too where he's chipping his sword.lol |
 |
| Kanao is so interesting!! Tajiro and her would be a very cute couple <3 Very fun episode |

Shinobu uses poison because she lacks the physical strength to behead demons. She even says this herself. As a result of her physical limitations, she uses a sword designed for poison use, because that’s the only way she can really be an effective combatant. |
| I'm very happy that this anime is getting the Attention it deserves, and will likely have another season because of it. Wholesome anime where everyone loves it. |

That doesn't change the fact that it breaks the rule that the writer established early in the story. You can't just go telling me that the only way to kill of demons is by beheading them with these swords (Specially considering the training with the big rock), then change the rules because the writer wanted to make a cool character that uses poison to kill off demons. She has her justification because the writer shit on the rules HE HIMSELF created, and I'm not going to blindly accept it just like that. |

| I'm almost certain they'll announce season 2 at the end of next week's episode like they did with Fruits Basket. I like Kanao and I do ship her with Tanjirou although their interactions have been minimal. Her background story wasn't until chapter 59.5 which comes after the train arc and they won't be showing that arc until the next season so I guess it's good they sneaked it in episode 24. Nice to see and hear Kanae again. She's so beautiful and adorable. Young Shinobu was adorable and more hotheaded than she is now. My fave part was Haganezuka losing his shit and attempting to murder Tanjirou lol One more episode to go and a long wait for the next season. |

Just_Chicken said: No.lihle808 said: I'm glad Tanjiro has finished his training, cannot wait for the next mission. Also I think Kanao has a crush on him, how sweet. Speaking of Kanao, that was a sad backstory, but it was too quick to end though. The writers should have capitalized on that story, after all I'm not in any rush since the story is far from being over. Mr Haganezuka and Kanamori really made my week, :-D :-D :-D :-D Are you assuming Kanao won't get her own story arc in the future? ;) I was just commenting on the length of this episode's backstory, that it was short and all. But in the future I would like her story arc to be televized! |

| Aww, gotta love those little butterfly girls, they are so cute >.< Fantastic episode once again. It was nice to receive more insight into Kanao's character and more characterization for Shinobu was quite welcome as well. She really knows how to motivate both Inosuke and Zenitsu, by the way. Man, so sad there is just one more episode left. This bunch of characters really grew on me so I really hope Ufo announces a second season at some point. |
| I'm not happy that this show is almost over lol but I know at least that season 2 will probably be announced pretty soon after season 1 ends |

| Good stuff. There's only been like 2 or 3 episodes in the entire series that disappointed me. Everything else has been entertaining and felt right so far. But especially now I feel like we're getting into the real meat of things... just as S1 is about to be over. Hopefully S2 will happen. |
| Next week, last episode : that already pains me to know that such a good show will eventually end. But I have no doubt we'll see more of Tanjiro and his comrades in the next years ! |
 |
| I'm really irritated that this is ending. Next time they'll make Inosuke serrated edged katanas. |

It more like cause he don't know about Shinobu. New Breath Styles got invented each new generation of slayer to fit more to the person using it. Urokodaki is retired so he couple generation before Shinobu. Many of the current pillars use styles that are off-shoot of older styles( Sound is lightning off-shoot, Mist is Wind off-shoot, Love is Flame off-shoot, Snake and Flower is Water off-shoot while Insect is Flower off-shoot.) |
| Shinobu having tantrums back them is a sign she matured due to something... something that will be revealed soon |
| I think I'm going to be a big fan of Kanao's characterisation. She seems very interesting. I'm really curious to hear the difference between fire breathing and flame breathing, though. Seems I'll have to read the manga for that one |

| Season2 confirmed yet? And I'm really liking Shinobu. Her and Giyuu are the only ones from the 12 I don't hate |
| this episode was cute and cool at the same time |
 |
| Once again, great episode. Kanao has always been an interesting character given how calm she is. Too bad that next episode will be the last.

   smell of coffee songs of sleep  |
| i was looking forward for a new zenitsu breaking down! yessu i love that makes my day but today hasn't :p even though was pretty funny anyways with my three dumies, kanao's past can't stand it she's so cutie :c just one episode less and it seems we'll have action gift for a ending season i love this series i don't want coming the end. |
KorhalChild said: Lol seeing Shinobu taunting Inosuke was so funny. I really liked her as a character and even more now that we got to see how she was when her sister was still alive. Too bad we have to wait another season to see more of her Yep,do you know what is funny? Their voice actors. Inosuke's voice actor voiced Kirito and Shinobu's voice actress Sachi in Sword Art Online. (Actually,no,it's pretty sad *trying not to cry while remembering what happened to Sachi*) |
| There is no bad waifu,only bad anime. |
| Hearing Ai Kayano's "Ara Ara" gives me too much zen. Now we are at the end...gonna nosedive into binge reading the manga because not waiting for an S2 announcement |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| This Episode pace seems to be slower... |
| The three little girls cheering for Tanjiro are hilarious. Shinobu is an expert on motivating people. The beginning of Tanjiro x Kanoa ship was unexpected but since this is a shounen nothing will probably happen until the end of the series. Inosuke damaging his new swords was amazing. He seemed so proud of himself too! It's sad that there's only one more episode after this |
 |
| More rehabilitation training, at least for Tanjirou to surpass Kanao, plus the 3 lady servants were the most hilarious and optimistic for his improvement. Seeing that Tanjirou is making a deep effort, both Zenitsu and Inosuke can't afford to be left behind. Plus, Shinobu sure is a cheerleader...in the most cunning sense. For a moment, through Shinobu's backstory last episode, brings a lot of eerie feelings, that the current day Shinobu ISN'T the Shinobu we know when she was young, and had to live off expectations of her deceased sister. That situation is the same for Kanao, being an abandoned orphan who literally switched off from the world. The saving moment of young Shinobu to Kanao doesn't tell much, but due to their broken individual lives, both Shinobu and Kanao feels distant. All I know is, it's gonna be a hell long time for both to recover from each of their traumas. In addition, with the arrival of Haganezuka, and with Tanjirou having a literate comedic moment where he feuds with his teacher having broken his lovely sword. Oh, the joys. Add in Inosuke who loves his sword in rivets, +1 for more comedy that had me laughing in spots. The thing is...there's a demon on the loose. With the final episode to go, I'm really praying for a Season 2 announced for continuation purposes. |

| More running around chasing each other and screaming ,,I'm sorry but i don't find that funny its just loud and irritating.But Jar Jar Binks didn't whine or cry witch was a huge plus Another tragic dramatic backstory!!!!Poor thing,, but its getting a bit much when every character have a traumatic sad past, Anime you are overdoing it!!! The first 15 episodes was great then you have just fallen apart!!! Action are your strongest card. Humour and drama is not, but obviously you dont care anymore!!! Sad to see, you have now 3/10 Im not impressed ,,,Better yourself and finish strong!!! |

| Was a decent and fun episode too just like episode 24. Tanjiro finally completes his training while Inosuke and Zenitsu will likely finish theirs too. Kanao and Tanjiro ship is starting to get in shape too. It's also funny when Shinobu managed to tame both Inosuke and Zenitsu. Haha. Ai Kayanon's "ara ara" is back too. One thing I noticed is that Shinobu's gotte softer now compared to what she was in the past (she looks fiercer there, maybe because of the death of her sister that she's gotten softer). |
 I am not a friend of justice. I am an enemy of evil. STAPLE STABLE |
| One episode left. Kanao's past was a great information why she acts like that, and Tanjiro, Inozuke and Zenitsu have been working hard to make themselves stronger. The demon at the train looks strong, and it looks like the Flame Hashira will fight it. |
