Everything is good until the fog absorbs people alive. Oh, yeah, well done Tanjiro for slicing that boulder.

Another episode filled with mind-numbingly tedious inner monologues and expositions. Why is this shit so popular again? It's like I'm watch some children's picture book, with this fucker rambling even the most obvious things non-stop. Everything is just told to you. You never "see" anything besides some action. You don't even see Tanijirou and the new girl introduce themselves to each other. He just tells you her name is Makomo, and then proceeds to describe their whole fucking interactions through his trusty inner monologues, instead of the show letting you see it happen, you know, like in a proper anime. What's the point of making an anime adaptation if the protagonist guy is going to describe everything like it's a manga or a light novel? Hell, even manga and light novels have more normal, organic dialogues than this show.

The passing of time in this episode throughout the training portion felt a bit odd to me, like the pacing of this episode too. It was good to see Tanjiro train intensively but didn't like how it was portrayed through the journal/diary format with those really lengthy monologues that would have been better if condensed and just shown a lot more at face value. It definitely felt like this episode would work as a manga a lot better than it did here, so the directing/scriptwriting could have been better. Monologues could have been more informative too of his mindset, rather than the same old kind of lines you get. Not a great episode, that's for sure.

Finally theres someone that could squat down with their heels down

Anyway, Tanjirou somehow sliced past Sabito through a boulder behind him.

I have watched the whole season 1, and this was the best episode imo. This episode is quite "simple" (not much information is given, and it's just about Tanjiro's training) but the presentation is phenomenal.

It was one of the most beautiful animated segments I have ever seen, even though as a whole I think the Season 1 of this anime was quite average.

That trainer guy really upset me, and that's certainly no way to actually train for anything. You gotta rest, or you mess yrself up! Anyway, the end of the episode was cool. It was interesting to see that those kids seemed to be ghosts. Long hair Tanjiro is cool

Oh so we just skipped 2 years? We barely seem to know anything about this world yet, and whether Nezuko needs blood/humans to stay alive, they somehow forgot to mention that during this. Not to mention how he was already good at all kinds of acrobatic manoeuvers even before his training for some reason. I guess maybe cause of hunting or something, but still.

Pacings really seems all over the place in these first 3 episodes.

Apart from that, the animation is great, comedy is kinda good, but not yet sure how to feel about this.

Solid episode, always hard to make training arcs enjoyable and this does a pretty good job of it. only issue is ghost continuity. like how the F*** did the ghosts beat the shit out of our main boi and not demons. like THEY could be the ultimate demon hunters cause there already dead. its like star wars ghosts. like if they can hold a lightsaber and interact with the physical world then why didn't they kill good ol palps. the ONLY explanation that makes sense is that the rock was sentiant and controlling the ghosts. so in my head cannon rockman is best senpai. 3/5

I love training arcs/training episodes in general so this was a W for me I love seeing MC train and get stronger. In the scene where they should his hand I was disgusted but also so impressed because I have trained outside in the cold before and my hands would blister and get rough so for his hands to be bleeding, I can understand how hard he had to train and how much perseverance is required. What's with everyone moving like ninjas and just disappearing into thin air๐Ÿ˜‚. Loved the jokes and humour as well perfect balance. For the first sword fight scene in the anime ever I was pretty impressed.

Sabito's expression ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿฅบ Are they spirits?
Anyway, it's nice to know that Tanjirou really improved. But Nezuko kept sleeping.
Wonder what will happen next

Kinda fitting that I took several months break from watching this show and come back to this episode. Guess I gotta be a man and finish the whole thing now.

i knew the training arc was coming but i didn't know it would be condensed into a single episode lol
literally 2 years of effort from main guy (his name hasn't stuck yet ^^')

the two i guess ghost children that showed up in the forest must've been spirits of the forest that stick around to help the old man's disciples train.
the contrast between the two children is funny lol one so rough and blunt while the other is soft and nurturing.
the ending was wholesome uwu but expected lol the anime couldn't continue if he didn't slice that boulder somehow...

my girl nezuko had less screen time than that rock tho although their roles were similar in this episode sjdflksd

The thing I really loved about this episode is that, unlike other anime, Tanjiro didn't became strong thanks to some kind of magic or superpower, but through hard work, discipline and sacrifice. His rivalry with Sabito is spectacular and I love to see him grow throughout the episode.
