| Chibi Nezuko is the cutest thing ever. Love how this show has that nostalgic and sad feeling after a "victory", there is no winning on that show, everyone has lost so much. |
| Good Episode I would give it an average of 3.5/5 Just how Cute Nezuko is <3  |
| Why literally every villain that goes through a redamption, must do it when he's dying? |

| Meh, too late for me to really care about Rui. The flashback was ok Mini Nezuko was one of the cutest things I've ever seen in this anime industry KAWAIIIIIIIII 😍😍  |

Here is a fun question for the anime-only friends: can you guess who is the strongest among these Hashira based on impression alone? The true answer might surprise you A LOT XD |
| I don't know if I was the only weak person that cried like a baby with the sad story about Rui, but I did it. By the way, it was strange the situation it saved Tanjiro and Nezuko of they being called by the slayers demons society's, now I'am wondering why it's supposed that Giyuu is the mostly hated between the pillars but I really wanna believe that is because of he is too strong or something like that. |
-¡Give yourself to me! |
| Yo, Nezuko is the cutest thing in the world. |
 |
| Rui backstory was sad, Nezuko being cute, also I was wondering when that girl was gonna show up. |
| So sad! He just wanted some incest man. Low-key some of these Demons are so lacking in depth they just come of as school shooters I'm supposed to give a fuck about. No, even worse, some dude who couldn't write and another who was bad at playing drums or something? They're all terrible edgelords anyway whatever! What's the point of trying to humanize them in this cheap way before their death every time LOL. Oh ye to show how kind Tanjirou is.. he smells their emotions. It's so dumb when there are actual demons who voluntarily help humans. It's impossible to sympathize with these comical mass murderers, just look at the way low-tier demon slayers get killed it's honestly hilarious. Hmm so I was kinda right? They ARE a cleanup crew and foodservice.. what have they been busy with all this time hundreds of humans went missing. Even their own Corps members! And this Giyu guy rekt the Leader easily. I'm mindblown. What were they busy with? Sure as hell not protecting some legendary family line. Just look at how big their organization is.. |
| poop |
| Tanjiro didnt notice who knock him out lol |
omg Nezuko stay like this forever 😍 |
 |
| It was a nice and calm episode. The end was still a cliffhanger though. Ufotable kills it each time. If this anime doesn't get any awards with this top-notch animation I'm gonna flip some tables. The manga (art-wise) is nothing special but the animation, man, it's just SO FRIGGIN GOOD. |
| If you read Eleceed you're automatically my friend. |
| The stories about the Demon's past as a human really make me feel sad, same goes when I saw Rui's backstory. I can't blame Shinobu for wanting to kill Nezuko, as she doesn't know the situation. But I am glad Giyuu was there to hold her off. Only for Shinobu to send Kanao to try to kill Nezuko. (She's also pretty cute if you ask me) OMG, Nezuko shrinking to avoid that sword and then running on, was by far the cutest thing this episode. So the Demon Slayer Corps Headquarters... we saw pretty much all the pillars in that final shot, looking forward seeing more of them (and if Giyuu is going to get punished or not). |

| Okay that ep was sad, funny and cute at the same time with the myriad of stuff that went on. However....the only thing that is getting to me is this: Tanjiro has managed to be a member of the DSC for this long without ANYONE in HQ knowing about his sister? Are you fucking kidding me right now? I mean...his damn bird obviously reports on his behalf back and forth to HQ and you mean to tell me that no one knew about Nezuko outside of his teacher and Tomioka? That's...that's kind of a hard sell here. But we shall see how this "Trials" arc goes. |

I think it's only seen Tanjirou with that box on his back It makes me want to go back and double check; plus if the cleanup crew is always near by to tidy things up after every DSC mission...it almost begs the question of just HOW things are carried out behind the scenes. I'm hoping this stuff gets answered soon. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| I'm surprised no one has mentioned how Giyu and Shinobu just stopped the fight and pretended like nothing has happened when the crows were giving the orders I mean yeah they got orders that made their fight basically pointless, but still I found it a bit strange |
|
| Chibi nezuko was the best thing ever, even with a cool down episode, this anime doesnt fail to deliver... but theres only 5 episodes left. RIP until next time Xenocrisi said: Ehmmm, moshi moshi? Nezuko running away from Kanao was like the cutest thing ever. It was just so overwhelming LMAO And DAMN, Muzan was hot as fuck in the past. What do you mean, Muzan is still hot as fxck |
 |
| Great episode. Backstory of Rui is the first half of the episode. And the other half is aftermath of the battle that concludes this arc. Chibi Nezuko is cute. And other Hashiras appeared. Overall nice conclusion. To the next episode |
 |
| Felt a little slow, and man, how did I forget how annoying Shinobu and Kanou were in this scene? Anyways, it hit all the necessary nails.

It's not even redemption, it's just a regaining of humanity and admission of fault. Death and a revelation of human memories understandably would vastly change a dying person.

The true answer might surprise you A LOT XD Well I don't know about that, but I can tell they would make hell of a fight against any of the twelve Kizuki, probably some of the best ones in shounen anime, mainly the guys on the left, right and in the middle |
|
| This episode ended up being quite surprising and suspensive, though the first half was really sad. I'm glad they did show Rui's backstory. It seems things are about to get interesting in the next episode. |
  Reach for the Stars☆ |
| Ah finally, Rui is now really dead & "buried", I thought we would never get to see him vanish lol A different episode this time, it went from PvE to PvP, or more like Slayers vs Slayers. Though this will be interesting to learn a bit more about their hierarchy. |

| Another episode too light on the Zen-man but whatevs. |
I wonder how much the seiyuu got paid for those Nezuko noises |
| Rui's backstory was very sad because he had a family all along, but he killed them due being manipulated Muzan. Once again Nezuko steals the shows by making herself small while running away. Zenitsu being wrapped up like a mummy was pretty funny. So next week we get to meet the pillars of the Demon Slayer Corps. I can't wait. |

| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
I loved this episode for all the waifus that come out and as a nezuko although they can kill her he manages in the most kawaii way possible  |
| Amazing episode as always! Rui's backstory surely was sad, but that flashback was really well executed! Finally the girl from final selection, Kanao showed up, she is really beautifull and her voice actress suit her well! Nezuko running in chibi mode was so cute and funny! I am glad Tomioka kinda remembered about Tanjirou and protected Nezuko! I am glad they decided to capture them instead of kill Nezuko, i am really curious for next episode, can't wait for it! |
 |
| Rui's story was a sad one. i think that most demons have a sad background story. we are finally going to meet all of the Hashira. they all look interesting. looking forward to the next episode. |
| A really sad and touching flashback for Rui, as he's finally killed. How did Giyuu forget about Tanjiro and Nezuko from episode 1? Can't wait for next episode to see more members of the Demon Killing Corp. I never knew I needed tiny Nezuko in my life... until now. |
Judgment526 said: That's a male. It's never really specifically stated in the manga how the individual pillars rank power-wise, though you do get a general sense of where each one stands as you see them in battle, based on the matchups and their performance. Funny enough though, we do know EXACTLY how the pillars rank purely in terms of physical strength, and there are definitely some surprises there lol... Well guys, I guess it's time to revisit manga a little bit XD (we are currently at chapter 43-44,next episode begins 45) Although I will definitely not blame you guys forgetting that since the power ranking of Hashira is never mattered in the upcoming battle; s thus that little fun question will not spoil any plot points nor characterization for the anime-only people. |

| Nezuko is so freaking adorable in this episode like damn i just want to hug her and crush her against my body (tho she's probably shrink and slip through my arms) |
| I can see where this season will end. It will be a stronger Tanjiro of course, but it surely won't be easy. The music in this show is so amazing, it really complements the great art and animation. Also, little Nezuko is cute. |
  Once we realize it, everything will fall into place Our hearts calling to the future with all their might We'll move forward, holding each other's shaking hands |
| Rui’s flashback was pretty sad to watch. Shinobu loves trolling Tomioka lol Mini Nezuko running around was fun. Those other Hashira have some interesting designs. |
