Pretty decent, an action packed episode. Gyutaro literally destroyed everyone by himself, he's a big threat to our heroes. Daki was beheaded, again. Tengen lost his arm, Inosuke gets stabbed, things will only getting tougher from now on.

Very slow pacing, too much innecessary monologue from Tanjiro interrupting the fights every 20 seconds, Tanjiro coming out with Deus Ex Machina boost powers just to become useless again so he can get a new power up in the next episode. Zenitsu is a way better character when he is sleeping. I don't know why the author didn't make him like this for the whole story.

Slightly better than last episode which was extremely boring af and 90% of it was just pointless talking with very cheesy dialogues, but it's not enough to save this trash.

If it wasn't for the animation or Ufotable doing this, people wouldn't be giving it so much praise because without the excellent animation and soundtrack, Demon Slayer is just a run of the mill generic story that one could quickly dismiss due to its very poor quality.

The good part:


  1. Main trio's attack, that was insane.
  2. Gyutarou fucking doing it, delivered what seems to be quite a fatal blow to Inosuke. Finally something that seem to be hopeless situation for once.




The bad part:

Holy shit where do I begin?


  1. Gyutaro holding Hinatsuru for like what, fucking 30seconds? What the fuck are you doing? Just attack or kill her like what you did to Inosuke. Not real time, I know, I know, but no, fuck you, Tanjiro was wriggling like worm on the floor and had like conversation with himself for eternity. That's so fucking bad pacing right there.
  2. Uzui's wives are being absolute burden and added nothing but fanservice so far. Hinatsuru's sneak attack which could have been good from last episode's cliffhanger was rendered useless the first 10seconds into this episode, and after that she is literally a burden in the fight. That's some Naruto women hater writing right there. Please, make them be useful somehow, Jesus Christ.
  3. Flashback about Uzui and his wives added nothing in this fight. They were completely misplaced and should have been in last episode before Hinatsuru launched her sneak attack, then it would have meant something.
  4. The time-pacing in the fights is absolutely horrendous, especially during their special attacks. Eg, Inosuke's Palisade Bite. You're telling me he did the sawing shit in that split half of a second? What the fuck is this, some warped dimensional hyper speed action? Everyone's monologue happens in like 0.01 seconds yet the dialogue is like wall of text worth. Like Gyutarou's monologue when he blocked Uzui and Tanjirou's attack, the fuck is that? These people have some super saiyan synapses or something? They can think faster than what's supposed to be superhuman speed actions? Fucking stupid.
  5. Yet another asspull technique from Tanjirou. Combining both breathing technique, wow. Without even training it! Somehow made him capable of fighting yet again. Stamina seems endless, his injury are all gone somehow.

Great episode, and what a cliffhanger.
Pacing was slow, I'll not lie but pacing really dropped but the animation is even better than before. And as I'd said earlier, what a damn cliffhanger!!

This episode's title is blatant false advertising. Uzui is giving all of the death flags in this episode, with the flashbacks and the constant "when this is all over" lines. I really like seeing the main trio fight together, I'm not sure if we've seen that yet. These cliffhangers on the other hand are just the worst.

The despair, the feeling of hopelessness, the thought that you're nothing but a burden to others, this episode was the flashiest one yet.
As a manga fan I so so so remember this scene :

Really amazing episode. I wanted so bad to see that combination attack animated. It was one of those moments one could call as "supreme shounen anime moments". Was I happy from what I saw? Definitely! I was delighted in how well it was animated and adapted in general.

By the way, I enjoyed those flashback scenes with Uzui and his wives. Aesthetics and direction were great.

Honestly how many 'almost' deaths of the demons and slayers do we have to see... its lost its impact long ago. Theres so much this episode needs you to overlook to be able to enjoy it. Im not surprised if they all end up alive, all as in uzui cause the boys arent ever dying, there's too much plot armor to think otherwise.

Also its like everyone's nerfed for the sake of this showdown. Before Tanjiro had to go super saiyin to cut down the cloth demon down and keep up with the tentacles, now they're just banter. Demon brother was impossible to keep up with now sometimes u can sometimes u cant.

They made it seem that these upper ranks demon advantage is that they can fight forever without tiring which is why Kyojuro Rengoku died fighting that upper rank. Whereas now, they all injured beyond shit but they are still keeping up with unlimited stamina+regen upper rank demons???????? Itd make sense if they didn't draw this fight out soooooo long. Those extra *pushes* would be short lived but impactful, whereas now its just like for theatrics.

....Also... /nerf Nezuko
if you're noticing almost deaths.. I know its bad in demon slayer.. But I fail to understand why people didn't notice it in fmab... It was so abundant

I feel like the fight is starting to drag a bit too long, maybe because they had to fight one demon then another immediately after. Or maybe it just feels like it's dragging out because Tanjiro won't stop his self-pity party.

How many times are we going to get Tanjiro saying "I can't move, no stamina", it's been so inconsistent and sudden how Tanjiro is able to keep fighting. It's like all his statement about his wound and fatique were pointless.

For all of you complaining about the cliff hangers and a little back story. Y’all need to stfu, how the heck are they suppose to put all the content from the manga in a 20 min episode. And then when they do, do it. y’all still complain about how lazy and rush they did it. If you don’t like it don’t watch it. Stop trying to ruin the show for every one else with the constant annoying b’ing.

Felt like they taking a lot of time defeating this upper moon.

Daki become more useless and stupider after she got beheaded twice before... She can do what she did with Tanjiro when Tanjiro almost behead her before.... Inosuke really slow doing the behead cut than Tanjiro is.... That part really annoyed me watching this episode...

So far, Zenitsu sleeping mode is so awesome... He look far different from his real personalities.. Imagine this... his 'wife' in the future can do bed activities with both of his mode xD

Wow, they all got no chance on Gyutaro...How the hell will the table turn? Can't wait to see it on next episode.

This series' production values are incredible, how can this be series be so consistently cinema-quality with such crisp art, tons of moments of otherwordly sakuga, spectacular voice acting and a bomb OST? If I ever made a webcomic/manga, this is the sort of adaptation I'd dream of. Wow.

If u talking abt nezuko, ill say it was because that girl literally hungry for blood but she suddenly become that strong what happened in between her first fight and that one? Lmao
And tanjiro i guess he’s been training but to use that long is dumb because he said he cant use it that long so why he can suddenly use it?

I think the flashbacks were too long and a bit unnecessary. The-talking-in-slowmo action scene also kinda ruined my enjoyment, so overall it's 3/5 for me.

Hinatsuru is clearly the best wife, and Uzui knows it ;)

As fun as this is, Tanjiro's plot armor is out of control. I don't think I've seen this many asspulls in one fight, ever.
Also one thing that irks me is that Tanjiro keeps saying shit about that EVERYTHING is his fault and responsibility, like he has to save everyone. Dude needs therapy.

I feel that if it weren’t for daki, gyuutaro would have finished the squad already. If I am correct I think muzan also pointed out that gyuutaro would have been more stronger if it weren’t for his sister.

Demon Slayer certainly has a habit of ending episodes of a juicy cliffhanger, week after week, huh? XD

Either way, this episode was pretty intense. The pacing was good, although it did have a few moments where it wasn't as good as it could've been. The flashback scene was original content, although it gives a bit more screentime for Uzui's wives as their contribution has been lacking, aside from Hinatsuru.

Everyone was fighting pretty well, though. Tanjiro stayed consistent, despite his stamina being very low, while Zenitsu is proving to be very capable at keeping calm and ordering the others when he needs to while sleeptalking. As for Inosuke, he was pretty badass as he charged headlong into Daki to have her head chopped off for the third time this season!

Sadly, Gyutaro is proving to be an annoying bastard as he put a stop to Inosuke by stabbing him, which also revealed that he defeated Uzui, who also had one of his arms cut off, too.

No idea if we have 2 episodes left or if one of them could be double-length, but aside from those thoughts, I do look forward to seeing how this battle will go now that the demon slayers are on the back foot and struggling.
