ktg said: Lies in the first 3 paragraph: - He sells "rocks" everyday: your first paragraph's logic stand on this statement which isn't true. - CGI looks like San Andreas: no, it's currently the best animation and certain shots look extremely realistic, while San Andreas never looked realistic. - The narration while there is no narrator: this is my favorite point. You have a problem with something that doesn't exist in the show. :D What you misinterpreted as narration is that the characters were thinking. That's why your whole 3rd paragraph isn't true. So, not a single statement is true in those 3 paragraph. Good job. -Sorry I called charcoal a rock -I was pointing out that the 2-d characters look like they don't belong in a fully cgi world and how much they stand out. -The main character in the earlier episodes is literally stating every action he performs during his training WHILST we're looking at it. Hearing a character's internal dialogue can count as narration :D |

| I tried Demon Slayer.... and dropped it after four episodes I think? I was comparing the show to Inuyasha honestly. The things that turned me off: 1. The protagonist has the nose of a dog... with no explanation. The whole "Chosen" one thing is just getting old to me, and I think we can all agree you don't need to be "chose by destiny" to fit this archetype. You can have a special skill that sets you apart from everyone else, and in Demon Slayer it's the kid's smelling power that appears comparable to Daredevil's blindness. Where did it come from? Did his parents have it? Is he part demon? It's not explained and makes the guy unrelatable, IMO. 2. The sister being gagged. Her dealing with the conflict of being a demon was so interesting a concept to me, what drove me to the show (Inuyasha but role reverse?! Like Wha!!!), but then they had to freakin' gag her. What are her thoughts or feelings on having to fight urge to eat human flesh? I've been told by MY sister (Who's a fan) that she expresses herself more as show progresses, but muffling your female lead was offputting to me. 3. I hold shows with a high animation budget to a higher standard. Maybe I don't like the idea of being tricked, or that a studio thinks they can distract me with God-level graphics, but any show with a high animation budget better have a plot or characters or world building greater than the norm. Demon Slayer.... Just didn't wow me like other long-winded Shonen before it did. For the record, I don't hate the anime either, so I don't fit that group. But anyone hyping Demon Slayer as the greatest thing since the microwave, while crapping on anyone saying, "I don't think so..." Would make them hate a series by association. That has to be where some of the hate is coming from... Because I don't see the show as being so controversial it's hated. |
| For its explosive media popularity using already known formulas (not original, but well used and well animated). |
| I've never seen hate toward Demon Slayer. |
| because its dogshit, lame ass bleach copy |
| good opinions on anything, block = I own you |
| Idk if some1 could hate this anime (good story, good animation, good characters, good jokes). Maybe there are people who don't like the story or they find something that is ridiculous. Those who already know the ending or arcs (from the manga) can influence the hating. |

Hearing a character's internal dialogue can count as narration :D - No, you said everyday, which is not true and your whole statement was based on that word. - Then sorry, you are wrong for a completely different reason then. The 2d and 2d work perfectly fine together. This is how it supposed to look like. In the early episodes you can tell by looking at their feet where their 2d feet meet with the 3d snow. - No, he was saying how regularly he does something. Even if you saw him swinging the sword, you can't tell when he started, did he do that everyday etc. That was the point of those monologues. - Why would you focus on like the most pointless aspects of it? - I know you can tell, because they stand a lot because they don't fit together. - That was him narrating, every time you hear his thoughts he is commentating what you can clearly see. |

| The only thing I hate about this series really is because of the characters who scream or whine a bunch in an idiotic way...who thinks that's "funny". It's annoying. |

You were talking about how "they say goodbye to each other while Tanjiro does this trip EVERYDAY". - That's a false conclusion. Standing out is not equal bad. You can easily tell how mugen train is CGI, but because it is good CGI, it is not a problem. - Did you see that he was doing for 2 years? :DDD I'll believe it if you link a 2 year long video about Tanjiro's training. Otherwise, you lied. - Regardless of whether it was everyday it was still a very frequent trip, even the locals in the town all knew him well and were very familiar, regardless of if it's once a week or once a day it was still very frequent. - Didn't say it did, but I don lik it - Yes, we did see what he was doing during the two years, nothing that he stated verbally was information that wasn't made clear via the visuals. |

| cause the writing is fucking shit, thats really it lol |
Potato1357 said: it’s one of my favorite animes of all time, but if i had to say something, it is a new gen shonen that got popular really fast; it’s going to get hate one way or the other ye but if that was the case jujutsu would also have one, also for me personally since i have been following demon slayer since before the anime its cause the writing is actually dogshit |
scrapertoop said: Haven't watched more than 2 episodes, but from what I've seen; Demon Slayer was a victim of overhype, people were promised the greatest show of all time and when it didn't end up being every viewers' new favourite, they felt like "That's it?" And that sense of disappointment turned into hatred.Personally I love the anime and manga too. I find Tanjiro a good MC and the side characters are great too. But for some reason i have been seeing hate towards the anime. Share your thoughts on why you hate the anime. |

| not a bad show, But I personally almost hate it because of the characters being extremely 1 note and the story being nothing special in any way. no one act outside of their one trait. their development is little to none, and what is there is extremely by the book. the story is also the most predictable by the book thing out there. my hero uses the formula JJK perfects it chainsawman subverts it demon slayer IS IT and I mean that in the worst way possible. if not for the near perfect adaptation, I wouldn't even call this show average. but thanks to ufotable, it is undeniably pretty good. very overrated though. this show should not have it's season 2 rated higher than monster, vinland saga and made in abyss. |

| Well, imho i love demon slayer for the fighting and ost aspects and that's about it why i would rant abt the good parts of this anime. Yes the plot is simple because at least mature people would understand the plot easier and can predict the ending of this easier like yes the good guys are gonna win but how many side characters are gonna die? will one of the mcs beside tanjiro die? sometimes good stories don't just refer to how tragic/emotional/without major important deaths story can be but stakes like deaths to one mc would prob make some people respect this anime more but also hate it because your fav mc die right? abt the hashiras i can't delve deep towards them since it would be a spoiler. The characters are lovable yes in your usual shonen trope pov and for me is just decent but their dynamic throughout the series sometimes get repetitive and the comedy aspect in my pov is just so overused i can't even laugh at it properly like to the point it feels annoying and cringe but hey that's probably because i'm an older audience who prefers psychological animangas so yes you all would think i would dislike this anime but i just still love this anime mainly for fighting animations and ost aspects and that's about it. All and all for me is just decent, not saying it's a bad anime nor i would say any anime is bad/trash whatever you interpret it. I respect all animes in their own way bec they got what they're good at right? why for me is decent is that mainly revolves around the plot. Plot points are the biggest factor in my pov on how good an anime can be if the animation/fighting animation/ost doesn't carry it at least in my opinion but i still respect those who enjoy this anime a lot as well. I just hate those typical fans who would scream like "IT'S THE BEST ANIME EVER AND YOU CAN'T CHANGE MY MIND" or other kny stan like "KNY is better than your anime fight me" then when you try to tell your honest opinion without being disrespectful sometimes among those fans your opinion will get trashed on which well those are your typical shonen fans who are still too young either their age or their mentality in their mind to understand how to respect our taste in animes or they're too obsessed with one anime and not giving any other anime a slight chance so it will make you look like you're a biased person. I actually didn't put any of kny animes nor the manga towards my list because i don't want to give a bad score for the sake of being nice towards this series overall since this is a super popular series, i adore this series in it's own way and i don't want people to take me as i'm a kny hater. If i put them in my list i prob would give the first a 7 then 6 then 6 all the way to the end which i do not want because i just love the animation and osts so much to the point i would feel bad giving this godlike anime at fighting and osts as 7/6 scores and that's about it. |

| Because Ufotable have taken it to another level. No question, the hype wouldn't be as prevalent without Ufotable. Some fans can't take it I guess. But that's one of the reasons I enjoy KNY and look forward to a new production. There is a good amount of hype because we know that another Hashira is going to be the focus of attention. |

Demon Slayer.... Just didn't wow me like other long-winded Shonen before it did. This pretty much encapsulates my thoughts exactly. I literally just got done watching the ep where he smells the demon doctor chick and he says "I don't smell any deception coming from her" implying she's a "good person". You can't "smell" if someone is a good person. That doesn't make any fucking sense. lol I even gave it a pass after he said he could "smell" enemies underwater. If it wasn't for all the logical pitfalls and basic rules just being constantly broken because of just the creator's "eh, screw it" mentality then it would be alright. But none of it makes sense. And just like Mist said, I don't hate it. But it's definitely not great by any means. |
