Would this show still be popular if Tanjiro refuse to kill the demons?

Assuming it was still just as flashy, most people wouldn't really care that much.

What a dumb post, are you trying to troll or something. It's called "Demon Slayer" not Demon and friends.. it's kill or be killed.. this is a freaking dark fantasy genre not some kind of making friends anime.

This is a hypothetical scenario, it's not like op doesn't know that Tanjiro kills demons in DS. What are you on about?

I wouldn't call it dark fantasy lmao
The series tries to be so comedic and fails miserably at it
Half of the faults of this show would be gone if they removed the unnecessary comedy

I think the show wouldn't even work if Tanjiro refused to kill.

He doesn't totally see it as killing demons though, he sees it as putting them to rest so that they and the people that could be hurt by them can finally rest at ease.

Exactly. Tanjiro's approach is already unique, compared to the vast majority of demon slayers. He doesn't see slaying demons as just killing them, fueled up by rage and vengeance. He rather puts them to rest, freeing them from their misery, knowing that his sister shares similar fate. It's not like humans wanted to be turned into demons. The general rule was that they got forcibly turned into them.

fast and furious doesn't kill all its villains and they often join the main cast as pretty good characters. Like Deckard Shaw. The show will pretty much be repetitive since it just Tanjiro fights Demons, kills them, mourns their death, and then we get to learn about the backstory.

If every demon don't cry that how muzan slept before their mama and penetrated tunnel with his demon to make them demon then show would be definitely a lot better.

First, i don't think Demon can be considerd a fantasy and that is why so much people lost it when it got the fantasy award rather than Made in Abyss or Mushoku Tensei.

Second, this show is absolutely not dark. It is a compilation of manichean villains and oh so sad backstories and the most tragic thing that happened yet in this anime is the death of the flamme hashira that i just didn't give a shit about, given he was introduced 1 hour ago. 

Third, do you have something against the "making friends anime"? Because i find it to be one of the best tropes in anime and it is definitely more positive than all the power scaling in battle shounens so no need to be so toxic about it.

Then someone else would have to kill demons right? The good thing of this show is that villains stay villains and never do good things or become friends with MC.

Tanjiro would die, and another main character will take over it and bam a classic in people's books.

it wouldn't affect the shows popularity that much but it will affect Tanjirou's popularity very much and I probably wouldn't like him as much as I do now either
