I'd say that the anime pacing is just fine, neither slow nor fast. Only the first chapter have around 50 pages; the rest have 17-19 pages. Early Kimetsu chapters have really fast pacing, so it makes sense that the early episodes cover 2 chapters each. I predict that it will become 3 chapters per episode after ep 5.

I'm really happy with it. I know people take it for granted because it's ufotable, but I appreciate the studio for their attention to detail (they even animated the moving jaws of masked characters when they're speaking). Voice acting and music are top notch (by the way I feel the soundtrack so far is more Go Shiina than Yuki Kajiura. Wish people would give him more credit). Overall the anime adapts the source material faithfully, and expands upon it (such as the fight with Sabito). If they can keep up this level of quality for the remaining episode, I have no doubt this will be a great adaptation.

My guess for the 6th episode is either till the 12th chapter or the first half of the 13th chapter. While ending on the first half of the 13th chapter is the most fitting ending, I’m not so sure they have enough time to reach it. We’ll see

Most likely gonna be the last arc of the season. Best stopping point for the season without rushing and it gives you a taste of the scope of the later arcs which is gonna serve as a great "go read the manga if you want more" end until the assumed S2 lol.

Pretty unlikely tbh. Unlike the already adapted chapters so far, the chapters that will be adapted next episode will be pretty straightforward which can be covered quickly.
Like Xenocrisi said, it'll be either 3 chapters or 3.5 chapters for ep 6. There's the chance that they'll be shifting some scenes around a bit to make it flow better since they've already done so with the past episodes or even add some original scenes but I think it's pretty safe to go with the mentioned expectations.

So they did add quite a bit of stuff early on before Tanjirou actually meeting the demon, which I'm not complaining about since it really made the anime flows a lot better.

Ep 6 ended with chapter 11 so they're still doing 2 chapters this week.

Ep 7 is still adapting 2 chapters with chapter 12 and 13 this week. They can still fully adapt up to chapter 69 while keeping it average 3 chap per ep for now but at this point, I'm just gonna wait until we actually get into Natagumo Mountain Arc where most of the fights are to get a sense of where they're ending the season since I'm positively sure they're gonna keep adapting the 1st-cour on similar pacing up until the point at the end of the ED sequence.

If they end up ep 13 at the point in the ED, they can still finish up Demon Train by keeping all remaining 13 episodes on 3 chapters average btw.

Natagumo Mountain arc is quite long, but I truly doubt they wanna make it last more than 5 episodes, which would make sense, and they would still have time to adapt till chapter 69. So I’m gonna predict that the last 3/4 episodes will adapt the Demon Train arc

By the end of the second cour they should complete upto Natagumo Mountain Arc.

natagumo mountain as the final? God I hope not. I still have my faith that Ufo will adapt akaza vs Rengoku's fight for the final arc of this season.

They should be able to do the whole training easily, but it's not a good place to end the season on. Ideally the first season finale should be the conclusion of train arc, but it will require them to speed up the upcoming fights a bit.

Yeah it's not an ideal place to finish the season (although there'd be a nice meeting as a cliffhanger between the demons), but I think they already have season 2 in mind which will probably cover Demon train arc and red light district.

Where’s a good ending spot (in terms of Chapter number) for the 26th episode, if I may ask? Is it likely that they’ll follow 2 Chapters per Episode for the second cour too?

Anyway, thanks for going out of your way and doing this! I’m about to catch up to the show today so I’d like to believe the pacing will remain steady throughout you see.

Chapter 66 or something like that. Although at this point it looks like is going to adapt till chapter 50 or something, and it’s not the best stopping point imo since it would mean a cliffhanger ending but whatever

I’ll be hoping it ends at around the 66th Chapter too because I do not like cliffhangers, especially the season finales.

Haven’t read the manga but the beginning episodes dragged a lil imo but after 3 or 4 it picks up and so far stays at a consistent pace with little filler.

I don't know what they were even thinking. 2 chapters is slow enough, but now it's only 1.5 chapter. They could have included
and it would have made a good cliffhanger too, but no. They are treating this anime like a long-running one like Naruto or Black Clover. Now we can officially say goodbye to the train arc being animated this season. What a shame.
