| These animations! This episode is by far the best episode of the year I've seen of any show so far this year! |

ProofByColor said: That looked pretty incredible. The new breathing style kinda felt like it was just pulled out of his ass for convenience but whatever. Now we have the problem where every 12 beyond this has to be even more powerful till it reaches a ridiculous point. I mean with this new breathing every other demon should be cut like butter. He just needs to practice with it a bit. I certainly wouldn't have had our protag be strong enough to take out the "super elite 12" so early on. Nezuko unlocking a blood art was pretty cool tho. I didn't read the manga but I feel like Tanjiro always knew the fire style and it's a family thing, like that dance ritual his father did, but he didn't realize that until know.. It sounds a bit convenient, I know, but I kinda like it tbh. |
 |
| This episode was incredible! The awsome fight scene with those amazing visual effects and music was so brethbreathtaking. I considered for a while to change the score to 10/10, but i'll wait for the last episode and than i will decide it. |
 |
| The way the story developed aside... holy crap this was one of the best action scenes in a looong time, rivals the likes of the ones in Mob Psycho II |
 |
| Wow..... This episode blew my mind and this is the reason why I still watch anime till this day. I need a drink after watching an episode like that. |

Most of the people can, fair for them, I just can't. Sorry :( I mean you see to get over it in Hunter with seeing it is a favorite of yours. It is the same here just a convenient solution for the protagonist Yeah but that happened after the whole Chimera ant arc, which is still one of the best shounen arcs out there, I already experienced over 100 episodes of greatness, in Kimetsu no Yaiba I haven't seen nothing yet, if they hit us with the bullshit so soon, I don't have high hopes for the rest of the show |
Fortune favours the bold!  |
| Amazing episode! The animation is top just like the OST! Without forgetting the new ending and emotion that goes with it! What a treat ! |

I rated Kimetsu a 4/10 already, I don't want attention, I'm not a troll, nor an elitist, you can look at my profile to see how many anime I actually like and give high ratings :D Yet the best argument you got is "YoU hAve SwOrD aRt OnLiNe At YoUr FaVoRiTeS" That's the lamest thing you can ever do, to check someone's favourites so you can judge them It's better than your argument tho |

Fafano16 said: Nezuko is just the best. I think she will best girl of 2019 easily.  I felt really bad for the demon. She just wanted to be a good sister. 🥺  Nah. She doesn't want to be a good sister. Everything she did was out of fear. |
nanashi796 said: DeathTheKid4 said: Worst episode so far. Plot armor galore, not for 1 but for 2 characters. That was some big bullshit, I can't get over this so easily like everyone seem to do so every demon has a blood art so why nezuko can't have it,and for being an asspull the new technique must have no explanation and they explained it. 2 freaking ghosts appeared at made them use those 2 techniques. Even Tanjiro is self aware at the end of the episode saying: I wonder why I suddenly remembered that technique at that moment. He's literally admitting to the asspull xD |

He was dying - saw his father breathing technic in his memories - used it it was there, not asspull at all. (not sure about the nezuko one, so you can have one argument) |
| Wow, just wow, I have never been amazed by the animation of an anime at this point... Including Shaft and very beautiful description art in series like 3-Gatsu no Lion (although they cannot be really compared...). This cinematic sequence at the end exceeded all previous ones, which were already super high level. Probably the best animation I have seen so far, just thrilling and beautiful. Now I have high hopes for the next Fate movie! ;-) This really reassures me because I was (as many) also annoyed by the two new characters (shouting or crying is no personality, sorry), plus one slightly boring episode where they recover from injuries. If this continues like this, this show will probably have one of the best animation and art of the year (for shounen at least), easily exceeding the ones of the likes of SnK. I bet that this show will become the shounen people can be proud to like in public. At this pace haters will be lacking of material! |

(not sure about the nezuko one, so you can have one argument) I can see that, but the problem, even if he remembered that and we agree it's not an asspull, the plot armor remains, he is in the lowest rank of the Demon Slaying Corps, and he fights one of the 12 strongest demons besides the final boss, he gets utterly destroyed, yet he manages to win with the new move. Getting the new move is more or less an asspull, even if we agree it isn't, the fact remains that (as far as we know) a random low ranked demon slayer kills one of the strongest 12 demons in this world. Yeah we can argue that he killed before one demon that was formerly one of those 12, but still, this one was much more powerful. Maybe later on we'll learn that Tanjiro is an alien god like Naruto was and everything will be fine, but so far, all we know is that he has huge plot armor. |

| What a heart-touching episode I can't stop replaying the last 6 min of it. I know this anime is definitely getting a season 2 I'm grateful this was adopted by Ufotable. Now I'm justing waiting for some official merchandise I want a hoodie in the color scheme of Tanjirō haori. |
 |
| i am speechless. i just loved it! one of the best anime of the season for sure! |
| BTW I like how the last 3 episode were each focused on one characters of the trio, each episode was a big step of their character development IMO Episode 17-Zenitsu Episode 18-Inisuke Episode 19-Tanjirou |

|
| Ufotable, I forgive you for that shitty cliffhanger from last week. Fuck. I can't decide whos fight was better. Zenitsu's or Tanjiro's |
 |
| I am glad to see Zenitsu getting the antidote that he needed so desperatly. So he's gonna be fine, I just wonder if there has been done any damage to his body by the poison that can't be undone. Ofcourse the child Spider Demon is one of the Twelve Demon Moon. He's a lot tougher than he looks. Seeing Nezuko hanging there with those threads around her, it made me worry. But with all bad things, comes good things, Nezuko finally shows us her Blood Demon Art, that was so cool! You can never get between the bond of siblings. Something the Spider boy didn't understand one bit at all. But man, this episode... THIS FUCKING EPISODE WAS LIT. The animation was off the damn charts, Ufotable outdone themselves if you ask me. The soundtrack as well, was beautifull, very nice fit for a deciding battle soundtrack. The whole Ending sequence was so great I am lost for words, like the words I have already given can't do the episode justice.. So beautifull yet so thrilling, you're sitting on the edge of your seat. What an ARTISTIC MASTERPIECE! |

| Honestly after I read the comments I think that this episode would be amazing but after I’vee seen it I don’t think so. Beautiful graphically but nothing else for me. |

Maybe JC would take over :P |

| Guess Kimetsu went Nanatsu no Taizai's route. I liked the episode but storywise/logicwise is was pure bullshit. Dude, with next random power-up you gonna kill the last boss barehanded. Prove me wrong. |

| Oof. My man's playing with fire, this anime has reached another level of litness... I like characters whose attribute is fire, so when he had water, I was like "fair enough " -only 'cause of how the water looked like traditional paintings. But now. Now, that was orgasmic, the water becoming almost molten in a way. But the sudden power. Big no no. P.S. That gave me a real ahegao face. |

Nanatsu no Taizai had the same problem. I still liked this episode but shit went to dogs storywise. |

| THAT FIGHT, THAT MUSIC, THAT ANIMATION, OMFG even Nezuko decided to throw her own flames lmao i gave this a 10 after the first episodes...dropped to 9 because of Zenitsu...but i guess i can't keep this anime on anything below 10, holy f*** |

fav "new" girls from winter <3 (2 extra girls this time, but 36 seasonals so whatever) ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks |
Kamiyan3991 said: he was able to cut rui's neck only because of nezuko's blood fire in the katana that destroy demons cells,and btw you think he won when he clearly say that tanjirou can't win lol.Welp, he couldn't do shit vs. that weak demon but he killed this one with broken sword.

faker1 said: Hey Is the manga worth it? I might start it after the end of the show but i'm scared i'd not enjoy it at the fullest, like what happened with haikyuu Manga recently has got alot better, but early part you have to bare with crappy artwork and combat. It doesn't even come remotely close to UFO's production value and detail/ storyboard/ paneling/ artwork. |

They basically got 2 OP power-ups at the same moment. |
Ventus_S said: i prefer the manga,this was the only episode that was better imo and maybe the zenitsu one,the manga expressions are much better and the pacing too.faker1 said: Hey Is the manga worth it?
