| Man, ufotable wrapped up this very well, loved the Inception vibes in the first half. 10/10, I'm looking forward to the movie, just hope it gets in theaters in my country. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Holy fudge, this was probably my favourite episode of the series! Movie Production Levels right there at the start, those insane camera angles through the maze was bloody lit! Whoo, really loved that whole sequence! I can't even begin to imagine how stunning the production values for the movie will be like, I'm super hyped! Even that final insane angles and 'flow' across the train was incredible, my eyes lit up seeing how they slowed down to show the Fire Hashira there! Kibutsuji though, damn he's got no sense of 'holding back' jeez. Is he into cosplay xD but that aside great props to the VA for legit giving me goosebumps, that was seriously scary. Stunning stuff! Questions over why he wouldn't deal with Tanjirou himself though, I hope we'll get that bit soon. Some glorious Tanjirou moments to follow then, he's stealing the girl's heart like a pro here xD. Kanao x Tanjirou, oh boy definitely hoping this sails! Tanjirou and Inosuke's reactions to the train was mad hilarious too, totally lol'd there. Zenitsu's advice from the little girls though, lmfao. Man, this show has been exceptional so far but this episode alone forces me to up the rating even more! Dark, gritty and gruesome yet comical and amusing at times, the balance initially in Episode 11 and that ongoing arc was so-so but from then on it's been a real pleasure! Of course I do hope that Zenitsu antics will tone down a bit but I think I'm fine with it now nonetheless. Sound Department and Art/Animation Quality, well what's there to say that I haven't already week in and week out. Easily one of the very best, perhaps the best in fact, without a doubt in mind. A big thank you to Go Shiina and Yuki Kajiura for blessing my ears throughout the ride (even the cameo from this episode alone was incredible) I'll go as far as to saying that KnY raw Animation Quality beats that even of Violet Evergarden, and that's really saying a lot considering just how fantabulous that was. => Solid 9.25/10! I was going to settle with 9.00-9.10 before this episode but mad props to Ufotable yet again! Staff said this is an episode to not miss, and I totally and wholeheartedly agree with that statement. |
#Anime4Life be my Life Motto! #PrayForKyoAni  |
| That was a great final episode, and a great adaptation by ufotable My man Tanjirou is smooth with the girls, and that tease for the next arc was great. Season 2 wasn't announced but we're getting a movie for the next arc, so its definitely a win for me. BIG HYPE |
 |
| Damn i loved the camerawork in this episode, especially the scene at the end gave me chills. Having caught up with the manga i cant wait for the further arcs to be animated. Ufotable did a phenomenal job with this adaptation. The only reason I'm going to rate it a 9 is because I know what's coming next and i plan to rate that a 10. LOL |
 |
| The scene with Kanao and Tanjirou was so fucking cuuute my heart is melting. And when Inosuke saw a train for the first time.... "This must be the ruler of this land!" LMFAAOOOO. His reactions to everything are insane lol. Really looking forward to the second season though. |
 |
| Can't really understand how some people think that this anime has a bad plot, bad villain, etc.. For me it was super enjoyable, with splendid animation/music, the seiyuus did an explendid job, the characters are likeable, just a big 10/10 |
 |
| Ahh ufotable done a great job with animation this season Can't wait for the movie coming up |
 |
| The depiction of the demon fortress was honestly astonishing. Those camera angles really depicted how out-of-this world the whole thing is. Probably my favorite part of the episode, along with the Lower Moons slaughter (poor guys even had fodder designs). Woman Muzan is as cursed as in the manga, Nakime looks pretty and Enmu's voice is perfect. Nothing more to add to this. We got to see Genya, but he didn't even talk. Oh, well, his chance to shine will came later anyway. Inosuke's reaction to the train was kekworthy. Also, the final shot depicting the train with Rengoku sitting in one of the wagons and Enmu in the top of the train was magnificent. The movie can't come anytime soon, tbh. Only regret is that |
 |
| A good final episode. The lower 12 being dismantled was probably a hint to Kibutsuji's power. Creating these underlings and sharing his blood must go along with certain disadvantages for him. I also fear for Kanao since she got so close to Tanjiro. Oh, and Tanjiro and Insouke being total country bumpkins was a nice bit comedywise. The movie announcement came at the right time. I will fait for the rewatch until then. |
 |
| And so this wild ride finally comes to an end. It was really enjoyable and it's rare to find a battle shounen adaptation that's done this well. We got spoiled with Ufotable handling this, they took the standard and went way above and beyond x100. Was hoping for a second season announcement but I'm looking forward to the movie! As long as we get more I won't complain. EDIT: Forgot to mention originally, holy shit Muzan is a fucking savage lol. He demolished the Lower Moon so easily with literally zero remorse. It was also nice to finally hear Kanao speak. |

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| kanao's heart went kyun because of tanjiro but I still hope there won't be any romance. Inosuke and tanjiro's antics on train station lol. Ufotable nailed it with this one. |
 |
| It's been an excellent ride watching what I would consider one of the best shows to come out this year. This episode is great and I loved the used of CG, especially with the interactions of the lower six and the (now former) Michael Jackson lookalike. I'm actually gassed up for the movie. 10/10 amazing show |
| This show has certainly been a ride. The animation has been beautiful and I am sad to see it go. but at least we get a MOVIEE |
| This finale was amazing! I'm sad that its over but MORE sad that we'll have to wait for eternity for season 2 :( |
Kaiser_Senpai said: deg said: gonna add him to my favorites lol his digital coloring and effects is like what made ufotable popular He really needs to direct more, it was amazing, as a director he was way better than Sotozaki. I really want him to direct more scenes, idk if he can handle anime only by himself but at least some scenes, he sure knows! oh he directed this episode? no wonder it seems better and i notice he is also the chief staff for 3DCG there in ufotable according to his ANN profile and wow im really impress by his camerawork that is the main strength of 3DCG |
| Great finale episode, building up hype for the train arc. The ship is sailing smoothly  |
 |
| All i have to say is what an absolute banger. |
| Tanjirou and Inosuke seeing a train for the first time was funny. I will definitely miss this show, don't know if i should start reading the manga because we still don't know if there will be a 2nd season. I give thsi anime a 10/10.  |

Still have to wait for the movie and another arc of the second season before we get to see them all together before the episode ended, but it's fine. Time to wait for the movie meanwhile. |

He's really good at least when it comes to 3D related scenes like he showed us today, he's amazing ahah. |
 |
| My only complaints about the first half of the episode was that the whole "female Michael Jackson is ruthless" takes way too much time. It was impactful of the first and second death, but after, it was just the show trying to be edgy (I don't like to use that word, but it's the only definition I could find for the scene). But I really enjoyed the second part. The pacing was a bit faster (thank god) and the characters were much closer of being... actual good characters. Probably the most consistent episode of the whole show Overall, this show is a good popcorn flick. Definitely one of the best animated shows of all time, with an amazing soundtrack. But as for anything else, the show is pretty weak.Considering the rating this show has right now, it may be one of the most overated shows I've seen. But I will say it has potential of being better. Just need to speed up things a little bit, and give some actual content for the viewer actually care about the events of the show |

| THE TRAIN ARC IS COMING !!! AND ITS A MOVIE ! EVERYONE board the train !!! |
| This was an amazing episode to end the season I'll miss this anime so much, it was a good journey! I'm really looking forward to the movie, that should be one of the best movies if made well Damn, I don't even know when was the last time I was actually sad because of an anime ended. I will seriously miss this anime, I've looked forward to Saturday each week because of it so much! Not even Shield Hero(the other anime I enjoyed the most this year) made me feel like this Easily 10/10 for the anime. |

| very sad this show end, hope for 2nd season |
| Interesting to see Kibutsuji's true motive. Damn Tanjiro, building his own harem just before he leaves the place xD It finally ends. Looking forward for the sequel, and more Inosuke (my favorite character). :)) |
| OMG , never expect background graphic on Lower Moon meeting will be that amazing . What a flawless animation once again by ufotable. Also, the decision of making Rengoku's arc into a movie is very wise because we can only see his action only around that train T_T |
Koshi_Inaba said: Not a jackass just a coward. He uses the demons to defend himself from the demon hunters and to help him find a way to resist sun light. He is scared of death. Been waiting for muzan butchering the lower moons scene. This is the scene where his real personality is shown. Seriously, anyone who thinks muzan might be sympathetic, wipe that thought from your mind. He is a grade A jackass |
| Sweet finale that makes you lust for so much more. |
| So the next arc will be adapted to a movie? Nice This was a really great final episode. That scene with Kanao is really emotional and that scene in the Demon Fortress is mind-blowing. For my final thoughts for this anime, while the animation is just beyond amazing and the soundtrack is definitely phenomenal, the flaws to the pacing and the sometimes out-of-place comedy made my score for it change from time to time. Other than that, the story is pretty great, I can see the potential. The characters, in turn, simply lie between mediocre and good. My final score will be 9/10. |
 |
| Extremely well done finale. Cinematography has been excellent all throughout the series and the Muzan scene was specially chilling. That's some amazing CG camerawork. All its characters are very enjoyable to see both bickering and fighting, and Zenitsu was a highlight of the series for me. And even if most of the rest haven't been developed enough they have some eye-catching designs and gimmicks that really sell their personalities. I'll be looking forward to the movie. Knowing Ufotable and after watching both their Heaven's feel movies, I can only expect the fights to be borderline orgasmic. While it doesn't really reinvent the shônen formula, Kimetsu no Yaiba knows what it wants to be and does it so well that it will be remembered for years to come within the vast sea of shônen anime. Perfect gateway anime for newcomers with some amazing animation to boot, but veterans might have seen the type of characters it has a few too many times (even if they are quite enjoyable and have some interesting spins to them). 8.5/10 |
 |
| dear god, horrible horrible CGI and awful characterization by seiyuu of muzan, man you're supposed to be angry and this is what you give |
 |
| And the title for the most overrated anime of the year gooooooes to: Kimetsu no Yaiba the 5/10 anime with great animation, shallow story, and recycled characters from other shounen. |
Fortune favours the bold!  |
