The demon slayer hate is wild, I’ve never seen so many people go out of their way to hate on a show just because other people like it.

and I’ve never understood the “mid-story” thing either, yes the story is simple but it’s a simple story done perfectly, it doesn’t try or even need to be a story telling masterpiece like aot because the story that demon slayer tells it’s perfect for what it’s trying to achieve.

the story is good and easy to follow, the animation and art is gorgeous and the characters are very compelling, it just works. 

And of course everyone has their own taste and opinions but the amount of people who literally go out of their way to hate on demon slayer just baffles me, like I’ll be looking at a new episode discussion and all I see is this is mid, boring, trash like bro we are on season 3 now, why are you still watching if it’s so bad.

Some people feel like it gets too much undeserved praise. I get that, I feel that way too but there's too much negativity around here so I suggest shitposting instead of posting "mid" everywhere.

Ignore them and enjoy what you like. One of the reasons why they hate demon slayer is because they are jealous that their favorite anime is not getting so much attention

When something is popular, it inevitably gets people that go out of their way to hate it. I guess some people would even classify me as "hating" on the show, just because I don't really like it that much. I think the animation is overal spectacular, but I do really dislike the comedy in the show. The characters don't apeal to me either. All that being said, it's unfair just to hate because of pupularity, the show has it's place and is easy to get into.

I don't hate Demon Slayer, otherwise, I would have dropped it in the very 1st season.

However, I believe the comedy is fucking garbage and I will shit on that goddamn, cringe, loud comedy if I keep seeing it since that shit literally ruins the anime for me, good thing this anime has other good things to make up for it like the awesome animation and fight scenes and that's what I'm here for but yeah, I just hate that cringe, loud comedy, man.

How can something get too much praise? If it gets a lot of praise it just means a lot of people like it. How is that bad? I think it deserves all the praise in the world, if you disagree than just don’t watch it or don’t watch content around it.

Not hating on DS like you are describing, however I feel like this show has lost its charm from season 1. The story is simple yes and it does its job, but its damn boring. We all know how the story is gonna play out beforehand. Comedy is awkward and cringe, nothing like in s1 which was actually funny. Tanjiros "I am nice to everyone, even people who almost killed my sister" mentality is getting tiring. He has no character developement. And what is up with the overused monologues of the character while fighting? Its annoying as hell and unnecessary. Do the anime fights now have to explain every bit to the viewer, when its painfully obvious whats going on. And DS fight arent complex. If it wasnt for the awesome animations, I would have dropped S3. Its got likeable characters, so thats a good thing.

i totally agree, demon slayer is not the best and even far from being but none of the demon slayer enjoyers ever claimed that the story is unique & one-of-a-kind. main thing for this anime is it's animation, design and plot being simple yet so charming and fun to watch
also in general i never really understand why people care so much about others taste in anime. i literally couldnt care less about someone giving a 1/10 scoring to an anime that i scored with a 10/10

I never knew that being generic means a story is bad or undeserving of praise

People these days istg act like they never ever enjoyed simple fairy tales and non complicated stories, they just need to accept the fact that DS is more popular and recognised show than their fav one, it is mid which lies between good & great, so hate or trolls for DS are irrelevant until unless you get tick off by those edgy kids who barely entered in their teens and act like they are the most coolest person ever by acting like "Seinentards"

However some DS Fanboys & girls also deserve some blame for hyping it like the "best thing ever" even after knowing that it also has many flaws so the fandom needs to welcome the constructive criticism towards the show

Besides that, Demon Slayer is easily 7-8/10 storywise which have some flaws just to increase some drama to make the scenes impactful
The quality adaptation of this show had made it worth 8.5+/10
So in conclusion, only listen to constructive criticism and rest are NPCs

The more popular the show, the more hate it gets, because it's all about attention.
Haters seem to be hyperfixated on writing, while it is actually above average when compared to other shounens like Seven Deadly Sins. Comedy is properly separated from serous moments, there are some stakes and struggles, etc.
If you take closer looks, you'll notice that all those haters can't even elaborate their opinions or are just desperately nitpicking to do so, which is all you need to know.

When people criticize Demon Slayer for the simplistic story, I feel like that's the laziest copout of an excuse ever. Not everything needs One Piece levels of worldbuilding and lore. For a manga series like DS that's short and to the point, the story is good for what it is. As the title suggests, it's just a story about people killing demons....idk how much deeper you can get with a premise like that lol. It gets straight to the point, while giving us dope action sequences with stellar animation. And speaking of the animation, I find it laughable when people criticize DS for just being "carried by its animation." Who would have thought, a show that is part of an ANIMATED form of entertainment gets praise for having.....really good animation????? 😱😱😱😱😱 I swear DS has to be the only anime that gets hate because of GOOD animation 😂😂😂 I like DS but it's certainly not perfect by any stretch. There are  valid criticisms for it, like the comedy parts and over-narration during fights, but the hate I see is usually for the same lazy, copy-paste reasons that people love to regurgitate like mindless drones. And as others have said, people usually do this for attention, especially if you venture into the shithole that is anime Twitter. Jobless morons who just bitch about literally ANYTHING. "People going out of their way to hate a show just because other people like it" is basically the way of life for those anime fans, the sole purpose of their existence is to seek out things to hate on and shit on for even the most minor reason.

TL;DR: Story criticism is lazy, it's good for what it is + not everything needs to be One Piece level. "Carried by animation" makes no sense, why criticize an animated show for being praised for good animation. Valid criticisms exist but people copy-paste the same basic shit to hate on.

For what i could tell reading some of the most stupid reason or even reasonable reasons about people not liking Demon  Slayer, comes from the same point: 
People act like an anime that has the most outstanding animation right now, needs to be goated in every aspect. Its the same with Makoto Shinkai movies, the good animation makes people focus on everything else, its just crazy
Meanwhile bros been watching generic animes that can not even pull up two fights in a season without abusing static screens or reused footage and still can not come up with good characters/narrative

Just like you said, Kimetsu has a simple approach to the narrative, its not like its supposed to be a revolutionary storytelling anime, people don't demand that for animes that were supposed to do that, but want to demand in KnT, its just stupid

I totally agree with you except for the characters thing. This show literally has the worst trio of main characters I’ve seen in anime: tanjiro inosuke and zenitsu. The only likeable characters are some of the hashira tbh

I agree with you, the main is nothing special and I am totally fine it. I still like Inosuke though and some of the Hashiras are great. My favs are Tengen cause of his flashiness and Love Hashira because she is really sweet and the Stone Hashira cause he looks so badass.

This, or some people are just emotionally unstable, or kids, or all of above. I can't imagine any other type of people to waste their time and energy on hating so hard a cartoon and people who enjoy watching it.

Any rational and sane critique of pretty much any type of an anime is always appreciated. Demon Slayer is not an exception. Too bad that most of "critical views" on it are of pretty low quality (if they can be even called as such).

It ain't that bad, though. There are fanbases like Attack on Titan's one, where at some point most of haters were people who had been actively defending the franchise not that long before, lol.

Had to look up your criticism in this thread. I guess that's the one you are talking about. OK I don't think I will agree with all your points. I feel like the story is going pretty strong and s1 was setting up the story for all these fights. Demon slayer is literally a story about fighting demons and I am enjoying all these fights so it's not boring. The comedy doesn't bother me either. There is only like a couple of comedy scenes here and there per episode which is presented in a light hearted way which I love about this show. Zenitsu's screaming doesn't bother me one bit. There are plenty of characters out there that scream and shout. In fact these characters with exagerrated reactions is one of the reasons why I love anime in the first place. (Some comedy scenes are cringe though but I feel like they are extremely rare).
I also like tanjiro as a character. Yes he feels sympathy for demons cause they were once humans as well but at the same time he knows what he must do and he still goes on to behead them. I don't know why people hate him for being kind but not like him for actually doing his job and slaying demons. 
OK I am witnessing a lot more monologues but it wasn't much noticeable until some people pointed it out. They don't use much monologue during the climax of the fight which is a good thing to though. Some things are unnecessary explained but other times it does have valuable information.
Also I don't know what you mean by complex. Are sword fights really supposed to be complex. How do you want them to be complex? Why do you want them to be complex? Breathing styles and blood demon art are all good enough to understand and the fights are greatly choreographed. That's more then enough for the fights to be enjoyable. 
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

When it comes to story yeah it's mid and has tons of tropes. but what I don't think people will realize is that not every story has to be complex. take one look at my profile and you'll see that I love my complex shows. and I do prefer an in depth unique story. but sometimes I just want to sit down and watch something fun. the story is nothing mind blowing true but I don't think a in depth story would help the anime. I think it has the perfect amount of depth to where you still can talk about all the small details, without being so much that you need a hour long video to explain everything. and besides I don't think these attention seekers realize that while story is probably the most important thing it's not the only thing. and especially to newer audiences, just the gorgeous animation and fun characters are enough to say it's a fine show. overall while demon slayer is far from my favorite show, I despise when people hate on a show for no reason. if you wanna say the stories mid, fine I won't disagree but saying the show is trash is just attention seeking.

Did you find my critisism unreasonable? I am curious thats why I am asking.
Had to look up your criticism in this thread. I guess that's the one you are talking about. OK I don't think I will agree with all your points. I feel like the story is going pretty strong and s1 was setting up the story for all these fights. Demon slayer is literally a story about fighting demons and I am enjoying all these fights so it's not boring. The comedy doesn't bother me either. There is only like a couple of comedy scenes here and there per episode which is presented in a light hearted way which I love about this show. Zenitsu's screaming doesn't bother me one bit. There are plenty of characters out there that scream and shout. In fact these characters with exagerrated reactions is one of the reasons why I love anime in the first place. (Some comedy scenes are cringe though but I feel like they are extremely rare).
I also like tanjiro as a character. Yes he feels sympathy for demons cause they were once humans as well but at the same time he knows what he must do and he still goes on to behead them. I don't know why people hate him for being kind but not like him for actually doing his job and slaying demons.

ty for your answer. On one point you misunderstood me. I didnt say I want the fight to be complex, they are good and enjoyable as they are. I said that the overuse of narration is not needed, BECAUSE the fights are simple and everyone understands whats going on. Otherwise I respect your opinion.

Oh OK thanks for clarifying. Yes I do agree with it to some extent.

Come on man every popular show gets hate for being popular. Kny is just like the biggest anime right now along with aot so of course it will get hate (Most of which is completely unreasonable).

Did you find my critisism unreasonable? I am curious thats why I am asking.

Almost all criticism regarding writing and supposed plot holes are just result of not paying attention to what happens on screen or applying common sense.
The rest is complying about subjective things like character's morals and desperate nitpicking in order to validate bad takes.
