I don't honestly get the hate/hype train about this anime but also I don't care about it. There are profiles with mean score around 2 or 3 hating everything in their way. It's kinda interesting to watch 4th season of something you don't like to just hate it. Well, that's to this topic.
Regarding Swordsmith Village Arc, I had my doubts. It's true that Demon Slayer has simple story and also it keeps its standard for so long, so I was a bit worried that his season will be bad, repetetive and maybe that I will drop it to just don't remember bad part. However that's not the case.
Story 9/10 - again as every DS season, story is simple yet fancy, with a point, with some background and we also managed to get know something from main characters background. Not every anime needs to have 67125438 deaths, twists and cool spells every damn episode. That's part of the reason why I do like DS as it's really chill anime, yet fancy.
Animation/art 10/10 - here I think that animators did maybe even better job than in last season. Those details were truly amazing and enjoyable.
Sound effects and music 10/10 - again perfect work, perfect sync.
Character development 10/10 - this season has some twists around some characters and they are well done. And there is finally background about Muzan and his history, which is tasty.
Overall I think this season is worth your time if you like DS and it's just another season of chill anime. Very nice, very chilling, eat that rating and give us some more.
