I like Zenitsu because if Tanjiro came upon a demon with like some bizarre deformity and acid for blood he'd be like "Oh, poor thing, a life time of torment turned him into this monster... I'll hug him!" where as Zenitsu will rightly yell "You want me to fight this? Really? It has acid for blood you know that, right? I'm supposed to cut it but if it bleeds I'll die? What the gently caress?" ad infinitum like I would do.

Zenitsu would immediately run screaming from the xenomorph and you know it

thats exactly why he rules, he's the only sane character around. he just wants to not die a horrible death and get some anime tiddies.

hell if he were alive today he'd have an account.

i dunno if you're only basing that on the show but i didn't think he was annoying as words in a bubble. the screeching though, yeah.

zenitsu's reactions are about as sane and reasonable as tanjiro's inhuman magnanimity imo

it's just that being a screeching coward isn't generally considered admirable, aspirational etc

iirc, no. the last episode should just be setup for the next season

show's been slow enough that it's gonna end in a weird spot. I figured at the start that the next arc would be where it leaves off

e: like there's a train coming up soon in the manga but if the show actually ends on 26 then there's no way they get through the whole thing in 1 episode at the rate they've been going. even a faster paced show couldn't pull that whole thing off in one episode

No. It will be good content though. I at least think it's pretty cool.

The only problem I have with the younger butterfly girl is that they are telegraphing "future Tanjiro love interest" slightly too hard.

Don't worry there's no time for love when there's demons to hunt. Also, this the rare shonen where is no contrived LI.

I guess it's because of the economical costs of keeping that level of animation, because I can't see why otherwise.

Probably the best part of the plot developments is Muzan literally just rolling up a mook division because they aren't getting results. Who else has ever done that?

also Train movie makes enough sense to me since it's a thing they can actually reasonably fit into a movie runtime

everything else is too long, though i'd hope they jump from the movie to an S2 of the next two big arcs

I mean, it seems like a no-brainer. Maybe it'll become their "thing" after the F/SN: Heaven's Feel trilogy is done?

I read the manga too, but please keep spoilers to a minimum, 'k?

No I know but since Fabricated is the OP for the manga thread, I just wanted to pre-empt. Maybe it was a little bit uptight on my end since Fab has been a good goon, so maybe I need to knock it off. :sweatdrop:

It's cool not everyone has seen the ep yet.

The next arc being a movie kinda puts how much they stretched this recovery arc into context.
