I don't think anything can compare to Torikoa absurd rush which was goddamn amazing compared to this which just feels like it's just suffering from a lack of build up.

Mighty Dicktron posted:I feel like Demon Slayer has been the overall realtime fastest I went from "oh hey this is pretty good!" to "well, I think I'm done reading this" with any shonen series with how this is going. Granted, it's well into its life cycle and when it's almost done, so I guess good work on that? I think it's still pretty good and am enjoying it. So you do you I guess.

The best chance they have of victory is take out Nakime, which should put everyone back on better terrain and allow the sun to come in.

Oh absolutely Hes every bit the slimy piece of poo poo filth of humanity and essentially lucked into incredible power, he even hosed himself out of immortality by being such a short-sighted paranoiac. Muzan is the antithesis to the main cast in nearly every single way. And unlike most other demons he is utterly beyond pity.

theGrooseofLegend posted:I love how petty Muzan is He takes him doing what he wants as a given, and expects everyone else to conform. Like an earthquake or a hurricane, him killing people is basically an act of God; grief over your loss is expected, but anger over it happening is irrational and immature, as far as he sees it. He is a very repugnant person.

It's also really great because it shows how his brain just doesn't work like anyone else's. It's more than just not feeling anything about killing, he's entirely incapable of understanding why others do, and in fact, considers letting them live as something they should be happy about. He genuinely sees not only his actions, but also his expected reactions for those, as normal, and anything that deviates from those as abnormal. His morality is incredibly hosed up in ways that are extremely unsettling.

To a degree, comparing Muzan to a natural disaster isn't inaccurate.

I don't know if it was in this here thread or in the anime one, but I recall how the comparison to Yoshikage Kira popped up, and, while they're two very different types of repugnant monsters, I can't help but to think back on that comparison.

I was actually thinking of guys like Dio and/or Doflamingo, but Kira works better. The differences I'd say is that Kira has moments of...madness. Like you see him and you can tell that mentally he's REALLY hosed up like legit crazy person unwell and with Dio and Doffy being obviously different coming from radically broken and hosed up childhoods. With Muzan, he LITERALLY seems all there. No insanity, no broken childhood(God I hope they don't try to do this), just an evil, petty, monstrous man who feels entitled to Godhood and sees absolutely nothing with an of the horrific things he does and even expects thanks for sparing some people. Edit: A big possibility in the comparison might be their dressing styles.

Yeah. One thing that I liked is the explanation I read in some analysis piece (or probably the JoJopedia? Can't super recall rn) that Kira himself knows that what he's doing is not right, but sees it more like how you or me would see like a bad habit (chain-smoking, overeating, toilet-seat arrangements, you name it) in that he just needs to stop doing it and he'll be fine/"back in the wagon" again. Muzan is more monstrous, but when Tanjirou first encounters him, he seems perfectly capable of just playing this "upstanding citizen" persona he has as Tsukihito so that the boy would leave him and his "family" alone. Also, like Kira, he seems to have a problem in dealing with his anger.

i'm very sad that we're done with muzan the fashion plate i wanted to see him fight in a sharp outfit while keeping his clothes immaculate, alternately clearly not caring about them at all we never got like a *fight* from anyone against pre-powered up muzan where he was pushed at all, right?

Take those drunks he ran into. While one of them insulted and bothered him, he was still planning on just walking by until one of them triggered his sore spot namely saying he looked near death.

I doubt we're getting any kind of sob story for Muzan. We already know his backstory - a debilitating, fatal illness that, through a complete miracle of a doctor, was cured to the point of making him immortal and incredibly powerful with only one slight caveat that was, frankly, an incredibly cheap cost for what he gained in being unable to go into the sun again. And he decided that wasn't good enough. And here we are. His pettiness is incredible.

I haven't read all the material between the anime and where the manga is now yet, but if Muzan had access to a doctor during the Heian era, he was probably a bit of a fancy lad, right?

A "Muzan is a dick" point that's only clear now that we've seen what other demons do to their victims: he didn't even kill Tanjirou's family for food, he just murdered a random cottage full of children, turned one and hosed off.

Given that Muzan seems pretty deliberate about what he does I wonder if we'll get some explanation as to what he was doing on Tanjirou's mountain, or if it'll just be a "I don't even know who you are" moment.

Muzan being the lovely paranoid piece of poo poo he is killed the doctor before he could complete the second part, and before he realized the medicine was working even. Muzan was also an Ubuyashiki, he would have presumably wanted for nothing. This is all on him. And yeah it would be poo poo to give him a redemption scene. Maybe a damnation scene with everyone who he turned into demons pulling him down into hell.

I predict that Muzan escapes the labyrinth after a brief fight because, much like how Kars had to get the Stone of Aja, Muzan has to get ahold of Nezuko during the grand finale.

Spoilers dropping. Tanjirou loses an eye. Yushiro mind hacks the Biwa Woman to think the love and snake pillars are dead. He makes her teleport the two directly to Muzan, then starts to bend the infinite fortress- presumably to spit everyone out into the real world again.
