So anime only people what are your theories on Muzan.

Not much to theorize on yet but it's interesting that he's very obviously able to go at the very least hours without chowing down on whoever is in sight. I wonder if it's because he's an even more picky eater than the demon Tanjiro killed in the first half, or because he's just been around forever and attained a high level of self-control, or some combination of the two.

The only other demon we've seen so far that hasn't gone nuts and just constantly been on the hunt for the next meal is Nezuko, and doesn't that seem interesting?

Muzan being able to blend into society at this level also means he presents a pretty unique challenge to demon slayers just in his environment. Most of their skillset seems to be centered around taking out whacked out super cannibals out on the rural fringe or in dark alleys. where there aren't a ton of people around.

You know what else was weird was that while there was a ton of blood, nobody in Tanjiros family appeared to have been eaten if I recall correctly?

At the time I assumed they were just avoiding going overboard with gore but now I wonder if it was intentional.

All the anime greats get investigated for tax evasion. It's tradition! :v:

You guys should have a better grasp of what Muzan is like now.

He's a dick!

Muzan is super fast, can turn people to berserk cannibal killers with one fingernail scratch, and is in the middle of a dense human population. He's basically a gun put to the head of everyone in Tokyo. Genuinely not sure what the right move would be even if you DO find him again.

Yeah the back half of this one felt like a lot of stretching so that they could end on a specific moment.

You can see Tanjiro start to think of Inosuke as a stupid little brother in real time and it's great

Yeah Tanjiro's sword and half his skeleton are broken (not that that seems to slow him down much).

I wonder if they're due a promotion because of the whole not getting slaughtered like the rest of the chumps thing?

I'm not sure how half the slayers that went on the mountain made it through selection.

Inosuke needs the ability to call in and control about 30-50 feral hogs.

Whenever Zenitsu isn't on screen the other characters should be asking each other "Where's Zenitsu?"

But this is the 1910s, personal automatic weapons are just becoming a thing in WWI Europe. Where's anyone supposed to get one in Japan?

I didn't read the manga arcs that's before the Entertainment District arc. Did the anime add or expand scenes for those previous arc?

Aside for one episode for Infinity train, no. Its been a pretty 1:1 adaptation.

Anyone can become a demon it's just Muzan will melt you if he tries to put too many of his cells in you at once. It's why he can't churn out like 50 upper moon tier demons or whatever. Normally he's the only one that can make demons.
