This was a pretty boss episode as well.Sindai posted:Nezuko is a very good girl. The somehow understated soccer kick decapitation slayed me.

One thing that I thought was lowkey hilarious was the casting for this episode: You get Hikaru Midorikawa, one of the most easily-recognizable voice actors from the past 3 decades to voice a character that gets taken down with relative ease and bites the big bullet before the first half of the episode is done. Hopefully we get something similar soon.

Eh, if composers sticking to tropes too closely were such a serious hamper, I'm sure I'd have more bones to pick with someone like Taku Iwasaki or Maiko Iuchi. Kajiura does right by whichever series/movie she's working on most of the time, so it's cool.

Season 1 will probably pick up the pace once we get to meet the other two main characters.

Crackpot theory: Maybe Ufotable are trying to court Shueisha/Weekly Shounen Jump so that they can tackle more diverse future projects?

That does indeed go into spoiler territory for further developments into the manga, so please try to keep that in mind if you don't get an answer, okey-doke?

Same. The manga is great and all, but I've been honestly enjoying the anime on its own. Ufotable are loving knocking it out of the park with the adaptation so far.

The visual style top tier and a lot of fun, but the story is full of weird little missteps and things that doesn't make much sense, but the main protagonist and his sister are good characters with great character interactions and battles are great, but....

That was pretty much the best way to translate that part into the anime. Still pants-voidingly horrifying. Like I know Seki can do villains, but holy smokes did he absolutely sold the "You mean nothing to me, boy" feel the manga established.

It's like the scene in episode 2 where he won't take no for an answer when trying to build Nezuko's transportation basket. He's been offered a good, and dang it, he's gonna pay for it!

Goddamn I had my doubts, but Hiro Shimono was the perfect casting for Zenitsu.

Cao Ni Ma posted:Ufotable has fantastic sound direction. I went through the manga to see if Pig Assault's boar sound when he was breathing was there but nope, that and the beast snarl when he snaps his attacks were added by ufotable.  Also, while Hiro Shimono was an excellent fit for Zenitsu, I do believe that Yoshitsugu Matsuoka was perfect for Inosuke. Like, I know most people are gonna forever associate him with Kirito or Bell, but goddamn when he gets to do rowdy/insane voices is when he's at his absolute best.

Matsuoka was probably the best casting choice out of the main cast. I do feel that Hiro Shimono kinda gets Zenitsu across better, but that has its pros and cons. Aside from the kid who's voiced by Kengo Kawanishi (who's ok), every single pillar and the leader of the Demon Slaying Corps is a no-brainer of casting since they're all stupidly talented.

Slightly off-the-beaten-path thought/idea, but here it goes: Zenitsu kinda reminds me more of Aqua from KonoSuba than Mineta, Miroku or whoever, even if he does have elements of those types of characters. I think that's made him way more tolerable in my eyes.

The one thing I love about Zenitsu unconditionally is that it gave us the best early Tanjiro reaction face.

They all vary, but even the "oldest" is relatively young. And yeah, Tokito (small kid with long hair) is Nezuko's age.

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.

Oh Snapple! posted:Now that the show is over I want to mention that I will never forgive crunchy for not using PIG ASSAULT Like I know it's probably because it was originally a scanlation (is it on the official release? I dunno), but the idiom Inosuke uses (it's a yojijukugo/4-kanji idiom written something like 「猪突猛進」) is like a perfect encapsulation of Inosuke when we meet him, no matter what the translator decides to go with. Like that moment Dennis from The Refused screeched "CAN I SCREAM?!", or when Greg Puciato made his record debut with Dillinger Escape Plan after being with the band for almost 3 years using the most "gently caress the jeering naysayers" lyrics, or to bring it back into something anime-related, that moment when Levi first shows up and "Reluctant Heroes" start playing in Attack on Titan.

What? Pillar is perfectly acceptable/respectable. Hell, if it worked for the quartet of vampiric musclemen named after a mexican shredder, a new wave band, a pop duo and the proto cock-rock band, why wouldn't it work for the big badass top dogs fighting against them demons?

I swear I read/watched at some point that he actually considered becoming a pro-player through League of Legends before he started getting more significant parts at around 2012-2013, so this is pretty on point.

We're very likely to get the whole dang thing animated, tbh. Like Shueisha/WSJ would be loving daft to not capitalize on the popularity this got. I mean sure, this is just basically one big commercial for the manga, but I'm almost certain that manga sales skyrocketed from "Hey, this is selling pretty well!", to "HOLY DIVER, ROLLER, BUTCHER, BAKER, CANDLESTICK MAKER ALL FIVE OF 'EM OUT TO SEA, THIS IS SELLING LIKE HOTCAKES".
