This felt like an episode that 'had to be done', but didn't need to be seen. Oh well. Until next week.

This arc is a lot more boring than I expected it to be.
And those grunts who made it up to the Stone Hashira are presumably able to land a blow on Snake and keep up with Wind etc, which feels strange given how lacking in spirit they seem to all be.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Is that how the training works? All this time I thought only Tanjiro is doing it in sequence, and the others are just assigned to whatever hashira they needed the most or has the capacity to take on more trainees.
Peace.
I assumed it was linear because if you can't do physicality then you're not going to make it through the others etc.
That said, it was never specified.

I thought the same, but Buff's posting makes sense, too.Originally Posted by shinta|hikari

Next week is the last episode? WTF kind of season is that?!
I guess this really was just a training arc.
Not sure we needed the 3 minute-music video of Muzan walking into the temple, lol.
The children of monk guy were hilariously terrible LOL. I mean, I won't say much about it, but it's kinda bs how these children were forcefully written to be so terrible when usually in this anime children are all lovely and nice. But here ... one tells the demon where the rest is and lets him in, the others forsaken the monk, and the surviving little shit makes a false-accusation. It was unintentionally funny.
As for the plot ... I REALLY hope the final part will be a movie. No need to stretch it out any further. Make it one 2 hour insane fighting movie.

Like the shitty train kids that were gonna kill everyone in their sleep so they could live in a fantasy world?
No idea what you mean

I...guess go rewatch the train arc? Where that was a thing that happened.

Well that was certainly a climax!
Did we just segway directly into the final arc?
Oh fuck! The next arc is just going to be THREE movies?!
I wonder if I wait long enough, they'll just turn it into a regular arc, like they did with Mugen Train.
Maybe, but Heaven's Feel turned out fine.

Eh :/
While I'm glad the pacing is going up, lots of things I didn't like here:
- why now? Why did Muzan attack the Hashira-master now and not a long time ago? Nezuko has nothing to do with the Hashira, he couldn't have been waiting for such a specific thing to happen.
- Why did monk-hashira stop attacking and let Muzan fully regenerate? Just keep slashing his body so he cannot counterattack.
- how dumb are the Hashira to ALL attack together? Right after monk-Hashira told them that Muzan cannot be killed. Even without the dimension flipping, their group attack would have been more likely to cause confusion among themselves and give Muzan some sort of chance.
- they're all super lucky that Muzan is so nice and made gravity work like a gravity elevator inside his dimension. Imagine if there were all simply falling and ... dying. lulz
- Hashira-leaders speech to Muzan was super dull. If I were Muzan, I wouldn't have been as patient, lol.
- bombing his wife and daughters with himself. I guess Ging is no longer the worst dad in anime.
At least I'm glad the final arc is being made into 3 movies. Although one movie should have been enough.

You know what would be funny? If Nezuko's sunlight immunity was directly tied to her never eating a human. So even if Muzan DID capture her, he STILL wasn't able to make himself immune.
He couldn't find him? The eyeball swarms seems to be a NEW power of lute demon's. And that's how he located everyone.
So which is it? Do you want them to attack non-stop so he can't regenerate, or not?
Depends how long the arc is. Muzan + 3 Uppers vs.the entire Slayer Corps. is some "4th Ninja War" shit. Imagine trying to do that arc in 1 movie.

Non-stop.
Instead they went for a single big simultaneous attack, leaving them open to a counter attack, and even if that hadn't happened, they'd get in each others way and they probably would have stopped after their big attack, instead of fighting strategically, letting the others rest while 1 or 2 of them keep smashing in Muzan's body.
It was 100% dumb emotional attacking instead of strategy. Hashira should know better.

It being an emotional attack is true. It's not coordinated. They haven't been involved in the plan to do so.
The number of effective attackers depends on Muzan's radius of control. If Muzan is a regular human with human reach, then you can probably put three or four humans max around him before they get in each other's way during a simultaneous attack. If his radius of control is larger because of demon powers, then you can move Hashiras around.
A converging attack isn't a bad idea right from the start however, because the first thing that Muzan should want to do is escape (if he did not have a trapdoor planned). If you converge from all over, it makes escape difficult.
This episode got me pretty pumped. I'm happy to see Tamayo as well. She's been the only one so far with a "smart" approach.

I'll give it time to do so, but if Kimetsu doesn't explain why this power to autotarget/cast trap doors under all demon slayer corps members into the pocket dimension wasn't used previously or to pick off demon hunters this whole time, my eyes will be a rollin' mightily.
That Muzan exchange was slow and not near interesting enough to take 15 minutes.
They've had two bangers of seasons in a row (counting mugen), and now two stinkers; the final movies will determine Kimetsu's legacy; but as they say... "hype is a hell of a drug".
They never used it because it was supposed to be a hidden palace of refuge. Muzan's goal ultimately was to have immortality. Destroying the demon slayers would help, but ultimately it probably doesn't bother him all that much. Like he says, he's got time.
The Biwa demon also stays in the castle, so if they got a Hashira in there and killed her then that's a huge asset lost to Muzan without much gain. Killing a Hashira or two doesn't mean much to him.
Now. Now that Nezuko is sun-resistant, Muzan has something to play for. Demon Slayers are hiding her, so he's now out to wipe them out in order to get to her. When he had the other demons out and about to infect people + hopefully find/develop into a cure, the castle was mostly empty.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
THat's why he's bringing ALL the demon slayers there now, makes sense /s.
He could just teleported important assets to outside Japan. Just get Biwa to Europe where there's no Hashira.
