Inosuke uses the Beast Breathing techniques.
If I remember correctly, that style has several forms. His sonar was the 7th.
But she was okay with Tanjiro protecting her demon sister unlike some of the other cunts.
Interestingly, from what I can see - all it takes to be a Hashira is to kill a Top 12 demon. There are no set number of pillars, and there's no guarantee that each Breath school gets represented. Like... there's no Lightning user there for example.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Seriously, if it wasn't for the last scene, I'd say he's the bad guy in disguise. Maybe his twin brother? Who knows.
I agree about looking forward to Innosuke's growth. Brute force used to be his *thing*, but that completely shattered. He will need to find a new forte.
Also I'm starting to fall for Shinobu (bug girl). But I also hate her for her extreme pragmatism from earlier episodes. I guess some s/m would be fine 🤷*♀️
At this point it should be pretty much a guarantee they're looking to doing a second series on this right? It's like we're now entering the meat of the story.
Episode 24:
I gotta say it: I think this anime is on its way to earn its seat next to the big shounen series. This training episode was interesting and fun, and we even learned other characters better to know.
Zenitsu's scenes had me laugh out loud xD The other two almost dying from the training, then he jumps in and enjoys it like heaven
Is the anime continuing or is 25/26 the end?
As far as I know it's currently planned for 26 episodes. I have heard no news of any greenlit sequels.
I'm actually hoping that the other two are doing their own secret training by sulking off as well. Well.. mostly Inosuke anyway. It's not really in character for Zenitsu to train unless it's either life/death or girls.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Personally, I hate with all my being when this show tries to be lighthearted and funny... I think it's a terrible combination and ruins any momentum the series might have going for it.
This will surely end at episode 26, but I'm quite certain it'll get another season/series even if not announced yet. But as always, who knows.
Zenitsu's secret training should simply consist of 'Try to grab me. You can grab me wherever you want'. Watch him become a Hashira in no time.
It sucks that so many romantic interests have already been established. Would have loved Zenitsu X Shinobu
Who will be the MC's love interest? The Hashira or the Tsuguko?
Peace.
Kanao seems to fit better in terms of being from the same generation.
But who are we kidding. Tanjiro will be a siscon through and through.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Zenitsu is the best thing about this show (I think the humor is fine).
I can't stand Zenitsu. Some of the gags with him are good, but his whole deal is "He's really annoying and won't stfu." Which means his character is...actually really annoying and he won't stfu.
I think the moments of levity are pretty critical for the series. They're deliberate breaks in the tension to bring down the direness of series as a whole. There's nothing wrong with series that go whole grim the whole way, but without the breaks, the importance of each plot segment with action or drama aren't as effective. It ends up being overwhelming, and all starts to blur. What's one dire or stressful moment in a sea of them and nothing else?
Especially when you come off of a moment like episode 19/20, and then again with the near execution of Nezuko.
You also can't maintain momentum in a series that legitimately recognizes that regular humans would need months to recover from injuries as severe as what the lead trio is receiving. The only one who can quick-heal is Nezuko.
It's not "different", it's basically the same in Fairy Tail etc.There's a difference between having moments of levity and what Kimetsu does.
The difference is that Kimetsu goes into much darker territory, so the contrast is huge.
So basically, the swing is so huge that it starts to feel out of place.
If I remember correctly, during the drum-demon arc, there was one such scene that felt completely out of place.
They literally saw someone dying a few minutes earlier and started being silly because of something.
In other shows, you'd see the MC getting beaten into a pulp and then all of a sudden help is coming, but that one dude who helps MC is also his rival and starts making fun of him because he is so weak and they start arguing infront of the enemy etc.
It's not even remotely as dramatic as when you have flesh eating demons lurking around that brutally rip you apart for fun.
I dunno, this anime has been like that from the beginning, so ... 🤷*♀️
My only gripe is the whining from the blond dood. Sure he can whine, just dial it down by half and we're good.
Peace.
