LOL, facts!
The problem with Muichiro's fight was that it didn't feel like he was the strong one - it just felt like Vase was weak. The backstory conveyed that:
-he was a nice guy,
- that he was a descendant,
- and that he could chop up a demon with no training (and with no memory to show us how it was done).
- trained like mad due to his vengence.
The physical feats here were that:
- he escaped the water prison (though unimpressive since he got help),
- that he could dodge every attack afterwards
- cut 10'000 fish or whatever it was
- disappear with his mist attack and cut Vase's neck.
The impressiveness of the speed or technique hasn't really been conveyed through the anime/story. It's partly due to the fact that we're so used to seeing quick flurry of attacks in general that cutting up all these fish doesn't register as being impressive. It's another "amazingly quick sword", but seemingly nothing we haven't seen before. Logically yes, Muichiro's actions-per-minute was higher than anyone else's, but it didn't feel that way. Contrast this to every time Zenitsu busts out his move. He only does a few slashes, but it's amazing whenever he does it.
Muichiro's got a "oh, that's it?" response from me watching him. Maybe it's the lack of hype music or impressive visual effects. Kanroji got the hype music.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
This one got a "sympathetic" flashback! xD
I didn't quite like that Tanjiro's eardrums healed between last ep and this ep. That lack of continuity bothered me. Meanwhile, I did to back to check if Kanroji did in fact not have long socks during some flashback scenes, and indeed she did not.
- I guess I'll wait for the uncensored bluray-version. It was hilarious to what lengths the producers went to not show Kanroji's panties. So many unnatural angles, only to hide her panties. Come on, we're all human, what's so bad about showing panties when they physically should be visible? Nobody's demanding Aika-levels of panty shots ...To be fair, she was much more attractive in this episode than in any doujinshi that I had bothered to pay attention to. They even gave her the battle-damaged treatment and ripped her top button. The whole energy/VA/Poses/Music does it for me. Yuki Kajiura songs do that.Originally Posted by Darth
