The people who complain in these threads about flashbacks are never worth taking seriously since they also complain when things are implied instead of flashed back to. It would be impossible to tell the backgrounds of most of these characters without flashbacks considering half of them are centuries old and very few of them have a shared background since they all are only united by having been drafted into a military organization. Inosuke's mom is dead and he was a baby when she died, we could never find out what happened except through a flashback from the perspective of her killer.

I feel like it's a thing where the series has very good week to week pacing but it's in such a rush to move the story forward that we never get time to see these bits of characterization and they end up having to get filled in via flashback, in what feels like a retcon

Using his backstory's logic, all of them are.

Oh I get it. He lost the mask so we can see the Mark.

>topless Inoko running around everywhere
Yes please

In these past chapters, it has occurred to me that witnessing Inosuke without his boar mask, as beautiful as he may be, feels wrong and unsettling.

It may be because he doesn't frequently take it off, but unlike other characters whose face is hidden, Inosuke puts me at unease when he's not wearing his mask. As if that is not how it should be, as if I'm not suppose to see what I'm seeing.

I believe his face is beautiful, he is a very pretty guy, who makes me question my sexual orientation. His eyes are that of a beautiful girl, and so is the structure of his face. Capturing his beauty on paper doesn't come easy, I bet.

His hair are also very comforting, barely reaching shoulder level, they appear soft, like those of a pretty young lady.

It all seems wonderful, as long as its hidden below his boar mask, which appears as if it's purposely there to seal away that beautiful, mysterious gaze of his.

I still recall of a scene in a chapter where Inosuke peeked out of his mask, ever so slightly, to grab something to eat. I couldn't help but freeze myself for a second, and stare at his face, focused on the task of consuming the food that stood before him. That very face, felt as if it was a blessing, which no mere human like myself was allowed to experience.

In recent chapters, there's a lot of mask-less Inosuke, which creates a disturbing sensation which goes down my spine every time I see a panel representing him. Is this right? Should I look away? Should I keep reading as if nothing was happening?

How could I possibly pretend that his face didn't give me a feeling of discomfort. That was simply not possible. Panel after panel, he is there, as precious and graceful as ever, perhaps even more than usual.

To think that one day, in the near future, his face will be animated, makes me feel even more upset. If mere panels in the Manga have this overwhelming effect on me, what of a full-fledged Animation? How could anyone, anyone at all, withstand such a thing?

Since he's usually shirtless and wearing a mask I want fang looking marks around his abdomen that make his stomach look like an open mouth. Or at least something on his chest or stomach like the love mark was instead of the face.

inb4 UM2 can lower your body temperature with his ice ergo cancelling the Mark

I'm really hoping the anime places scenes like this and Zenitsu history with the other upper moon earlier. Feels kind of rushed when presented this way.

The mom flashback doesn't really make sense to have before now, though? There'd be no reason for Douma to recall these events prior to seeing Inosuke.

They actually predicted their fight way before it happened.

WHIIIIIRRRRRRRR

They fleshed out the scenes with kazumi getting beat up by his fiancee's dad and the other girl that the swamp demon took quite well. They were only one page in the manga together,so I think we should be ok .

I've noticed they've been adding some new scenes to make things flow better so I think there's no need to worry about it.

This man is the biggest villain in the manga. What was so hard about giving her the D.

Nobody will ever stop comparing the two now that they share the same voice actor

I get that Bakugo's development is meant to be a slow burn, but he was unbearable for the longest time. I think it's okay to have a quick change in heart like Genya if their original personality fucking sucks. Even then, Genya isn't anywhere near as bad because we don't see him often and Tanjiro never bends over to him.

A fetish I can appreciate.

They're both standard angry teen boys, but when you look at it, Genya is angry out of insecurity and a need to prove himself, while Bakugo is just a dick with a massive ego because he got told he was special his whole life and as a result has no regard for other people. There's more of a sympathetic edge with the former.

Artists?

I feel like this could have been excellent instead of just okay If it was more a seinen than shounen. Dial back the training (aside the initial one), more of a journey, etc.

I think the training as part of the journey is fine but the characterizations/ backstories shouldn't be highlighted in the middle of fights

The Inosuke and mother one is Twitter @az_ure

The Kamaboko is @kurowassan_3

It's the downside of being weekly manga. It might be better as monthly because the author has more time to plan.

Eh, I got annoyed way back at the start when they first started using the special moves, but I've come to accept the way they're presented is one of the best parts of the series. Really, the most outstanding things about the series are the most shounen-ish (the breath styles, the potato faces)

Anyone feel like it is an asspull the Ninja Pillar retired?

Also, his severed arm was laying nearby the rubble.

When he was partially healed by Nezuko, why didn't he tell his ninja wives to hurry and get his arm and see if Nezuko could "burn" his reconnected arm together again?

Because his wounds were from demon poison and demon attacks, so its possible he could have gotten back his arm and eyesight again if Nezuko just burned him long enough

The Martial Artist Moon was evenly matched against Flame Pillar and almost lost.

Why did he suddenly become so hax in the rematch?

You're asking too many questions for a shonen manga.

QT 3.14

It's because the afterlife possibly exists in this manga and not just hallucinations.

It seems dead people are allowed to talk to living people as they engage in near death situations.

Nezuko's fire didn't heal him, it burned off the Demon Blood technique which is poison in the form of Demon Blood.
The wounds are physical wounds.

The poison can be burned off, physical wounds don't get healed by burning.

>Anyone feel like it is an asspull the Ninja Pillar retired?
No, it's the opposite.Do you even understand what an asspull is?

>When he was partially healed by Nezuko
He wasn't.
>y didn't he tell his ninja wives to hurry and get his arm and see if Nezuko could "burn" his reconnected arm together again?
Because THAT would be an asspull.
>Because his wounds were from demon poison and demon attacks, so its possible he could have gotten back his arm and eyesight again if Nezuko just burned him long enough
No.

I expected they attempt sewing the arm back or did the guy cripple himself on purpose so headquarters could accept his resignation from the pillars?

I have no problem with the demons' entrance to the afterlife featuring their backstories. I think that's a nice little signature for the manga. I've only got a problem when flashbacks that are immediately important to the current events are introduced while those events are occurring.

>Anyone feel like it is an asspull the Ninja Pillar retired?
Do you even know what an "asspull" is?

>so its possible he could have gotten back his arm and eyesight again if Nezuko just burned him long enough
Well if Nezuko's ability is Crazy Diamond or Gold Experience it would work. But nope her ability can't magically heal everything.

She wasn't very smart as a pillar.

If poison doesn't work, why continue using it.

Why not use delay tactics and wait for backup?

There are communication crows flying everywhere so someone should have eventually caught up to Shinobu and help her double team

I don't think they have the modern medical knowledge and ability to do such a complicated surgery.

Depending if it is Shintoism or Buddhism, Hell is temporary depending on the religion.

According to some Buddhist sects, hell is just temporary but it takes a very long, long time to get out of Hell and reincarnate again.

Shinto on the other hand is a bit more equal. Good and Bad people end up in the same place. Even dead or killed Gods end up in the same underworld. Ancestor worship is also common in Shinto and famous dead ancestors can even become deified like certain Japanese princes or emperors.

They might have during the Sengoku Period considering that extremely complex robot.

It takes a person knowing everything about the human body to create a robot like that.

Attached: 71064121_p13.jpg (965x900, 185K)

Well in Buddhism even when you reincarnated most of the time bad karma still follow you so you still have to suffer from your bad deed even when you got out of hell.

Full body or boar tusks on cheeks

You can see Kaigaku's legs earlier in the mango when Z was talking with him.

I don't understand how police didn't immediately catch this murderer.

The doctor should have been a famous doctor.

Doctors usually have apprentices or a stable customer base.

Someone should have eventually traced his last whereabouts to his final patient/customer.

How did he even hide the body? This was a bedridden person who never stepped outside the house before.

It's not like you needed a lot of evidence to convict someone in ancient Japan. Just being the last person somebody met was enough to cast suspicion on you.

>Evenly matched

>Delay tactics against an upper moon demon in an enclosed room in /his/ territory
You're fuckin delusional bro, she had to fight or die and it was a matter of pride too, nothing to do with 'smarts'.

Akaza was not even trying, he was sure thst he could kill rengoku at any time.
But he was overconfident, and got almost killed by rengoku's attack.
If he fought the entire time serious he would have killed rengoku in no time

The kind of technology and understanding needed to reattach an entire limb is very advanced, the robot, as complex as it was, used pretty basic wood and metal gears. Also, most importantly, they were made by the very specialized blacksmiths, not doctors.

Theme wise, it also makes more sense to have such major wounds permanent to show that humans are fragile, in this series, only demons can easily heal from major wounds.

It can depend on the sect to be honest.

In Buddhism, some former bandits who committed kidnapping and murder as part of their lifelong career got redeemed.

For example, Aṅgulimāla

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aṅgulimāla

>Aṅgulimāla (Pāli language; lit. 'finger necklace')[1][2] is an important figure in Buddhism, particularly within the Theravāda tradition. Depicted as a ruthless brigand who completely transforms after a conversion to Buddhism, he is seen as the example par excellence of the redemptive power of the Buddha's teaching and the Buddha's skill as a teacher. Aṅgulimāla is seen by Buddhists as the "patron saint" of childbirth and is associated with fertility in South and Southeast Asia.

>Aṅgulimāla's story can be found in numerous sources in Pāli, Sanskrit, Tibetan and Chinese. Aṅgulimāla is born Ahiṃsaka. He grows up as an intelligent young man in Sāvatthī, and during his studies becomes the favorite student of his teacher. However, out of jealousy, fellow students set him up against his teacher. In an attempt to get rid of Aṅgūlimāla, the teacher sends him on a deadly mission to find a thousand human fingers to complete his studies. Trying to accomplish this mission, Aṅgulimāla becomes a cruel brigand, killing many and causing entire villages to emigrate. Eventually, this causes the king to send an army to catch the killer. Meanwhile, Aṅgulimāla's mother attempts to interfere, almost causing her to be killed by her son as well. The Buddha manages to prevent this, however, and uses his power and teachings to bring Aṅgulimāla to the right path. Aṅgulimāla becomes a follower of the Buddha, and to the surprise of the king and others, becomes a monk under his guidance. Villagers are still angry with Aṅgulimāla, but this is improved somewhat when Aṅgulimāla helps a mother with childbirth through an act of truth.

This is just one famous murderer though. I'm sure there are others

Kaigaku's backstory was shown in the pillar training arc as well. He was the kid that betrayed Himejima's temple and blew out the wisteria incense.

Literally my only problem with this series is the poorly paced information through flashbacks. Flashbacks relevant to what's happening exactly while that thing is happening give off an impression of the story being made up as it's going along, instead of being foreshadowed properly. So many things, such as the "see-through world", or Kaigaku becoming a demon and an Upper Moon, could have been set up earlier and made for a more satisfying payoff, but instead they are literally only introduced the moment they're needed. It's a shame because everything about this series, characterization, fights, etc, is otherwise great, but I hate this whole "spur of the moment" way of writing that other fast-paced manga series do. Sometimes I'd rather a manga slow down if it can actually set up its elements in a more believable manner.

Muzan is a shapeshifter

Rengoku also had to focus on not only beating Akaza but also making sure he didn't kill Inosuke and Tanjirou, which is why he said pillars are the shield of his underlings and the whole backstory with his mother telling him to protect the weak.

Maybe I'm reaching but I feel like the "see through world" thing was implied when tanjirou went nuclear vs daki.Had the same "everything is moving slow" thing going on, except the 2nd time he was breathing.I could be wrong though.

Can anyone tell me why the Hunter Org leader had to also involve both his wife and 2 daughters in his suicide attack?

I know this is Japan and this could have been some Bushido thing from his wife to accompany him in death but why also involve his 2 daughters?

Why not have all his children survive? Were the 2 children even aware of their dad's suicide plan? I am struggling to think of any good reason why he let his 2 daughters die with him because the surviving children would have been less sad if at least their 2 older sisters still survived.

I just feels like it insults every dead parent in this story because all these parents sacrificed their lives to let their children continue surviving and living on yet the Hunter Organization Leader just killed his 2 healthy children like that in his suicide attack.

>give off an impression of the story being made up as it's going along, instead of being foreshadowed properly.
tbf, that's because most weekly series are

Akaza also grew to have some twisted form of respect for Rengoku, Akaza wanted him to become a demon so he would have a strong opponent to fight, mangling Rengoku was not his intention.

Dude you're looking way too into it. It you really want an answer, it was probably for a false sense of security to lure Muzan into thinking there was nothing up his sleeve. Pretty sure they knew what was gonna happen too since the other kids didn't seem super surprised by it and were already prepared.

To make sure Muzan is completely unaware of the plan.
I'm sure the two older sisters understood what they were doing. They are the older sisters so they also have a responsibility to protect their younger sisters and brother.

oh I know about this one. well he's kinda a special case cause he reach enlightenment and bypass the whole circle of life thing. But for normal human we are not that lucky especially if you were born after Buddha's lifetime. And you still have to suffer anyway even Buddha himself suffer from food poisoning before death because of his past karma.

Overall I think the concept of redemption is more about suffer from your own actions. No one can escape from karma.

A more realistic action would be to shout to your children to run away.

If anything, Muzan seeing the children continue to normally play would be an unusual reaction.

To get off Muzan off guard, Muzan is a heartless bastard that would kill anyone to further his plans, but even he would assume a presumably good human would do anything of sorts, Muzan himself says he didn't expect that after it happened.

>A more realistic action would be to shout to your children to run away.
Realistic in what sense? That's your take, in past history there are feudal lords that pretty much massacred their entire families once some kind of revolution happened and they knew they would get tortured by the angry masses, might as well kill all your family yourself, that's the same resolve and principle here.

Muzan may have just killed them too though.

In Buddha's lifetime, there weren't that many Buddhas. Like I mentioned, depending on the sect, there are people who choose to remain buddha-like guardians until every human can reach enlightenment so yeah.

I wonder if Buddha. himself, predicted how big his religion would get or how each region in the world could create new interpretations.

The manga has noted that the Ubuyashiki head has some sort of future sight ability, he would have taken into consideration how Muzan would act. Muzan is also a complete monster, telling the children to run would only cause them to panic before he kills them. They were all prepared to do what needed to be done.

Attached: R1.png (959x1400, 1.09M)

Does Muzan really have any reason to think it would be? Dude is unusual in itself and he knew the dudes family wasn't normal to begin with, not to mention he was confident he had the upper hand to begin with. Whether he told the kids to live or not was inconsequential to what he wanted to do so he probably didn't think much of it.

Also note that at the time, the house only had four people, Ubuyashiki, his wife and his two children.
Only those who needed to be there was actually there. Muzan actually took his focus away from Ubuyashiki for a moment to survey the children and gave more time for the talk to stretch out.

Buddha as a historical figure/real person who's burn in India might not but Buddha as "the Lord Buddha" in the mind of believer probably could. l mean many of them see him as know all see all so just seeing the future is not that hard.

Exactly this. The demon flashbacks as they’re dying are perfectly fine. It’s the unnecessary flashbacks that are a problem. Zenitsu explaining the Breath of Thunder to Tanjirou, for example, or Inosuke’s recent flashbacks about Shinobu. These are things that should’ve been included in the story earlier, not retroactively explained at the last moment.

Continuing on from that, there’s plenty of other things that would’ve greatly benefited from have some foreshadowing earlier as well. As a current example, almost everything involving Douma this arc has come out of left field. Considering that we’ve known about Kanae and Inosuke’s mum’s deaths since the Spider Arc there really should have been some hints and build up towards this. Now it’s all just being told to us at the last moment before Douma’s rushed death, that will probably involve another retroactive explanation of Shinobu and Kanao’s conversation. I think in general Gotouge’s writing is pretty good but this has gotta be one the biggest issues for me.

I just wanna see more of this pretty lady.

The thunder breath being explained completely feels like a "Tanjirou needs to pull out a suitably dramatic way to win here, let's make something up" type of moment. That's just kind of how fight storytelling goes. It is annoying though, that the training sequences usually never add up to anything and instead a new technique is invented that could have been part of the training.

>two fairly lengthy training arcs that could have been used to actually foreshadow the techniques Tanjiro would conveniently use in the next
It bothers me.

Stop reading shounen manga Touma.

So I just started reading this manga and noticed there is a gaiden.
Should I read it when Im up to date with the manga or is there a better moment to read it?

She seems to be in a very good mood recently.

It's just a side story involving Tomioka. You can read it after reading chapter 45

Koyo is a girl? Cute.
Yeah I know I’m late to this.

Do you think Natsuki will befriend Wani like he did with Ishida?

All those other lower ranking demon hunters, what are they really good for in the end?

Yeah, more female shonen mangaka are always nice. I wish that somehow translated to more solid female characters - it's one of the reasons I appreciate Arakawa, she wrote a lot of really likable and diverse girls and kept a good gender balance with that in mind. But of course I know there's something about girls not selling in shonen. What few females exist in Kimetsu are great, though.

You have to read it before he dies against Akaza to get better context

Anyone wonder why they buried blacksmiths with their final swords?

Seems like it is a waste to just leave the swords in the burial mounds.

If I was a blacksmith and was murdered by a demon, I would prefer if my sword was still being used by an active demon hunter instead of rusting away on my grave.

Obviously, and if Douma didn't kill his human mother Inosuke would have just killed her himself. All Douma did was a mercy kill, he's a good boy.

wtf Inosuke was the real demon all along...

From what I have read, Koyoharu Gotouge seems to be a very autistic girl, but in a cute way.

Can't wait.

Reconnaissance, rescue and first aid, as some arcs ended with the fodder, sometimes guided by a Pillar, coming up to tend to Tanjiro & Co.

Zenitsu's fight was just a while ago and the fodder had their use in the aftermath.

Buddhism hell is a place to wash away your sins, so you gonna suffer, in order to hopefuly be cleasened for your next life till you become good/enlightned enough to reach Nirvana and never reincarnate again.

She'll die sending all her blood into Muzan after he overpowers the main cast, unknowingly causing his own downfall once she ignites him from within and allowing the heroes to finish him off

Everyone in this thread likely forgot, but there was a female Lower Moon who received Muzan's blood yet has disappeared from the story.

Why?

Anyone remember the time Gotouge radomly introduced a class system for the Slayers? There was like 10 intermediary levels below Pillars and Tanjiro, Zenitsu and Inosuke were like 3rd or 4th level from the bottom; what was the point of it? In practice there doesn't seem to be any focus on anything between a beginner and a full fledged Pillar, to the point the three boys are now casually hanging around and fighting alongside the Pillars themselves, gathering achievements that might well just kick them up to Pillars sooner or later.

Really? I recall Muzan just killed all Lower Moons after he had enough of them.

Gotouge deserves her own romcom

Attached: I267098.png (178x178, 33K)

Only the train demon survived the LM massaracre.

You’re not the only one who’s made that connection, it’s not a reach.

No he wasn’t.

That got introduced right after the final selection exam, and then never brought up again until inosuke made the symbol appear. It's a typical royal road type of thing, it just never ends up factoring into anything because the story moves too fast. Maybe there was an idea and wani never found a way to work it in, maybe it's just thrown in there to appease editors (there's been interviews where they've mentioned fondness for royal road stories)

But in the meeting room, all Lower Moons got killed but there was some crazy chick that received Muzan's blood and we don't know if she survived or not.

Your proof? Gotouge never repeats hairstyles, the kid's head was Kaigaku's all over.

Yes he was, he flashed back to it during his fight with zenitsu

This + the fact that they show Kaigaku's necklace in the scene of the kid blowing out the candles and also show Sayo+ other random kids from Himejima flashback in Kaigaku backstory about getting scolded for stealing money. Gotouge has foreshadowed a lot of stuff this way.

Are you fucking serious? That was Enmu, the dude who used dream magic and merged with the train. He's dead as fuck.

Bruh

Place your bets, what are the chances of a casual anime-only's being presented to Zenitsu and findind him utterly unlikeable, instead of manga readers who just elevated to him to be popular and have him achieve meme status?

That's the most random pair you can go with it and I love it.

I'm surprised by the team-up, but there were people theorizing before that Inosuke would fight against Douma one way or another, his mother running away and abandoning him for his safety made people raise an eyebrow as soon as Douma was a shown as a cult leader that focused on women followers.

I prefer MC ending with the Love Pillar.

MC likes cooking since he is the son of a coal miner/dealer.

Love Pillar loves eating

MC will have to master the Breath of Steel Cock to survive Mitsuri's vagina.

Lmaooo

I wonder how MC's father died. Always exercised. Lives healthy and ate healthy.

Could it be due to his coal occupation and breathing in coal fumes? But if that was the case, blacksmiths are in a more worker occupation hazard than a coal seller.

Blacksmiths breathe in way more metal fumes than a coal seller and historically, blacksmiths eyesight start degrading faster than normal people due to being in close contact with super bright sparks without any eye protection yet there are a lot of senior citizen blacksmiths in this manga.

Snek already learned that

Is the Hunter Organization Leader dying from actual biological disease or an actual curse.

I was surprised the author mentioned real diseases in this manga like tuberculosis.

When I saw the hunter organization leader's face and body for the first time, I was thinking it might be inherited syphilis but then we found out only the males get affected while the females and wives are spared.

So it's really a curse, huh?

>inb4 he is the Kaguya of kimetsu final boss

Is he also an ayylmao? Demons vs Aliens when.

You think this doctor would have common sense. If he wanted to experiment, should have chosen a small weak child and make sure nobody is hiding a knife under the blanket

That was probably an unintended side effect from a prototype medicine

Pumping Tanjirou's penis.

Better to end this series when it's at its peak than after it's been drained of all life, I guess.

Mitsuri is the only woman that caused Tanjiro to get a nosebleed that even Nezuko noticed the nose bleed.

A lot of guys seem to crush on her, though

Only way to extend this manga in my opinion is involving the Japanese Government or the Chinese Mainland.

Personally, I think it is weird Muzan didn't try to infiltrate royalty.

Japanese Emperors had personal royal court doctors since ancient times, especially from China.

You think court medical records would mention Blue Spider Lilies.

In the end, he only sneaked into an upper class family that had no children.

I wonder why? Is it because the Japanese royal court have even more Hax Exorcists or Swordsmen?

As for the Chinese Mainland, the reason I mentioned it was because there are famous Japanese monsters whose origins are from China. You know the famous kitsune? Well China's 9 tailed fox was a cruel empress and in some versions of the story, she escaped from China to other countries like Japan.

who do you think will get the next Cover?
Ubuyashiki or Douma?

It's not confirmed though. The only thing that gave a clue is a translation from the Thai version of the author comments page, so take it with a load of salt.

Maybe she will have some interview done while wearing a disguise.

Ancient times are really cruel.

How many people died in this story from a cold?

Is this what life was like without a doctor. People dying from simple colds?

Aside for Muzan once, the volume covers have mainly been the good guys.

Nice find. Gotouge's writing is more subtle than she is given credit for. If only she could slow down a bit.

It's nice that Tanjirou can appreciate beauty without being horny all the times.

A good potato!

I remember a rumor about someone supposedly saw her in a convention in French even before she wrote Kimetsu. The way female characters are drawn also makes me think the author is a woman.

There needs to be a reason for Tanjiru and his gen to become "pillars" of the Demon Hunters. Otherwise what's the point?

It was explicitly not named as originating from the Breath of Flowers style.

Her blade is clearly pink.

I want Giyu's half and half Haori as a t-shirt.

he defeated an idiot drunk on his newfound power, a skilled idiot but still.

>Her blade is clearly pink.
Kanao's is fully pink, Mitsuri's is pink and black.

Tanjirou beat UM3, and was recognized pillar-level by Giyuu, he's gonna be a pillar after all this is over.
Zenitsu solo'd UM6, and while he was clearly weaker than Gyu/Daki, he was still recognized at UM6 by Ubuyashiki's kids.
The only one that doesn't have a pillar feat yet is Inosuke.

How can one man look so angry yet so beautiful?

Yeah, I don’t this is the final arc because Tanjiro is already out after beating UM3, I think Rock and Wind are going to die fighting UM1, Inosuke and Kanao defeat UM2 somehow, Love and Snek and maybe Mist defeats UM4 and UM5.

After the recovery the pillars are going to be
>Tanjiro Sun Pillar
>Zenitsu Lightning Pillar
>Inosuke Beast Pillar
>Kanao Flower Pillar
>Tokito Mist Pillar
>Gyu Water Pillar
>maybe Genya as the Demon Pillar

Love and Snek survive but retire to raise a family.

I like that Rock’s design is similar to the cool black guy from Kengan where they’re obviously blind but it’s not brought up for half the series.

Volume 16 should already been published, there is more than enough chapters for it, even for Vol 17.

Vol 16 cover should be Ubuyashiki

Fucking speedreader. UM4 and UM5 were killed during the Swordsmith Village arc. We are literally down to the last 3 bosses of the evil organization and mook demons who are
>As strong as lower moons

Rock and Wind appear to be the strongest pillars, if they die fighting UM1 it’s sends a message of how strong he is.

Or next week, it they stick to 2 chapters per episode.

You’re the speedreader, Biwa demon is the new UM4 and the new UM5 wasn’t revelead yet.

>UM5
No flashback, no disintegration, no buy.

The cavalry has arrived!

UM5 is dead lol

>Cult
>Interesting motivations
>Creates demons so probably has his own team of demon followers
>Killed Kanae, Shinobu and Kanao hate him
>Killed Inosukes mom, he hates him.
>Akaza hates him.

And yet he gets resolved after this battle. Kinda a waste. I totally accept Akaza and Kokushibou not having their own arcs, since they always looked to me like stage bosses, but Douma really needed its own.

There is a new UM5 definitely, he might even be a Demon Slayer like Kaigaku.

Motherfucking former sunbro doesn't need his own arc?

She got steroided with Muzans blood. That never did any wonder for demons but it did turn her into a massive tactical operator.

muzan gave hnakime enough blood to become UM4 and kaigaku was UM6 so there must be a UM5 too

Tanjiro's sword will turn red once he masters the See-through world.

my bet is on Uzui's brother.

Speaking of which anons, its time to rank all the demon waifus.

1. Daki
2. Lower Moon Four (Oni Girl)
3. Susamaru (SIX ARMPITS)
4. FemMuzan
5. Nakime

Nezuko doesnt count.

That's my point. She was given blood by Muzan just to be useful here. She's not intended to be an immortal Upper Moon who maintains the ranks unchanged for centuries, she's just a tool who happens to be useful enough for this fight and can be discarded if Muzan wins or won't cost him anything if she dies. Which, by the way, the Pillars will have to kill in order to stop her from throwing the demon hunters off Muzan's trail. Probably going to fight at least 3 Pillars.

Where do you find these author comments so early? It looks like the one in mangaplus but the ones that appears for me are from last week.

Mommy and Big Sis were fappable.

She also who control the demon fortress, if she is killed the place will likely crumble, probably why Muzan never made her one of the 12 Moons until now since she was more useful alive.

that is one of my favorite moments in the manga

who cares about the others

No main character left to fight 5

That would be cool, I think Nakime and new UM5 will fight Love and Snek

UM5 could go to where nezuko and Ubuyashiki are hiding, or could fight Wind pillar + Genya

Inosuke is the youngest among the main trio, right?

>Rock and Mist vs. UM1
>Love and Snake fight Douma
>Wind and Genya fight Nakime
or switch the last two, it would be interesting to see Genya fighting with the other kids. giyuu and tanjirou will regain consciousness to look for muzan, perhaps with yushirou

Shamisen Player has no rank but is not scared of the Upper Moons. What about her?

I think I might hate him in the anime, depends on the voice. In the manga he's only a minor annoyance.

What is out of nowhere? We've seen this flashback years ago, but just out of context because the only known witness we had was a fucking baby. You can't pretend foreshadowing doesn't exist when everyone in these threads predicts every single development that occurs "out of nowhere".

Inosuke's getting his mark for sure; there's no way the mask removal was just to show douma's stealing trait. I predict that douma will manifest inosuke's two moms in his ice princess attack and that's when the mark will trigger. thanks again
People will compare him to mineta from mha on his first appearance but then start to like him when he protects nezuko's box

>I predict that douma will manifest inosuke's two moms in his ice princess attack and that's when the mark will trigger
Actually he would trigger both Inosuke and Kanao. Also the possibility of manifesting Kanae. Both would get their marks at the same time.

Why does Urokodaki wear the mask? Was it explained anywhere?

I like how Oni in this series are basically vampires, there is a obscure manga about Inugami spirits but they behave like Werewolfs and there is even a red riding hood character that is big bad guy, not much different from Dracula Jackson.

Douma would be even more based for that desu

If his voice is high-pitched and annoying when he shouts and stuff then I'd definitely hate him. I love him in the manga but a voice really is everything - Bakugo was tolerable in the manga but hearing Okamoto's shouting constantly drove me insane.

I don't think he ate Kanae so maybe just Shinobu and Inosuke's mom.

you get a glimpse as to what he'll probably sound like in this PV youtube.com/watch?v=e-t9TsROeh0

We know male Muzan has a wife, how likely you think it is that femMuzan is fucking some guys too? How is sex with Muzan like? I cant even imagine it.

And how in hell is he mantaining three separative lives without others suspecting? Unless he abandoned his family already.

>polishing skills that the haganezuka line has passed down for generations
Didn't his parents literally disown him as a baby because he was born angry?

Shame demon hunting training and lifting isn't possible in real life.

Real life people would have heart attacks if they trained the way demon hunters do. A real life heart wouldn't handle that insane stress.

Not only that but demon hunters can practically control their blood vessels.

>And how in hell is he mantaining three separative lives without others suspecting?
It's implied that he hides by blending in with human families for a while, eventually killing them to move on to the next one.

Too bad this chapter confirms Douma's dying here, I would have preferred the hint at Inosuke's mother which could be expanded in an arc actually investigating his cult but now there's no reason to give him another arc.

I don't think both of them could kill him even when they both get mark. They might be able to cut off his head but he probably won't die.

If he does die they'll have a huge task just to get him to be serious in the first place.

But it's more about when he will appear next. All the demons rely on secret powers being revealed and their motivations coming to light. Since all villains die in this manga, we don't get the usual recurring villain thing. With everything being revealed from Douma, there would be nothing to elaborate on with his next appearance so he has to die here. Koku for example will be kept relatively mysterious in this arc even if he gets some kills in because it allows for everything to be shown from him in the arc where he dies.

Hardboiled

We saw the flashback but there was absolutely nothing connecting it to Douma. It feels very forced to suddenly reveal that he ate her like this, without any prior hints at a connection. The same for Kanae, come to mention it. If this were happening in a self contained arc it would be better because it would’ve been possible to hint at it a bit before the reveal. But instead we got this thing.

In fact one could argue that this new one is a slight retcon, considering the missing blood on her clothes.

Attached: kimetsu inosuke life flash.png (959x1400, 836K)

But how else can it be revealed, we know how these people died and only they know who killed them. The only way for it to be revealed is by the demon who did it talking about it. Also, Inosuke was a baby, obviously he couldn't remember anything accurately but all the elements in his flashback happened.

As I was saying, it would’ve worked better as an individual arc. The reveals could be done in a similar way but with some actual hinting beforehand. In that instance for Inosuke, he didn’t necessarily have to remember anything himself but it could’ve been hinted at by others. Maybe one of the cult members could’ve thought he was familiar or something before Douma revealed the full story.

For Kanae, we’ve known about her death for the same amount of time and were never given a reason to believe Shinobu knew anything about the demon that did it. Until this arc, when it was suddenly brought up that she not only had a physical description of him but also apparently knows how to kill him (according to that one conversation). There wouldn’t even need to be anything specific mentioned just something like “I’ve been thinking about how to kill/searching for the demon that killed her,” and a vague mention of his personality (e.g. smiles a lot). Literally anything to indicate she had some knowledge of him beforehand.

Again, the reveals happening how they have wouldn’t be so bad if there was at least some earlier indication that Douma had a connection to them. But there wasn’t. To me the way it’s been presented feels like a last minute attempt to justify killing him off earlier than he should’ve been.

>when Kanao provide emotional support for you

> With everything being revealed from Douma, there would be nothing to elaborate on with his next appearance so he has to die here.

It really sucks that this is probably the case because everything we’ve seen in his battles could’ve easily been made into it’s own arc. And it would’ve been amazing set out like that. It’s a shame we’re getting such a compressed version instead.

I think it’s even stranger that she’s doing this when Akaza and presumably the new UM4-6 are all dying now as well. It’s overkill to throw in Douma’s death on top of that. The only thing I can think of that might happen is for him to overcome the neck cut weakness. Returning to his battle directly after Akaza’s might be a lead up to that happening. But I don’t think it’s very likely.

This looks cool

>Douma, there would be nothing to elaborate on with his next appearance so he has to die here
Pretty much. Inosuke was already angry with Douma for killing Shinobu, it just doesn't make much sense to add the mother stuff that could have easily fit in in another arc unless Douma was to die right there.

Guessing this is piercing the ball the first time.
