Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Swordsmith Village Arc
Oshimeter
Synopsis
After his blade gets completely wrecked, Tanjiro and Nezuko get escorted to a hidden village full of master swordsmiths to get a new one. Sounds like a chill little side trip, right? It is, for about two episodes. The Swordsmith Village Arc is where Demon Slayer starts giving real screen time to two Hashira who've mostly been in the background, Muichiro Tokito, the Mist Hashira who's basically a spaced-out prodigy, and Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira, whose fighting style is genuinely unlike anything else in the show. The early stretch lets Tanjiro poke around the village, discover an ancient training weapon, and just exist in this world for a bit before things inevitably go sideways. Across 11 episodes, ufotable does what ufotable does: the action sequences here are some of the most visually ambitious stuff in the entire series, and the soundtrack hits in ways that make even quiet moments feel heavy. If you liked the escalation in Attack on Titan's later arcs or the way Jujutsu Kaisen handles its villain hierarchy, the Upper Rank demons here bring that same energy where every encounter feels genuinely dangerous. The breathing techniques get more creative, and there's real emotional weight behind why these characters fight. If Bleach's Soul Society arc was your thing, elite warriors defending a sacred place from invasion, this scratches a similar itch with modern production values. It's a strong arc in an already solid run.

How do I press watch though?
amazing and never such amazing anime before all time favorite anime now for me. Must watch them
I thought it was a very good first episode to then season and I thought the ending song was very good, I will say the mitsuri bath scene came on right when my parents walked in so that was pretty awkward 😭
Love it so much, way too much its the first anime I've ever watched and it's really fun but intense at time definitely recommend
best anime ever
My fav season of KNY so far
Really good
the animation the aura is on a nextlevel and giyu is so handsome
Oki, I know the entertainment arc was my favourite - BUT. BUT, this one is beginning to take second place. I love the fight scenes in here, and it's PEAK when you read it through the manga (personal preference)
It lost some momentum from the previous arc but it's still 🔥
Good fight
kinda mid
500/5000

BRO HANTENGU IS SUCH A CRYBABY
Vuelve el formato de episodio de una hora, algo que personalmente me resultó molesto porque alarga la historia con escenas y recuerdos que ya habíamos visto, incluso desde la perspectiva de personajes que no estuvieron presentes. Sin embargo, pasada la primera mitad, recupera el ritmo y se vuelve mucho más interesante gracias al avance de la trama. No fue mi episodio favorito para cerrar la temporada.
Otro capítulo con bastante trasfondo, esta vez centrado en Karonji. Explica las razones por las que decidió unirse al Cuerpo de Exterminio de Demonios y ayuda a entender mucho mejor a su personaje.
Bastante acción y mucho movimiento. Fue un episodio que me atrapó más y se sintió mucho más rápido que los anteriores.
Este episodio muestra por fin el pasado de Muichiro y permite entender por qué es como es. También ofrece muy buenas escenas de acción. Me mantuvo mucho más atento que el episodio anterior y terminó con ganas de seguir viendo qué sucedía después.
El peligro sigue aumentando para los protagonistas. Además, empezamos a conocer un poco más del pasado de Muichiro y de los recuerdos ocultos tras su niebla mental. Aun así, me pareció un episodio bastante lento y, hasta ahora, uno de los que menos disfruté.
