Time for something new! I like it so far

Demon Slayer Ep 1

Comments

"Michael Jackson?" 🤣 glad bro had the same reaction as everyone

テレサKingBoo

Glad to see you giving demon slayer a try. I think it will be a fun show! And I feel the same way on night encounters! I've been playing a ToA Chult campaign and the deep treks across the jungles get really old.

Matthew Harrison

People want me to talk at the end of episodes, so that's what that is lol

DrumRollTony

Glad u realized u can just sit back and enjoy instead of trying to predict every possible story path (though I get that it’s natural to speculate.) anime for me became much more enjoyable when I had no expectations. Predicting stuff to be right will be gratifying short term but it won’t be as enjoyable as being surprised imo.

RamsessZ

Story is basic but the show masters every other element

Land Hooman

Not the answer I was expecting at all.

what the goat

WhirlyGT

javier calderon

makotheQ60

the guy that tried killing his sister is voiced by the same person that voices reigen from mob btw

javier calderon

demon slayer is such a great anime it gives me a peace of mind whenever i watch it

Yammy

from my understanding, demons arent widely believed in. Theyre real, but more like a myth and not everyone believes they are actually real.

michael ESSS

love demon slayer because its on the simpler side for anime, very easy on the mind to watch lol, but still a great show with great moments

Yozora

All my homies love slaying demons

TheGoblerTrainsMovinIn

In my opinion, the show doesn’t really find its footing and get great until episode 19 specifically. After that, it’s all great. It’s not bad before that, just sorta generic. The production values eventually get truly ridiculous lmao

SimplySora

Huh.... interesting. So the old man is the only person spouting this off and then...exactly what he is talking about happens. LOL story telling L if that is the case

DrumRollTony

Tanjiro didnt believe the old man when he was talking about demons. He thought he was just lonely and wanted someone to hang out with, thats why he said next time ill bring my sibling to hang out with the old man.

Magikarp

The journey starts!!!!

Meru Tenchin

All your questions will be answered. The journey begins! That was indeed the opening. And yes that was indeed Michael Jackson!

Arsenic805

I felt kinda bad when Tony was making an effort to get down the names of all the siblings... Also with the old man in the woods the implication is that it is not the norm to believe that truly demons do exist, and as he mentions there his grandmother used to talk about demons suggesting that no one else in his upbringing or community really talks about them. Being a japanese anime first, these shows often assume you kind of have a base level knowledge of japanese spiritual and cultural beliefs, and that stories about demons are not unheard of but aren't something the average person believes or worries about.

From the first episode tanjiro mostly wants answers to save his sister. So not yet has a way or goal. But searching for any answers. I definitely wouldn't go into this anime with any specific kind of expectations (no offense to the lovers of this anime) but it does slow down a couple of times. I know many friends that have dropped this anime, do to expecting too much of the story and got bored.

Shawtty

Go Shiina is my favorite music composer. I am glad you will be able to experience his work through this anime. 🙏

23:11 "MICHEAL JACKSON??" that was everybody reaction lmaoo😭😭

Diego Castagnetti

Sweet. Thx for info

DrumRollTony

"Michael Jackson" lmao! He knows!!

Szayel H

DeHEHEmon Slayer 🕴🏻

makotheQ60

Nearly spat my drink when Tony said "Michael Jackson"

Auks

That was the Opening at the end. It’s also hilarious that the one character in the Fedora made you immediately go “Michael Jackson?” Very common reaction.

Ivan Parra

Serial Experiments Lains opening "Duvet" by boa and it literally only happened last month that's an over 6 year reign for Gurenge

makotheQ60

that was the opening that was played towards the end and will be played for the entire runtime of the first season (26 episode)

Mohamed

What passed it? IDOL or Bling Bang Bang Born?

A37

Ufotable, the creators of the anime, are masters of using the strengths of CGI and 3D environments together with traditional 2D animation to create just gorgeous spectacles. You noticed it in this episode from the camera movements.

Xoulium

The ending was the OP it's "Gurenge" by LiSA and was the number one streamed anime opening on Spotify up until last month when it was finally passed by another (this came out in 2019) over 400m Spotify streams of Gurenge! This opening was even featured during the opening ceremony of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics!

makotheQ60

This was indeed the opening at the end. Also- From this point on, every episode after credits contains a short comedic bit. Just like the first season of JJK

ndcho

Sorry about that, I just have no life. I'm always fiending for content from my favorite creators.

FINALLY DEMON SLAYER

Diego Castagnetti

Not Chinese style, Demon Slayer and some other Japanese media sometimes use these modernized/orchestral renditions of traditional Japanese theatre music. There's at least nagauta, tokiwazu and kiyomoto. All have their origins in kabuki and traditional dancing, effectively making that type of music also, in a way, soundtracks. It's usually something to do with that if you hear that sorta "buddhist mantra" singing and the very distinct string instruments (I'm not gonna pretend like I know which ones they are specifically every time, but shamisen is the most common iirc, and also the biwa). There's a tsugaru shamisen player I really like called TENBI, her playing almost made me want to learn the instrument once.

A37

This anime is definitely a journey. Looking forward to seeing you go through it.

Peyrino

In most anime shows, the song that plays in the end of the first episode is the opening. Then from the 2nd episode onward they add the ending

eyalmazuz

Another Big series hype

nanda kore
