    Get yer downdoots ready.

    Demon Slayer Beautiful anime, classic Shonen main character. Decent stakes. But they just bail on some really interesting drama. Nez being hypnotised to see humans as friends was such a cop out. Man, that took so much out of the show. You can have an entire episode where she escapes into a city and Tanjiro has to hunt her down before she kills someone. But no, headpats.

    And that yellow hunter. Dear sweet mother of Christ he is irredeemably irritating. Just get your lungs torn out and be done with it.

    Baffling show.

      We got pretty far into the show with a friend, the animation was just immaculate, and the cuteness of Nezuko worked on us.

      The key was to fast forward whenever yellow annoying boy was on screen. I don’t think we ever missed out on anything plot-relevant by doing that.

      But we ditched it in the end, too.
