The Result Of Animation Not Carrying This Show On Its Back Anymore

Perhaps I’ve just grown up. When I watched Season 1 of Demon Slayer a few years ago, I genuinely had a great time with it. Episode 19 had me incredibly emotional, and I was in awe over the world-class animation by Studio Ufotable. The Mugen Train movie was incredible as well, with a very emotional s…

worst season so far tbh

Kimidtsu no Yaiba somehow manages to keep lowering its quality every season. The overall quality of the production has dropped drastically since season 2 with this most recent installment, and the writing quality of the narrative and characters has gotten worse too. The latter being quite surprising…

An unbalanced, yet entertaining and explosive season of KnY

I can't ******* believe it. They've done it again (sort of). It's no secret that ufotable have been killing it with their new projects over the last few years. The Heaven's Feel trilogy is stunning, and the two previous seasons of Demon Slayer were superb in the animation department. Episodes like E…

Why this season didn't hit as hard as season 2

(spoilers) First off, I want to say that I do not think that Demon Slayer has no substance or that's it's badly written per say. The thing is that Demon Slayer heavily rely on emotions to convey it's messages. The indomitable human spirit against fatality/never giving up, teamwork/friendship/empat…

Kimetsu no Yaiba has reached "a new level"... of low

Does Kimetsu no Yaiba even need an introduction at this point? The first season blew up like crazy in 2019 to the point it turned into one of the most popular anime series, the movie is the highest grossing anime movie of all times, and this is already the 3rd season. The problem with this season is…

Demon Slayer's Issues Are More Apparent Than Ever Before

__Introduction__ Humor lands flat. Character depth is minimal. Backstories don't hit as hard. Cinematic direction isn't as good as previous seasons, and it's not as on-edge/engaging. 3D is glaringly obvious and detracts from the otherwise good animation. This season feels like a detour. A problem…

The worst Demon Slayer season.

I see people claiming that this season is, without a doubt in their minds, the worst Demon Slayer season out there. People like to say that Demon Slayer is carried by its animation, or that its animation doesn't cover for its mediocre story. I'd say Demon Slayer doesn't have a mediocre story. Howeve…

When you release 11 episodes after 2 years but don't outdo yourself.

Abit late but here's my review. I'll make it completely unbiased. So far this is the worst season Demon Slayer has to offer, even damaging to the overall series, but I'll start with the positive things it has to offer. - It has a strong start, introducing the characters and giving alot of unbelieva…

An Unfortunate Tale of High Expectations and Disastrous Pacing

Following up one of my favourite seasons of television ever, Demon Slayer: The Swordsmith Village Arc had big shoes to fill - and with producer Ufotable's promises that this season was going to be something unlike anything anyone had seen before, I was cautiously optimistic that there was a chance t…

Kimetsu no Desastre - A Vila da porrada (Review em PT-BR)

Se ainda restava dúvida de que isso era terrível, as minhas dúvidas acabaram...Kimetsu é um anime sem salvação. O arco não agrega em nada para história de fato, no todo, é apenas uma sequência de batalhas aleatórias acontecidas após a invasão dos vilões, e não tem nada pra se retirar disso, eu pode…

Kimetsu no Yaiba continues to circle the drain with a disappointing 3rd season, not having learned a lesson from S2.

~~~img(https://starcrossedanime.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Kimetsu-no-Yaiba-S3-Banner.png)~~~ Another year, another season of *Kimetsu no Yaiba*.

Sadly disappointing, could have been better

My profound disappointment cannot be overstated as I reflect upon this most recent season. My anticipation for a remarkable narrative arc was met with sheer dismay, as the episodes seemingly devolved into an incessant prolongation, unnecessarily elongating the fight sequences. Undeniably, the qualit…

Weak, Predictable, and Lacking Development, But Has a Killer Finale

Probably the weakest season of Demon Slayer so far, though I have been noticing a steady decline in quality all the way from Season 1 until now. I think the root of my issues stem from predictability and a formulaic approach to the show's writing. Each arc begins and ends in basically the same way,…

Não é ruim, mas está longe de ser memorável. Pior comparada as anteriores.

Nota: 6,5 / 10. A terceira temporada de Demon Slayer, o arco da Vila dos Ferreiros, funciona como entretenimento, mas falha como construção narrativa mais sólida. O problema não é falta de ação, nem de qualidade técnica. Pelo contrário, a animação continua sendo de altíssimo nível e sustenta a temp…

Swordsmith Village refuses to elaborate, breaks continuity, and makes up more excuses than ever before.

SPOILERS: Following the Entertainment District, that seemed to have a set purpose in what it was trying to tell, Swordsmith Village throws you around from fight to fight with zero build up, zero attachment, and zero intent on explaining anything. The constant use of, "but how?" is asked a plethora o…

Still very enjoyable, but the first season that feels like a clear step down from the incredibly high standard we know

After finishing the Swordsmith Village Arc, I think this is the first time I genuinely felt a noticeable drop in quality compared to what came before. Coming from three seasons that kept raising the bar in different ways, this one felt like the weakest of the bunch. That doesn't mean it's bad by any…
