Demon Slayer Kimetsu No Yaiba Review
Tanjiro is a typical kind-hearted shonen protagonist, although his journey is written better than most shonen anime protagonist. He doesn’t magically gain new abilities, he works really hard for them, unlike most recent shonen. He also really loves his sister very much which is apparent in his desire to help her find a cure and avenge their family. The opening song ‘Gurenge’ is a really catchy and soulful track and the same can be said about the ending song ‘From the edge’. The animation by Ufotable is exceptional too making this anime a must watch this spring.
Conclusively, I think Demon Slayer Kaimetsu No Yaiba is must watch and gets 4 out of 5 stars.
