what is your opinion on Kimetsu no Yaiba? The official logo is Demon Slayer in giant font but Kimetsu no Yaiba is always included in much smaller font below it. I use demon slayer when talking to casual viewers but still use KnY or Kimetsu with my closer weeb friends

That's like saying Sony is now an American company because Playstation is headquartered in California. It doesn't matter if the CEO is American. ByteDance the parent company which owns Tik Tok and Douyin will remain in China. Tik tok's is a company under the ByteDance umbrella.
@MMJDanM
@CanadianxTC
Valid but the point is that it’s an exception to your Attack on Titan example. KnY is still in every localized logo in the west with the Japanese logo literally just being “Kimetsu no Yaiba” or 鬼滅の刃 and no “demon slayer” in sight. It doesn’t even really translate to that.
I can’t stop thinking about it. You just can’t do a stand-alone 5 episode season. It just feels wrong. Make this a season 4 part 1 and infinity castle a season 4 part 2 kind of thing.

It’s not so straightforward. I followed the rankings every week since it started as I’m one of the few that read the manga week to week. It def struggled in 2016, it’s first year but became more popular around 2017 and quite popular in 2018-2019. And in Japan. Not the west.
Kimetsu no Yaiba’s Entertainment District Arc visuals in Shinjuku Station. A public mega spoiler but 90% of Japan has read it by this point so no biggie…

Just reposting so you’ll see it. please add “Kimetsu no Yaiba” to your future articles on season 3? So just make your titles “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.” I was an early manga reader of the series and the “Kimetsu no Yaiba” part of the romanized title is important to me
@knyesta
@AcePortgazd
I guess what I’m trying to say to you is. It was popular before the anime (in Japan mainly and not the west) but it was not popular from the start (2016). It really start doing genuinely well around mid 2017 after chapter 54 or so when the Mugen Train Manga arc started.
I didn't expect that flashback to go on for so long (could have been shorter) but all in all, it played like I envisioned it. It's too bad that Nezuko's screen time gets utterly shafted after this as a character. She was under-used in the final battle

@Bonsai_Pop
So it was more so your characterization of Muta and Karl's motivations versus you standing up for your friend that sat wrong with me. And while you didn't intend this, it ironically led to bigoted things being said about Muta and even Karl (regarding his profile photo and hair)
9 chapters... Conflicted on how they're doing this. I would have been fine waiting 2 more years for them to just animate the Training Arc and merge it with the Infinity Castle arc for one huge season. Guess the plan is animate both simultaneously

@AcePortgazd
Also it’s mainly a Japan audience vs the west thing. It had a non-existent fan base in the west. I still remember back in summer 2018, most people called it Kimetsu no Yaiba or just Kimetsu.
@YonkouProd
announced the anime on his twt and most people’s reactions were “what manga?”
@fan_of_luigi
I just feel bad for Karl and Muta. There was this anime youtuber I follow called Bonsai Pop who indirectly attributed them of targeting The Completionist due to his race, just because of a few toxic comments that had absolutely nothing to do with the accusations.
@fan_of_luigi
Karl is ticked off and rightfully so. Seemingly Everyone on twitter acted as if the completionist "brought receipts." These receipts disproved none of the allegations. He resorted to manipulating emotions and even admitted to using bits/superchat money to pay for his own event.
Was excited to see this trending but then I started reading the tweets and..You all get way too emotional/invested in shallow stuff.
Also
@twitter
please use Kimetsu no Yaiba as your topic name and not Demon Slayer. Kimetsu no Yaiba's a cooler title name.

Persona 3 is out in a week. I've been trying to make an animation for the release of the game over the last 3 weeks and I know I'm not going to finish it in time. I'm so sad.
@MMJDanM
@CanadianxTC
All I’m saying is while I feel it’s less valid to say Shingeki no Kyojin due to them pushing the English title hard. Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is an outlier with them clearing wanting Japanese included in the localization. People still use KnY as an abbreviation as well
I wonder how fast they're going to go through this arc. It's pretty short compared to previous ones if you cut out the fights. Show more of the district and the Oirans. Focus more on atmosphere and less on fights.
I’m prepared to be surprised but I won’t be. Amazing animation that will result in multiple viral Twitter clips but terrible pacing, with lots of flashbacks and each movie revolving around just a single fight. it’s just the greed that bugs me.
#KimetsuNoYaiba
#DemonSlayer
I might be in the minority but I hope they don't bloat this to be a full 11 episode season. It would be ridiculous. The source material is literally the exact equivalent of the last 5 episodes of season 1. Do 5 episodes max.

Kimetsu no Yaiba TV Anime 'Hashira Training Arc' Teaser Announcement.
Series has announced its upcoming sequel as a new television anime season. No more information has been revealed.
Well there was a boost in August but the boost after it ended was just that much bigger. Plus the fact that it ended during the height of the pandemic.
@mtisuris
I would not call it bad. It was wholesome. But I also felt that it was rushed and DKT Tanjiro as a plot device, was not executed as well as it could have been. Nezuko didn’t get to do much and a lot of the Hashira could have been developed more. Don’t @ me. It’s just my opinion.
I’m constantly anxious. I really do wish I could achieve this type of inner peace of mind sometimes but I don’t think I ever will. It’s so hard for me to get others to understand how I think sometimes.

And believe me. I’ve been into KnY longer than the majority of western fans. Hell I still prefer to call it Kimetsu no Yaiba and not demon slayer because I’m so used to saying it since 2016. So yeah infinity castle: I agree. Sunrise countdown: Disagree. It’s been divisive online

the “Atlus Survey 2022 Special Program” was held in 2022 where Atlus polled persona fans worldwide on what they wanted to see a remake of. Persona 3 and Persona 2 were
#1
and
#2
on the list. Persona: Revelations AKA Persona 1 was
#3
and Persona 4 was
#4
.
I encourage everyone to consider watching “Kusuriya no Hitorigoto” also known as “The Apothecary Diaries.” It’s an amazing Light Novel and the Anime adaption looks amazing.
@ShirrakoGaming
So I don't consider Black Myth a soulslike. It's a little similar to Sekiro and Nioh but those games already significantly diverged from souls games.
Considered how much you were pushing the "Armored Core 6 is a soulslike" narrative a year ago, I'm not surprised you tweeted this
@EaglesBurna
@dannyboy1717twt
@animetv_jp
Josh. I agree with you on infinity castle that it’s almost universally praised as the best arc. I actually disagree with you the sunrise countdown arc due to the divisiveness over Muzan’s final fight. The final Tanjiro twist was also divisive as well as it being a bit rushed.
@PaulTassi
it would mean a lot to me if you could do this one simple change? I love the series like you do but “Kimetsu no Yaiba” is an important part of the title. It’s included in the English versions of the title too and on Wikipedia and Crunchyroll. Please show me some compassion.
Never seen a “recap+new season episode” film be the showpiece at a western theater but look at this. The new Kimetsu no Yaiba film is doing well in the West. Surprising given the source material for this arc

I'm very curious what will win best picture at the Oscars this year. Lots of debatable candidates. On the other hand I'm completely uninterested in what wins anime of the year this year. Knowing Crunchyroll and their preference for the same 5 shows, I'm going to be disappointed
@kitty_bit_games
Thank you Sasha for the lore accurate Cosplay. It's been shared on our community. Feel free to post your Kimetsu no Yaiba cosplays there!
Feels like I've waited forever. I remember it being "so close" back in 2014 then I thought it would never come after several years so I just forgot about it. Now the remake is finally here:
I detest Facebook so much. I spent 3 years, growing, managing and cultivating literally just an Anime fan page, which was clearly stated and they just unpublish you for no reason and give you zero chances to speak to a person.

If you say so, but again my comment wasn’t really talking about that. It was more a response to the guy talking about about AOT vs SNK and MHA vs BNHA. That kind of stuff. I was simply asking if KnY would be an exception to him.
@Quink06649605
@Fightincowboy
Did you even watch the video or read Cowboy’s pinned comment in the video? He couldn’t disagree more… It’s funny how two people look at the demo and see completely different things. It time to stop calling anything with telegraphed attacks, healing, and a lock-on “soulslike.”
If you are someone who just has to consume manga content with swords, consider reading Juushin No Katana: Katana Beast. It’s a new series and could use your support. There are new Twitter update channels dedicated to it as well

Hey
@jobisky
. If you’re lonely and wanna talk more KnY we have a huge community on Reddit that you can hang out with. We’re a wholesome group! And we can all chat when the new season comes out. I hope they don’t milk just 6 episodes of a 9 chapter arc though haha.
That is a long time. Hope they were working on other stuff concurrently with different teams since 8 episodes of a training arc is not that much for 2 years. Most of the work probably went solely into that last episode.

This next arc will be quite emotional. Genuine question. I wonder what the current ratio is in terms of westerners who have read the manga vs anime only viewers? 80-20% in favor of anime only or is it more even than I thought?
@hiraethfloat
@Lantrax0
Yesssssss. Agreed. I don’t mind if you call it Kimetsu no Yaiba or demon slayer. But DS? DS is for dark souls or the Nintendo DS. Googling DS gets you nothing demon slayer related. Googling KnY gets you everything demon slayer related.
I desperately don’t want Centuria to be cancelled. This has so much potential with the proper studio animating it. Dark fantasy. Odyssey like story. What’s not to get excited for?

99% of Chess is not played online., and it's been popular for a long time. Maybe for a few months more people play online due to COVID but everyone below the age of 25 somehow thinks Twitch "made chess mainstream." It's a super oversimplified way of thinking.
Netflix U.S. finally got Kimetsu no Yaiba. Getting the rights for a potential season 2 is going to be a bidding war. Not looking forward to that.

And frankly a lot of my crowd were manga readers who just simply got used to the title before localization. Just like some people in this thread read Dungeon Meshi for years and got used to it, and feel less comfortable switching to “delicious in dungeon.”

Okay I will continue to support you, but I would really love it if you could do comic that mixed sports, big brothers and little sisters in the future!

Nah. Aside from Mui, it's not a huge deal this season. It'll become a very central plot point in the next season. Or I guess the season after "next season" since we're actually doing this 9 chapter standalone season thing. You still plan to start the Manga (post chapter 127 ?)
Why are we celebrating this like the Crunchyroll Awards are a good thing? Animation? Deserved. Best Fantasy? What?? Should we be celebrating as well if it steals “Best Fantasy” from Frieren next year?

I have to say, I've never read a series that blends horror and comedy as well as Mieruko-Chan. You guys should read it. If manga's not your thing, there's an adaption coming soon but the trailer doesn't cover much:
