>She fought Doma for around a full hour even before Inosuke showed up
She is actually stronger than Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu combined. She might be the strongest character in the universe, tied or even surpassing Yoriichi.

Funny thing is that was the case from the beginning and those 3 had to play catchup.

Canonically Doma dies to Kanao (99.7% team power), Shinobu (0.2% team power) and Inosuke (0.1% team power)

That's because the author is a hack who tried to bite off more than what they could chew. This manga has a little, it's smaller than most other manga of the same genre but the author still had trouble juggling these characters which is why they awkwardly tried to cram everything into the final arc and give everyone their time to shine.

there's some internal monologue where he shows he's a bit of a fight autist and tries to milk opponents for all their information and abilities in case it helps him later.

but the most important thing is that Kanao was consciously talking and stalling

Douma was just toying with her the entire time — even after Inosuke showed up, that didn’t change.
The only moment he got serious was when Shinobu’s kamikaze poison kicked in and he actually felt like his life was in danger, which is when he pulled out the ice Buddha.

He’s basically like Gilgamesh — always arrogant, always holding back unless shit gets real.
That’s just how his character is written.

I mean she had a pretty fucking steep advantage being trained since literal childhood by a goddamn Hashira, then a Hashira after that, and both of said Hashira were active in fights too and not retired so they could go all out.

Really, in hindsight, it's kind of jarring how steep the difference is between folks who just got Total Concentrated Breathing is to the fodder, that nobody taught that shit before the final selection is a little questionable to the overall ethics of the organization as a whole. Pre-TCB Tanjiro literally couldn't do shit to a lower moon but once he got it not only did he take out a goddamn train monster he personally beheaded an Upper Moon. Comparing Inosuke being unable to cut the big spider to being able to hold back a direct attack from an Upper Moon is a sign that maybe one of these fuckers should've told the other rank and file to blow into the goddamn pot.

Did anyone besides Zenitsu? The absolute closest you can name is maybe Mist vs Upper 5, except Upper 5 had his ass dead to rights till the swordsmith distracted him and the kid saved him in the water.

Zenitsu at least beat an Upper Moon... who didn't have a blood art and for some reason couldn't be considered 5, even though there was no 5, so for some reason he's not more powerful than nothing.

you know how the demon slayer's have had them be symbolic, artistic representations of what's happening? Kokushibro is actually throwing out god damned moons

The author was clearly done with the manga even though it was exploding with popularity. She rushed the ending when giving at least Douma his own arc would've been better for pacing and character development. I don't blame her for taking the bag and fucking off since what's 5 million more in book sales for an extra arc when you already know you're going to be loaded no matter what? But with how nips usually are you'd think she would've been able to tough out just one extra arc for the sake of the story.

Which is, of course, absurd in that situation. He wasn’t dealing with a random Hashira who dropped in on him doing his cult stuff. He wasn’t on a far-flung mission to find Spider Lillies. He was the #2 batter for the home team in final battle in which his side was greatly outnumbered. If there was ever a time in his life that he had get serious it was then. But he COULDN’T fight seriously, because doing so would mean he would kill Shinobu instantly and she needed to win her Hashira battle. Douma was literally there for no other reason than the job to her. Of course that’s normal in a shounen manga, but a talented shounen creator can set it up so that it doesn’t SEEM like a job.
