>Biggest anime of all time
>General opinion of the movie is that "It's MID"

>>282226339 (OP)
I watched it yesterday. It was a masterpiece, my 3 normie friends didn't care for it.

>>282226352
fr, boring frierenslop wishes it could be this good

>>282226339 (OP)
I don't know where you're getting your opinions from but I thought it was phenomenal. Also thanks for all the KnY threads :D

>>282226363
It's really fucking good. I was hooked from the beginning, the audio-visual experience, seeing it on the big screen alone is worth the price of the ticket.
But then the climax of the movie kicks in, and I was just shook.

very organic thread

I was really really sleepy cause this movie started at 10:30 PM. I made it like 20 minutes into the movie and then was out cold for a good 45 mins. For what I was awake for, there was way too many flashbacks and dialogues and not enough fighting. So much unrealistic plot points and stupid shit going on. I’m sure you get more out of this after watching the show but to the average viewer, it's mid.

Save your time on something else unless you're a diehard demon slayer fan

>>282226339 (OP)
the average iq is 100

>>282226339 (OP)
animation wise and visually it was impressive, soundtrack was very good as well, lots of cool moments.
I don't know if it's a problem of mine but after a certain amount of stimuli I cannot enjoy media as fully anymore, so the best part felt like first half. Backstory wasn't bad, a bit cheap on some aspects but overall ok.
What I didn't like was how their joint effort couldn't kill him and he suddenly remembered his past and acknowledged Tanjirou as le goodest person. Still don't understand why he considered himself beat. Also Tanjirou powerup was retarded but it's shounen, didn't expect much kek.
Quite pleasant experience and technically amazing, I can see why some people praise it that much but it's far from being the best, due to the limitations of its source material.
Better than any shounen movies I've seen probably, but compared to other anime movies it's not the best, for example I saw recently UmaMusume Shin Jidai no Tobira and it mogs it

>>282226339 (OP)
It's because these greedy counts should have realized this movie gimmick to get maximum revenue wouldn't last long, the manage wasn't written to be consumed in movie format especially not an arc like this one.

This is undeniably the worst aspect of this series and the anime/movies makes it 10x worse.

Me but Instead I watched Revue Starlight the movie, literally anime of the decade, the night before I watched Infinity Castle.

KNY sucks

>>282227168
Can I watch it without prior knowledge or do I need regular seasons?

through kimetsu I learned that no amount of budget can save shonenshit writing

>>282226906
>>282227031
word
I don't give a fuck about this guy, his flashback does nothing to expand the world lore or move the plot forward. He's fucking dead, put that shit in a databook or its own OVA.

>>282227200
it's not really casual friendly unless you haven't caught up with the previous season since the movie is under the assumption that you watched the show
i just watched it because my friends lured me into it

that part was peak kino

The one good thing kimetsu had was better pacing than most shonen slop. They jump the shark for the final arc and the anime made it even worse

>>282227218
I know you are a shonentard, but there's this thing called THEMES.

>>282227207
Thanks for summing up my thoughts about this show

What is with people's fear of going to a movie alone? Why drag someone who won't share the same interest in it as you and make it awkward?

>>282227264
My sister dragged me, I don’t like Kimetsu but it’s not like I had anything better to do

>>282227274
is your sister hot ? is she single ?

>>282227264
I'm scared of people I don't know thinking I'm a friendless loser

>>282227250
I know you're a faggot, but there's this thing called PACING

>>282227286
>complain it doesn't move forward plot or lore
>it's about pacing now

>>282227308
Yes. It was an interruption in the action (effecting the PACING). An interruption in the action that didn't even have the decency to be relevant (by moving the plot/lore forward). It still would have been bad if it DID move the plot/lore forward, it was flat out abysmal for not doing those things.

>>282227281
I can’t call someone who looks like me hot

>>282227330
Again, it moved the THEMES forward, retard

>>282227361
Muh themes mean jackshit if the pacing is garbage

>>282227231
I cannot guarantee I can get through the seasons but I'll give it a shot. The Movie I talked about doesn't require any previous knowledge, and that makes it a perfect introduction to the franchise. I cannot say if watching the seasons improves the experience, but playing the game a bit most certainly does. Not required still

>>282227361
Priority is being put on the wrong thing here. The flashbacks were poorly placed, simple as.

>>282227281
90% of ugly women can be fixer uppers with time and patience

hi im new in 4chan

People are blowing the pacing shit out of proportion, they just needed a slightly better artistic transition to akazas flashback and to cut a few minutes of fat out of it (mostly by not putting in the aniori shit). It's like a .3 point deduction, but one piece twitter trannies walking out of the theater with tears in their eyes have to save face somehow

genuinely one of the worst movies seen of the year. god awful pacing with the over 100 fl(ass)hbacks.

it's mid because shounensloppa can't be peak. the least worst one like gintama and hxh are unironic 8.5 at the very best, at least for people who consoom other stuff besides shounenshit

>>282229204
It's insane how KNY, which isn't even liked on this board, is being heavily promoted here. I can understand MHA because it's kind of relevant to zoomers or something. But KNY? By far the least popular COVID era shonen.

>>282229674
>isn't even liked on this board
The same board that translated the manga when no one in the west gave a shit?

>>282229658
gintama is 20 years old by now. also it's the only shounen with an unironic sigma male alpha chad protagonist so it deserves its spot

too bad the final was shit

>>282229693
4ch does this for every manga. KNY threads are much less populated than Jujutsu and CSM threads.

>>282229674
KnY was loved here long before the manga became popular everywhere.

>>282229674
like kny or not, the anime is a must-watch simply because of the ufotable's eyecandy.

>>282229727
I don't see that love on this site. The threads barely reach the post limit. Meanwhile, any leak from a finished manga like Jujutsu immediately reaches the limit.

Yeah, it's slop. It looks nice, though. I've probably long since grown out of shonen shit, but I'll gladly support anime theatrical releases for the betterment of anime in the west at large. Fuck Crunchyroll

>>282229754
dunno about the manga when it was released, but now the manga is over and there's no torrent so there's nothing to discuss about. and as you've said, most /a/nons aren't watching it in cinema so things are quiet for now

>>282229673
What you’ve been saying makes no sense.
The fact that it’s pulling high scores across every rating site up to this point already disproves your claim that the “general opinion is mid".
What exactly do you mean by “general opinion”?
Normalfags’ opinions?
Even at my workplace, I saw some coworkers talking about making plans to go see the KnY movie over the weekend.

>>282229760
I'm not going to watch garbage just to support anime. The last anime movie I watched was How Do You Live, which was kind of mediocre. But it's much better than whatever KNY is.

normie LOVE slop, aka mid stuff. of course they watch kny in cinema. that's the whole point

popular = accessible = 100 iq = mid = normie like it.

>>282229777
High scores are meaningless. It's not a victory for anime by any measurable metric. In fact, Ghibli winning was kind of a victory in making Millennials and Gen X more accepting of anime.

>>282229674
Among zoomers, nobody cares about MHA anymore. Since around 2022, KnY has already become more popular.

>>282229715

By that logic, Dragon Ball, Evangelion, Spirited Away, and Attack on Titan—all of which once became social phenomena in Japan—are all “mid” too, right?

>>282226339 (OP)
Everyone that watched it loved it. You lost.

>>282229926
>Dragon Ball, Evangelion, Spirited Away, and Attack on Titan are all mid right?

Yes

Lucky trips of truth

>>282229926
>By that logic, Dragon Ball, Evangelion, Spirited Away, and Attack on Titan—all of which once became social phenomena in Japan—are all “mid” too, right?
uhm yes? they are mid even on mal

actual peak anime are gintama, ashita no joe, logh, revue starlight, monogatari, fruits basket, etc... and they aren't popular in the west because they arent mid

Is puzzling to me how such inoffensive show as Demon Slayer can cause such a hateboner. I can only think it's terminally online people who overuse social media and get bombarded by people liking it so they get autistically angry about it.

>>282229674
I was here for the manga threads since chapter 1 and they were peak.

>>282229990
it's not really kny's fault, it's just the scapegoat for autists who are mad that midshit gets popular while their obscure niche kino is ignored by everyone

>>282229926
>Dragon Ball, Evangelion, Spirited Away, and Attack on Titan

Evangelion and Shingeki no Kyojin are mid.
Rest are not.

>>282229674
MHA is most definitely not relevant with zoomers

>>282230014
This it's the type of people that stop liking stuff if it becomes "too popular"
>"I stop reading it because of the fans"

I think my main issues with the movie is that it has very little to work with cause of the manga. Flashbacks that take like 2 pages worth is being stretched to 15 minutes of screen time which is shit. My friend yesterday who’s a huge demon slayer fan said it was bad because of how long each flashback was. Comparing the adaptation with the heavens feel movies, you can tell there was too much content to work with (visual novel duh) so they had to cut so much out which made it shit. if the Issue with fate is too much content to work with, then the issue with the demon slayer movies will be that there’s too little content to work with so they will stretch out everything. So get ready for the same format for the next two movies which will just be ass

>>282230045
the nuance is a little bit different. autist don't like it a priori because it is objectively mid, but at the same time it also gets popular and everybody likes it, so their indifference becomes hate

>>282229674
KnY is now the number one IP among zoomers.
Maybe One Piece is higher, but even then, it’s still number two.

>>282230088
Jujutsu Kaisen is still bigger in the West, sorry

>>282230028
>>282229984
So you're just being autistic about people liking different things than you? The general opinion is just your opinion.
Maybe you should use this thread as a catalyst for some seriously needed reflection.

>>282230148
And why its movies did not make bonkers?

>>282230148
Under what metric?

>>282230196
>The general opinion is just your opinion.
no, the opinion of everyone is that it's mid. the problem is that normies unironically like mid sloppa while "we" shit on it

>>282226339 (OP)
You missed out on true masterpieces. Sry bro you can't blame ppl when've seen and understood peaks you have yet to.

>>282230289
Is everyone here in the house?

>>282230296

>>282226788
>Still don't understand why he considered himself beat.
Because they literally cut off his head and he remembered his whole drive (getting stronger) was from when he was human and had something to protect.

>>282230310
no, most of everyone don't use 4chan

>>282230148
KnY’s volume sales overseas alone are 56 million.
Meanwhile, Jujutsu Kaisen’s total worldwide volume sales(including Japan) are 100 million, but its overseas-only sales haven’t been disclosed.
However, it’s hard to imagine that the overseas ratio is more than half.
Even for Naruto and MHA, the overseas ratio is less than half; for KnY it’s one quarter, and for One Piece one fifth.
So even if JJK had the same overseas ratio as Naruto, with half its sales overseas, that would only be 50 million, still less than KnY.
And since JJK is much bigger in Japan, it’s more reasonable to assume that the actual sales ratio is heavily weighted toward Japan.

hxh, parasyte, made in abyss

>>282230324
So everyone is you?

>>282230332
all mid, yes

Was Zenitsu's brother ever referenced in the anime before? I watched it all when it was released so its been awhile but I was pretty confused because I didn't even remember a reference to him before.

>>282230340
no, i'm shitting on kny as you can see

>>282230296
Also most popular shit tends to be mid.. which is why it's popular in the first place. There's also personal taste which may change as you understand things and grow. I used to think steins:gate was amazing but when I look at now I can only think "god I was so young, blind and naive to believe this".

>>282230360
Summer is over my friend

>>282230358
Twice, once during Zenitsu's flashback and once in Gyomei's

>>282230365
And eventually you'll overcome this face and luckily evolve to the "I enjoy for what it was" state.

>>282230330
Manga sales are irrelevant anime is the cusp of popularity and JJK is more popular in the West than KNY

>>282230382
no it's not

>>282230332
Hunter x Hunter is honestly overrated.
The first half of the Yorkshin arc was good, but everything else is mid or worse. (Netero vs. Meruem ended up being nothing more than a full of narration slop, probably because it was during that awkward period when Togashi was half-influenced by Baki.)
This slop basically just sets strong characters against each other, hypes it up with “Now an incredible battle is about to begin!”and then finds some excuse so that nothing actually happens.
In other words, there are a lot of moments where it feels like Togashi is either too tired to draw the fights, or not confident enough to depict them properly, so he just avoids it.
At least KnY and JJK actually went all the way and depicted battles against strong enemies, which makes them still better by comparison.

>>282230495
>At least KnY and JJK actually went all the way and depicted battles against strong enemies
demon Slayer battles is just one guy getting his shit kicked in but still getting up rinse and repeat then spamming their super moves until one of them dies. shit is just saint seiya but prettier
jjk wants to be hxh so bad by making the characters fight in maths but since the writer is a hack he can't write hxh style fights

>>282230417
>Manga sales are irrelevant

One Piece: 100 million
Naruto: 100 million
KnY: 50 million
Berserk: 50 million
MHA: 40 million

All IPs that are popular overseas also have high overseas volume sales.
This makes it a valid indicator.
And since KnY and JJK have a similar number of volumes, they’re easy to compare.

>>282230544
Not really, fights in Kimetsu usually involved trying to get what the Demon Blood Arts actually does. "This one didn't die because you need to cut both of their heads at the same time. This one actually hides his true body. Akaza can feel intent." etc. Saying it's just spamming attacks is disingenuous.

>>282230584
Manga sales don't matter because manga don't sell like they used to and anime is more popular globally speaking

JJK is more popular in the West

>>282230637
>manga sell less
>anime sell less
>movie perform worse
>less wide audience appeal
Under what metric? Your group of buddies?

>>282230592
>fights in Kimetsu usually involved trying to get what the Demon Blood Arts actually does
that's also saint seiya also does
the fights are literally just one guy spamming his demon magic and another guy spamming his breathing magic until one of them dies
hxh fights are more varied

>>282230655
well the guinness world record for starters

>>282230407
He's completely right about Steins;Gate being mid though, these aren't opinions that need to be "overcome". He didn't come to that conclusion because he was trying too hard.

>>282230544
>demon Slayer battles is just one guy getting his shit kicked in but still getting up rinse and repeat then spamming their super moves until one of them dies
Honestly, most battles in HxH are the same way.
If anything, KnY is better at showing battles with real tension, where the MCs analyze the demons’ abilities and risk death if they take even a single hit.

>jjk wants to be hxh so bad by making the characters fight in maths but since the writer is a hack he can't write hxh style fights
JJK also has a more well-thought-out superpower system than HxH, and it actually reflects that in the fights. Sometimes contradictions do arise from it, but Gege manages to patch them up with notes between chapters in the volumes. At the very least, that’s far better than Togashi, who just ignores contradictions altogether.

>>282230407
Feels good to be a "Like it for what it is" chad.

>>282230698
>Shit opinion that only contrarians hold
>Not trying too hard
lole

>>282230661
>that's also saint seiya also does
Yes, it's good. Anyway let's have an actual discussion instead of just shitpost, let's use the movie since it's the topic of the thread:
Tanjiro can only have time to get what Akaza demon art actually does after taking time and seeing Tomioka fighting at full power. Then he needs to develop an strategy to actually fight him. Most fights in Demon Slayer aren't won alone, which is an important part of the appeal.

>>282230544
>shit is just saint seiya but prettier
And the problem?

>>282226339 (OP)
uhh... because it is?

>>282230637
What are you talking about? Manga is getting more attention in the West now than ever before.
These days, American comics have been driven out of Western bookstores, replaced by shelves full of manga.

>>282230700
>KnY is better at showing battles with real tension, where the MCs analyze the demons’ abilities
kny fights are literally just
>he's too fast, if i don't dodge he'll blow up my brains and if he blows up my brains, i'll be dead! his stance isn’t right, if i move my left ass cheek i might just have a shot on chopping his head
>the way he uses the breath of cum, fifth form semen overload it's like an art forn... if i'm not too careful he'd spray his juices all over me...
>JJK also has a more well-thought-out superpower system than HxH, and it actually reflects that in the fights.
not really. every fight just won by either the stronger guy overpowering the weaker guy or the weaker guys jumping the stronger guy. jjk are no different from dbz at least hxh fights is more than just one guy punching harder

>>282230689
That's just using data of online demand for a single year (2024 to 2025).

kny fights are so fucking trash, the animation is forced, the audio effects are garbage. i don't know how anyone cold enjoy this more than hxh or opm fights

>>282230148
not true, all my normie friends watch kimetsu but nobody knows what the fuck is a jujutsu

>>282230872
>he's too fast, if i don't dodge he'll blow up my brains and if he blows up my brains, i'll be dead!
Problem?
KnY properly depicts the devastating consequences when a human takes a clean hit from a demon’s attack. In most shōnen manga, they just wince in pain and that’s it.


>jjk are no different from dbz at least hxh fights is more than just one guy punching harder
In fact, JJK succeeds more than HxH at portraying tactical battles. In HxH, unless you’re someone like Morel, most fights are basically just Dragon Ball in a different form.

>>282230915
one of my favorite fights was dodgeball

>>282231156
Not all of my acquaintances, but more than half of them are watching KnY.
In quite a few cases, they’re even watching it together with their kids.
I really feel this series has gone mainstream over the past few years.
Even back when I was obsessed with Naruto in my youth, an anime title had never felt this close and relevant within my personal relationships.

Jeremy, just for you, regarding Spain.
Your prediction
>500k (full run)
The reality
>1.43 million on friday

>>282230915
Because most of the fights in HxH are dogshit.
The only good one was Chrollo vs. Zeno & Silva.
And even that got canceled by Illumi, so in the end nothing actually happened.
If it had been KnY, at least one of the three would have died in that fight.

>>282226339 (OP)
KnY is the most generic shounenshit of all time. Completely soulless.

I guess the zoomer retards who liked it have actually watched some more anime by now and are disenchanted.

>>282231333
>and are disenchanted.
So disenchanted it's performing even better than mugen train ww.

>>282231333
KNY is the least talked about of the popular series. Even Kaiju 8 anime is better known.

>>282231349
>mugen train

I haven't the faintest clue what that is.

>>282231401
Then you can obviously explain why it's about to become the best performing anime movie overseas, ever.

>>282231444
People are watching it because they have fond memories of it during coof not because it's good.

>>282231477
>it's not popular
>it's not talked about
>it's simply breaking box office records because its huge legion of fans
Any other goalpost you feel like moving?

>>282231333
It's easily better than most anime

>>282231333
calm down

So is your prediction still 270/280M worldwide

>>282231525
>It's easily better than most anime
Kid please watch anything that came out before 2020 before talking.

It's going to beat MT's whole run on a single weekend.

>>282226339 (OP)
just watched it and it didn't feel as much as a movie as mugen train. the action was good but the constant flashbacks really messed up the pacing. it felt like they made this movie in a way it could be cut up into a tv release easier.

>>282231401
Lmao this is just cope. KnY is everywhere

>>282226339 (OP)
I haven't watched KnY yet. Never got around to it when it aired. Doesn't feel like it's "bigger" than Death Note, Naruto or AoT. I can't into shounen these days so am I missing something essential here? Do you watch it for the grill?

>>282231319
I don't care about the outcome, I'm talking about the execution. Pick any fight in KnY and it's the most bland lackluster sequence with garbage audio effects that is trying too hard to be cool. Compare that to Genos vs Saitama and the difference is night and day

>>282230915
the only thing wrong with kny fights are flashbacks

Is he considerable an alpha male, if he also fucks Madaos?

Just watched it. The movie and series as a whole is hard carried by Ufotable and the soundtrack. If you treat it for what it is, you'll have a blast with it. Otherwise, it's painfully mediocre, insults your intelligence like the average shonenshit would and is soft as fuck because it was written by a woman.

Akaza, Shinobu, Douma and Giyu were K I N O.

>>282231408
You being tourist is so obvious
>>282231892
There is no point using it before all 3 are out because "ongoing" anime have different calculation than finished.

Beheading is the loss condition for all demons besides Muzan. The UMs have extra mechanics involved, but these all exist solely to pad out their battles with backstory — when their heads are cut off, they all lose to a different plot device. In Akaza’s case it made him become suicidal. In Douma’s and Gyoko’s cases they just skipped their big character expositions because they were irrelevant, just drop-in opponents for a single fight so their beheading gimmick was just making it hard to do. Koku looses the will to keep living. Only Akaza had any little bit of plot relevance, every other UM had none or almost none. It’s just a very shallow, abbreviated and poorly-written manga. Japanese fans like how advanced the use of language is, but we can’t appreciate even that.

I would really like to have a new official popularity poll for KNY after this movie...

>>282232544
This is the OST?

I mean, I could've figured after those two "theme songs" they released that everything would be this level of shit, but damn...

I wasn't expecting kino symphonic pieces like early DB or Saint Seiya, but to think it all would be commercial Sony branded slop

>>282227250
Those aren't themes, that's just shit directing. Those 30 minute flashbacks has always been KnYs bane. You're into the fight then it completely pulls you out. The demon's pasts can always be summed up in a single sentence or 10 second montage, not some crazy long winded sob story

>>282234817
Akaza wins followed by zenitsu giyu

>>282234116
/a/ likes CSM and they're even tsundere towards JJK but don't care about KNY outside of your little circle, sorry

Absolutely phenomenal fights interrupted by godawful flashbacks and flashbacks inside flashbacks. My god the fucking flashbacks.

>>282235186
/a/ likes the Quintessential Quintuplets. That's enough to know how shit /a/'s taste is

>>282235151
You are just a zoomer who can't stay focused, the only flashback who dragged was tanjiro father. Douma and kaigaku wasn't a sob story. Akaza flashback was good and necessary to see why he fucking decides to die

>>282226339 (OP)
if any of you actually went outside. you'd realize that's not true at all.

>>282234817
This was the last poll(from 2020)

>>282235620
Kanao's pink highlights...

Akasa's flashback was a good backstory for him but I think people mistake that for it not also hurting the movie as a whole having it jammed in there like that.

>>282235223
This isn't about focus it's jarring and makes for bad storytelling. Even in slower mediums like books, no author will ever throw a unrelated chapter in the middle of an action scene

>>282235881
If people thought that was bad... well they certainly won't like Iguro's weird backstory in the middle of Muzan's fight.

>>282235849
Just like Genya's, for her super mode.

>>282235881
That's the trouble with demon flashbacks that some people have had for ages.
Only when defeated are they free from Muzan's control and get their memories back
But now they're disintegrating and almost gone forever
I dunno
I don't think it can be helped.

>>282226339 (OP)
Is this the biggest blockbuster where a guy has to carry his waifu to the bathroom without batting an eye? I don't see many movies like that.

This is the biggest blockbuster where the wife has been taking her of her husband's shit when he's in a coma.

>>282231659
lmao Steins;Gate isn't good. I'm not a hardcore KnY fan but I wouldn't even but Steins;Gate above it quality wise.

>>282237195
Good job, I'd say.

The Akaza flashback killed the pacing completely, I was legitimately falling asleep. It's a good movie but that style of flashback is pretty annoying.

>>282226339 (OP)
>Biggest anime of all time
But that’s not FMA

Why are people mad about akaza flashback? It fully explain his motivation and the reason why he kills himself

I watched it yesterday, solid 10/10 but the Akaza flashbacks took me out of the vibe
>mfw walking out of the theater and seeing two girls in different groups both in Shinobu cosplay with mascara running down their faces
I don't understand how normies are still anime only in 2025, but I'm more surprised they didn't get spoiled up until now.

>>282226339 (OP)
i know this is bait but i took my daughter to watch this film and i've never seen her so happy

>>282238634
Some people really hate flashbacks, and villains with sad backstories, and it is a long 2 hour and 35 minutes on top of that, the final act being centered around a sad villain backstory would make that kind of people really mad no matter what.

I didn't mind it.

>>282235620
>tanjiro not even the most popular character in his own show

>>282238673
there were a couple women in my theater that had shinobu's haori too

>>282238634
I liked the flashback, but inserting it in the middle of a fight is just idiotic.
It's frustrating, it made me think
>can you just fucking die already?
And again I liked it, it's a good back story, I like the character, but it kills the pacing and doing it that way is just asking to get frustrated viewers.

>>282238634
I would say the length and that's a bit of an anti-climax for the movie.

>>282238673
Shinobu ran the show for a good amount of the runtime until she got rekt and it's easy enough to cosplay. Someone like Akaza and even Inosuke requires to be ripped.

>>282229804
kek, look at this cringe oldfag obsessing over word. watch some anime and stop seething.

>>282238907
everyone except the women requires you to be ripped

>>282227264
I went to Mugen Train alone because most people were hibernating during COVID. This time I went with a group of my friends and it was no different. Some of them complained about how they’d prefer an anime season over finishing the series with just movies though

I shit on KnY a lot because ultimately it is mediocre shit carried by Ufotable… but that movie was kino. Shinobu vs Douma was excellent but far too short. I wish she could get some hits in but eh she’s not a fighter, her speed is her strength but its just unimpressive against Douma. Akaza was ABSOLUTE GOD TIER and the highlight of the whole movie. Giyuu and Tanjirou’s tag team against him felt appropriate considering their strength levels. Even Zenitsu pulled through and was really cool. It clearly felt cinematic though unlike Mugen Train which had obvious episode cuts, not sure what anons earlier were talking about.

They showed the CSM trailer before airing, that shit will flop.

>>282239031
Forgot to mention the music during Shinobu’s fight and Giyuu slicing up Akaza was great. I dont actually like most of this anime’s soundtrack but some good songs in this film. The Lisa ending song sounded good as well

>>282238928
You'd need to be Rock-sized to cosplay Gyomei.

>>282239090
just be twink gyomei from before ubuyashiki found him

KnY is so masterfully crafted to be a big blockbuster anime. People think that Ufotable can just go unlimited budget works on any shonen and it will become just as massive but it is simply not the case. KnY does literally everything right, despite being utterly forgetable.

I HATE POPULAR THING!!
I AM THE COOLEST MAN ALIVE!

>>282235620
I didn't know that Zenitsu is the most popular character

>>282238757
Well great news, all the other UM’s are either pure evil or neutral at best, so no more sad sack flashbacks about them

>>282226788
>Still don't understand why he considered himself beat.
Because he realized tanjiro was a better fighter than him, and the only reason tanjiro couldn't beat him was the bullshit demon powers. So he decided to kill himself in the name of fairness.

>>282239544
My subbed showing was packed and it was early enough, my local teater avoids subbed showings if they can.

>>282239643
Not really the point of my post but you're right, he doesn't see any of them.

There's something about Kimetsu Yaiba animation that seems off to me. It's like watching super move animations but with more fps or that under all the fancy effects, the characters are just motion tweening idk.

>>282239544
Local spicplex has just one room for sub. It's over.

I’d say it works better in the manga because the backstory is self-contained to 3 chapters. If this was a TV format, it’d also work because you can cram it to one episode.

But this is Sotozaki that we’re talking about. The guy really sucks at pacing kimetsu better

Just saw it the other day. The people that watched it through camrips were robbed.

How come "popular = le bad" is still a thing here? Most of you people are 30~40yo neckbeards, don't you think it is already past the time to grow up mentally too?

>>282239544
unreal

This movie is so ass and it came with all my problems with the trashy manga. Stretching out scenes unnecessarily for backstories, uninteresting monologues galore, dictating EVERY SINGLE ACTION that happens on screen with voice over. The problem with this shit is that it's not even a movie, but the first 6ish episodes of a show pasted together, commercial breaks and cut to credits included. Absolutely lazy way of releasing this crap. I'm someone who believes you need to cut from the source material (comics and books) for an adaptation to a movie because it needs a beginning and end, a self-contained arc, and a propelling purpose that isn’t just setting up what's next. EVEN AS A TRILOGY. Every Lord of the Rings movie had that structure and each were standalone with a payoff. This movie doesn't care about that or resorts the movie format.

These things are different mediums and narrative arcs unfold completely different from each other. This movie has no sense of pace, no rising action, constant pauses to get flashbacks to a character that has been killed. Maybe if the movie had been structured in a way we get the generic sad backstory before a fight the emotional investment would be greater, but instead, the author adds it when the villain is about to die so it doesn't even matter.

Apart from the structure, the 3 main stories here are the generic sad shonen backstory for the protagonist and antagonist of each fight. This time around I would say the actual fights pale in comparison to what has come before, namely Tengen's fight. Some truly uninspired direction here and multiple times, in the climactic fight, there was actual still frames and in one of the two instances had very mediocre art. Just made a mediocre experience that much worse.

>>282240205
Wtf, the english dub is the worst of all dubs, other countries are decent at least

>>282226339 (OP)
I watched it today, and I've never seen the hall this full since Avengers: Endgame. Also, all zoomers.

>not finding yourself attractive

>>282226339 (OP)
I watched it today.
It was great, but it just felt like a very long anime episode. Maybe it says more about the quality of Kimetsu's anime. The only scene that really surpassed anime's quality was when Giyu awakened his mark.
Akaza's flashback really dragged on. I was sitting in that shitty cinema chair for 2.5 hours already (30 minutes of commercials at the start) and could only think about getting out of there.

This show will go down in history as the biggest attempts at mass gaslighting amongst anime fans, ever in history. So many influencers, so many fans, so many people tried claiming that this show was a masterpiece and people fucking believed them. All because of the animation from episode 19 going viral.

Behind all of that, is genuinely one of the worst written manga/anime in history.

I'm about to finish swordsmith village in my marathon before seeing the movie tomorrow. Good but definitely lower stakes than the previous arcs.

King of asspulls Tanjirou

>>282229760
Did they imply he became an angel from a demon at the end, is what I want to know.

>>282243730
No, he was ascending to a being on Muzan's level, not in terms of power just as a state of being. Basically overcoming his head weakness and making it so only the sun can kill him. Unless you mean his death. Then no, he dies and goes to Hell, it's implied that his family waited for him in Limbo to accompany him in Hell since they can't take him to Heaven. I don't know if it's a thing where loved ones can go to Hell for your sake to speed up the time you have to be in Hell for. Although considering Akaza's sins, it's probably in the millions of years considering the amount of lives he's taken.

>>282243730
it implied he gave up the demon blood/curse and reverted to a human, or at least attempted to
that's why muzan was part of the montage, yelling his name in anger, and why douma made it a point of mentioning akaza changed

>>282226339 (OP)
Almost like popularity ≠quality, Kimetsu no Yaiba has always been just one more battle shonen of many, it's serviceable but it's really nothing special, tldr, normalfags are dumb.

>>282243869
>it implied he gave up the demon blood/curse and reverted to a human, or at least attempted to.

All demons revert to humans when they die. It happening with Gyu/Daki as well.

>>282243859
wasn't Akaza a supreme gentlemen who only killed men?
surely Buddha is going to reward him a milder sentence compared to all other upper moons

>>282243903
except this time around, akaza was well on his way to regenerating and continuing on as a demon, "alive and well." Though I guess you could argue he was dead once his head was cut off despite continuing on, since he even claimed he lost at that point to begin with.
he died after he gave up and tried to revert out of it, not after getting a fatal blow

>>282243944
Yeah that's why I only said millions. Muzan is probably in the billions.

>Behind all of that, is genuinely one of the worst written manga/anime in history.
stop being such a hyperbolic contrarian, every season there are like 20 isekais that are a thousand times worse, it's just your average shonen story.

>>282243944
>>282243972
Funny since it's implied Muzan is in Avici, which is like super-hell

As a normie, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. A solid 8/10.

Can someone explain Akaza's compass thing? I'm still confused on what it does. Something about detecting fighting spirit?

>>282226339 (OP)
>Akaza
>born poor
>has to steal to survive
>his sickly father can't take the shame after one too many thefts and commits suicide
>gets saved by Keizo

>Keizo's local bullshit feud spills into dirty tricks and him and Koyuki are killed
>Akaza massacres the enemy dojo

>dies an unremarkable death to poison and accepts his fate in hell

So Akaza just gets fucked and is stuck in hell for all eternity with an degenerate like Doma because Muzan caught him on the worst day of his life?

>>282244349
Akaza became engaged in life and he'd probably spit on Doma's face in hell, I certainly couldn't stand the dude so far.

>>282243508
Innosuke by default due to the other two getting crippling injuries.

>>282244349
Akaza was literally the only somewhat plot-relevant UM in the manga. All other UMs existed as drop-in boss fights for their arc. In fact ALL demons aside from Akaza and Muzan only appear for their one battle and sent off with a flashback at death if they get even that much. For the major flashbacks like UM1 you can pretend that you’re getting into manga side-story and your learning about a new character but that’s just an illusion — those characters were never characters at all. This is just a super-rushed badly written manga.

>>282226339 (OP)

Being super popular does not make an anime good, just entry level. While entry level anime can be good, like Frieren, those aspects are not inherently related.

I mean, with that criteria the fast and furious movies, transformers movies and capeshit would be the epitome of cinema and we all know they are not.

Budget slayer is neither good nor bad, it´s mid. A super popular mid but mid all the same.

>>282244349
>>Akaza massacres the enemy dojo
>>goes straight to hell when he dies
He was fucked regardless, my dude
Even if justifiable, he already got his ticket to hell before becoming a demon
But yes, his circumstances were actually unfortunate as fuck, and served to make his situation infinitely worse

>>282226339 (OP)
IDC about movie opinions. I'm mad that Akaza basically killed himself over Tulpa hallucinations of his past human life's loved ones. Water Hashira and Tanjiro didn't actually beat him.

>>282244305
It detects your fighting spirit which it’s why he can dodge any attack easily, besides it serves as a magnet against his opponents where he will throw punches at you every single time until you get donut’d

Basically if you don’t have any motivation to engage in the fight and throw away any negative emotion towards him, the fight it’s yours, pretty much what his mentor taught him

>>282244967
that's exactly what made his demise so kino though
you will see something similar with um1 btw

>>282244917
He went to hell not because of the dojo, the manga makes it clear they deserved it by being comically evil which is shounen shorthand for "okay to be killed, thier lives don’t matter". He went to hell because he killed a named protagonist.

>>282244967
Tanjiro beat Akaza by his own standards, he spells out it for you.

>>282244967
Tanjiro and Tomioka won, they surpassed Akaza despise living short lives, he acknowledge that. After that, regenerating was beyond cheating.

So Akaza won’t ever kill women? Had he fight Mitsuri, he would have killed himself right away

>>282245009
Not really, Kokshibofags can't accept the fact he was fucked either way, while he did lose his will to push further he also mentions Muichiro's red blade was destroying his healing factor.

>>282245008
That’s obviously absurd, no other character has Compass Needle and very few out-stat Akaza, certainly not Tanjiro, and yet everyone seems to be able to fight just fine. This was simply an absurd plot-required event so that the good guys win and the plot can move forward, that’s all.

>>282245069
They won because the plot said so. It’s unbelievable to me so many can’t see such simple shit.

>>282245088
>certainly not Tanjiro
Tanjiro literally used a technique that is literally a hard counter to Compass Needle, watch slower.

I've never watched Demon Slayer before but my friends invited me to see this and visually everything looks good but for a movie nearly 3 hours long, 80% of that is spent on flashbacks for 3 fights, which wasn't what I was told Demon Slayer is like. In any case it was honestly kind of boring and I'm not quite sure what normies see in this anime that makes it so popular

>>282245078
No, he would just immediately incapacitate them because he’d have no interest in testing himself against them.

>>282245030
How can you not understand this series runs on Buddhist themes? Akaza was fucked from the day he killed those 67 men, there's no righteous killing in Buddhism.

The weight of a human life is undisputed in that belief, which is also why Tanjiro pleaded for Inosuke not seek revenge against the conductor all the way back in the Mugen Train because in Tanjiro's eyes the man hadn't become irrepressible yet if he is still alive after getting stabbed, and by the end of the series Giyu uses the same reasoning when Tanjiro temporarily becomes a demon, he tells everyone to hurry and kill Tanjiro before he kills anyone, so he isn't condemned.

>>282244349
Man I doubt every last person in a swordsman dojo was in on a well-poisoning. It makes sense it was one or a few people at the top trying to do it in secret because why the fuck would you stick around to learn swordsmanship from a well-poisoner that can't beat unarmed men.

>>282243944
I always thought it was implied that demons that turn into human form in their last moments are getting their sentences reduced by divine grace

>>282245130
I’ve read the manga you obviously have not. Selfless States gets past Compass, but Akaza was facing Tanjiro directly and paying full attention. A centuries-old battle maniac Hashira-slaughtering machine martial arts master so strong that he even impressed Kokushibo being the only demon EVER to be spared after challenging the UM1 spot — forgot ALL his experience, all his skill, all his monstrous stats, and just gaped at Tanjiro while he got his head cut off. Just absurd bullshit, childish plot contrivance to move the story forward. The arc is FULL of this shit, it’s embarrassing frankly.

Imagine making a big deal about killing without killing intent and not having the guy with an ability literally called "dead calm" do it.

I know that it's supposed to be accurate to the source material, but the amount of inner monologues and flashbacks really broke the pace of the fights in the movie, you start to notice it during Shinobu's fight and it gets really egregious during the Akaza fight.

>>282243859
>it's implied that his family waited for him in Limbo to accompany him in Hell
They waited on limbo only make Akaza remember who he is, the promise to accompany him to hell is only made there on the spot by Koyuki, and later you get a hard confirmation only she is down there with him.

Man people are going to be mean to CSM Reze when it performs like a normal anime

>>282245310
any water breathing user can learn to use that though

>>282245346
a hard confirmation in a comedy omake
please get less autistic if you're going to keep posting

>>282245185
For crying out…this is Shounen Jump slop, not an exploration of Buddhism. Did you not question WHY the dojo did something comically evil as POISON one old guy and a couple of kids to death? It’s not because it’s a lesson in Buddhism but because of JP moral law, very important in shounen, required moral cover to kill people off. The dojo members had to have DESERVED to die so that their lives can disappear and not matter in the narrative while also preserving the goodness of the revenger in the eyes of the reader.

Media literacy is fucking toast, it’s totally true,.

>>282245360
nah that's a giyu original

>>282245350
doesn't the movie have a completely different director/staff
what ruined s1 was the whole reddit cinematics crap instead of just adapting the series properly
they have the chance to make a decent movie now

>>282245371
A whole paragraph of utter nonsense, impressive. The series runs entirely on Buddhist rules for its entire moral compass and how afterlife works. For someone pretending to be intelligent, even claiming media literacy expertise, you don't know anything about what the series shows quite plainly for the reader.

>>282245365
Yes, it is a comedic omake, so? The fact is only Koyuki made the promise and Gotoge only drew her down there.

>>282245078
He specifically doesn't eat them, he would kill them in self defense.

Don't tell me the six eyed guy is gonna have a sad backstory too.

>>282245558
it’s just seething about his twin brother, sad my ass

>>282245558
No. He technically is responsible for his own tragedy. You may feel sorry for him though.

Hee hee

>>282245450
You are so ridiculously media illiterate in shounen that I can’t have this discussion with you. KnY follows JP moral law to the letter, even going so far as to make sure Tanjiro never even APPEARS to fight unfair, that is fucking shounen moral cover 101 and if you can’t see such a basic bitch representation of it I’m at a loss with you.

People won’t be prepared for this kino

>>282245115
Anon, everything happens because the plot said so, your complain is nonsense

>>282245558
No that’s it for sad backstories. Every other UM and Muzan pure evil or at best neutral individuals who were looking for more power/immortality

I really want to see this in theaters so I'm going to tomorrow after work

>>282228079
It is retarded, but the post about Tanjirou fucking Kanao and narrating it was the funniest thing I've read in ages, so it's worth it.

Akasa flashback ruined the pacing and was rather unnecessary.

>>282226339 (OP)
Rengoku's film at least had a general beginning and end. He was the star of the movie. Infinity Castle was very clearly multiple episodes in a regular season stitched together. I really liked Akaza's backstory, but my god by the time we got to it, I was already struggling to maintain my interest.

why are all of the UMs and muzan so zesty

Why were they incapable of making a good OP after Gurenge and Zankyosanka?

>>282245960
There can’t be an end like Mugen train if there are 3 ongoing fights

>>282244305
The compass reads the aura (fighting spirit/blood lust) of his opponents. It is basically a third eye, it can read/see his opponents intentions the moment they envision an action. So Akaza knows what is coming earlier than the action itself, he is able to then prepare and counter accordingly. Kinda like a future vision, that enables Akaza to match his opponents even if they are physically faster than him. It also eliminates any blind spots.

Tanjiro also believed it acted like a magnet, making it so Akaza's attacks always have great accuracy.

It is kinda like the See Through World, except Akaza's compass does get countered by the lack of blood lust/fighting spirit, while the STW doesn't.

Forgot to add. See Through World and Selfless State aren't the same thing. One can have STW and still radiate blood lust/fighting spirit.

The theater I went to had a lobby full of grieving teenagers who couldn't watch because it was rated R.

>>282246174
They couldn't force their parents to bring them in?

I gotta say the cope has been fantastic around this. It's breaking all the records

>>282246069
>>282244305
There's one extra part in that it automatically becomes as strong as it needs to counter as well. Which is why when Giyuu got his mark it just auto scaled with it. It's the perfect counter unless you can find a way to kill him without having any anger or you're just mother fucking flute ass

>>282245301
If you can't cope with the fact that Tanjiro blitzed Akaza then that's your problem. I enjoy seeing my MCs put in work.
> but muh 400 years of training
Cry about it. Breathing styles have a higher ceiling than demonic strength and Tanjiro literally had all the stat boosting power ups in that interaction.
> b-but that's unfair
Cry about it demontard

>>282246415
The funny part is that the only complaint they have so they can spam it to make their opinion valid, is the flashbacks. I think that’s the least important thing to complain about.

>>282246442
Personally I don't share this view. As in, I don't think the compass makes Akaza physically faster. Based on the things I said previously, my understanding of it is that Akaza's predictive abilities, granted by the compass, plus the aim-lock, also provided by the compass, is what enabled Akaza to match Giyu's increased speed immediately.

Did anyone else sense that Zenitsu's fight had the biggest effect on the atmosphere in the theater? I mean Tanjirou and Giyu vs Akasa was clearly the better fight, but there was a special feeling in the air when Zen showed up.

>>282246613
Its one of those things that is not an invalid complaint but at this point it's obviously just an anime social media tranny meme all the people with a beef with demon slayer are thoughtlessly repeating to each other now

My only real complaint is that the last flashback sequence drug on for an eternity. I had to piss, held it because I thought the movie was about over, sat through like 15 minutes of it before I caved and got up to go to the restroom, and it was still going when I got back.

>>282245301
Wouldn't the logical answer be that Akaza became over reliant on compass and got stunlocked by selfless state?

>>282246613
I mean, the direction for the movie wasn't great. Just look at how bad the transition to Douma's flashback was.

>>282246852
Akaza himself debunked that. My goat Tanjiro is just built different.

Did mangafags have to wait like 2 months to get back to the fight from the flashbacks? Loved the movie, but Akasa's flashback was far too long

>>282246989
That took just 3 weeks, the flashback in the manga was not that long

>>282245558
Yes but it's the worst one

>>282246989
It had only 1 and a half chapters dedicated to it. That's just Ufotable being garbage at pacing.

>>282245558
His backstory is the opposite, it paints him as a bitch and makes the reader happy he got what he deserved.

>>282230544

Saint Seiya is just Boku no Pico with fights.

>mfw they played a trailer for Chainshitman before the movie
Almost ruined the experience

That was a really fun movie. Not perfect, but basically what you'd expect as a continuation of the series. I read the manga when it ended but some of the details have faded.

Things I liked
>Yushiro mocking #6's disintegrating head was savage and easily my favorite part of the movie
>Soundtrack kicked ass and my theater's sound system was on point
>Stone monk guy steals every scene he is in, can't wait for him to shine in part 2
>The scenes with Ubayashiki's kids were unexpectedly great
>Akaza vs tomioka was great before the flashback
>Lots of good comedy moments interspersed

the only parts that I didn't like
>The Shinobu part was underwhelming. I really would have liked to see the conclusion of that story in the same movie.
>Akaza flashback was too much as everyone has said. Not sure why you would drop such long-ass flashback during the climax of an action movie.
>Michael Jackson sucks as a big bad

>>282240205
I bought tickets the day before I went and the sub only had 4 other seats sold, but day of the theater was probably at about 1/8 capacity when I went to a midday showing. Didn't even think to check how the dub was doing, but I did get jumpscared a dub trailer for Chainsaw Man and it was fucking awful.

>>282247220
Interesting, we got a studio ghibli fest trailer of Howl's moving castle dubbed, but JJK and CSM were in Japanese. Also my subbed theater was packed, even the shitty front seats

Actually I have a second gripe, our boy Zenitsu didn't get a shoutout from the crows when he bodied an upper moon, this is clearly discrimination because he isn't a hashira or the protagonist.

>>282231772
S;G isn't as good of an anime as you think it is.

this was adapted so well

>>282240747
better written than mha

>>282238920
you'll say oldfag but not normalfag?

What's up with the afterlife here? It was pretty jarring to see Akaza reject his demonic side only for him and his wife to embrace in hellfire immediately after. I get he still did bad shit, but damn.

>>282247425
>I get he still did bad shit
you clearly don't
he's been killing people regularly for over 100 years
there's no pardon for murderers in buddhism, they're very hardcore about punishment

>>282247187
this, I went to take a piss immediately just so I can avoid it

>>282247425
There really was no running from the things he did. But I'm sure he will be able to withstand it just fine with Koyuki.

>>282247481
>punished for murders committed under the effects of mind altering demon juice pumped directly into his brain by force after he attempted to resist
Mind you he was a thief, assaulted people because he was having a bad day, and killed an entire dojo over an act that could've been carried out by a single person, but kinda rude of the Buddha to tack on the other stuff.

>>282245080
i think he could of survived if he never lost focus, ran away and came back to finish them off
but yeah red blades fuck up any demon not named Muzan, especially being decapitated by them

>>282247611
KEK

I don't like how Tanjiro's sun breathing isn't delaying the regeneration like when he first started using it. Seemed weird.

>>282247704
that's never been a thing

Giyu got robbed. This should have been his moment.

>>282227200
Revue Starlight has a 12 episode show and movie. There's also recap movie, but only the last 10 minutes are substantial because they tease the movie. You need to watch the show because the movie is an epilogue.

>kills himself instead of helping them fight Muzan
Nice redemption faggot.

>>282247647
Thing is, he became completely delusional after regrowing his head, thinking he was unbeatable when in reality his body was fucked and he had almost no gas left. So he would try to fight instead of running, get hit one time and fucking explode.

>>282248039
He hated himself for not being there to protect his family the entire time

>>282248056
He could've done some good while still hating himself.

>>282248049
oh i agree he was most likely fucked if he stayed put and fought
we don't even know if he could use his BDA while regenerating from the red blades
he was still fast as shit though

KnY already bigger in Mexico than Dragon Ball, Goku is now a fad for boomers that don't even watch anime anymore

>>282247704
Anon that only happens when Nezuko's Blood or red blades are used.

>>282229990
>>282230014
>it's not really kny's fault, it's just the scapegoat for autists who are mad that midshit gets popular while their obscure niche kino is ignored by everyone
The same angry autists that would immediately start to complain if said niche shit they liked becoming popular inevitably attracted normies as a matter of fact.
In short, autists that unironically want to be angry and will find an excuse to be angry.

Okay I'm confused as hell about the Ubuyashiki family. Kagaya blew himself up along with his family in the previous season, since when did he have a son and how are his daughters still alive with 0 explanation? I've only seen the anime and feel I missed something.

>>282248152
spoiler test

Ubuyashiki had five kids, with only one being a boy.

>>282248152
Those are 2 different girls he was breeding his wife a lot

>>282248152
he had 5 kids
the boy was the black haired kid at final selection

>>282248201
more like his wife was riding his bedridden dick

>>282248152
At this point it wasn't said how many children he has. Already there was a black haired girl that was at final selection but not at the mansion explosion. Narratively that establishes and foreshadows the possibility of more than 2.

>>282248082
yeah he was still very fast, he would definitely die if he kept fighting, but I think it is plausible to imagine that he could cause injure and Sanemi's death since Sanemi was almost knocked out

>>282248190
>>282248201
>>282248213
>>282248226
wtf, there were 2 sets of female twins that look EXACTLY the same? I watched the series as it came out and haven't rewatched so my memory is definitely foggy. I had no idea he had more. Definitely makes the older twin's deaths feel cheaper.

>>282248263
yeah Sanemi was very close to being the Tanjirou of this fight(passing out mid battle)

yep it has a chance of beating Superman at the box office

>>282248218
Ubuyashiki was 23 when he died, with his youngest kid was 8...
Amane was 18 when the priest sent her and they met for the first time.
If you do the math, they must have done it pretty early.

What parts/fights does is cover? I'm gonna see it on monday, but i want to know

how long until we get actual kino? I'm looking forward for pic related and the final fight

>>282248410
I wanna see snakecuck die

>>282248400
Both of the insect bitches vs. #2
Zenitsu vs his Senpai
Tanjirou and Water nigga vs Akaza
Other Demon Slayers vs. randos throughout the film

>>282248443
Does it fully cover all 3 main fights?

>>282248472
UM 1 and 2 are the second film and Muzan is the third

>>282243023
It’s on my anime list like hero X

>>282248536
Well, at least the Akaza fight will be entertaining. And if 1 and 2 are gonna be the second one, that will probably be the worst, because they'll probably try to fix the fiasco of the finale

>>282248583
>the worst
how? UM 1 is literally the best fight in the series

>>282248543
Is this an edit or is there really a braless loli running around
Or is it actually a shota

>>282248630
Nezha’s dragon friend Ao bing takes over Nezha’s shota body in the movie

Not a edit

>>282248543
You people keep spamming this ugly movie everywhere that i had to wash the stain by watching Nezha 1979

>>282248618
Bunchof convenient crap to help the jobber characters win. None of the fights in this thing are memorable or close to good, but this one is just crap on top of crap, almost as bad as the spider lil' shit one. Only ones i liked were the Akaza ones, because of how little convenient crap they involved

I really liked the movie but the flashbacks still just ruin the pacing of demon slayer whenever it gets good.

Or just it's an absurdity that you know a fight isn't over until you get the demon's flashback.

>>282248734
>how little convenient crap they involved
main character literally gets the perfect counter to Akaza's ability at the end of the fight
that is far more convenient than anything that happens in the UM 1 fight

>>282248749
when I was catching up on the show for this movie I definitely fast forwarded through a few demon and hashira flashbacks. They are way overdone.

I was sad to see Shinobu and Gramps get such bad endings. Fucking absorbed and unassisted seppuku. That was fucked up

The only flashbacks that bother me are Tanjiro's.

>OH YEAH! My Dad knew a breathing technique and chopped off a bear's head effortlessly.
huh?

>>282248756
I'm not saying that one is free of crap, like, only the one with Rengoku is free of that, because it's the one they lost, but it has less shit than that one

>>282248775
Yeah but with tanjiro we're used to his (and nezuko's) asspulls since the beginnig as well as the fact that he gets beat to shit more than any character and still keeps going. The most asspull thing for me in the movie was Zenitsu pulling a new form out of nowhere.

>>282248775
Why didn't he remember that shit before? I feel like there were multiple fights where turning on Ultra Instinct could have helped.

>>282248093
>Only made $3.2M on opening day in Mexico while Broly made $6M and ended its run with $10.4M, Resurrection F $3.4M and ended with $6.1M and Super Hero opened with $3.7M and ended with $7.9M
Dragon Ball is the undisputed King of Anime in Mexico and it will stay that way no matter what overrated zoomer slop comes.

>>282248775
>>282248809
His dad did say that you can only do it after you've mastered the Hi no Kami Kagura. At this point he's sufficiently advanced to do that technique. Also, there's a very common theme in the show of extreme fights pushing characters to their limits and forcing them to the next level.

>>282248723
It’s not ugly

My friends were all talking about how many times they cried during the movie and I'm over here almost never crying to movies.
Sure, I knew stuff ahead of time having read the manga but still I hadn't done a reread since I first finished it and I just remember feeling "Aww" when a character I liked died and that's about it. Do you guys actually cry over characters or am I abnormal?

DBfag here, we hate Jeremy more than you guys do

>>282248816
I'm gonna go see it tomorrow, funnily enough, on Independence Day. KnY is big, tho, theye ve got the seiyuus for the premiere on the 11th

>>282248842
Your samefaggotry doesn't work, faggot. Dragon Ball is the King of Mexico, cope.

>>282248841
I teared up during Mugen Train but not this one. I didn't think it was that much of a tear jerker, really. But overall it depends on the movie and my mood.

>>282245151
>80% of that is spent on flashbacks
>which wasn't what I was told Demon Slayer is like.
Who the fuck told you about Demon Slayer.

>>282248841
I actually did cry when Daki decided to follow her brother into hell. I was sleep deprived and already emotionally hit when the decades old demon was still crying for her big brother in her last moments. I hate that out of all the literal hundreds of anime I've seen it was some shallow battle shonen that was the only one that made me cry but to be fair, Daki's VA fucking dominated the role.
The only part that really moved me was Zenitsu's master in the afterlife telling him he was his pride and joy, but I didn't come close to crying or caring emotionally about any other part in this movie.

>>282248816
Remember your predictions, NOW
>Mexico
>$3-5M. No anime has ever opened above $6M there.
Seems like it's going to btfo another prediction of yours.

>>282248854
I saw it yesterday, but only because my female friend dragged me into this and it only has one week on the screen before it's out so FOMO is at an all-time high.

I didn't like this movie one bit because it was full of flashbacks interrupting the actio , superfluous dialogue that assumes the audience are stupid and constant character rotation between fights. The credit rolls and commercial breaks killed it for me too.

You might like it, though. If you already like the series. I didn't.

>>282246785
Nope. Thankfully there were like zero Zenitsufags in my theater. There was more reaction to Shinobu's death than to his fight.

>>282248900
I'm actually right there, lmao. Infinity Flashback opened with $3.2M. Broly opened with $6M and ended its run with $10M. Unless you're something as culturally ingrained as Dragon Ball, no anime opens with $6M or above.

>>282248826
It's ugly as fuck and Chinese is an ugly-sounding language.

>>282248921
>only because my female friend dragged me into this
Literally the exact same reason why i'm watching ti, but i don't worry, because i'll make her watch the Chainsaw Man one

>>282248944
>I'm actually right there, lmao.
That was your whole weekened estimate... wrong as usual...

>>282226339 (OP)
Stfu

>>282248816
>>282248944
>>282248957
And, by the way, you are comparing SINGLE DAY with overall weekend. These is what broly actually did, per day
Friday (Jan 11) $1.8 million
Saturday (Jan 12) $2.9 million
Sunday (Jan 13) $1.8 million
Seems like kimetsu really is more popular than DB in mexico after all!
you should check your sources more often.

>>282228350
I've stopped accepting that reasoning because no other genre in any other country treats their 8-16 year old audience like their dementia ridden lobotomites. I'm pretty sure its just a shitty writing technique used to pad out the length of a chapter/episode. Harder to have to draw/animated more fighting then to have a million static close up shots of a characters repeating information we've just seen and just heard from another character.

>>282248957
Not really. Anime movies in Mexico tends to be frontloaded too. That is, they make nearly all of their money on OW followed by a decline. Even Dragon Ball is no exception. Super Hero made $3.7M on opening day then dropped off.
>>282248954
I'm pretty much on the same boat. I don't like the direction where Chainsaw Man is heading in the manga right now, but I still liked Part 1, so I'll probably give it a shot by October because there doesn't seem to be much options.

>>282248985
Are you even mexican?

so jeremy is mexican the whole time??? i thought he always said that KNY only popular on 3rd worlder?? yet the only place KNY is not no.1 is mexico, that shitty country???

>>282249007
No, the funny part is that it's no1 in mexico, per box office performance, he's mad about that too.

>>282249007
wait >>282248985
so even KNY destroy anime record there.
why jeremy always lying??

>>282248985
Broly didn't make $1.8M on opening day in Mexico, get your facts straight lmao.

>>282248995
>no other genre in any other country treats their 8-16 year old audience like their dementia ridden lobotomites
*Laugh in Webtoons

>>282239401
Holy shit. Gonna make this guy an offer of like $5 & tell him to kill himself lol

>>282249024
>jeremy
>not understanding charts
The perfect combo.
by the way, this is the source for its whole weekend
>https://atomix.vg/dragon-ball-super-broly-arraso-en-la-taquilla-mexicana
It did 123 million peso throughout the weekend (6 million USD), not on a single day, RETARD.
And kimetsu has probably overtaken this weekend already if it did 3 million in a day.

You Mongoloids don't understand how cultural impact works. Movie ticket sales don't mean shit and thai conversation is pointless because you fags aren't even mexican

>>282249024
thats a week, retard. its say at the table.
the fuck???

>>282249100
>more people showing up to the movie doesn't mean shit!

>>282249100
who the fuck care about your opinion. conversation didnt bring money.
and you may just based that on your own shchizo mental illness.

That's more of a consequence of gooks directly copying shounen manga down to the annoying minutia in the writing, so I file manwha slop in the same folder as shounen.

>>282249069
>text of cope
Shut up and read the chart, retard. It made $6M on OW, that is, Friday/Saturday/Sunday as per The Numbers and Box Office Mojo. I don't care about your third party sources. Then for Week 2, it dropped off by -75% because anime movies don't have staying power in Mexico.

>>282249116
Yes, dumbass, sales numbers mean shit compared to cultural impact
>>282249123
Whoc ares about yours, fag? Also, thai shit is literally about box office numbers, you absolute dipshit, and i base it off of being in México, you undeniable retard

>>282249024
This is some insane mental illness.

>>282249140
I know english is hard for you, but you are agreeing with me.
Kimetsu = 3.2 million on FRIDAY
Broly = 6 million WEEKEND
Kimetsu is performing better already and will have a way better box office.

>>282249140
retard

>>282249152
>muh cultural impact
biggest anime/manga property in the world currently

>>282249175
That's still Dragon Ball retard

>>282249140
retard. did you even graduate 3rd grade????
do you have tumor on your brain??
did your father hit you so hard as kid and now you have disability???

>>282249189
>gacha money
May as well just say pokemon instead.

>>282249175
One Piece is, and still not big enough outside Japan. Man, your dumb ass is slower than i tought if you think KnY has made an impact as big as Dragon Ball in México

>>282249189
he said currently, dumbass.
KNY IC make 400-450 M INTERNATIONAL (no japan). while DB movie never reach 50M. lol.

>>282249220
shut up chainsawman tranny

>>282249220
Seems like only boomers who don't go to the cinema care about it anymore.

>>282249221
it's a little over $200 million outside of Japan atm

>>282249163
Cope more, faggot. Opening weekends in Mexico tend to be frontloaded, so Thursday (sometimes Wednesday) and Friday grab a fat chunk of the pie thanks to rabid fans who show up first. Anime films, especially Dragon Ball, are even more skewed because diehards rush in immediately.

So if Broly pulled $6.08M for the whole weekend, then Opening Day alone was very likely in the $3M-$4M range, with the rest spread thinly across Saturday and Sunday.

Dragon Ball is the King of Mexico and it will stay that way too. I don't give a shit about your third party sources, I only care about The Numbers and Box Office Mojo.

>>282249229
Nice comeback, retard, go wipe your ass now
>>282249232
Nah. You see kids doing Dragon Ball shit still, not whatever crap they do in KnY

>>282249239
well. i talk about TOTAL gross estimation

>>282249243
>most likely
>can't give a source
>frontloaded went from weekened to a single day
Can't wait for saturday's update to destroy DB's weekend BO record there too.

>>282249244
hahahahahaha. if you live in shithole country. yeah, also boomer and retard fightfag still talking about DB.

So why has the conversation shifted to the Mexican box office now?

>>282249290
>muh db
>gets btfo'd in mexico, db country
Because it's funny seeing jeremy make a fool of himself.

>>282249272
>shithole country
The US?

>>282249243
your source and the BOX OFFICE MOJO is VALID. you are the one who cant read it./ retard.

the fuck??? your feeling dont matter about FACTS.

>>282249262
You gave a third party source outside of what Box Office Mojo and The Numbers confirmed.

If the whole weekend is $6M, then Day 1 being only $1M like your dumbass say would mean Saturday + Sunday somehow did 5x more than Opening Day. That's not how anime releases or Mexican box office patterns work. Anime crowds show up instantly, not casually drifting in on Sunday like it's some telenovela. That's why $3M-4M Day 1 makes sense, and your $1M cope is just fanfic accounting. Shut the fuck up retard lmao.

>>282249315
retard.

>>282249315
>hat's not how anime releases or Mexican box office patterns work.
Don't ever bother saying that beacuse you have no fucking idea how any box office in this world works.
Friday is NEVER the most busy day, because people have to work, and that holds true everywhere.
If it did six million, then the bulk of it will be on saturday, just like everywhere else.

>>282249315
Dude that doesn't know how to read a simple chart keep saying retarded shit, more news at 11

>>282249140
i dont know how jeremy cant even read this simple table. its said above that its WEEKEND book office perfomance with the table inside written WEEK 1 to 3.
NO DAILY gross or written text DAYS at all on full image

>>282249140
or this image clearly written with WEEK. WEEKS. WEEKEND all over.

>>282249344
>retard doesn't know how anime movies run in mexico
Dragon Ball isn't My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 or some weeb movie that largely appeals to nerds like Demon Slayer, it's a cultural nuke. Fans don't wait for Saturday, they SPRINT to Friday and crash the ticketing sites. In Mexico (and much of LatAm), anime and capeshit films are frontloaded as fuck. Opening day outgrosses Saturday, exactly because it's appointment viewing.

Shut the fuck up, retard lol. Dragon Ball is the King of Mexico and that has been the case for over 30 years now.

>>282249396
why are you crying??? its just cartoon

>>282249396
well not anymore

here is daily update from BOX OFFICE FORUM:

Friday update for Infinity Castle: 92.8M lc ($5.03M) and 1.18M tickets

>>282249443
only 2 million left for the record. and still have saturday and sunday for opening weekend.

>>282249443
>BOX OFFICE FORUM
If it's not Box Office Mojo or The Numbers, it doesn't matter.

Dragon Ball is the undisputed King of Mexico and it's been that way for 30 years now and counting. Only unironic retards think Demon Slayer is bigger than Dragon Ball and you're an unironic retard.

>>282249469
Shame it's about to lose its box office crown then.
Just like USA and mewtwo strikes back.

>>282249478
>Only made $3.2M in Mexico in 2 days
Dragon Ball = King of Mexico
Pokemon will also likely stay unsurpassed so = King of America

he will be even more delusional tomorrow

>>282249495
>already beat mewtwo's first day
>did your whole weekend prediction on friday
60-70 million opening weekend confirmed by the way.

>>282249469
retard. you cant even read simple table. and cant count beyond 10.

>>282249515
Legs >>>> OW
What made Mewtwo the King of America isn't how much it made on OW but its god tier legs at the end of its run running all the way from the start of November to December
This movie won't Kass beyond one week lmao

>>282249547
If it gets a 60-70 million weekend, it's not only doing 83 million, it's pulling above 100.
Retard. Keep coping about this on monday once the box office comes out, also once DB loses.

>>282249515
It made $33M on OD in America then it fell $23 million fell short of Thunderbolts, lmao. Saturday College Football hurt it and Sunday NFL will hurt it even more before Jordan Peele lays the final blow on Friday.

Mewtwo will forever stay the King.

>>282249593
Dude, this is normal ass data, available everywhere
Friday (May 2nd):
$31.5 million (includes previews)
Saturday (May 3rd):
$25.6 million
Sunday (May 4th):
$18.9 million

>>282249593
mewtwo only made 31m opening weekend, dumbass. and 83 total.
KNY will destroy that number.
HIM is not Jordan peele's movie, he didnt direct or write. and will open 20M next weekend.

>>282249631
OW is irrelevant, the true test is if a movie has legs because that shows it can still continue to make money and that's how Mewtwo ended up making $85M. It had god tier legs. Infinity Castle won't last beyond Week 1.

Him is still produced by Jordan Peele, so his name alone sells. And it's a football-themed horror movie dropping deep into NFL season, that's another killing blow lmao.

>>282249666
If it does 60-70 million, then it's beating it no matter what.
The thunderbolts had shit for legs and it still crossed 100 million.

not everything that is milked has to be good,
See what they did with Persona 4/5 anime

>>282249699
Made $33M OD
Fell short to $20M or some shit because of College Football
And Sunday NFL will hurt it even more
Thunderbolts actually had legs, it ran from May all the way to August and capeshit is normalfagcore. This movie won't last beyond Week 1 in America lol

>>282249756
>Made $33M OD
that includes Thursday previews you retard

64B/$435M as of SAT WW. First ever 60B film. Will be 69B by Sunday.

32B yen from Japan
32B yen from Overseas.

onward Overseas will surpass Japan's income.

>>282249803
>64B/$435M as of SAT WW.
Is it actually going to overtake MT?

>>282249788
Still $33M Mewtwo will stay the KING
>>282249803
>no sources
As always. Also...
*blocks your path*
Nothing personal, nerd

>>282249756
lol. retard who always wrong why you keep move the goalpost. it will make 100M easily on US.

>>282249666
>It had god tier legs
2.7 isn't God teir legs
God tier is Top Gun Maverick legs 5.66

>>282249818
already if you count as yen.

>>282249835
That would mean it has god tier legs which anime movies don't have in America and they don't have staying power beyond OW. Except of course Mewtwo.
>>282249839
Still more legs than any anime movie ever had.

>>282249848
I mean dollar, like, damn it actually has a shot at 500 million.

>>282249853
it has a high chance of over $600 million and a chance of beating Superman

You'd know just how much a movie actually made when Wikipedia updates, because it gets its box office figures from Box Office Mojo and The Numbers. Not third party sources like Reddit or Twitter.

>>282249868
Most hilarious result considering these threads.

>>282249851
it will make 70M on opening weekend. retard. 100m is easily achieved
retard.

>>282249853
lol 500M is long gone as projections. it will got 600M easily. with FRANCE and Germany still open next weekend. and japan can squeeze another 40M.

>>282249868
i remember when jeremy arguing that f4 and superman will take and cut KNY IC box office and bury them internationally. instead, KNY IC will likely surpass them easily.

another jeremy retard curse

I wonder just how much it'll make on Sunday considering this movie got its earnings cut by $10M because of College NFL and it had ratings that set a new record. Sunday NFL will be worse, last week, it had one of the highest viewership since 30 years and The Conjuring actually bled, lmao. It's still bleeding thanks to the NFL. Anime movies are even more fragile, so this will be ugly.
>>282249909
It got its earning cut by $10M because of College Football and Sunday NFL hurt it even more. That's the one little detail box office projectors and Redditors never takes into account, lmao.

>>282249967
retard
true Friday without Thursday previews was $21.5 million
Saturday was $22.5 million

>>282250028
Still $33M and still got its earnings cut, cope some more nerd. The NFL aka the CHAD Games is about to begin soon. The Conjuring didn't come out clean and neither will a niche movie made for nerds. It's actually more vulnerable because The Conjuring has casual appeal unlike it, lmao.

>>282250066
>>282249967
bruh, you are mexican. who live online 24/7.

>>282250066
just admit you got absolutely btfo
instead of lying to yourself
it's pathetic

>>282250092
Shut up, faggot. College Football came and ate $10M of Virginmetsu's lunch money and Sunday NFL will steal more of its lunch money. You can't beat the Chad.

retarded

>>282250066
>does more on saturday than friday
>70 million weekend basically confirmed
Oh jeremy.

>>282250258
>more cope
Made $33M as reported by traders (and that's the only thing they care about btw) and got its earnings cut short by College Football aka the Chad Thundecock Games. Sunday NFL will be even MORE ugly because that's the biggest normalfag draw.

You can't outrun Chad, virgin.

>>282250306
>Made $33M
... with 11 million in previews from other days, yes.
And everything drops on sunday, just look at literally every movie released this year.
Your predictions, as usual, were wrong.

>>282250321
>with 11 million in previews from other days
Sorry, virgin. Traders (aka industry folks) ONLY give a shit about the reported $33M Friday figure, and Sunday is going to be a bloodbath because of the NFL. This is my favorite little detail because box office projectors NEVER takes into account how sporting events might affect viewing.

Virgins can try to catch but they will never outrun Chad.

i feel sorry for his parents

>>282243173
Yes. She marries the MC.

It's funny how Jeremy was wrong about everything

>>282250521

>>282250569
Still coping, still crying. Still samefagging like the little Discordautist.
>b-but $11M previews!!
Traders don't give a shit about muh previews. Virgins don't get that this is standard practice. Marvel, Pixar, horror films, anime, they all do it. Nobody in the industry cares, because it's part of the game. That money is lumped into Friday grosses. And Saturday, it got hurt by College Football and Sunday, the NFL will hurt it even more.

Sports are a real box office killer, but projectors don't factor them in and just assume a normal weekend pattern. NFL Sundays are a MONSTER. A big game can pull in annaverage 20-25 million live viewers in America, way more than most Hollywood movies pull in a whole weekend.

Virgins can try to catch up but they will never outrun Chad. Chad and Stacy aren't gonna go sit through a 2.5 hour anime with a Japanese rat screaming and crying for his jobbing Japanese rat pals when the Cowboys, Packers, and Chiefs are playing.

>>282250796
>blah blah blah I'm wrong but will never admit to it
Tiring, you aren't a trader, you are discussing a box office, and its friday box office was 22 million.

>>282250814
Cope MOAR, Discordautist. Traders don't give a shit about muh previews and they haven't for year. Studios stack screenings on Thursday nights (and sometimes even earlier in the week). That money is lumped into... Friday grosses.

So when a movie does $33M on Friday, that figure includes previews. Industry niggas don't separate them in the headline number, they just compare Friday-to-Friday across movies.

Sports impact is real. The NFL doesn't give a shit if you’re anime, Marvel, or horror. It takes viewers away across the board. That's my favorite little detail because projectors rarely EVER bakes it in.

You wil never beat Chad, virgin.
