MAIN POSTER OF MANGA

~ STORY THEORY ~
The world is full of Demon , the Anti-heroic character . These Demons have it all . May it be infinite life , no signs of aging , insane power and some even have special techniques known as Blood Demon Art. So where there’s a shadow , there’s always light . so in the light , we have Demon Slayers . Pretty simple , the ones who slay the demons.
RANDOM PHOTO MAYBE ?
Our Protagonist , named Kamado Tanjirou , belongs to a poor family . A family that burns and sells charcoal in the nearby town to make ends meet. Now things cant go as smooth as they are or else there won’t be any Shonen essence isn’t it ?
One day , the wind was furious , night was dark and for some reason , the villagers are too nice . So , one of them offered Tanjirou shelter , and reminded him that demons lurk around in the dark .
Well they are kind of weak against sunlight , like vampires. So yeah , on that night a Demon attacked and killed all the members of his family . his mom and 5 or 6 other siblings who died .
DEAD ALL ARE DEAD !!
But , for a plot twist , one of her younger sister named Nezuko , was actually predetermined to be alive as her body was not out cold.
Tanjirou puts her on his back and rushes to the nearby hospital . To his surprise , her sister was exposed to Demon blood . And is a Demon now . that’s how they multiply anyway . But then an elite member of Demon Slayer Corporation appears.
NEZUKO DEMON ?
Tomioka Giyu , A Hashira , tells him that if he wants to protect his sibling from others he will have to join Demon Slayer Corporation .

~ Movie Theroy ~
The Main focus of Kimetsu No Yaiba movie revolves around a train . This train is suspicious as there have been 40 people , who went missing . Few Demon Slayers were sent but all went dud . So in this train our main protag and his friends hover on the train to find the answers they seek . There they meet the flame Hashira , Rengoku . And embark the beginning of a nail biting , thrill filled animation . And story line will take you to the edge of your seats.
A TRAIN ? Hmmmm…. SUS !!
The kimetsu no yaiba movie serves as the bridge between season 1 and season 2 . But this doesn’t hinder the fact that it still would’ve been a bad -ass stand alone movie . The movie has twists and turns , not sure you would like , but sure makes the story gripping and full of mysteries .
Once They cleared the train mystery a new problem in the form of upper – moon 3 , AKAZA , arrives on the scene .
AKAZA
And you’ll notice a freking 20 minute full showdown of crazy animation and jaw -dropping exchange of blows between Akaza and Rengoku.
Although it’s a must watch , but that simply doesn’t mean ,it’s the best. The animation is jaw dropping , the fight choreography is good as it is and the fights are fast paced and not prolonged . Kimetsu No Yaiba movie focuses on Akaza more than the initial vilian, and it more or less shifted the whole meaning of the movie .
The second problem was that there weren’t enough music , new in the sense . The reused GURENGE-LISA and added HOMURA-LISA at the end was a soothing sight.
Although the movie was fast paced and there was no need of music ,but no one dislikes a good music in the background. The movie is a good one timer, but the story board makes it hard to say its the best , the ending could have been handled better , and there wasn’t any such ‘Bridge’ that we talked about earlier.
~~ SAYONARA~~
In my views it’s a good one timer and this will set your heat ablaze if you watch it !
Okay This was Aarima, we are Animastic and you are fantastic
