THEY SAY IT'S MID

so apparently this video is about why Demon Slayer sucks five reasons Demon Slayer sucks I feel like man people are probably just gonna go based off story lines mainly because if I'm being honest Demon Slayer as a story line as a story or a plot it's not really that great like it's probably mid to good but when it comes to the animation the animation and the fight the fights of the animation bro it goes completely crazy so let me see it is not a secret that Demon Slayer is second only to Moses when it comes to splitting things in half as its fandom is akin to water and oil set on fire yes it is the bestselling manga so far a very good looking show and my own door into YouTube but God damn it it sucks on so many levels hello comrad my name is mAh come get yourself a beverage and sit down with me we got a tough pill to swallow before in the show with actual facts and constructive arguments the warning has to be made we are going BS deep and spoilers are very much present in this video what anime is that I don't you know what I don't even want to know first Troublesome part of the anime shows his face early on and becomes more apparent as the story develops tangero kamado AKA our main character who is often criticized for being too kind crying a lot or being a marry sue for not taking any else after he becomes a Slayer for me that's to be honest he not really I feel he's not really wrong on that all fine and I've talked about it already in one of my previous videos even though he's kind demons are still slain crying is just part of his personality that doesn't affect anything and him beating everyone dude it's a Shen regardless of how it's structured we all know he's going to win one way or another my beef is that I find his character completely unbelievable and as a result unrelatable because my moderately sized brain can comprehend how the combination of his backstory and what he went through manifests in his subsequent Behavior prime example episode 2 the section where he buys a basket for nezo you mean to tell me that this is how a person who just lost everything act you realize he just dug five grapes in the Frozen soil which is an achievement in and of itself as you need some L infus shovels for that proceeded to drag five mutilated corpses of his mother sister and three brothers there buried them and went on his way to buy a basket next day because otherwise his sister will turn into a pile of Ashes a regular [ __ ] Thursday he should have had a thousand yard stare complete apathy or some sort of freak out because hello your world just turned upside down most of your family is dead the remaining one is now a demon who you didn't even think existed and you just stand up look back and move forward that's what people do in the dentist office not when their family is murdered seriously L he looked more miserable after a training session with some kids okay let's slow down for a second and consider that him acting normally is not a sign of psychopathy But A coping mechanism instead the brain is a very funny thing that some people even live their entire lives without and it may deal with trauma in a plethora of ways like ignoring it completely until a certain stimulus is introduced muan for example remember how he reacted to his smell in the city those were emo the rage the out of disregard for food and his own safety pushed him to face an opponent who could have clapped his cheeks instantly killing innocence which no doubt triggered some memories and a rush of adrenaline so severe his dead sibling had to calm him down thus his behavior make more sense now no it's just a half-ass mental gymnastic to attempt to explain a half-ass piece of writing secondly we have another thing that contributes to my Detachment from the story everything is shallow the World building the plot the characters with a few exceptions it just falls apart the minute you apply any amount of logic I swear I feel like a four-year-old kid continuously asking why this why that since one contradiction followed the other you see I can believe anything as long as it makes sense within the story that's why I don't mind watching sci-fi High fantasy or whatever this is here even the fundamentals of the exposition are shaky at best because what we're told does not up with what we see nor with historical precedent nobody believes in demons sure the events of the story take place during an industrial boom in Japan I've been I've been kind of questioning that nobody believeing in demons like yeah you got the Demon Slayer cor you you got the Demon Slayer Corp yeah obviously fighting off demons but what about the people how do people not know about demons knowing that Mur that tragic crazy murders happen practically every night a demon comes up demons appear at night they're constantly trying to go feed on humans and you're constantly saying demons don't exist I don't know for some re I don't know it's just kind of confus it it just seemed kind of a little bit off it was it was a it was a little bit off for me at first and when people started to move into the big cities adopt Western practices and still a little bit off me and everything Supernatural but but but this is all according to our history books which don't include a millennia of demon slaughtering people well not like they have any records of it apparently but that doesn't mean it wasn't happening which begs the following question if Japanese already have Yokai slon forl and this [ __ ] has been going on for centuries why in the world would they stop believing in demons when they have literal family members who survived an encounter with them there is no internet hardly any press and most people survived in world would they stop believing in demons when they have literal family members who survived an encounter with them okay so they believed in Demons back then but now they don't yeah I don't know wait yeah now I think yeah de muan is over a thousand years old he has an entire demon Army and yet you mean to tell me nobody believes in demons nobody like demons practically go out every night feeding on humans you mean to tell me nobody believes that demons are real I I don't know what be going I don't know what be going on there is no internet hardly any press and most people marinate in their own tight communities making it nonon impossible to get a different perspective as you don't have access to any other information same thing was flot in those who participate in its development tell me if this sounds familiar special abilities kid fights progressively stronger enemies to save his loved ones and destroy the main bad guy with the help of a colorful cast of quirky for the sake of being quirky characters whose mostly terrible attitude is justified by their tragic past at the fact that without DMC no progress would have been made on killing muan and this clown Fiesta turns into a child of Prophecy garbage which immediately dimin clown Fiesta turns into I didn't like the joy boy twist at all a child of propy garbage which immediately diminishes the value of everyone involved as everything they have achieved is thanks to our one and only there is no complexity here we're being presented with this bigger than life conflict that lasted through dozens of generations and affected tens of thousands of people only to see a great school level squabble with flashy moves and no strategy at all seriously this next complaint I have is so vast and expansive that I have to divide it in two everybody's done like legit from individuals to their respective factions there's hardly anyone with nikq above three digits let's start with the lesser of two evils the Demon Slayer core I've made a full video on the subject a while back so I won't go too in depth but I will sprinkle some new thoughts on the matter firstly the recruitment process they look for individuals whose life was ruined by demons and train them to become Slayers makes sense you aren't going door too like some Girl Scouts asking people to give up their life fighting a threat they didn't know existed what doesn't make sense is the subsequent training and examination process who trains them these no names can't all be trained by hashiras so are they self-taught there is no standardized routine no textbooks on demons hell only a choice few get taught breathing techniques which is basically the only thing that allows humans to compete with anything above lowlevel Muppets no [ __ ] you lose 90% of your Slayers before they even become one because they're sely not prepared oh and speaking of the test you're going to send some teenage newbies to fend for themselves for an entire week on a mountain top full of thirsty blood suckers with no supervision so they can show you that they're able to fight for seven nights traes with no backup or rest well better get used to that soon Mount natuma guys won't let me lie except they will because they're [ __ ] dead not a single figh in Demon Slayer lasted longer than one night once you engage a demon you either die or don't in which case you are transported to a dedicated healing facility and do not receive new orders for month moreover the exam site is not monitored in case there is a demon who's overstepping his dietary boundaries it sure would have been nice to have a dozen raki students alive for a bit longer along with Untold hundreds who faced a challenge they weren't supposed to here's why this exam fundamentally sucks Yu who didn't kill a single one of these Schmucks turned out to be I seeis for this sabito who cleared the entire place better than Makarov just died to some [ __ ] chongas then we have the actual missions you get a Navien buddy who guid you in the general direction of trouble a set of overhyped clothes that don't protect [ __ ] in an RGB sword on the house at least so you can go and kill some demons solo no backup weapon no medkit no Intel in advance you have to rely only on yourself to conduct an investigation and talk to local people which you were so passionately taught during your training oops you weren't and unless plot Almighty was generous with some extra abilities or fancy clothes you are dead the thing is I would have forgiven most of what I've talked about if Demon Slayer core was like a 100 years old but they've been doing the same [ __ ] over and over again for centuries and we all know what that's called all right now to the only person who eclipses the combin stupidity of whole Slayers M on the demon daddy or Mommy depending on how he feels this particular D if the core is not looking for a way to stop the demon plague the Smooth Criminal is providing them with every opportunity to put an end to this to be honest from what I know mostly about Demon Slayer is Anime and manga muan is trying to find a way to walk on Beyond sunlight there's only two ways he could do that he could create demons and one of them demons could come out Conquering the sun with which if y'all watched the last season nezo did or the blue Spider Lily which is apparently a flower now for some reason I felt so confused about the whole flower thing because M because of what it showed mu being sick from a thousand years ago yet a doctor out of nowhere used a flower a flower to heal him it it took a minute to work but after a after a few minutes maybe an hour he somehow gained super strength he somehow like he he just gained a lot of super strength able to transform his body he just turned into a demon so my whole thing on my whole thing is how does a flower a blue spider how does I don't I don't understand the blue SPID part how does a flower turn someone into into a demon it must be some type of ancient flower I they didn't really explain it well all I know is a flower turned a human into a demon and he became Immortal for over a thousand years he's been slaughtering humans has an entire demon Army all this from a flower it just seemed confusing to me at first how nothing about don't get it twisted Demon Slayer still is my favorite anime but it's because the animation D don't don't get it twisted his enemies for example yeah if you didn't notice he doesn't go around killing Slayers or setting up hunting parties instead he enjoys his cosplay Hobby and lets demons take care of the rest right he does have the side gig of going after a certain family but since he still hasn't finished them off in in a good few hundred years now it's not that important for him I guess seriously though dude has only one goal in mind Conquering the Sun that can be achieved through consuming a demon with such an ability or getting ahead of this blue spider lily flower both of which he pursu so religiously that he forgets to check NE and apparently the blue oh and the blue spidal L as well I don't think they explained it among her but apparently somebody I think I see somebody on YouTube explain it it was the demon slit the the blue spider Lally appears once a year in sunlight and de moves on and his demons can't go out in the daytime and get the blue SPID because it appears in the hot day so and thing is UB asiki knows where the blue spider like he knows mus on plant he knows where the blue spider is so he knows mu can't get it because m weakness is sunlight mu and his demons his their weaknesses are sunlight so UB Shiki is not really worried about him trying to find the flower but he's it's like he's more concerned on defeating musan because demons go out every night slaughtering people and they it's either is they get slaughtered and eaten or you just get turned into a demon it's easier too vital and [ __ ] off to his inevitable d the years muan did go around sprinkling people with his juices and hopes of someone becoming a sun Walker his juices is crazy Lily he only has himself and one stripy boy looking for it why can you just pay a few bucks to some people and say you need it for research purposes or promise immortality to whoever brings him this mystical flower I guarantee people will buy that [ __ ] faster than discounted bath water and will scour every inch of every forest with a magnifying glass if they have to oh well he'd rather blame others and tear books like it's going to change anything wait doesn't he dislike change H for someone so focused on eternity he certainly likes to embrace new drip company and even faces anyway once tangero becomes a thing the demon king gets a sudden urge of wanting to do something about it and sends two of his weakest henchmen after our boy the result is underwhelming as usual and he stops sending assassins after his ultimate Nemesis because it obviously doesn't work and he's not the one to make the same mistake twice so he proceeds to make other more moronic moves like not sensing that the upper Moon six was fighting for their lives sending progressively stronger enemies for RMC to level up on and splitting his forces during the final battle before teenage horror movies became mainstream all that barely scratches the surface of everybody's idiocy and while writing this script I realize that I have so much material it will fit in at least two more videos on the subject so stay tuned for those or check this one out if you haven't seen it yet now I want you to quickly recall everything we talked about as the last point is a result of all these problems amalgamating together we have an unrealistic chosen 1 MC shallow World building and stupid [ __ ] everyone so in order to make this story somewhat work the author invokes the power equivalent to a fusion between duct tape and WD40 L armor it's so thick here not even Mount lady in her giant form can compete with his juicy curse it's absolutely vile and so blatantly shoved in our face that even most of the casts Dying by the end doesn't make it more tolerable why because they all died practically for nothing as it wasn't them who won it was muan who lost here are a few examples where the plot had an extra convenient sequence of events Yu coming to save tanero absolutely out of nowhere was he hunting someone during the day in the middle of the forest or just traversing difficult terrain because it is somehow faster [ __ ] oraki finding tangero makes more sense since he at least has an enhanced sense of smell and could have just been checking out the source which is also a bit of a stretch as he showed up without his sword then we have the mother of all face bombs our boy literally puts his hand on the biggest baddest of them all and gets away scof free with some wannabe moons chasing him what manan's ultimate Nemesis presents himself on a silver platter with sugar on top and thisis doesn't do anything about it okay I understand his pdsd that he honestly should have gone Noble already yet it doesn't prevent him from giving K ship so I forgot what was the question but let me continue I'll think about it later people call and be like hey bro what's up you remember these Kos we were after yeah I have one right here in such and such City want to come over and have some fun okay my people will lead you to him boom Tano's dead muan has won the show's over but no we have to pretend we're all high and mighty ignore this threat while he kills ruy and mudi hangu until he spills the beans to Slayers and teaches them about the biggest plot device of the show The Demon Slayer mark my favorite type of the powerups by the way an ass B that comes in handy when there is no way the main character can survive however is this the only time I say however in this video huh weird the worst offender in this category is undoubtedly the Yoshi zitu getting snatched and put in the fridge instead of being eaten inosi shifting his organs and not bleeding out somehow T get laying there pretending to be dead a no way the Slayers were surviving that as after such an intense fight that must have drained the demons they should have been munching on their corpses like they're being paid for it not to mention the direct bloody orders from their beloved leader what a joke in conclusion Demon Slayer is a series of highs and lows some things are done really well some are done pretty bad and if we are to average them out it turns out that this show is unfortunally mid it was I Mah meing into the microphone check out Discord and damn unfortunately M you know after after reviewing everything is like he kind of makes some points but if I'm be honest I don't even but to be honest uh Demon Slayer does it sometimes Demon Slayer can confuse me but I think it's more so I guess of a storyline but it but if I'm being honest I guess I'm not really focused on storyline because I'm too focus on the Demon Slayer fights and animations even so I still like Demon Slayer I still like Demon Slayer to be honest I don't even think most people will watch an anime if it's I think most people think most people will probably want to watch anime because of story line not necessarily true most people probably want to watch it because the storyline some people probably want to watch it because of the fights I kind of watch it for both that's just my opinion I don't know how anybody else feels that's just my opinion though
