Instead of Zenitsu coming in with a surprise Nezuko rescue? The movie's handling had much more impact factor, short as it was. The movie had Nezuko strung up, yanking her hard enough to show pain - and right when that emotion resonated with us, out of nowhere Zenitsu flashes through half the train to cut her loose.Originally Posted by MFauli
I think any foreshadowing would have lost impact.

If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
I really liked Rengoku. He really grew on me in that short movie, and now I fucking want to murder that number 3 demon. I really hope Tanjiro gets to be the one to kill that bastard.
I was crying along with the trio near the end.
@Mfauli - I did a quick look at the manga, which is finished at 23 volumes, to see where the movie ended. It was around the end of volume 8, so we are only a third of the way into the story.
Peace.
It seems I made the right choice focusing on the OST and leaving this anime. I know my reading is biaised but it seems some people think a great part of this anime success comes from LiSA's performances... I can't tell, didn't watch. But I sure deeply love LiSA's TFT video clips.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
It's more the actual BGM than the OP that kicks ass IMO, but the show is easy to watch with a high budget, well animated, and a mix of (eventually) likable characters and a matching soundtrack.
It's not unique in this (Jujutsu Kaisen is a recent example of Good Staple Shounen + Money), but delivers a good anime experience.

I mean...it's the song from that one part of that one episode that people actually care about.
Are you talking about the broken sword vs spider neck?
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Indeed.
You know, the emotional climax of the first season that made everyone take notice of the series, that gets completely undermined 30 seconds into the next episode.
Ah.
I mean.. yeah, it was a nice moment for the song, but my reaction to that is more mellow than most I reckon (if "everyone" only noticed the show then because of that scene). I've found the show consistently enjoyable and good to watch, with many other scenes being cool with matching soundtracks (Zenitsu cutting the other spider fellow in the web-hut, Tanjiro finishing his training, only find out at a later fight that they were dead remnants of his senpais etc).
The undermining of Tanjiro's efforts... I kinda get why they did it. The writer wanted it to be cool and all, but then really Tanjiro shouldn't be able to kill even lower moons at his level right now. I say that, despite him actually killing one in the movie lol.

That's when it's popularity exploded, yes.
Like how I believe the fight in episode 24 of Jujutsu Kaisen is doing a lot for that series right now.
While I'm finally catching up with the current arc...I'll comment on this bit.
It wasn't the climax in eps 19 that's stuck with me the longest, though it certainly made an impression. A part of it has been the dry comedy or cutesy slapstick expertly used in between the segments of horror and action. The series hits that correct balance, weighted towards the horror-action.
The fact that a shonen series also has an ENDING is a big plus for it, because it means we won't get arc after arc of resets and power-rescaling just to extend out the franchise.
But the part that's stuck with me the longest since the first series ended was actually Spider-Mother's gentle death. Tanjiro is different than most protagonists. He's observant, diligent, and always compassionate before he gets angry. That's why the screaming at Upper-3 was so moving. We don't get to see his rage very often because it just isn't there. Tanjiro is so different from most male leads, to the point that he was able to dissuade an assassin who simply witnessed his innermost self.
S2 EP1

So, this is a bit odd, since I watched the movie.
Feels like I don't want to watch the next 3 episodes or something?
Although I doubt they are going to show that and will probably make a cut... but then again, that will probably feel awful for the people who didn't watch it.
And if they don't, it will be boring for the people who DID watch it.
odd...weird.
You don't want to watch the first 7 episodes. It's a revamp of the movie, enhanced. The next arc will start in December.
I didn't watch the movie, so this works out for me.
It's an counter "Gekijouban" situation for anime, oddly enough.

It's a very Dragon Ball Super situation, where the first two arcs of Super were just redoing the movies, but longer.
Except the quality in this probably won't suck.
Okay... I'm going to watch it because why not, but that seems like a weird flex to me.
"look how much budget we have, we do the same thing, but different, twice!"
While the movie is the highest grossing Japanese film of all time...I believe they are reusing a lot of material. According to that article, they're only adding 70 new cuts to the content of the film.
Someone who watches both pls later on report if the tv-adaptation is worth watching. Thx
Well this entire episode was new.
I skimmed through the first episode and I'll be watching this despite watching the movie just for Flame Bro's character development. The movie had very little of it and his death had no impact on me whatsoever.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
If this is the extent that they are going to be injecting more lore/context into this arc, this is already worth watching. Skip the movie if you haven't seen it (since they are already going to be recycling that animation for fights/ect).
I've seen the movie and now I've seen all the episodes released so far. I don't know what has been "enhanced", but this feels like 1:1 the same. Good that I wanted to rewatch the movie anyway shrugs.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
