Demon Slayer Mugen Train Movie Reaction

  1. So I havent read the manga but I have friends who tell me that season 1 covers the weakest arcs, aside from Rui and rehabilitation arc which are my personal favorite arcs, everything past season 1 was a banger. So heres my theory on Tanjiro’s scar and the blacksword. If we think back to Final Selection we can recall many kids that had the same type of scar as Tanjiro. They all perished aside from him, Zenitsu, Kanao and the other kid. If we remember we were told that black swordsmen do not go far in the demon slayer corps, often dying quickly and not even mastering a style. So maybe the scar signifies sword users who are destined to acquire a black sword and fail. The only evidence I have of this is Tanjiro having the same scar as those kids and getting a black sword. It makes sense considering all those kids died during Final Selection. Now heres where it gets interesting. Back when Tanjiro finds Muzan in the city Muzan is fixated on the earrings Tanjiro is wearing. We learned in season one those were passed down to him by his father, and his father knows this Hinokami Kagura technique. Maybe Tanjiro’s father was a demon slayer who used this super special breathing form the “Hinokami Kagura” and maybe thats why Tanjiro hasnt failed or died yet and why his scar changed from the one that is destined to fail, to one that seems to be related to this special technique. Just my three cents though lol curious to know how others feel about this theory

  2. The people who complain about demon slayers are the people who are salty that it surpass there favorite anime/manga in popularity and only a few that I’ve seen has a problem with the show itself.

  3. This movie didn’t need to be this good to have people still watching. It’s the biggest anime out there and the sales is out of this world. It’s the most popular anime going right now. And season 1 and the movie is just the beginning, it gets even crazier and better then it already is. As much as i like jjk. I prefer demon slayers.

  4. Season 2 is set to release later this year, it’s supposed to go to Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Hulu first and then Netflix later. They’ve already released the trailer, but haven’t announced the exact date. Since we’re now half way through the year an announcement is expected very soon

  5. they left some things out of this arc in the movie but not the things they left out were not that much and important some few things like that one guy taking one of the shinny dudes out of tanjiros subconscious with him still a great movie but i just can recommend the manga because its a good read

    1. with your dumb logic why did well-received anime like bleach, one punch man, sword arm online, promised neverland, Death note (after L’s..), Naruto Shippuden(after pain’s arc) has a massive viewership drop after season 1 or halfway even though being the best selling manga? And yes some of these anime did deliver later on and got back up.

      It seems to me like you are new and just started watching Demon Slayer. You probably aren’t aware that the movie which is canon, aired in theater during covid times which delayed production of season 2 after season 1 of demon slayer ended. Most people who watched season 1 as it aired such as myself, waited for the movie on Bluray which caused a lack of interest in the anime. That’s one of the reasons why they did the Mugen train arc again in Season 2. Also if you watch enough reactors/Reddit/anime you’d know that last year, Jujutsu Kaisen was being compared to Demon Slayer a lot to its animation. Obviously, if the movie was average, I’d say myself and people wouldn’t care about season 2.

      Watch Blindwave Jujutsu Kaisen’s reaction, they said they enjoyed it and even compared it to demon slayer.

    1. Yup, I thought so too brother. I personally enjoyed Jujutsu kaisen season 1 more than demon slayer season 1, but after watching this movie, I was like nope.. Demon Slayer takes the lead. There’s also a Jujutsu kaisen movie coming this december or next year I think. Hopefully, that delivers.

      1. ‘@KneelbeforeMe lmao.. homie you should watch more anime, e.g both promised neverland and one punch man, season 1 sure was dope but season 2 didn’t deliver. Doesn’t matter if it’s the weakest arcs of the manga or not it just has to be good. Demon Slayer having only 1 season out so far doesn’t make it a must-watch for viewers like hero academia or attack on titan and since the demon slayer movie is a direct continuation of the anime, it’s obvious that this movie had to work to keep viewers on board. The story, music, animation and ending, etc was top-notch here. So it did save the series for many viewers such as myself. IMO as I said jujutsu kaisen season 1 is better than demon slayer season 1.

        1. Apparently you don’t watch enough anime to know the power of casuals, Demon Slayer won best anime of the year and skyrocketed past some of the biggest shows and manga in anime history with just their first season. This movie in no way “needed to keep people watching”, the amount of newcomers to the anime community from this and MHA was ridiculous, and because you enjoyed JJK more doesn’t just magically make all those numbers and stats disappear. Is it worthy of the title of best anime of that year and decade, well that’s up to personal taste, my answer is obviously no. Demon Slayer has and will be going strong for a long time.

        2. Dude what are you even talking about? The movie didn’t need to save it or anything, it was one of the best rated Animes of that season and well received not to mention the Manga was massive.

          The movie did not need to do anything, I hardly think MHA will match this show overall. So stop acting like Season 1 wasn’t good to people

      1. Season 1 didn’t really grab me. Having a full 26 episode season dedicated to so much training left me uninterested, and I didn’t find the villains too engaging. It’s so critically acclaimed because it looks nice and a lot of non-anime fans watch it.
