This movie is amazing. The animation, storytelling, and pacing are all spectacular. I love how demon slayer can make you feel sympathy even for the demons once you learn about their backstory.

This movie was really good, tanjiro really made it into a hashira level when he fight akaza, he worked really hard to honed his skills to become strong. And in the end you will understand why akaza became a demon.

Honestly, I did not read the manga to avoid spoilers before watching the movie, and all I can say is it was heartbreaking and epic. It perfectly highlights Zenitsu’s revenge and Tanjiro’s intense fight with Akaza. A must-watch anime film—I can’t wait for the next chapter!

I know from the first release of this anime will be a hit. Before this anime reached Infinite Castle, I had already finished the rading manga in 2020. It's nerve-wracking to watch it animated and this was crazy hell. I can't wait another year for them to release another episode

Despite the spectacular animation, the movie falls short in terms of pacing and screenplay. The story moves too quickly, with important fights and arc conclusions handled in a rushed way just to fit in the main battle with Akaza, and the ending leaves you kinda desapointed.

The visuals were extremely well done credit goes to animators team. Story wise the movie goes well initially until mid and then drops pace as we move to the flashback. The most unexpected portion was the ending which could have been done in some better way considering the hype.

The best anime movie that I've ever watched on my life. Everything was perfect for me, the animation, the story, and how characters got their own highlights. The only thing that I don't like about is how short zenitsu's screentime. Hope he got what he deserves on the next movie

Absolute cinema! the battle scenes were superb! there are moments were the story slowed a bit during Akaza's character development, Zenitsu's fight scene were superb and satisfying and I can only wish that his fight scene were much longer. But then it's worth watching.

This absolutely slaps! The fights are insane, so much energy and jaw-dropping animation and the stakes for Tanjiro and the crew hit hard. It’s dark, intense, and emotional. As a fan, I was glued the entire time and i need more!

I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen. Every strike and counter was animated with such intensity, but what truly amazed me was how Akaza’s backstory was woven into the battle. The clash wasn’t just about strength, it was about pain, resolve, and the human spirit refusing to

One of the GOAT anime movies. Watched in IMAX, worth every penny. Some scenes felt a bit slow, with noticeable ups and downs, but Ufotable never fails to amaze...the animation, action, and emotion made it unforgettable.

This movie was a 1000% roller-coaster ride! From graphics, story, music- everything was perfect! I used to hate Akaza in the previous story but after watching this, I loved him! Hahahaha. Can't wait for the 2nd and 3rd movie! <3
