Finished Demon Slayer S4 - Hashira Training Arc :ehh: . Tanjiro is still my guy. Saw the remaining arc of the manga will be adapted into a trilogy of movies. Might have to go to the theaters to check them out, if I can watch in Japanese.

I am both excited and nervous and getting the same staff back is important. A lot will depend on when Bocchi S2 comes out because Saito is also the director for that. Who has credits for both Elusive Samurai and Monogatari that are airing now. Plus composer Evan Call & Kouki Fujimoto who is responsible for most of the action scenes.

Evan Call is working on the music for My Happy Marriage S2 which airs Winter 2025.

Man Bones continues to pop off this season. They're holding up their end of the bargain for MHA S7. I will admit it did feel forced to have the rest of the family come, but for them to be together one last time the emotional beats hit well. Prob the best episode for for S7.

Next season TYBW & Shangri-La Frontier S2 are going to spoil action brehs. Dandadan will be great, the best will come in S2 onwards. (Still should be real good this season.) Rurouni_Kenshin should be good too since I really liked S1 of the remake.

As the Beautiful Princess brought Koyomi to heaven it does make me wonder how much Shinobu realized that would happen. Perhaps I am looking too much into it. Given how Suicide-Master has a standard for eating. Given the Beautiful Princess is the best standard that she can have everyone else's blood is meh in comparison. I think most people wouldn't have thought what sucking the Beautiful Princess's blood would mean for Suicide-Master going forward. Curious that her saliva is just the taste and vampires can feed off that is interesting.

With the 4 girl being mummy is found. The idea that she is in the bottom of the sea chained down is curious. While in many ways the direct culprit being Suicide-Master and you can say that the damage was done to each girl, and they just find them in a different day. However, as they pointed out that it is likely another vampire is trying to pin it on Suicide-Master. The only suspect we can think of is Dog-Strings, but beyond him, we are clueless who could be behind it.

Shinobu's main faith in Suicide-Master follows the same logic the Beautiful Princess mentioned earlier. Simple Suicide-Master wouldn't have decent blood when she had the Beautiful Princess. However, there is one point I am considering. Depending on how hungry one becomes the motivation for food can increase. So who's to say the motivation to consume food outweighs the risk of subpar standards.

We are getting a few clues, but more questions come from it. The big discussion when Suicide-Master will be an interesting one. Especially from the side of Shinobu.

Last episode we saw how a fire lit in Tokiyuki when Hoshino mentioned that Kojiro will die with his men. Which set things in motion, but here we see the contrast that the men know Kojiro's name, but not the other way around. What I love is that Tokiyuki is like the proud little brother for Kojiro. Essentially, the type that is like did you see my brother and how awesome he is. It's that charm why his retainers follow him.

Kojiro vs Wada was interesting on two fronts. It really shows how affective horseback riding is. A big man like Wada gets an immense amount of power and speed from being able to fight on horseback rather than on foot. In a 1-on-1 fight, Kojiro was never going to beat him, but what he needed to do was outlast Wada. With all of Wada's men down, Kojiro was able to get the easy kill.

The last bit really showcased how much of an idiot the Provincial Officer Kiyohara is. He had no reasons to be out there and to add he left his defenses open. Fubuki's threat is more affective than killing him because someone more competent will take his place. But a useless leader from a certain point of view can be viewed as great assistance to Tokiyuki's men.

Overall, you couldn't ask for a better adaptation. Dealing with animating horses is the main challenge this series will face going forward. But they did a fantastic job at setting up the foundation of this series. S2 will eventually come, but it might be awhile because of Cloverworks busy schedule. Chapter 32 for those that want to pick off where the anime left off. Much like Frieren nothing was skipped, so that makes it easy to jump to the manga.

If there were any doubts that we lost the old Atri the beginning of the episode showed that we had nothing to worry about. Yes, she wasn't designed to remember her order, but how do we get to Eden? Atri had no answer. I really liked how Rikka offered up the clue to get Natsuki & Atri in the right direction. Though where did they end up? How did they end up there?

The place they ended up in felt very automated in its entire structure. As the robot Atri birds flock around our Humanoid Atri, this is a place Atri fits right in. Tbh there are many questions, and honestly, it is difficult to even speculate until the finale comes out.

One thing this episode showcased well was that Natsuki really understood his grandmother. It is actually really bizarre how different Natsuki's mom and grandmother are. Atri energetic personality comes from Shina as a kid. Even the moments we see Shina as a parent with Natsuki you can tell that she is back to her kind self differently then when she was a kid.

Natsuki at the beginning of the series seemed much closer to his grandmother. Very isolated and self-centered. As Atri came into his life he grew to be happier and kind. Nonko was very much isolated and immersed in her work. Creating Eden is immensely impressed. But you could say she lacks the heart that Atri has. Like Natsuki said everything that his grandmother does have a purpose. The sad part is when it all clicked for him, he didn't want to lose Atri. Nonoka is immensely cruel for having what was a 45-day limit to bring Atri in Eden. You feel so bad for Natsuki since his new goal was to understand Atri and humanoids. I assume his grandmother knew he would get attached to Atri.

The big thing in this episode, Atri does not accept Natsuki's order. If we recall that Atri does everything to make Natsuki happy. She knows that Natsuki seeing her die essential would be devastating. Not to mention the purpose for her grandmother to do all of this which I am still confused about. As she says secures both Atri and humanities future. Though does this mean Atri is forever asleep? One thing is for sure this showed how cold Nonoka is. Just bringing the choice of choosing Atri vs humanity is a cruel choice to give to Natsuki. But to add on Atri's survival.

The Alya show I thought was ASS in terms of story,overuse of a lot of dumb romance troupes with zero advancement. The student council and its election were the focus of the season and it was just not interesting at all. The animation was incredible though and I have to guess it's the main reason why the show was popular because it truly had nothing else to be compelled to watch.

If you're looking for advancement or an actual relationship this isn't the right series. I read all these and the relationship is ever the same.
