Demon Slayer – Swordsmith Village Arc Episode 9 Gallery

It’s been a long and exhausting week. I’m very ready for the weekend. Oh, I’m going to a Japanese Street Food Fest tomorrow. I’ll tell you, guys, about it! Maybe I’ll take a few pictures. And then on Sunday, we’ll get a new Demon Slayer and that’s always exciting.

This week’s episode was pretty cool and we talk it over on Crow’s blog. I think you should go over, you’ll definitely like it!

Honestly, a fish demon is a really fun idea. And I have to admit just seeing little explosions of fish flopping around in the middle of the battle just added this wonderful flare of ridiculousness!

There was quite a bit of CG in this fight and not all of it worked. However, the nonsense of it all made me forgive it all.

Did you guys enjoy the mist effect? It’s a fairly simple effect but I think it was very visually striking. I enjoyed it a lot. It does make it very difficult to tell what exactly is going on which is probably why it isn’t used more. This said, I do hope to get to see it a little more.

I also really like the eyecatch. It’s just cute.

The contrast of the warm colours in Muichirou’s dreams(?) and the coolness of the real-world scenes really go a long way to conveying atmosphere and a feeling. Warm colours can become suffocating but you can see that these scenes remain airy despite all the gold light and red accents.

I talked about in more detail over on Crow’s blog but don’t you get very strong magical girl vibes from Kanroji’s fight choreography? I can’t quite explain it but as soon as I saw this scene all I could think of was, Sailor Moon, Sakura, even Madoka… And I’m not mad about it!
