This narration either comes from the characters’ first-person inner monologues or from an omniscient third-person narrator. In Gotouge’s manga this expository writing comes in the form of narration that can sometimes encompass several panels. This is much appreciated as it gives them a proper send-off and wraps up Uzui’s contribution to this Arc.Ī fundamental storytelling device that is featured in different forms in every medium is exposition. We are shown Tengen leaving the battlefield together with his wives. Another anime-original moment was towards the end of Episode 11, “No Matter How Many Lives”. In addition, we get to see more of how the married quartet interact when they are together, something that the manga left room to explore. Consequently, we have a more comprehensive understanding of the roots of Tengen’s motivation. This flashback goes deeper into Tengen’s ghost, in other words, the thing in his past that still haunts and influences him in the present. One example of the Studio giving viewers more time with Tengen like they did with Kyojuro is the flashback scene at the beginning of Episode 9, “Defeating an Upper-Rank Demon”, wherein he, Makio ( Shizuka Ishigami), Suma ( Nao Toyama), and Hinatsuru ( Atsumi Tanezaki) visit the Uzui family grave.
DONT SAY YOU WATCHED THE ANIME IF YOU DIDNIT READ TH EMANGA SERIES
If the series will be having one or two Hashira as the focus for each new Arc, it should not feel like they are disposable or two-dimensional stepping stones. Ufotable gives Uzui ( Katsuyuki Konishi) and his wives a similar treatment during the Entertainment District adaptation.
If you read chapters 67 to 97 of the manga then watch the corresponding eleven episodes of this Arc – or vice-versa – you can observe the ways in which the studio brought the original story to life on the screen and how it added extra content to complement the overall narrative and enhance the viewing experience. This year, the anime adaptation of the Entertainment District Arc finished airing, and it’s almost needless to say that the eleven episodes did not deviate in quality from the rest of the series thus far. If the Demon Slayer anime was a recipe, Gotouge provides the high-quality ingredients and Ufotable blends them all together symbiotically, adding meaningful creative liberties here and there, and elevating it all to greatness with smooth and incredibly stylistic animation.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba's success is due to a combination of two key elements: Koyoharu Gotouge’s incredible storytelling and fascinating characters, and Studio Ufotable’s adaptation, without forgetting the heartfelt voice acting from the cast, and top-notch animation.
