Review of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc

I admit I was quite disappointed with the beginning of this new season of Kimetsu, the fact of redoing the Infinity Train arc was quite a pity (and mostly present to surf on the success of the movie) and thus seeing again what I had already seen lowered my hype more than anything else. That being said, and the disappointment of the beginning of the season behind us, this arc has reconciled me with the series. We find antagonists that fit the characters; notably the "real" villain who transmits a vision of a future where Tanjro loses hope by sinking into hatred with his sister, allthis in connection with the previous antagonist who showed him a utopian past whose non-existence we must accept.

In the same way, we see in a more obvious way the nindo of the demons who advocate transhumanism, with the loss of all human weaknesses (emotions, stamina, etc...); coming in direct opposition to the defenders who advocate their humanity and their weaknesses, seeking above all to remain human.

In short, we have a good thematic connection allowing the story to stay on a classic but quite pleasant path with a qualitative aesthetic. In conclusion, this was a very pleasant arc to see although not as exceptional as one might think (because it doesn't reinvent anything).
