Review of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Entertainment District Arc

To phrase it like this: If Kimetsu no Yaiba were a game, it'd all work out. The growing variety of obnoxious characters would bind you that much closer to your MCs Tanjirou & Nezuko. The fact that they are all structurally and substantially the same even within the way they are coated to be different from each other in the exact same way.. would have redeeming quality: other skills, looks, movement, priorities - so that each time your style and thinking has to change along and the game'd keep being interesting. Conversations above 5 sentences would be evenly stretched apart and would always be thetorchbearers of progress (next level, next boss, next character, next whatever).
If Kimetsu no Yaiba were a game, it'd all make sense:
Its animated like a game, its progressing like a game, its timed like a game and its not by accident but by design.
It has clearly fallen into the wrong hands - or the wrong industry.
Because as an anime it is only because of its technically immaculate production that it qualifies as mediocre. The characters are unbearable, their way of thinking is revolting, their voice acting is (by direction, not by execution) torturous.
And their attempt at "giving everyone their time to shine" as if it were a kindergarten is just as obvious as, again, as if it were a kindergarten.
90% of the main characters actions are obvious appeasement for the 90% of the show that is inadequate for kids. A bunch of psychotics in a sect fighting a bunch of other psychotics in a cult might've tipped the scale a nudge too much and thus they are counter-steering by oversaturating the diplomatic mission of the heart, their MC is following in parallel to his path of ever increasing slaughter.
If it were a game it'd work out... somehow.
In Kimetsu no Yaiba it didn't and it has been getting worse. All of it.
This season shows that the creators are trapped in a maelstrom of "need more death" in turn demanding more "moral compass" in turn demanding more "comic relief" in turn demanding more "drama" in turn demanding "more death" .. I mean.. "action".
Kimetsu no Yaiba is like a hi-end machine with broken buttons. Garbage - full of salvageable parts. Salvageable for the game industry.
If you haven't started already, then don't. Don't watch it.

When Macintosh began soldering their hard-drives into its Laptops there still were a lot of professionals who gave rave reviews anyways. So if you see someone raving about this who seems to know what they're saying.. it is probably something along those lines.
