RENGOKU IS A BEAST | Demon Slayer: Mugen Train Movie | REACTION 

Sadly, Rengoku really had to step in and die for the trio to live. For me he has the most unfair fight but has one of the best send-offs in the series. Imagine fighting the top 3 alone and your comrades sent with you are a bunch of newbies. He went out with an honorable death. There are still a lot of Rengoku materials that needs to be animated and imo, the spin off manga is the best to close Rengoku's chapter. Pls don't forget the prequel and its after credits! 😉 There are a lot of easter eggs in this arc in terms of story building. We now know the strength of an Upper moon and Akaza is top 3. In this fight, it seems that Akaza wasn't even interested in killing kyojuro, but rather wanted him to be a demon instead. There were parts when he's slowing down for Kyojuro. Even showed concern for him in the last part. We've always felt that in s1 the hashiras are strong and all but in the end they are only humans and humans will always have limitations unlike demons. His death has a huge impact in this series as he is the first one to fight an upper moon in this generation of hashiras. It is a humbling blow as his comrades all look up and respect him. Hits really hard if we go back to rengoku and shinobu's last conversation in s1. And they will have to level up themselves because as of now we only met upper moon 3... Did you notice that Rengoku never even saw Inosuke's real face? Trivia: the scene when tanjiro was shouting at akaza was done in one take. Tanjiro's voice actor considers Rengoku's voice actor as his senpai. So it got really emotional when they were recording this and tanjiro's VA was just crying throughout. In the ufotable notes, normally they would use a specific palette for Tanjiro's tears. They changed it a bit during the scene when he was crying for Rengoku to evoke a certain glow and have that really emotional impact. They worked hard in animating Rengoku to perfectly show how strong and noble his character was. During the last smile scene however, they wanted to evoke that feeling kyojuro emanated in the manga. That in his last moments, this powerful hashira is just a boy smiling innocently at his mother. 😔

I remember, when I first watched this, I burst into tears when I heard Tanjiro's speech. I could feel how angry and frustrated Tanjiro was at that moment. All of the voice actors in this series, not just Tanjiro's, do a really great job.

The mom actually says "you made me proud" at the end there, adds more weight to the moment 😭

I saw this in the theater, and Zenitsu’s streak through the train gave me goosebumps.

1:01:58 i hope y’all didn’t miss the inhale he did right before this moment, seen a lot of reactors miss it, the focus on the breathing in this show is genuinely inspiring, as if u can do what these characters do if you train and focus hard enough, powerful stuff man truly

it's sad that Rengoku's only way he got close to killing Akaza was when he was too distracted about turning him into a demon. Akaza was smiling throughout the whole fighting, not being serious at all.

That’s a hashira for you now you guys can understand what the hashira are really all about they may seem like jerks but they speak with actions

The Craziest thing to me is that the only reason only Rengoku dies is because of Akaza. If Akaza wasn’t so intrigued by Rengoku, he could’ve blitz them and killed everyone there. He was clearly holding back that entire fight because he wanted to recruit Rengoku rather than kill him. That allowed them to stall for time until the sun came up. The only time to me that Akaza got serious is when he punched a hole into Rengoku and I think that was because he was taken off guard by Rengoku last attack and forced him to actually fight. If you look at Akaza face when he punches through Rengoku it cold and serious. It’s unlike his facial expressions in the fight before that moment. Also the fact that he is capable of punching a hole in Rengoku confirms he was holding back. Cause that means when he broke Rengoku ribs, he would’ve punched through him there. Also when he smashed his left eye, the tells me he could’ve punched half of Rengoku face off.

Rengoku's mom says: You made me so proud. I feel like that hits so much harder than "you did perfectly fine"

Amazing reaction!

This animation is inferior to entertainment district arc animation it just keep getting better and better

set your heart ablaze 🔥

the entire akaza fight is a flex by ufotable the entire fight in the manga is like 3 pages long lol

I hate these wrong translations tbh but i loved the reaction❤️

the subtitles were just wrong in so many ways

I’m sure you’ve been told this but the first half of season 2 is the Mugen Train Arc divided into 6 episodes + an anime original episode as a prologue for the arc (so 7 episodes in total) If you want to start the new arc (the Entertainment District Arc) it starts at episode 8 of season 2 for a total of 11 episodes.

Even if Rengoku cut his head he would have grown it back in an instant soo Rengoku had to die cuz not even Gyomei can kill Akaza

the subtitles seem off, maybe u should change the website youre watching

Entertainment district hype!!

You guys are not ready for entertainment district arc🙆🏻‍♂️🔥

great reaction for a great movie......the entertainment district only gets better

Leg’s goo 🔥🔥

Subs were a tiny bit off but I didn't mind them to be honest, except for the bit with rengoku's mother, instead of 'you did perfectly fine' it was 'you made me proud'

Season 2 same good in some moments even better

45:10 NANIIII ?!??! 💅😫💕

Wish you guys had patreon with a full length reaction

This movie was amazing, but I mean, people really thought that they would kill the 4th strongest demon by just fighting to a hashira, not even one of the strongest

Finally 😭

Yaaaaas!!

the dub mssed up the attack names,,, infernal vault??? should be blazing universe

the subtitles are quite imperfect as compared to the original version so it felt a bit off but rest of is ok.

Just imagine...That demon is only upper 3.. there are 2 more demons above him plus muzan. A hashira can't beat an upper rank 1v1 that's why they remained unchanged for the past century

some of the subtitles where inaccurate for example his 9th form is called Rengoku as he says but it says hell fire in the subtitles

alright i cant wait for S2 now

Fun fact Tanjiro’s theory about the Dream Demon being weaker than The Spider Kid (Rui) was correct the creator of this series confirmed that Rui was more powerful, he just didn’t switch ranks cause he didn’t care about numbers Another fun fact and this is actually scary, that Demon that killed Rengoku (he was like the fifth strongest Pillar btw) was holding back the whole time

akaza compass needle is totally rengoku's natural enemy is a skill that gets more sensitive the higher the martial spirit is seriously it's a very bad job for rengoku so we can say that rengoku as passive skill fought in the most serious form of akaza and akaza said to rengoku, your fighting spirit is close to the highest realms sharpened to the utmost

Epic and sad..

Unfortunate that the subtitles were slightly off. They never changed the meaning but its nice to have the official subs bcuz they more accurately portray the tone in some instances. Like 9th form Hell fire? instead of the ultimate final form being the family name, that’s an L. Also, Clear Blue Skies

Now go for Season 2 of Demon Slayer....a Flashy Arc

Dude start watching the Entertainment district .....you will love it

There are some mistake in the subtitles

Wait till you see Season 2!!!

Why does he keep calling Inosuke “in-so-kay”

waxing three?

Disappointed that half the subtitles aren't accurate. You guys watched a different version of the movie. Lol. Loving the reaction tho.

U will like season 2

55:12 wtf are those subtitles?

was*

Rengoku 9th form Rengoku means purgatory 🥰😍 Kinda scary family name ngl hahaha 🤣😂 Btw i just realized Back in season 1 haganezuka the sword smith mention that People with red eyes and bright red hair is blessed by the sun They are the one with the red swords commonly Rengoku inherit her mother red eyes And he also have some red hairs And he also invoke a red sword since he uses flame breathing So its true while tanjiro fail to invoke red sword since he starts using water style not his hinokami style Incomparison tanjiro has more red hair than rengoku which will probably means he has stronger flames

You think this show is good here just wait😂demon slayer is about to demand your respect in s2

Next ONE PIECE

You guys unfortunately watched a bad sub :(

STOP WITH THE LOGICAL HEROS ON THE SCREEN OTHER PEOPLE ARE TRYNA WATCH TO
