Rules of Nature actually fits really well with Demon Slayer's theme of humans overcoming demons that by all means are more powerful then they are through rigorous training, sheer grit and determination. Good stuff.
*”The Entertainment District is a cruel parent, but an effective teacher. Its final lesson is carved deep in my psyche: That this world, and all its people, are diseased. Free will is a myth. Religion is a joke. We are all pawns, controlled by something greater: Memes. The DNA of the soul. They shape our will. They are the culture, they are everything we pass on. Expose someone to anger long enough, they will learn to hate. They become a carrier. Envy, greed, despair... All memes. All passed along”* -Gyutaro, Upper Moon 6
*AND IT WILL COME* *LIKE FLOOD OF PAIN* *POURING DOWN ON ME* *AND IT WILL NOT LET UP UNTIL THE END IS HERE* *AND IT WILL COME* *THROUGH THE DARKEST DAY* *IN MY FINAL HOUR* *AND IT WILL NEVER REST UNTIL THE CLOUDS ARE CLEAR* *UNTIL IT FINDS MY DREAM HAVE DISSSAAPPE PEP PE PEAR PEARED*
The most amazing part about this, no matter how many times I watch it, is that the Rules of Nature part isn't even the most hype part. That fucking guttural scream at 1:26 gives me fucking chills every time
I really hope we get another fight like we did with Gyutaro, so far, he's my favorite demon simply because of these scene, his design is cool, of course his Sickles and the explosions everywhere. If we get another scene like this, im gunna be happy af
as someone who's read the entire manga, I won't spoil anything but if you think this fight was awesome... OHOHOHOHO SHITAMOLE you have no clue what is in store
@@total55544 People don't even consider this. Which is stupid, Tengen, WITHOUT a mark did all of this, at this point and time in the story he is atleast top 5. Muichiro would die vs Gyokko if he didn't awaken the mark at last moment. People do downplay Tengen a lot. Which is wrong.
@@dannacoleman5189 He wasnt one of the weakest in this moment of the story, all of the other hashria after this got even stronger because they awaken their marks and go through more training, Tengen quits after this
Now this make me realize how fucking dope a Metal Gear Rising: Revengenence style Demon Slayer game would be. With each character bringing their own fighting style. Spoiler warning: I do reference certain thing in the manga. TL;DR Fire and derivatives: High damage Thunder and derivatives: High movement Water and derivative: High coverage (i.e, best hitboxes) Wind and derivatives: High combos Stone and derivatives: High defense Tanjiro would be your standard character, pretty average but also being well rounded with some unique mechanics like a sun breathing mode that empowers your attacks but take a lot from a meter or something along those lines Zenitsu would be very speed base focusing a quick one shot slices often by charging it, his moves are also great movement tools allowing you to cover a good distance in a very short time and if you press a certain button shortly after you can recover some of your charge for free, yet has a low health pool, using dodges and parries to look for openings Inosuke would be much more of a brawler that can take a few hits, yet he would have a lot more end lag if you miss, yet they also do a lot of multi hits and lock the enemy in place, basically guaranteeing damage. Nezuko would more of a bezerker able to take a lot of hits and dish out like inosuke, but has to be conservative with it because if she over does it, she can be left in a very vulnerable state Kanao would be very flowy, also having some very forgiving hurt boxes, but don't spam with this character because she has sweet spots that do a ton more damage when hit, dropping a combo can leave her very venerable. Giyu would play a lot like Tanjiro but a lot more refined in certain ways, yet might not have options like Tanjiro's Sun Breathing mode, instead replacing it with a Deep Calm mode Shinobu would be flowy like Kanao but have much more stabbing strikes and having a exponentially stacking poison mechanic, yet she would also have one of the lower health pools Rengoku would fight like Tanjiro in his sun breathing mode but a lot more efficient but not as damaging, he would also be one of the tougher fighters, not the toughest but can take a few more hits Tengen would focus on combos that rely heavily on good rhythm and use a lot of movement, dodges, and parries like Zenitsu, but like Kanao dropping a combo can leave him very vulnerable Mitsuri would have very devastating hits, fighting similarly to Rengoku but with more sweet spot focus and longer range, the hurt boxes wouldn't be random, but they would defiantly be all over the pace. Muichiro would be very floaty with his move providing lots of short movements, unlike Zenitsu's longer movements, he also has of multi hitting moves giving him one of the highest combo potential in the game Obanai would be like Shinobu with more more follow up attacks and having little end lag, also similar to Muchiro a lot of his moves grant great short movement options Senemi would fight like Inosuke but instead of having locked damage sequences he instead fights like a rabid spider monkey hoped up on cocaine trying to mimic a beyblade, has the highest combo potential Genya would use his shotgun for damage initially that would be very damaging , with his short sword being less damaging, just barely more than Shinobu's strikes without her poison, acting more as a get off me tool, however any damage done will cause blood droplets to spew out of the demon, when he collects these droplets all of his attributes improve and unlocks other abilities and moves he can use, he basically plays as if it was DOOM in third person, he could even have a glorykill mechanic where if a demon is at low enough health he can go up to it to kill it in a short kill sequence, this also makes him collect more blood than just killing the demon out right, as well as automatically collect it Gyomei would have the highest the highest health pool, for humans at least, he would also have super armor, this complements his slow but devastating attacks that will knock enemies hit onto their butts, however missing leaves him very venerable And that's it for all the main human (and one and a half? demons) characters at least
@@trulyrebekha I mean not really It’s just a cool fight scene, there’s no plot relevance out of context, so it should be fine And I say this as someone who also hasn’t seen demon slayer
@@godricktheminecrafted3113 Nah, it's just much better when you don't know what's gonna happen, them watching this episode won't be as hype anymore since they just spoiled themselves.
@@godricktheminecrafted3113 it's for sure a massive spoiler, if you watch the series you will be remembering this fight is suppose to happen and that alone is spoiler
For anyone wondering, his blades are made from a specific material that creates an explosion when in contact of demon blood. I hope my memory doesn't betray me here
Actually I think the reason why is because since the explosive material he used in his bombs got stuck on his swords it then somehow made it explode on contact with something
I've watched this video multiple times over the past 4 days and I still get hyped every time I see it. This is such a great edit to this fight that I don't know if I can watch it without the music now.
0:50 RULES OF NATURE And they run when the sun comes up With their lives on the line fits so well with demon slayer For all that I've Gotta follow the laws of the wild man metel gear rising's music is soo good the best part is the lyrics has a lot of meaning
1:48 What could've given this a greater timing is if you'd placed the song where the *"-TURE"* shout plays at the same time as the sword being unsheathed. That would cause the lightning blast to drop at the same time as the guitar, and would've been a lot more epic
The ONE problem I have with this is that, the music over takes the action, in that episode, the soundtrack played a huge role in keeping the hype, because it allowed the action to be front and center. I do like this video, and this was just a suggestion for future vids.
Probably because of the volume of the song and how Rules of Nature is less of an anticipation but "sudden crash of action" type of song. If you get what I mean
All memes aside, this is the best edit of this fight, bar none. All the good parts seamlessly put together, no annoying screaming in between the actual fighting. Beyond good job.
Shit gave me chills because of this hardcore music playing at the background, you can actually feel their rage like in 0:51 with some god tier animations
"And they run when the sun comes up" VERY fitting for fighting these Demons. And this kind of track suits nothing better than a show about breathing living fleshy humans overcoming superpowered demons through pure training, determination and willpower.
the fact that this fight isnt even with the final big bad I seriously wonder how they will top this level of epicness. If they do manage to top it I dont think my adrenal glands can handle it.
