This is the point where we knew he's powerful, not just by killing the demon in one shot but also for having a fcking Gold Katana. He's power level just different, he never got the katana broken.
many thinks it's split personality but no. It's not.. It's because during his sleep.. His fear goes away. To him..it's a dream where he is powerful. but the thing is.. He IS powerful. Sleep doesn't give him power.. He just forgets all about his anxiousness and fear when asleep..
That and being asleep allows him to not only utilize his own potential but also turns off the natural inhibitors that we all have as self preservation measures. All of that gets focused into one unstoppable slash
@@donotreplydumbpeople3866No! Split personality definition according to google: A disorder characterized by the presence of two or more distinct personality states. His personality is not distinct from each other at all.He still wants to protect his loved ones..he wants to be loved..He wants to be strong enough to defeat demons... He's more of sleep ~walking~ fighting..He thinks he is living a dream
I've only heard about it but apparently the thunder sfx that could be heard in the background in Tanjiro's POV was actually Zenitsu soloing most of the demons i'm more surprised by how very few still know about Zenitsu's power
Zenitsu is using the Iaijutsu form of Katana usage. He attempts to end fights within seconds of his blade leaving its sheath. He doesn’t try to slowly figure out his opponent, he’s shock and awe.
Okay, so whomever posted and deleted: Iaido (what replaced Iaijutsu) didn’t exist in the time period that Zenitsu lives in and it wouldn’t be invented for at least 30 years as the Taisho period is from 1912-1956 and Iaido was integrated in 1955-ish.
I viewed it as Zenitsu is like a strike of lightning. In the anime and manga, all the characters that fight Zenitsu say he is so fast they didn't even see him. Every time he fights Tanjiro and others away from the battlefield say they hear thunder in the distance. Zenitsu blade is lightning and the thunder is his speed breaking the sound barrier. He is a lightning strike his blade is sheathed at the end of a technique. I think this symbolizes how a strike of lightning is so quick and sudden and it's gone in the next moment. The only indication is the thunder, dust, and what's left with whatever it struck.
People still don't get it. They think even after s1, tanjiro is stronger than zenitsu. Take this as a fun comparision, but zenitsu has something that's easily a hashira level even at this point. Welp even with his first form sixfold(ik there's more, but I'm trying to keep this spoiler free) is a hashira level
@@jaytheman Do you know about his 7th form? He already has mastered it and that can oneshot an upper moon 6. Sorry if I spoiled you but you asked for it. He also knows the first form 8 fold and godspeed which is also really powerful
@@vyk5647 Bro what. I didn't "ask" for anything. And before you start trying to sound smart get your facts right. A zenitsu who has already learned constant and was significantly stronger then he was in season 1 said that he can only use godspeed twice before his legs give out. What makes you think a season 1 zenitsu could even use it once? Sure maybe he has the theory part of it down, but I highly doubt he could actually use it more than once if anything. And the 7th form. He didn't even have it yet. Zenitsu based the 7th form off of the hinokami kagura and he hadn't even seen the damn sword style yet so how could he have based it off of something he didn't even know existed. And even if he could have used the 7th form a season 1 zenitsu would get clapped by kaigaku simply because he is FAR weaker in season 1 compared to their actual fight.
As a manga reader i can tell you this is just the beginning. *SPOILER FOR MANGA* In the infinite fortress arc he creates an all new Thunder Breathing form, a seventh form. Thunder breathing only has 6
@@cintiabryant4468 because he didn't know there were more, just like Tanjiro didn't know there was an 11th form for water breathing zenitsu wasn't being told there were 6 forms for some reason idk
All this does is make me think back to the Mugen Train Arc when Tanjiro is like "I wonder if Mr. Rengoku, Inosuke, and Zenitsu are awake." and I'm just screaming at the TV, "YOU LEAVE THAT MAN ASLEEP AT ALL COSTS"
Ngl that's what I thought at first too. Like an alter would take over his host personality if his life is threatened. It's a cool idea but in the end, I guess the sleepwalking thing works better.
He does have a split personality. When he's asleep he's a completely different person, fearless and not bound and a strategic thinker. When he's fighting Daki you can see him monitor the fight and find her weaknesses.
@@akshayramdaw9003 I don't think so. I think that's just who Zenitsu really is, but without the crippling fear and low confidence. He always had talent, but his unhealthy thoughts prevent him from realizing it. It's easy to say that someone is like a "different person" once they overcome their flaws and become very capable, but in reality, that's just who they really are.
his sensei was the strongest hashira in his generation, which explains how capable thunder breathing is if jigoro mastered it all though he died in an awful death
Lmfao Lupas reaction at the end had me dying again even though i've already seen it. Man I REALLY hope he gets a few badass moments this season. With his 4 months of hardcore training and a little more confidence he could be a beast.
Spoiler alert Zenitsu is probably the only demon slayer who literally single handedly overpowered every demon he faced which include a couple of upper moons. (I'll not include yorichi🗿 that man's on a league of his own)
Why are people complaining about the dub? Let everyone be. I actually prefer the dub than hearing it in Japanese. The dub is very funny too and the voice actors did a great job.
Ok just going to ask but why do some reaction videos cut out the video itself when they talk when they clearly don't have to? it just ruins the video so someone enlighten me
i don't read the comic but if at all zenitsu able to understand that he sleep-walk alter ego does all the job done then it's not going to be that effective character to me. for zenitsu to be most loved character as it is. he never should know his power....
Character development though, sleep Zenitsu is basically Zenitsu without the fear and anxiety that limits him while awake. The moment he understands his own power is something I'm looking forward to.
