Leaked chapter spoilers |
---|
Spoilers are out, and Rushed Ending route is confirmed, and boy it is even more rushed and disappointing than I expected. Whole 2-chapter Demonjiro thing is just to give Tanjiro his eye and arm back. The medicine that took Nezuko hours to work, worked on Tanjiro within seconds. Then the power of friendship manifested, and the ghost of Tanjiro's dead friends and family basically erased a thousand years of Muzan's memories out of Tanjiro's mind (Alt+F4). Muzan is also a whining moustache twirling villain, so his development is undone. To be fair the fight between Wani and the editors was legit intense compared to the Muzan and Demonjiro fight. My hypothesis for how this went down:
Hopefully there is minimum or no cringe rushed romance development next chapter (There is still some this chapter with Zenitsu immediately begging Nezuko to marry him), and the ending is as straight-forward as possible, and they better not tease any spinoffs as this could've been done with a better ending. At least the journey was great. |
Where in the previous arc is a desperate villain beatable because he forgot he can use his ability to win all along for over an hour. The previous arcs has been pretty free of plot-induced stupidiy and things flowed logically.Dragonmasterxyz said:I disagree with this as I find the writing to be on point with the earlier arcs, the writing seemed to fit what we've gotten previously. And the ending with everything Tanjiro has done saving him in the end really felt deserved.
Muzan gained depth just before his death by acknowledging Kagaya was right, and by embracing human emotions which he previously perceived as weakness. But nope; downgraded back to be forever one dimensional.Dragonmasterxyz said:How does it get undone. Explain this?
Gotouge's statement is that there are consequences; not that people die if they are killed (which wouldn't be contradicted by plot armor; for example having Genya's healing greatly enhanced from eating parts of UM1, or having Muichiro sliced through his leg instead of torso). This goes against Tanjiro's heavy plot armor when the author is supposedly not afraid to kill characters. Obviously, I am making a guess rather than a concrete claim, which is why it is called a hypothesis, also this is supporting evidence to the previous arcs being better planned where it doesn't look like the author wrote themselves into corners.Dragonmasterxyz said:However, her statement is not contradicted[...]
The ghosts displayed the ability to communicate, and perhaps manifest in a dream world (Sabito and Makamo, Zenitsu's grandfather), but this is outright high-tier mind/memory manipulation out of nowhere. A clear example of deus ex machina. Curing Tanjiro could've been done in a more convincing manner by a more prolonged mental battle, but this is either extremely rushed (which implies poor planning for the arc early on), or extremely lazy.Dragonmasterxyz said:Or it could be that his allies and family helping him out here drove the memories out which was a major source of the corruption. This was a mental battle here in which the outside help overpowered and erased Muzan's memories. Simply being "Power of Friendship" =/= make it bad or an auto asspull as like I said, it felt like a perfect ending as in this case all the good Tanjiro did and all the support he got overpowered Muzan's memories.
It is explained by the properties of Yoriichi's bright red blade which negates Muzan's Regenerationn. Repetedly calling them weakpoints and emphasizing that the characters have the intention to aim for them did not contribute to the plot.TriforcePower1 said:I personally found that attention on Muzan's hearts and brains as the author explaining how Yoriichi could almost kill Muzan despite the latter being immune to almost anything outside of the sun.
Nope, people feel emotions and that is fine; we are humans not robots. But Fairy Tail got brought up, which is the poster manga for cool emotional scenes that often don't make sense, and the emotional impact was emphasized even though my points were about the coherency of the writing. A good story arc is satisfactory in both first impressions and after introspection, I believe the final arc falls short in the later.DragonGamerZ913 said:So basically, in your eyes, anyone that got emotional over this only did so because they didn't think about it? That's a false generalization for the sake of fitting your narrative.
He was supposed to be a coward, but dying pathetically is is a different thing, you can make him fall from grace once he actually showed that he had it. All we saw was him being a coward throughout the series, and in the single battle he has, he just ripped off Parasytes from kiseijuu.DemonGodMitchAubin said:Muzan was always supposed to be a coward who would die pathetically...
