Demon Slayer season 3 (Swordsmith Village Arc) episode 3 review: The demons mostly overpower the slayers here

One demon from the Upper Rank has unleashed his potential and you did not see it coming is an understatement.

Demon Slayer.

Story:

Swordsmith Village is attacked by the demons. Can Tanjiro save himself and everyone involved?

Review:

Episode three of Demon Slayer: Swordsmith Village Arc commences where the last ended – with Tanjiro discovering the antique sword. The expressions and actions which follow are not appealing. The scene turns funny but it takes long for that to happen. Swordsmith Haganekuza is at the centre of that with, of course, Tanjiro.

Genya is very much in his character even in this episode. He too has some funny moments for no reason.

Nezuko is back. She is adorable as the kid. However, that is not the only side you see to her in this episode.

The demons are here and the first one’s entry, even if as expected, is still extremely impactful. This is mainly because of the music.

The show actually gets better with that scene. Before that, you are just left wandering in the story with Tanjiro at the centre of it and nobody balancing his personality out.

Tokito is back too. You get to learn some more things about his personality with this episode.

Finally, Tokito, Tanjiro and Nezuko are seen in action. Of course, Tanjiro takes the limelight among them. Sekido and Karaku show their true selves this time. Thankfully enough, the makers also hint that Tokito will show his skills soon after. The disappointment here is, he didn’t throughout the episode.

The post-credit scene on the show is not something that you will miss. Whether you watch it or not, that doesn’t matter this time.

Verdict:

Demon Slayer season 3 finally gets interesting. The demons are here to wreck havoc and you cannot miss that!
