(Hopefully Chris sees this):
The animation for the dance is as you described. It's called rotoscoping. And it's both very difficult and time consuming even with technology to help since it's likely 60 frames per second on the person dancing.
Woah. Now that's sone heavy stuff.
Flashback to chika dancing
This was super stylised roto too looks better than most
No anime is 60fps
@@Ju4n530 The animation on that dancing is. Only briefly.
The 12 Demon Moons
Upper 1 - 6
Lower 1 - 6
1 being the strongest and 6 being the weakest of each group, but Upper 6 is still stronger than all the lower moons.
There's a huge gap between the lower and upper moons too
In other words: he was 11
I thought there was lower 12 and upper 12 oof lmfao
If thats true, its kinda sad that musan did what he did at ep 26 just cuz lower 5 was defeated.
upper moon** and lower moon**
it will be so much less awkward saying the upper moons than saying the upper 6 kizuki bullshit
Somehow some people didn't notice this but this is the first time ever that Nezuko talks since she became a demon.
But it's her voice in the head, unfortunately
It’s hard when everyone is engrossed into the moment.
I realised it the fourth time rewatching it
I love the first time she talks.
i was too hyped to notice
Fun fact: The Mangaka cried when they saw that fight animated.
I want a link
i mean, they made it 100x more beautiful than the manga, its supposed to be a really simple scene
@@barghest8763 that's ufotable 🙌✨
@@indianflippingart9593 yup. ufotable are gods at animating. This and the fate series (that saber alter vs berserker fight thooo)
@Nina Tote the author of a manga, also known as Mangaka. The author of demon Slayer is theorized to be female but they make their identity anonymous
Damn i just realised that when shinobu said that when ur life flashes in front of your life, you are actually finding a solution to survive is the same situation at tanjiro using hinokami kagura for the first time, his entire life flashes in his eyes, that resulted to him finding out about hinokami, and using it to survive
**the forshadow**
Fun facts:
Hinokami means God of Fire in Japanese mythology.
Koyoharu Gotōge, the author of this manga series, cried after watching the anime adaptation of this episode.
Ufotable is the Japanese animation studio that did an excellent and superb job for the animations in this series.
The beautiful song that played at the end of this episode is named *"Kamado Tanjiro no Uta''* performed by Go Shiina featuring Nami Nakagawa.
Thanks a lot for that info
Im Surprised that the author cried. I didn’t know that
I don’t wanna spoiler about Hinokami, but actually hinokami does not mean God of Fire(火の神)
↓
It is Got of Sun(日の神). In Shintoism (Japanese religion), Amaterasu God(Goddess of Sun) is the highest rank of all million of gods.
@@abody2525 yeah the author wrote a tweet after seeing this episode where she mentioned how she shed tears of joy because of how her work was so perfectly adapted. The secret to Studio UFOTABLE's amazing animation in both Demon Slayer and the Fate series is because they are inventors of the Total Concentration, Breath of Good Animation First Form: Unlimited Budget
Jokes aside, the author really did cry. And the secret behind the amazing adaptations and consistantly amazing animation by Studio UFOTABLE is the fact that they rely on in-house animators instead of outsourcing projects to other animators the way other shows do
@@abody2525 It's what every manga artist's dream come true, to see your creation that came from your very own imagination to get beautifully adapted by a very talented studio.
I was totally blind when I watched this episode and didn’t know that this episode was gonna be the highlight of the anime. When I saw the dance and the boss music playing in the background my heart left my chest for a moment. 😬
Des Gun X same here, I had a genuine blind reaction to this show/ episode. I felt all the true emotions
I knew the anime was good because of the huge spike in manga sales. But i was not expecting this episode to be soo good
Y'all need to thank ufotable for such a great animation that made a lot of people cry
That day it came out was so fire, everyone watching the show got blindsided from how great the episode was. Literally cause the internet to go crazy
If only I could go into it blind without anyone hyping it for me in advance.
So happy for Nahid, this episode was worth the wait!
Agreed, only Nahid and Rana’s clapping was acceptable. The other guys where always calling episodes “fillers” and comparing it to other animes with way more episodes and seasons.
I think this is one of the few times I’ve seen him
Like truly stunned and silent. That’s basically how I was through this whole scene.
The fact that this fight is pretty average & forgettable in the manga but Ufotable makes it one of the best ep. is very amazing..when all the Upper Moon's Fight got animated..all of those fight will makes ep.19 looks like shit..Basically every Upper Moon Fight are likes 1000 Times better & Hyper than this fight
Ufotable made this so much better than what it was. When I read this in the manga, I was nowhere as hyped as I was while watching the anime which gives me so much hope for the latter fights when its actually insanely good in the manga as well
@@SanketBansalshanky yup..i didnt got hyped for this fight when i 1st read it in the manga..but all the upper moon fight makes me hype as shit..now imagine how hype those fight will be in Anime Form!!
@@7evilartz981 I feel like they might pull a one punch man where they went all out for the 1st season and the seasons after it might not live up to the expectations idk I hope I'm wrong
@@7evilartz981 yep. Can't wait for the movie and Akaza fights and upper moon 1 fight
@@zero3644 I hope not but given that it's ufotable, I expect the quality to stay if not improve
It’s still funny that half of the group believes that the elements of water are visual and the other half thinks the water, fire, thunder, and etc breathing techniques are real lol
Edit: As a manga reader I agree that it’s inconsistent :) visual or not I just found it interesting of what the reactors think, not complaining about it
honestly it becomes confusing later in the manga too where the fire seems to actually affect/burn things? So no one can reasonably blame them, it seems like an author problem.
I want to believe it like that too
@@GoodCopsBadCops no, the fire that burns is nezukos blood
Well the water breathing is the only one CONFIRMED to be only visual (chapter 151.5, I think) , the others are kinda open to interpretation I guess, and I’m going with they’re real, otherwise some stuff wouldn’t mKe much sense
@@dan_mnght the only time it really confused me was when he fights the swamp demon and he does the water basin thing where several pillars of water come down
This show is art. Plain and simple. The music moves you, the images enthrall you, the characters inspire you. It can’t get better than this. This is God tier storytelling.
And people have the nerve to say this show is bad. Not like everyones saying its the best story thats ever been written, but its just trendy I think to hate on it.
imagine thinking an anime is "god tier storytelling". let me guess, you think Star Wars and Superhero movies are too? lol, foh
@@caesar.5252 Are you okay?
@@AkimboJV yeah, why wouldnt I be? Do you assume anyone that doesn’t agree with you is miserable? That’s one helluva world view you have my friend.
@@caesar.5252 You didn't just disagree. You tried to put down my obviously hyperbolic opinion like a fuckin weirdo lol. You took it literally and still think you're smart....yikes. Did you not learn how to conduct yourself socially when you were young? Or are you still young and dumb? Just stop being a snob and let people enjoy things. You'll be happier for it. People will like you better as well.
And no, that's not my world view; it is my view about you though. I hope you can figure out the difference. Funny that you dig at me for assuming while you assume something. Now, what are some examples of media that you think are "superior"? Let's see if you're actually original. Answer my question, or fuck off and be a troll somewhere else; preferably a hole somewhere so you can't bother anyone.
Just when they hit you with some of the best animations you'll see in anime, they hit you with the credit screen of feels outta no where like WHOA.. great episode this one.
One of the best yes
Tanjiro and nezuko: *dying*
Dude on the far right: lmaoooo
I like how the last episode they were like “this episode is so good!”
And this episode they were like “HOLY FUCK!!”
Hinokami:
Hi=fire
No=(shows ownership)
Kami=god
Hinokami= God of Fire or Fire God
(火の神)
god of SUN
@@cibele229 yeah actually火and 日 both can be pronounced as hi . So it can be both
*That hit me to the core! From the back of my left ball!*
Nice reference
Nice afro reference 👌
Senjugang
Who tf are you guys like 3 weeks in the past
“At one point, my pants came off”
Brooo Pat was wayy too happy in this episode when everybody was so tensed lmao 😂
A year later, i still get chills watching that scene
So glad that you guys managed to watch it before quarantine 😁 This episode is truly the culmination of the best possible music, animation and voice acting to perfectly translate what the mangaka envisaged and even go beyond those expectations. Like Deku vs Todoroki, it brought the mangaka to tears. Hopefully this episode that broke the internet finally won you guys over, despite it being clear that you guys were already enjoying it because this anime will hopefully get more seasons and only get better ♥️
Also really cool to see RTTV going to normie con. 👍 Was watching their Avatar reactions alongside your guys one and they are really funny 😂
I really liked that idea of our lives flashing in front of us just to find a way to avoid dying. Makes a lot of sense just because of how much humans can put up a struggle to stay alive
They weren't blinking through that whole sequence 😁👌🏼
This was the reaction we've all been waiting for😂
16:00.. The slicing & smash sound effects.. You can really feel the impact of the sword when Tanjirou swing it at Rui's neck.. It gave me chills.. Damn.. ✨
I know this joke is overused in like every single hinokami related video on RUclips but I'm still saying it
Son : dad why is my sister named rose
Father : Because your mother loves roses
Son : thank you dad
Father : no problem , kimetsu no yaiba episode 19
Its a overused meme as a whole
What does it mean?
it's my first time seeing it so thanks!!
this is getting old
And here i am, liking the comment all over again.
That guy in the stripes laughed at Nezuko getting tortured, red flag af 👀
Yeah he said in a podcast that he didn't like season 1 of demon slayer at all.......why he's even reacting to it is beyond fucking me
@@nic_ho_las Pat needs to be removed for Demon slayer reactions
Yeah I know he ruins their reactions I can’t stand watching them with him there idk why they let him stay in certain reactions cause he’s on the bad guys he’s favorite marvel character is thanos like okay you can like a villain but not have a villain favorite who wants to genocide people fucking hate that guy
As always totally worth to wait for the reaction. I was speechless when i saw this art. Amazing!
Even though I've seen this fight so many times everytime I hear the music and watch the animation, it will always send goosebumps and chills down my spine!
You don’t know how long I waited for this
Everybody: WTF just happened?! That was AMAZING!!!
Demon Slayer Episode 19: Your Welcome
The rest of the season before 19: A steaming pile of repetitive shonen shit.
*you're
Hahahaha Oh yeah
*Ufotable
watch out eps 20. 😁
The normies finally reacted to THE UNLIMITED BUDGET!!
Did any one else notice the dog was literally smile when it first got rubbed that was the cutest thing ever
jaja yeah bro that dog is cute asf
Literally all I could pay attention to 😊
This is the one episode I’ve been waiting for y’all to see
Been waiting for so long for u guys to get up to this episode and you’re finally here, BEST episode of the season 🤩
During this whole video there was a big smile just plastered on my face. Such a wholesome time.
1000+ freaking comments and everyone are appreciating the animation in this fight...but no one's appreciating the music during this fight which pushes the fight to the next level!!!!
Such a great reaction from everyone! You can really tell how much all of you are honestly enjoying watching this show.
Just found you guys yesterday and love your content. Just wanted to say great job.
Rana's face in the background was priceless! 😲🔥 This episode broke the internet when it first came out it was so popular and now it broke the Normies too.
And that my friends, is what put Demon Slayer on the map.
It's okay Rana I cried when I first saw this episode. Rewinded it like 5 times too.
More like the episode that made demon slayer just about watchable, since the last 18 episodes were the same repetitive formula of tanjiro meeting a demon and outsmarting it.
Engie4Evar nah it was zenitsu kinda carrying the show b4 ep 19
@@untrustingstatue to be fair every action, adventure, and fighting anime will seem repetitive at some point cuz there have been so many animes made in those categories.
@@untrustingstatue it's generic but it's not horrible. It's definitely not something that you can or would like to rewatch. But this episode is definitely beautiful, props to the animators, songwriter, and everyone who are part of the scene.
@@untrustingstatue the anime was solid since the start; reminds me of classics like InuYasha or Rurouni Kenshin.
Was waiting for you guys to react to this episode, did not disappoint.
I remember when I first saw this episode. I literally jumped out of my bed and was like freaking out during this part of the fight. The animation was beautifulllll
The creator of this series, cried of joy when she saw this episode and i can see why. Its amazing
The most perfect anime scene of 2019...the animation is insane ! There are 3 kinds of animations on this scene alone, 3d, traditionnal and painting for the attack...It's pretty unique and the music is just perfection ! Can't wait for the movie !
Mob psycho 100 season 2 ep 11 begs to differ.
Or Vinland Saga ep 18. Or Carole and Tuesday ep 24
@@DXDragon38 episode 19 is perfect man Sorry
bruh that's cap mob had better fights animation-wise than this
Are we just going to ignore the fact Saber Alter vs. Berserker was a thing? Cause that was animated by the same studio as well, and was much crazier.
@@jerenmckey1800 The episode 11 of season 2 mob psycho had insane animation throughout the whole episode however in this episode the Amazing animation was there for 5 min, it's amazing don't get me wrong but mob psycho is just a gem of animation
Ive been waiting so long for this reaction to come out!! 👏🏽😍
When I saw it in the dub, before the Hinokami Kagura moment (which, by the way, was amazing), I was so drawn to Rui's voice. That deep voice really got me every time he spoke. I think you should check out the dub because of that alone. The Hinokami Kagura moment was also amazing, I got really excited when Nezuko spoke and unleashed her Blood Demon Art.
When its your first day as a main character
"ughh, that last attack was so powerful, i have- uh- five- uh, dislocated.......spinal........ribs?"
Damn I can never get over people's reactions to this episode. It's so damn intense!
Finally episode 19!!! Thank you so much for reacting!!
was waiting for so long for yall to react to this............jeezus its too good
Tanjiro: Mom, how come you have 6 kids even though Dad is so frail?
Mom: Ara, ara
**breathing intensifies**
Edit: Wtf, 200 likes? This is the most I have ever gotten. Thankyou guys
Fire breathing broo firee 🔥
Postman whistles in the background..........
Father: im hinokami son :v
Nice pfp
@@mr.fufucudlypoops8207 Thanks. Made it myself
9:49 why is he laughing...
Dont mind him. I think hes really just an add on
he’s that one guy that hates everything the good guys do
It's his first anime I believe, so I think he's just shook at how dark a cartoon gets
he is first-timer watching anime, he doesn't like anime but DM is an exception. And yeah I don't understand how he's laughing at that scene.
I think he's just laughing because he managed to predict it right this time that Nezuko did got cut again. You know it's just like those times were shallow things would make us really lough out so hard for such simple reasons.
Even when I watched this episode soooooo many times I still have to stop myself from crying.
i subbed after your episode one reaction wanting to see the reaction to this. i have picked up some other reactions. sds and lost to start and i really enjoy your content keep it up!
The transitions with the music, the flash backs, and the fight than it flows into the credits with some seriously heart warming family pics just broke me. Couldn't control those tears...
'I thought Hino was sun, I was close!'
Oh girl, you're MUCH MUCH closer than you think you are.
HOLY SHIT THANK THE GODS I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THEM TO REACT TO THIS SINCE EP 7 RACTION
😆 your reactions where awesome!!!! Loved it. I was like yes!!! they get it too. The ladies are so sweet bless. Totally appreciate the animation, visuals everything. I know this show is not everyone's cup of tea but visually, its a master piece.
Lower 5 means his rank is 11th in The 12 kizuki. Example: Lower 1 would be the top rank in the lower tier; making that demon the 7th strongest of the 12. Ya dig?
Just a friendly reminder that for the guy on the right, this is his first anime
Carmilla Karnstein even though his doucheness comes out sometimes (that’s being nice)
Man I been waiting for you guys to reach this episode to see you guy's reaction! 😂😂 cuz when I first watched this shit, I almost broke my Xbox one controller watching dis shit I was so hype! Too tier animation, like Rana said, the music had me in my feels almost cried a lil bit, it was just too good. 🔥🔥
This episode still givesme chills and i watched this scene for atleast 50 times
Rui is specifically number 11. Thats what “lower five,” means. Since there’s 12 total, they’re split into the upper and lower 6, on a decreasing spectrum. So lower 5 being just one spot from the bottom, is number 11.
rana had the best reaction, it was on point, everytime, i love you rana
I’ve been waiting for this the whole week😭
Finally I have been waiting ages for this episode :)
Lmao just found out that moment when tanjiro's blade went through rui's neck was actually the moment when his sword changed its color from black to red (not because of nezuko's blood demon art)
Tanjiro: Mom how come dad has 5 children when he's so frail?
Mom: It's all about breathing.
Honestly my favorite episode, love watching your guys reactions
I have been waiting for them to react to this for weeks!!!!
"What are these Visuals??? God is that you??? *_Is this what sex feels like??!!"_*
-that one RUclipsr who reacted to Deku vs Overhaul
Vinland Saga! You won't be disappointed!
Best normie reaction, so many people were waiting for this reaction everywhere. People watch reaction videos to see other people react the same way they did, to have someone to share their reaction with.
Waited 19 weeks for this reaction ;-; so worth
Episode 1: "this is a patreon request, really not sure about this show, might not continue, eh, so so" etc etc
Ep 19: 16:24
I wonder if in two episodes, someone would shed a tear for a certain sickly boy~
Fantastic reaction btw, visual porn indeed

What a quintessential episode to end on, as the last group reaction on the red couch.
Also can we take a second and appreciate the DOPE card art they made for the episode?!?! Thats sick! Good job Normies!
Nezuko's blood dropping on Tanjiro's blade ignited it, and allowed him to cut through his neck.
Haha we've all watched the next episode yknow
@@huntedguy9013
You say we like I know who you are
No it didn’t. Rui cut his own head off, he literally says it the next ep
@@lenalouwho4100 It did NOT start going through until it got hot. (The elemental effects are just effects. They aren't actually there. Tanjiro doesn't produce fire.) Rui wasn't expecting it to even start cutting, BUT when it did he finished the slash with his threads in response.
Rui FINISHED the sever.
The sword DID cut into him and was only able to do so after nezuko's blood ignited the blade.
'I' said the blade igniting allowed him to CUT THROUGH the neck I did NOT say it allowed him to sever the head.
So you can take your WeLl AcTuAlLy back haha
Ep 19 and they still think the water is real :O
Michal Vana it’s confirmed by the mangaka that it’s all visual but the manga says otherwise
Everyone thought the water was real lol
m6usy the Manga just says it’s only Visual about the water breathing style in chapter 151.5 or sth like that; the other are neither confirmed nor denied to be real or visual only
Well I mean when I guy says "dead calm" and some unexplained shit happens you really start to question it.
It will be real till the day I die idc
Dude the first time I saw this episode of Demon I was so shocked and in a state where I was about to cry so hard man this animation and art was so breath taking I cannot describe how beautiful it was and the way they portrayed the fire it’s so crazy
I absolutely love this episode watched many times, but the beginning of episode 26 I really enjoyed also 🪕👹🩸🩸🩸🩸 looking forward to the reaction 😁

This episode is amazing and your reaction was really good. The only thing I hate is the fact that there were people who just can´t shut up and keep saying things like "I can´t wait for you to see X episode". It takes away the surprise factor from the episode and is basically a way to make spoilers about when exactly something cool/important is going to happen.
Exactly, even if they don't go into specifics, hyping up the episode sets unnecessarily high expectations for that episode. And if the episode doesn't end up living up to it, you come out disappointed. Those people aren't ruining the story, but they are ruining the overall experience and that makes them just as bad. I know they're excited but why can't they just keep that excitement to themselves. Why do they have to put in the comment section and ruin in for anyone watching it for the first time?
I love watching reaction videos around moments like this, the only bad thing is that in groups like this, many moments are missed cuz of ppl talking and whatnot

I know Pat likes to be pro villain in his reactions and I usually can see the humour in that, but in this reaction it just felt wrong.
Yeah not gonna lie, it felt a bit weird when he laughed at nezuko getting taken but it mostly hit me when he was enjoying seeing nezuko get messed up.
He even goes: "*He stabbed her up some more!? 😃"* and then laughs when he sees her tangled up. Hes cool still but i see where your coming from
Bruh he thinks it makes him look cool. Typical meathead stuff

I have two younger sisters, and this part of the anime and any show/movie that presses hard on a family member being tortured or killed, effects me.
I don't care who you think you are but in these times, a dude claiming to act like a grown adult male laughs out loud and keels over doing so from a female being ripped apart, is asking for an internet gang up beat down.
That made this over 45yr old a little sick to my guts.

OIY! 🤦♂️
those animation of water breathing, etc are just for visualization it's not like suddenly water comes out of swords, it's just there to help us see different sort of breathing techniques.
imaging recognizing different moves simply by sword movements.
DANCE OF THE FIRE GOD: fun fact (no spoiler) the dad was frail and weak, but in the manga (they don’t show in the anime) with the axe tanjiro used in ep 1, his dad killed a grizzly bear attacking him and kid tanjiro, like instsntly and easily, using the breathe style tanjiros family passes down.
