Overanalyzing Muzan's Introduction

  • Hello comrades! At some point, I thought that Muzan was a competent villain and there was a reason for that - his first meeting with Tanjiro. Yeah, he did completely fumble the bad later on, but at that point, he was awesome. He took control of the situation, he read young Kamado like an open book and escaped without issue. However, I want to go a step further and look into this scene frame by frame. Hope you find this overanalyzes of Muzan's first encounter with Tanjiro interesting and/or entertaining.
    Thanks for watching, YOU ARE AWESOME!

    The saddest part about Muzan is that his introduction was so good but poor planning and outlining basically rendered it all mute. He was supposed to be an Aizen style manipulator but just ended up being dumb

    Additionally: notice his eyes, specifically, the way they turn into slits when he's looking at Tanjiro, vs when he's trying to appear normal. His pupils slit when Tanjiro touches him, and then again when he cuts that guy, and then once more when he sees Tanjiro's earrings because he remembers who those belong too.

    Honestly Muzan literally being Michael Jackson was so offputting i laughed out loud with tears in my eyes the first time i watched the episode, but even back then something was tingling the back of my mind. I went and rewatched the episode a couple of times and damn, that was a strong Main Villan introduction. Not as powerful as, say, Madara's or Meruem's, but the context was also very different since we were getting introduced to the big bad in episode 7.
    There's the looming question of "why the fUck did he send those two weakass Demons to deal with Tanjiro instead of doing literally anything else" but that's a plot problem, not a problem of the scene

    This and the aches of him eliminating the Lower Moons really made Muzan seem like a terrifying threat so far above the heroes that it seemed impossible to match him.
    Then the rest of the series happened and Muzan apparently dropped at least 40 IQ points.

    Muzan: “he’s just honoring him, he’s not His ancestor I could smell it”
    Lower demons: “so we’re strong enough to beat him?”
    Muzan: “for you’re sake yes”
    Lower demons: “and if he just so happens to be capable of killing us”
    Muzan “then I’ll tell Akaza I want him on the hunt if you’re not alive to go meet with him”
    Lower demons “what will you do in this time?”
    Muzan (has yorichi flashback) “I will not assist you I’ve got bisuneysss”
    I feel like something like that could have allowed Muzan to look like someone who actually is capable of utilizing one of his brains will still making the remaining events the same. Then when Akaza comes out of knower he’d be like “yo it took me forever to find you I didn’t know Rengoku was gonna be here Maby he was like, hiding in demon slayer h.q. or something, if so I can’t track it for some reason”
    Akaza and by default Muzan after learning about wysteria would realize the reason Tanjiro was so hard to track, his suit is coded in that stuff that hides his sent. Throughout the Hantagu and Gyoko ark Muzan would spend his time studying Wysteria and eventually developing a way to track it leading to him not only be able to track Tanjiro but ds hq to.
    At least that’s my take on it, it’s not gonna do anything other then make muzan look smarter but I still think him being smarter would add a lot to the series.

    This was from your previous video but I know it's your comment on how Michael Jackson self killed half of a dozen of the strongest fighters Well it was actually the right choice There are 2 reasons why 1 It would stop Demon slayers from being recognized as Without any ranked demons being killed It will be harder for you to become a Pillar 2 They were doing their jobs Constantly getting killed being replaced They were overall useless, Yes hundreds of unwranked demons who are on the level of the lower ranks So they weren't that useful. Anyway what do you think about this

      My solution:

      That way you have a higher chance to defeat the Demon Slayers.
      If you disobey my order and don't work together I will kill every last one of you, understand?!"

    I had a question type first impressions of muzan. Up to this point it was said that the demon king can make demons, but just had a normal human family.at first I thought he may have a control or memory ability to have a daughter with no suspects. It did seem he is strong, but for him to be targeted by assassin made me questioned his position. (The assassin I am referring to is the demon that has three clones and can make shadow puddles.)
