Tomo de transición. Toca darle un booster a Tanjirö (y de paso a los otros dos xD). Me gusta mucho Inosuke, pobrecito deprimido mío sin habilidades sociales. Los pilares impresionantes, genial el de las cicatrices y el del fuego. La del pelo rosita soy yo con cualquier personaje de un libro/serie/manga xDDDDD
Llega el momento de la recuperación tras vencer en la última batalla gracias a los pilares que llegaron. Nos presentaron al resto y hubo el conflicto de Nezuko, que un cazador de demonios viajará junto a un demonio, algunos la querían matar inmediatamente y otros no. Pero el líder intercedio, además de la palabra del antiguo pilar y maestro de Tanjiro y el pilar actual del agua que se me olvido su nombre

Lower ranked Corps members die incredibly quickly, but the Hashira are different.
It’s a brutal world out there.
Volume 6 of Demon Slayer again gives the best lines to Shinobu:
When I think that you're succeeding at my sister's dream, it soothes my anger... ...and I feel better inside.
…though Giyu’s sympathy towards Tanjiro and his Nezuko shows development on his part from Volume 1.
Otherwise it’s a nice interlude, with plenty of training scenes before the next step up. Nothing too major, though the book ends with the opening of Mugen Train arc (with a bit of misdirection as to whom the main antagonist will be).
What I say is right is right.
Muzan appearing in a female form is interesting… …from an aesthetic perspective. I do not know manga well enough to understand if this is a reference to anything – within the story itself, it’s meaningless – it’s not connected to any role he plays within the world, more something he just felt comfortable wearing one morning. More of note is just how much Muzan despises the other demons before him and his literally “items to be disposed of” treatment of them. He is an orthodox evil character, which is fine and perfectly alright. I do not need it to be complicated, a straight Manichean contest works for me.
I’m docking it for still not really making Zenitsu a proper rounded character – there’s a couple of times (such as the drawings between chapters) where an alternative portrayal sneaks through, but he’s just far too much of a sex pest in the main plot. The author is capable of clever interplays, such as when Tanjiro puts the cup on Kanoe’s head, or how Shinobu tailors her motivating words to each trainee. Rather, it’s almost a stubborn refusal to have Zenitsu behave somewhat reasonably, at least, not yet.

Found it hard to follow at times and lost track of who's who a few times. Good ending though.
