Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Vol. 8 by Koyoharu Gotouge

adventurous emotional sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes

• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

It was hard to lose an exciting character so soon, and the plot slows down after the climatic battle, but the meditation on grief through various perspectives is impressive and heartfelt.
