Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Vol. 16 by Koyoharu Gotouge
5.0
Another awesome volume for an awesome series.
There were a lot of little things that I liked, like Giyo and Tanjiro trying to formulate a strategy to get on Genya's brother's good side (can't wait to see how that goes lol) and Inosuke, Zenitsu, and Tanjiro getting some time together. Also, Zenitsu's reaction to the letter he received was chilling, he was so calm. I get the feeling badass Zenitsu's going to be making an appearance soon, which I'm hyped for! Let my boi shine more, he deserves it!
Himejima's backstory was interesting and while he's still my least favorite Hashira, I did enjoy what his backstory offered regarding the continuous theme of family and family struggles. His sword technique is super badass, though.
I am so HYPED, Shinobu got a chance to shine this volume and I am THERE FOR IT! Seeing her rage on full display and her awesome sword technique was an absolute treat. And I LOVED seeing her sister give her the strength to push on, I fucking LOVE how important family is in this series and how characters draw on their feelings towards their families for strength. I will never not love this theme, ever.
So, this volume signaled the final arc of the series. And there are 23 volumes total, right? Sooo, this final arc's gonna be 7 volumes long? *deep breath in, then out* Oh boy, this is going to be an emotionally exhausting final arc, that's for damn sure.
