I watched demon slayer just for the hype and I always thought the plot was boring, but it had good fights and animation... When this movie came out, I was expecting it be good but kind of. BUT BOY WAS I WRONG IT WAS AWESOME. When i got out of the theaters I couldn't stop talking about it. The fights, the animation, THE SOUNDTRACK!!! ALL OF IT WAS SO GOOD. This had everything anime needs to be a 10/10. Good animation, good/sad backstories, Character Development, Good Fights. Infinity Castle is probably one of the best anime movies in a while. In this review I am sharing everything I love about it. Some stuff is spoiler free, but some stuff is spoilers so watch out if you have not seen infinity castle yet
The pacing was incredible, I thought maybe we would see 1 maybe 2 fights... BUT NO... WE SAW 3, WHEN I SAW THAT I WAS SO HAPPY. I was so scared it was going to end when Tanjiro showed up... BUT I CAN"T BELIEVE WE SEEN THE FIGHT...
When I saw Akaza I was preparing for me to hate him, since he killed Rengoku (one of my favorite characters) I was expecting him to not have a sad backstory... I was expecting something like he was the one who murdered his parents or whatever, but his backstory was actually really sad. It's just more of he was ready to die after he killed the clan that killed his family, so he let Muzan do whatever (and that included turning him into a demon) I almost teared up. Let's move on to the zenitsu fight. When Zenitsu fought Kaigaku Once again I expected it to be just a normal fight, but it was actually pretty sad, He thought Jigoro picked zenitsu over him, so he turned to muzan and he got turned into a demon. I never cried over a demon slayer move (except rengoku) but akaza backstory was so sad I actually couldn't stop thinking about that for like 3 days... Poor guy lost everything, He was just lost. (The girl he was supposed to marry died to poisoning)
Now I know demon slayer has always been known for its animation and fights, BUT INFINITY CASTLE TAKES IT TO ANOTHER LEVEL. The 3d mixed with 2d animation is so good. I love anime with good ass animation, and I was like drooling because of how good the animation was. The fight scenes were already good with the story, but the animation made it 10x better.
If you think it can't get any better, well it can!!! The soundtrack during zenitsu fight was so good, it made the fight 10x better than it already was (and it was fantastic even without it). The soundtrack definitely made Akaza backstory so much sadder.
Overall, this movie made me like demon slayer a lot more. If you think demon slayer is mid, this movie will probably change your mind like it did for me!
Can't wait for part 2 and 3, I don't read the manga, but I know it is going to be HYPED!!!!
