Tanjiro monologing about how painful he feels and how uncomfortable he is when he fights these wacky demons is so relatable

Shounen hero inner monologue: Yes, yes, yes! I. Feel. Great. I! CAN! DO! THIS! YES!

LOL im curious as to why he was so surprised though. Initially, I thought he was surprised because it was a hot fish and he'd just regained his skin so he was sensing heat for the first time when Dororo shoves it into his face lol. But it's implied by the end of the ep that he regained his nerves but if that is the case, that would mean at this point, he did not have any nerves and therefore shouldn't be able to feel any physical sensation such as pain, heat, or cold.

Now, i think he might have been shook because this lil blob of gray fire that has been hanging around him suddenly shoved food in his face so he was just surprised that it would do such a thing.

ahh i hope you don’t mind if i reply back! i’ve been thinking about the same thing as you (and i already love this series even after only 2 eps so i’ve been overanalyzing too much 😂)

yeah he doesn’t have his sense of touch at the time, so all he had was his “spiritual sense” to detect the souls of living creatures. and based on what we’ve seen, hyakkimaru is able to “see” not only just the color of the soul, but also a general outline of the person’s body as well:

so if we were to imagine what it would’ve “looked” like to hyakkimaru when dororo handed the cooked fish, he most likely only perceived that dororo put his arm out towards hyakkimaru. but hyakkimaru has no clue what dororo was holding.

he wouldn’t have been able to detect the fish (which he caught before) because it was already dead. there are possibly 2 thoughts that i can think of that could’ve went through his mind:

1. hyakkimaru is startled because no one really has ever given anything to him before. he doesn’t know what to do, how to react; it’s so unexpected for him because people usually just pass by him.

Yeah, samurais do not have a rosy history like they’d like you to believe.

I was legit disappointed in ep 1. Their marketing strategy needs improvement. Like why put all the male characters on the main poster, implying there aren't any female charas when there are?? (or maybe cause they'll all die in the next ep) Nonetheless, ep 1 wasn't interesting story wise. Just pretty. :/

Yeah, its as if they were trying to trick women into watching...except that crowd will simply drop it when it’s obvious the advertising is different from the product

I cant even agree on the pretty, tbh.I feel like they go way overboard on the filters, The scene composition and change is kinda off for me, character movenment was weird as fuck (ep01 starts with a guy walking but the way he walked was too strange) and finally character design was also not something that pleased me, with the small bodies, huge eyes and bigger tits

jfc Handshakers was the WORST. WHY are they doing this? (Then again, they shat the bed so hard with s2 of K that I'm kind of glad they're leaving it behind....)

Are they leaving it behind? I think there are around four movies out or something, but no one has translated so i dunno what those are about (if prequels, remakes or sequels to K). But y6eah, no idea why handshakers was chosen to get a sequel

they wanted to pull an early april fools joke?

Jokes need to be funny tho

Wait, W'z is a sequel to Hand Shakers??? I was going to try ep. 1 but now I'm out. I didn't even last a single ep. with Hand Shakers - dropped in within few minutes,

Seems so, the staring expo dialogue goes off about people needing to hold hands to get Gods to grant their wishes, and /a/ said MC is the son of Handshakers protag and W’z happens 10 years after handshakers. I tried watching it (W’z) on its own merit but gave up half way

WELP. I can now safely accept that Kproject was only a decent success because GoRA were decent writers. Rewatched s1 again recently and it was still a great watch. The shows writing and the episode directing worked together harmoniously to develop a good story with likeable cast.

I have not seen a single show by GoHands since Kproject that has done that kind of story building and character writing since then. Coppelion was bland. Handshaker was took the worst parts of K Project and tried to make a show entirely out of it. And if W'z is anything like Handshaker, I will no longer be able to hold GoHands in high regards as studio. I want good story and characters, not just polished animation. And plz stop making EVERYONE look like they are 12-15 orz

Thanks for another liveblog of KnY! I look forward to the next one!

LOVE IT! SOLID DESIGN

I wonder if they had to pay for those passes. The samurai seemed pretty chill letting 2 kids from outside enter the quarry village without question when Yajiro had to sneak people out by moonlight.
