Demon Slayer: I have a pretty serious like/hate relationship with this one. I don't think I've ever seen such a wildly imbalanced show in my life. On one hand, it has some of the most incredibly animated action I've ever seen with moments that genuinely get my heart pumping. On the other hand, it has some of the worst writing I've ever endured to go with it. The dialogue and interior monologues are particularly atrocious and it was physically painful for me to get through the early episodes. Eventually I started fast forwarding through bits that annoyed me (such as basically any time Zenitsu gets on his bullshit) which helped. It gets a bit more tolerable in the latest season but also starts transforming into a typical shonen that all but gives up on storytelling and milks fights for several episodes. Still, the latest climax was one incredible sight to behold. This show has some SERIOUS negatives, but the positives make it worth it - at least as long as I can fast forward when I want.
