MANKO MAN I MISSED YOU MAN NOW DROP SOME WISDOM MY BOY

[@MHRNA]

DS manga sold very well before Ufotables adapation...not everyones obsessed with it for animation alone.

[@craig9908]

Yh but that was just off the massive hype of s1 the shows biggest strength is its animation

[@MHRNA]

@@craig9908 I agree, but I don't think most people do. People like the characters, not the plot

[@thomasffrench3639]

This is objectively correct. They wouldn’t buy the manga if they only liked the animation. They also like the characters, their designs and the story. This BS about people not caring is so false considering that it’s Ufotable’s biggest work, and isn’t even as well animated as some of their other stuff.

[@Parshwa_Nathwani]

00:12 damn he be predicting it

[@jofolks01]

And also, it wouldn't be as creepy if the fish is in 2D.

[@ImperiusFate]

Animation breakdown on the Upper Moon meeting will be insane, hopefully it comes out soon.

[@Dephlazgmatus]

Don't really care much about DS but your analysis is always entertaining, so here's a comment, a viewing and a like

[@Mefrius]

Your videos are much more interesting then entirety of Demon Slayer. I watch your videos without breacks and they feels like they are not 30 minutes but like 5. Thank you for your work!

[@lucashubbard5998]

Fuck off, Demon Slayer's amazing

[@user-og6pb6dd5p]

​@@lucashubbard5998Ever heard of Something called opinion?

[@effortless4588]

Ok buddy no more demon slayer for you then

[@elismart13]

i fully disagree but ok, he doesnt care nor pay attention to most parts of the "story" you heard what he said you probs do the same

[@Mefrius]

@@elismart13 i just doesn't accept explaination long after show showed something. Like conflict of Akaza and Rengoku

[@NotDIO123]

Whenever Mankoman uploads it makes me happy , always giving us informative and enjoyable videos .

[@acehighbase]

We've missed you man, I was surprised that they decided to make demon fish in 3D and I agree it would look better if the fish were less shiny and the texture was different. I'm really curious in what form they're going to adapt the rest of the manga since after this season there's a mini training arc with 10 chapters. In my opinion there will be another season and "vs upper moon 1" movie (fight against kokushibo is the best in the series imo and Abe's genius would shine since the amount of breathing style effects is huge)

[@chapri_from_chapra5443]

15:31 Actually Nezukos ability is burning demon and demon-related stuff Ruis threads, Enmus ropes, Daki, etc. while not harming humans. So, in S2 when they were infected with Gyutaros poison essentially his blood She just burnt the poison (blood) away. It didnt heal them. Secondly you broke down ep19 you can see the blade turn red when Nezukos blood ignites. I know DS doesnt have strong writing but c'mon

[@RUSHYRUSHY39]

While I agree with you, I don’t think he cares enough to pay attention to those things which he’s stated before. So even your correction isn’t really valuable to him because it’s not why he watches this show lol. But yes, burning demons is her main ability and I like how it’s stayed consistent despite everyone who watches this not using their brains to understand what she’s doing logistically.

@@RUSHYRUSHY39 yeahhh......

[@divyanshrai4421]

@@RUSHYRUSHY39 Bro then convince him don't watch the show

[@darbs1832]

@@RUSHYRUSHY39 I mean, if he's paying as close attention to the actual story as he is with the animation/animators/composers/interns on each scene, it shouldn't be a difficult task to understand Nezuko's ability.

Rip to Abe when it comes to the Infinity Castle Arc

[@bingevilla]

god every day i pray for a dorohedoro s2 🙏

[@rrbcraftergames3361]

To anyone who has an answer, whenever Abe animates a cut, like his cut in this episode, does he storyboard his own stuff or does the staff at ufotable storyboard it for him and he animates it.

[@arac_modeyt9467]

Yeah leaks are saying the next episode and every episode after will be much more stable production wise lol

[@josecuevas-wu4qr]

this man is amazing .......🤩🤩🤩

[@Mefrius]

4 hours Nozomu Abe video from you... Now I don't know what I'm waiting for more: jjk season 2 or your video

[@ImperiusFate]

20:45 Gyokko is Upper Moon 5 Hantengu is Upper Moon 4

[@-MankoMan]

Yes, I know. What I say there is that I would rather have Gyokko as 4 and Hantengu as 5.

[@Aircrusher]

I didnt apreciate how they animated gyoko and the overall execution of his character in the anime until this video

[@rrbcraftergames3361]

There was one other episode featuring him and it was the upper moon meeting, and his scene was smooth as hell idk wut ur talking bout.

[@osooso6027]

I don't want to be that guy asking for stuff on an unrelated video but I hope you go over that latest One Piece episode (1062), a lot of sequences in that episode were amazing.

Well episode 7 broke the streak and it was also pretty mid . Specially those dragon are somewhat offputing and Tbh that episode's visuals are 90% good but its not enough to sideline the fact that it was drag to finish pacing quite literally left the chat

Unfortunately for you Demon Slayer got a better adaptation than Fate/Stay Night.

​@@thomasffrench3639I wonder why Type Moon projects always have the priority then

@@Alternatively2-jg7fs but it’s apparently not a priority enough to adapt the Fate Route.

Honestly, super fans themselves are shitting on the adaptation rn. Especially with the shitty pacing of the episodes.

Could you please teach me about animation analysis

[@-MankoMan]

Sorry, but there is just a huge language barrier between Japanese and English. Animation analysis is just me going through some sakuga scenes and talking about it.
