Nah bruh, the old man from episode 1 saved Demon Slayer, he told Tanjiro not to go home late at night, so he saved Demon Slayer

The impact Rengoku left on the story in spite of his fleeting moments on screen cements him as an all time goated character 🔥

[@gallenberger1]

It's pretty amazing right? Who are some other characters you appreciate?

[@thetacticalpuertorican]

Rengoku is partially deaf. Thats one of the reasons for the way he speaks.

[@gallenberger1]

@@thetacticalpuertorican That's a cool detail

[@faa1412]

Rengoku was the first character to make me cry in an anime show. And I've watched a lot of anime since Demon Slayer; his scenes still hold the record for the most tear-jerking.

[@rafzombie9896]

The reason people remember him is because he died the way he lived Too many anime’s have happy endings of characters who have righteous anger turning the fight around, and Mollywhopping the villain, Akaza made a clean escape with tanjiro being the one to piss him off and lose his cocky state. I’m glad that demon slayer has shown that living for ideals doesn’t always have the happiest of endings. But can be beautiful anyway when we define how we die and not the other way around.

Saw this in theaters and it was fucking sweet. Rengoku really did set the silver screen ablaze.

Rengoku is the older brother everyone deserves. Also, that "shrimp tempura" thing is actually just a joke Rengoku says while making a crying child laugh in the spinoff manga.

[@jefflong5831]

This is the best Rengoku analysis I've seen, while being super easy to understand

[@gallenberger1]

Appreciate it, that means a lot. Rengoku is an awesome character with a special legacy.

[@Dougall12]

I liked your emphasis on how important Rengoku was. His presence is felt everywhere. In the Entertainment distract Tanjiro saw Rengoku’s image next to Tengen as a reminder to keep going. I didn’t know the fact about his hair design too, awesome analysis!

[@gallenberger1]

Good call on the Rengoku image by Tengen, that was awesome too.

I'm So Glad Other People Can See How Great Rengoku Is. Cause I'm Not Gonna Lie I Was Honesty Getting Tiered Of Demon Slayer Criticism Videos Talking Shit About Him.

Not only that, brah. I watched this character in Christmas 2020, the year that I almost had my life ruined and took time to get myself straight. And you are right, he hits home both the story and the audience.

Why do all the users of fire/flame become doughnuts

[@gallenberger1]

🤣

[@Anthonybrother]

And then there's Liu Kang who is a fire user who can transform *others* into doughnuts.

[@TuffJuff]

Fantastic video. Makes me want to watch Mugen Train again. Having Goku in the name definitely gives him a presence right away. Wonder if that was intentional

[@gallenberger1]

Had to be intentional imo.

[@natalimoina]

Definitely not intentional. It just stands out because we don't know Japanese. Rather, the names in demon slayer are all chosen to have some sort of meaning (as in Japanese names can have actual words in them). Rengoku means "purgatory".

Hey, at the beginning of your Vegeta Changed Anime Forever video, you mentioned that Vegeta has never been replicated but he has been duplicated. I know what you were trying to say, but you got it backwards. A replica is something that looks like the real thing and is very close, but a duplicate is an exact copy/clone.
