Although I didn't adore the movie as much as some other fans did, the end was quite good and it's basically the same here. Cutting it into 6 episodes led to some poor pacing and awkward episode stops along the way though. Overall, it was a perfectly acceptable, if watered down experience compared to the movie. I still think the movie was the superior way to experience this story, although that new 1st episode was an enjoyable addition.

And ffs, they kept the same ED song as the movie. Just when the tears were drying, that song started and I was right back to square one.


I heard the bells ringing and was just like "not again..."
That song is just so good! I'm so glad they used it in the episode as well.

Make your heart burn.
Kyoujurou Rengoku is a hero.
This whole part is amazing, but also very sad :'(
That they left the ending of the movie...it sticks, but it's just that "Homura" is an amazing song.
But well, now yes.
The sequel we wanted to see is coming.

So this train boss dies and another demon shows up.

He gets to mortally wound "Rengoku" which is the man that acts like he wasn't fed for a week and was not socialised enough to be silently eating on a train.

Kamado sobs for the whole episode like his mother died (again), just after just meeting this man. I don't buy it. They spend so little time together and then in the final moment, when the demon flees, Kamado tries to act tough even though he would get steamrolled if there was a sudden solar eclipse.

Agatsuma gets one fight scene and gets no character development. Inosuke is great but the eye trick against the train demon is impossible to believe.

How drunk were the writers?

Oh man what an emotional episode, Rengoku's death will make everyone stronger!

Methinks I'll skip the movie if these 7 episodes made it all even more comprehensible and full.

To think they made a longer of the Train Arc. If I were asked what I would prefer, I would stick to the movie instead of watching this. It would've been better if they could've just animated the rest of the materials instead of concerning themselves again in this arc since they already made a movie out of it.

Anyway, I'm still glad to see this series.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I guess the TV version of Mugen Train wasn't too different. Based off my memory, the only thing that seemed new was the first episode. But it's been a while since I've seen the movie. So, I can't say for sure. Either way, this was still really good. The fight between Rengoku and Akaza was still great, and Rengoku's death was just as profound and sad as I remember it.

Still bawled. His death and Tanjiro's words always pull on my heartstrings.

Didn't mind watching this even though I watched the movie, which I also cried a lot.

One of the best animated and voiced scenes ever in anime. Any anime that leaves people in an emotional wreck is a masterpiece.

I remember watching this episode back then, and it didn't hit me at all. But after watching the last episode again, I got damaged in my heart. I also set the last picture where Rengoku and Tanjiro are on their knees.

By the way, I also found out that if you look at the "R" and "T" letters on your keyboard, it's like they sit in front of each other

That sucks. He was halfway from killing that upper demon.

Kyoujurou's mom is so beautiful!

What about Tanjirou's sword? did that demon took it with him? is he gonna give it back?

Hmm, it's like watching the movie twice only this time there's a few new scenes. I wish there were more! Since I liked the movie it's still a 9/10 for me.

I mean, it was pretty much just the movie. The movie is still fire, but better to sit through the movie IMO. The first episode was alright as it gives context to how Rengoku ended up on the Mugen Train(sadly leading to his passing), but that plot with the girl and the fast demon was pretty entertaining. ok first episode, stays high because the movie carries even if split up into 6 parts. OP is fire!!!!

I don't know how but I managed to tear up jus as much if not a bit more, Tanjirou's speech was amazing and I just can't get over the position Rengoku died in, I don't know how to explain it, but it shows that he was a Hashira. Akaza is still a brainless demon in the end. He ran away like an animal near its death, not being able to make words but only sounds. And after all that talk about humans being weak and what not.

I still wish the other Hashiras had a more emotional reaction given how, based on what the snake and sound Hashiras said, Rengoku was till very respected. He's probably my favorite character now, maybe after Giyuu. Now I'm waiting for the reactions from Rengoku's brother and father. This has to mean something for his father.

And now, Entertainment District arc comes. I wonder if it's just as good as the ending for Mugen Train.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!

Rengoku went out like a fucking boss and Akaza ran away like a little bitch. I'm going to miss rengoku as he was really likeable. Also tanjirou aint wrong did still complete his mission of keeping everyone safe and stopping the train. Dam this was emotional and that part with his ghost mom was sweet.

He died so fast ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€


also the way demon palm stuck inside his stomach and got hold seem illogical

Like he should ve remove the palm that was stuck way faster tbh

Then tanjirou & head boar so useless?? Like why last mins finally want to attack him

End up akaza got escaped he only can screaming and wailing ๐Ÿคก

I didnt tear up for rengoku death tbh

But when tanjirou inosuke talking it makes the mourning move ur heart

Guess im the type only tear when people give me their mourning words

death im acceptance person ๐Ÿคฃ

8/10 bcs lack of action demon EP

OP ED meh singing but the beat outro at first good give me desert pyramid feeling

But the song lyrics sound bad compare to S1 GOAT

very filling arc. guess they learnt their lesson and nerfed zeni. it was very enjoyable since zeni only had like 1 eps to complain compared to about every eps in the 1st season
this is where i stopped reading the manga, and for some strange reason, everything felt off, i prolly got it mixed up with another series but yeah, awesome arc nonetheless

ah rengoku, i was so hoping hed take that demon down with em, so close but yet so far

it seems the upper moons are far stronger than hashiras, but chose to just chillax. rengoku was only tired, not injured and couldnt hold a candle
