Kimetsu no Yaiba review

Everyone knows this manga now, thanks to the famous adaptation by ufotable. Most manga readers are pre-anime watchers who wanted to follow the story, as I am. And I must say; the manga is way superior to the anime, at least as of today. Written when the latest chapter was 197. Latest update as of chapter 200.

Story: It gets better than the anime, developing more characters and plot points. There's a great fight in a certain arc, and in others we see some secondary characters take action. And now, some thinking is required, instead of simple strength. Despite this, the final fight is extremely underwhelming and anticlimatic; it feels rushed with plenty of forced elements, little to zero strategy and no coherence overall.

Art: In my humble opinion, the manga has better art than the anime just because of consistency. The animated version focuses way too much in backgrounds and sceneries that the characters almost feel out of place. The manga, while keeping the great style, stays consistent instead.

Characters: The implementation of more characters and development of previously introduced ones it always a plus for me. Their backstories may fall into some stereotypes, but overall, it's a positive improvement from the first parts.

Overall enjoyment: Definitely better than the anime in most ways. The story peaked a while ago, but the current arc feels interesting despite the immense length. Lately, the quality has been decaying due to some asspulls, though.
