  • Genya is the kind of character I grew to love more and more during my time reading Kimetsu no Yaiba, he reminds me a lot of Okuyasu from Part 4 actually and when you discover he's just been playing the tough guy a lot of his character clicks. Hopefully this video helps you appreciate him just that little bit more.

    Honestly, it's true that the manga feels super rushed, specially by the end. However, I feel like the author did a completely outstanding job in making it still amazing even when it went by super fast. Every character had time to shine. Every character had memorable, emotional and badass moments. Yeah, I wish I lived in a world where the mangaka had the chance to tell the story she wanted to tell, but even when she didn't, Kimetsu is still one of the most amazing shonen mangas ever imo.

    • @savvivixen8490
      @savvivixen8490 Před 4 lety +70

      Sounds like some advice I received on freelancing (though it seems to apply to ALOT of things)...
      It's important to have at least 2 out of 3 traits, as having all three is extremely rare:
      Be FAST
      Be GOOD
      Be NICE
      Service jobs, products, team exercises, really interesting stuff it applies to.
      If you're fast, you make yourself more convenient to others for access. If you're super good at what you do, you're chosen over others for your quality of work. If you're nice, you're more likely to attract more people. Doing all 3 simultaneously is taxing and encourages burnout faster, though it may not be impossible for some.
      I just think it's cool that the concept encourages people to work with what assets are available to them instead of trying to fit into a perfect mold of what they're expected to be. You can be successful in life and your endeavors without sacrificing the core of who you are.

      Not only that, compared to the main character everything about him makes sense (other than somehow now being able to use breathing techniques and somehow eating a demon makes him a temporary demon or smth), his backstory may have been the usual tragic backstory, but it properly effects him later on, his attitude makes sense (tryna imitate his brother) even though he might be violent towards others it kinda makes sense, his goal is clear, and he is flawed.
      Compared to Tanjiro who is almost perfect to perfect, who for some reason can still sympathize for demons who have killed people in front of him and have harmed him and his sister, who wants to turn his sister to human which makes sense, but at the same time let’s her hide away rather than checking in on her every once in awhile to make sure she is okay.
      In the end Genya should have been the protagonist, and I wished he had more screen time, or atleast lasted to the final battle.
      In fact he and Tanjiro are the same when it comes to powers, Tanjiro has this ancient breathing technique that separates him from others, and Genya has an ability that can prove useful compared to using breaths at some points, and can overpower the demon if he is able to devour more of it, even an upperank, hence separating him from others
      So why is Tanjiro perceived strong while Genya is perceived to be more weak and isn’t given the chance to do so, in his fights against an upperank demon? I know the author wanted to kill him off for Sanemi to break down, but they should have explored his power more, in fact have it used in the final battle and be close to Muzans strength, THEN have him die.

    I actually have a little theory on how Genya is able to become a demon. Kokushibo said to Kaigaku(ch 145 pg 4) how there are those who are resistant to demon blood ,so like Genya sort of is on a safety net that is above water. the water being the demon side. so hes able to reach out and touch the water and have the properties of a demon but doesnt fall into becoming a real demon

      i wonder if like nezuko, genya could have resisted the sun, cause nezuko was able to resist it cause 1. she did not consume flesh nor blood of humans 2. she was fully in control and kept her memories and ego unlike most other demons and 3. she had a reason to keep going and live aside from selfishness, nezuko had tanjiro, zenitsu and inosuke and she wanted to keep living not because she was selfish but because she was selfless and wanted to protect her loved ones. this is what differentiates nezuko from other demons and what i belive to be the criteria to resist the sun and genya also fits all these catagories.
      and before u say she can resist the sun cause she has sun breathing blood or whatever she dont, yoriichi is only a family friend who taught the sword art, she aint related to him and she aint ever used sun breathing. neither tanjiro nor nezuko are fit to use sun breathing, tanjiro could only use it through great effort and struggles, they aint related to yorrichii.

      @@dyppityjoop5912 most likely this is true. I'm pretty sure we never see him directly fight in the sun (cause then he couldn't fight demons most likely lmao)
      But Genya is seen turning back to the human side each time he eats demons, even when he was dying his eye colors revert to normal meaning even when he eats Upper rank demons he should have turned back into a human after exhausting his internal blood supply.
      As the person above your comment stated it seems that Demon Eaters have a unique ability in that they can't fully become a demon through this process as you eat them instead of turning thru blood, as getting infected (by anything invasive) through your blood and stomach are two entirely different ways your body defuse things. Stuff in your bloodstream has an easier time effecting your WHOLE body whilst eating it usually brings it to where you store different junk and it gets stashed there. So most likely what they're doing is similar to how certain drugs effect your body (in this case because it's the most studied and used I'll make the case with Marijuana) if you eat it, it rushes to your stomach before getting stored in your fat cells, and also getting sent to certain parts of your brain to give you that 'tingly feeling of sensation' which results with less effecting your actual blood stream because it's hitting other parts of your body.

At best tanjirou is everyone's friend while everyone of the other 5 are not so close aside zenistu to inosuke.
      His brother was better overall and glad he survived barley seeing his family aside his dad as it's a better twist than genya living being set up as the main 5.
      Well tamayo did make him a demon so it wasn't anything bad so if he dies one die he should be fine but sad for uzaki who was justified in my eyes seeing what the dojo did to his love and father.

      Overall the 5 don't hang out much in story as we see next the brothel arc and train with just the main 3 while tanjirou and co more so talk to unohana I mean flower pillar than eye girl.
      Beat guess for when the cast of 5 senses can hang out is right before muzan slaughters everyone as they are all in one place but that would not make for a good cast of friends unless they extend the training scene to show it but by then we want the upper moon battles.
      Overall it's hard to find a good place as it's either recovering or training seperate for the 5.

I have NEVER had a character stick with me as much as he has after the manga finished a couple years ago. He has been in my thoughts RENT FREE ever since. He hasn't even made a major appearance yet*, but here I am with way too much offbrand merch of this mf. I am absolutely overjoyed for the Swordsmith Village arc in April. I've been anticipating my boy getting more screen time for a good while. I hope Gotouge has a say in the anime to an extent, because I'm really hoping she help to add more scenes of him and other underutilized characters later down the line. I don't think he was wasted, by any means, but we deserved more of him. He's a great character. He's also, by far (to me at least), the most unique character in the series. I also found he really is much more MC material than Tanjiro ever was. Really interesting to think about. He truly did deserve better both narratively and literally.

      Tons of Anime have prominent gun combat scenes. But the reason why the majority of battle shounens don't feature guns prominently as a method of combat is because the gun is too powerful in a fight. It can one-shot anyone instantly unless they have some sort of power to guard against that, so in a fight with a gun, the author is forced to give the characters some thick plot armor, or make the guns useless at hitting targets, both of which just take you out of the story. I mean, just look at Star Wars. I can count on one hand the amount of times a main character was actually shot by a blaster. Or for anime, look at JoJo. The only time a gun ever did anything in the entirety of JoJo were 3 fights in Part 5.

      Bl_ Rosé sorry I was late on this. He was raised that he was the best much like Bakugo and became extremely bitter once his knowingly “weak” brother at the time showed him up. He also still aspired to be the best which is why he became a demon unlike endeavor who was prioritizing his offspring to be the strongest.

      @@superblanco444 Endevour still wanted to be the strongest in any form and treated Todoroki as tool for that ideal(not as a son). Both essentially discarded their family to reach their goals. That's why I say they're so similar.

    This video was so good that I had to subscribe. It feels like you know how to write a script for a good video.

    I couldn’t wait to see more of this guy and I’m glad we did because he’s easily one of my favourite characters and I loved every scene and fight he was in.

    Genya is also really creative. Using the Nichirin metal to make bullets, and abiltity to maintain himself while consuming demon flesh. An honestly overlooked demon slayer.

    Y'know if Genya did have a breath technique. Though I guess can say his technique would be called Breath of the Gunpowder.
