Le texte et dialogues sont moins naturels dans ce tome j'ai l'impression. Même si ça m'a fait plaisir qu'on donne de la place à Giyu j'attendais ça depuis longtemps.

The battle ends! Whoo! It was a great ending and it had some great things happening with X. So happy for Tanjiro and that person, though I am very curious how and what, hopefully we will find out! I love that character so I am so happy for them. Plus, what does the mark mean that several of them got during various battles, will the Master be OK, loved seeing Tamayo, Hashira training and other training which was just brutal as if the Hashira don't want people to survive. Though I had a laugh how Tanjiro kept his spirits high.
Oh, and sorry to Giyu, I can only imagine how it was to endure endless talking Tanjiro for 4 days. XD

It was a filler book. The next arc might be the last one so I’m excited for that to start. The final battle with muzan is the next arc I’m pretty sure so that’s exciting

Holy shit, this volume was hilarious! I don't know what it is with Demon Slayer, but there are certain volumes where Gotouge goes all-out with the humor and it works! Tanjiro's interactions with Giyu were easily the funniest, but Inosuke and Zenitsu got in some great moments as well!
I'm so happy we get to see the other Hashiras in action, especially Iguro. I like his not-so-secret crush on Kanroji and would love to see his breathing in combat. His training was awful, though, and it speaks to how little patience he has for failure or irritants. Kanroji was as wonderful as ever and I loved her trying to explain how she got her mark. She and Tanjiro how more in common than originally thought!
One thing I kind of want to address, though, is the story. For those of you not aware, the series ended this year and it will only be 23 volumes long. That means there are only 8 volumes left, making this is relatively short series considering its story. The issue that I think a lot of readers have, and one that I've noticed, is that plot points tend to come and go with little fanfare or things that seemed like they would be important later (such as the Blue Spider Lily) are just tossed to the wayside. Considering what the series has been up until this point, I feel like this is a more action/battle centric series that isn't as concerned about its story as long as it makes sense. The problem, though, is that being dismissive of plot points (or just abandoning them entirely) makes your story weaker and not as compelling. That being said, I still love the series and thoroughly enjoy it for what it is: an action packed, funny, heartfelt, and character-driven fantasy story. I won't say that people aren't right to be annoyed, they most certainly are, I just wanted to bring attention to this and offer my thoughts.
This was just an overall fun volume that I had a blast reading. Demon Slayer is easily one of my favorite series right now and I'm loving every volume I devour. Hopefully the next one comes soon, I want to learn more about the Stone Hashira!
