Kimetsu no Yaiba Kizuna no Kiseki, Soshite Hashira Geiko e (2024)
How are people still confused?
So last year we had a theatrical release of the start of season 3 that had the last two episodes of season 2. Now we got trailers saying that the finale of the swordsmith arc and the start of the training arc would be combined for a theatrical release.
How the hell are you people still going to this with the assumption it will be an original movie like Mugen Train? Don't hate it because you acted like a moron. This is intended as an event for fans and to give ufotable the big bucks. Normally such obvious cash grabs would frustrate. But this is ufotable, which means I don't care, because they deserve all profits they can get.
As for the special itself, S3's finale can be a bit cheesy but is a visually gorgeous and very tense episode, and looks great on the big screen. The premiere of S4 thankfully has a fair bit of action early on, making the pacing of this work alright and not feel like only conclusion and setup. The setup we get is promising though. I'll be curious how long the training arc is, because frankly I could imagine it being short enough they could do it like the Mugen Train arc, but I haven't read the manga so I don't know. Overall it's an enjoyable package for fans of the series but don't be a moron and go see a movie without looking at literally any promotional materials for it.
Also I liked the new opening.
Kimetsu no Yaiba: Katanakaji no Sato-hen (2023)
If you're disappointed, you should've googled what this was prior.
They were completely upfront in saying that this was the last two episodes of Season 2 and the double length premiere of Season 3. If you are mad that this is that, blame it on your own ignorance.
Seeing that penultimate episode on the big screen alone is worth the price for me. The Season 3 premiere was a solid first episode, but I'm glad they included the last two to give some action, as S3E1 is largely a setup episode. Even if it'd be cool to have seen more of next season, it was cool to get the sneak peek. And the new opening was great.
This was a really fun experience, especially since I'd waited to watch the two final episodes of Season 2.
