Ufotable restores faith with a top-tier animation in Demon Slayer season 3 episode 10

Demon Slayer season 3 episode 10 became one of the most awaited installments for the season due to centering on the battle between the Love Hashira, Mitsuri Kanroji, and the Upper Moon 4, Hantengu. Since the series premiere, the absence of Mitsuri has heavily bothered fans as she was one of the most important characters in the Swordsmith Village arc.

However, with the tenth episode, the entire Demon Slayer fandom is enthralled by how Mitsuri turned the tide of the fight by bringing elegance to the battlefield. Ufotable, the studio behind the series, is being lauded for intricately adapting the combat sequence from the original manga and highlighting the Love Hashira in the best way possible.

Although Yuma Takahashi, the anime producer of Demon Slayer, ensured fans that the sequel would be entering new levels of animation, the promise didn’t quite meet fans' expectations. Soon after the third episode, A Sword from Over 300 Years Ago, was released, fans stormed Twitter with dissatisfaction over the 3D CGI fish monster that soon became an internet meme mayhem.

Later, with the release of episode 4, Thank You, Tokito, the studio was again criticized for being unable to capture “Tanjiro’s confidence,” one of the most awaited moments that showed the protagonist with an unlikely arrogant expression. Since Tanjiro is known to be a jovial and kind-hearted person, the excitement among fans to see his insolent side get animated was imminent.

The poor adaptation and the extensive usage of 3D CGI indeed put Ufotable in a tight spot. However, Demon Slayer season 3 episode 10 has successfully recovered the standing for Ufotable, as the studio finally returned with its classic blend of 2D animation and 3D CGI that has caused the fans to thank the production house for making a grand comeback with its signature essence.

Devoted fans of Koyoharu Gotouge’s original manga knew how challenging it would be for Ufotable to animate Mitsuri’s whip-like nichirin blades with her intricate movements.

Nonetheless, the studio reclaimed its throne by delivering an impactful and exceptional adaptation, garnering a lot of praise from fans worldwide, immediately after Demon Slayer season 3 episode 10 aired.

With Demon Slayer season 3 episode 10, Love Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji, fans learned more about Mitsuri’s strongest feats, as her kindness and soft-spoken personality often overshadowed her position as a Pillar in the Corps. The Love Hashira is revealed to be stronger since she was a kid with a massive appetite.

It was hilarious to learn that Mitsuri could give adults a run for their money at a young age with her incredible strength. Mitsuri’s Nichirin blade is one of a kind, said to be forged personally by the legendary swordsmith Tecchin Tecchikawahara, the chief of the Swordsmith Village. Even for Hantengu, Mitsuri’s attacks were imperceptible.

Demon Slayer season 3 episode 10 has successfully put the entire fanbase on the edge of their seats. As the series' future looks promising, fans are assured that Ufotable will do justice to other characters like the Snake Hashira in the upcoming installments of Demon Slayer.
