I don't think what I'm going to say is a spoiler, but wait for someone to respond to my comment whether it's a spoiler or not. . . . . . . . . . . . . . The demons in the Demon Slayer universe are more similar to vampires, in the first episode, as you mentioned, Tanjiro's hands turn red from exposure to the cold, but if you notice after Nezuko transforms she has a paler skin tone and no It appears to be affected by the weather and we also have Tomioka's comment (the guy who kills demons) not to expose it to the sun.

Demon Slayer takes place in the Taisho period; this would be the early 1900s. Electrical companies arrived in Japan in the late 1800s, so it is conceivable that powerlines would already be around, even in more remote areas. Remember that Japan cut itself off from the rest of the world for a very long time, so many of their old traditions are still intact, even though we'll see some "modern" things coming into play.

This anime takes place in Japan during the Taisho era of Japan, which is 1912 to 1926, that’s why there are power lines and other things you’ll see in future episodes because the time period is only about 100 years in the past compared to now. Also the episodes have an ending bit like JJK juju stroll at the end of many episodes after the credits so keep an eye out for them.

The first episode is definitely captivating, but I feel like it loses it's grip on you over time. First episode is really serious compared to some of the later ones.

Demon Slayer does often have actual content after the ending song. Sometimes it's just a lighthearted skit called "Taisho secret", but other times it's actually just more of the real episode.

There are After Credits scenes for each episode. The only thing that can be considered a spoiler in the after credits is the title of the next episode given in the last two seconds, but those are often misleading. The after credits have what are called Taisho Era Secrets, and are basically Tanjiro giving commentary on the episode or giving background lore.

Demon Slayer takes place in the Taisho period, 1912 to 1926. During this time, the mountainous villages would still look old school while Tokyo at this time had cars and proper electricity. Many people get confused and even are on the newest season still thinking this is like the 1600's, so don't worry about not knowing but remember going forward

Yes this episode was brutal but it sets up the rest of the story really well. Giyu (the demon slayer) held back in that fight because he wanted to see how Tanjiro would react only to see Nezuko protect him. Nezuko is the oldest sister, Tanjiro is about a year older than her and the oldest of the 6. Not going to say much more on the first episode but there are post credits starting from the next episode similar to a Juju stroll and looking forward to the rewatch with you. (Edit:) The opening doesn't really have spoilers other than some future chatacters and villains that appear in the episodes up to 9 but if you want to be safe I'd say you can watch it from ep 9.

Demon Slayer along with JJK are the 2 most recent hits in the genre known as "battle shonen". Dragonball was the first modern "battle shonen" and all of the shows you had heard of before you started watching anime fall into that genre with the possible exception of Attack on Titan (which is kinda its own thing). The world's and premise vary quite a bit in battle shonen, but all tend to follow a young main character coming of age as they fight battles and go on a Journey/Adventure of some sort, and are often far darker than traditional western stories of this kind

@Dr.Mlieko

Technically the first battle shonen series in the modern sense of the world was Kinnikuman The series started as a superhero parody, but then began to incorporate elements of sports anime (especialy pro-wrestling), and thus introduced the majority of the tropes associated with the genera today

@flyingeagle3898

@@Dr.Mlieko Not sure if I really consider kinnukuman to be in the same genre as the others, partly cause its so focused on being a sports/ parody show, and also because it never reached anywhere close to the level of international success that Dragonball/Sailor Moon/Naruto/ AOT/ Demon Slayer did. Fist of the North Star seems closer in concept (though other than the opening theme might be even less known internationally than Kinnikuman), But Dragonball is still the first show that puts all the pieces together for the modern "Battle shonen"/ Adventure story that everyone else copied the general pattern of.

So happy you finally react to it! This anime's pilot is a crazy good episode. The writing of Demon Slayer is sometimes abrupt but the anime just beautified 100x the manga version. The OST is so beautiful emotional, the voice acting. People complain about demon slayer because the story is sometimes too straightforward and characters are averagely well written but something that makes everyone agree is that the execution of this anime is OUT OF THIS WOLRD. It's just a pure masterpiece of animation and just for that it worth the watch + while being straightforward the story is still good, enjoyable and captivating so you'll not get bored watching it. Your reaction reminded me some years ago when I was watching this episode for the first time after a hard week I've been through between disappointment and sickness. And fun fact I had been througg the same kind of weeks (and it didn't happen in a very long time) and now I re-go through this episode through your reaction.

I think it is important to undeerstand that for most people, demons still count as superstition. They _are_ real in the show, but this show is more or less set in the real world, and most people would say "bah, demons aren't real, they're fairy tales, or old stories" and even those that believe aren't like to run into any on a daily basis.

The anime takes place in Taishō Period (1912 - 1926).

The composer of the music is Yuki Kajiura, the same composer who did the music for Madoka Magica!

I think the time period is Japan between the two world wars - just cause you were asking about technology yet old school feel. Also, yeah a heavy start, but I personally think the show eventually gets to a vibe similar to that of JJK with the mix of tragic, action, and funny lol

“They got power cables?! I thought this was old school?” It still amazes me how quickly Japan industrialized. They actually did still have samurai and this traditional lifestyle at the same time as cowboys, pirates, and electricity.

Wow, I genuinely thought I would never see this series uploaded on this channel. Been waiting over a year for this! Hope you enjoy!

Real world historical context: The series is set in the Taisho era of Japan. Somewhere between 1912 and 1926. Japan had an interesting history of strict isolationism, so when western technologies came to Japan it came a lot more sudden than Europe's gradual development. So you get a lot of ancient Japanese culture, traditions, art and architecture contrasting seemingly anachronistic with 19th century western innovations. I don't know as much as I should about this, but it's a strange atmosphere that's actually historically accurate. Radio, for comparison, was invented in 1909. The lightbulb was invented 30 nearly years earlier than that again. There are people alive today that predate the Taisho era actually. Glad you're reacting to this. Ever since your Overlord comment about not caring about animation, I've wanted you to see this so you'd eat your words and become a sakuga snob like the rest of us weebs. ;-P Enjoy the ride!

Maybe because now you are emotionally connected to the characters that's why.

日本語字幕本当にありがとうございます！ あなたのリアクションが日本語でも読めてとても嬉しいです❤ でもコスト的に大変とおっしゃっていたので無理はしないでください

The exact time period of this show is never stated, but we can infer from a few clues we get early on that it takes place sometime around the mid to late 1910s, hence the power cables in the more urban areas.

7:12 the anime is set during the early Taisho era, so after 1912 but before 1926. So, round the end of the Edwardian era. Industrialisation was happening in Japan at the time after being isolated for 300 years and technology was rapidly advancing, but smaller towns were still pretty basic when it came to machinery or electricity even.

Luke, you need to get out of Overlord mode. Demon Slayer has plot twists…but the author does not go out of her way to hide information or gaslight. Demon Slayer will simply…with every backstory…for good guys and bad guys…destroy you emotionally.

There's a segment at the end of most episodes, but it's put right after the Ending that shows future characters, so it'll be hard to catch it without getting a bit spoiled. Maybe someone can provide you the isolated segments, but it'd probably be inconvenient to have to record your reaction separately.

12:48 You can see the exact moment when Luke realized the kind of story this is...

oh my god! i didn’t even notice you watched this! so excited to join you on your journey through this series! it’s such an amazing story, i think you’ll love it. also if you were curious, in (i believe, it’s been a while since i’ve watched it) the first two episodes and about half of the 3rd one, tanjirou is 13 and nezuko is 12. i don’t really remember the rest of the kids ages, but i believe rokuta, the youngest is between the ages 4 to 6. as far as i remember, tanjuro, their dad, had died a couple months to a year or two prior to the start of the series 👍

1:10 demon slayer had an interesting jump into mainstream success because it was actually under the radar until the anime released, it wasnt as popular initially as a manga as its art had much to be desired and the artstyle wasnt something people were use to either while the story was rather basic in terms of premise resulting in something most people was wondering how it managed to stay afloat yet once the anime release with Lisa’s vocals for the opening and ufotable delivering action sequences utilizing traditional ukiyo-e in 3D which is actually faithful to the manga turning its disadvantage into an advantage is when it all came together 4:39 as others have pointed out this is in the taisho era so quite frankly it’s roughly 100 years ago in the middle of the westernization of japan in the winter on a mountain where hes hiking up and down it, its very dangerous and tiresome in general like can you make a days trip carrying a large basket of coal filled to the brim up and down a mountain while while covered in multiple layers of cloth and fabrics for warmth 16:43 yeah its a bit of an odd thing but tanjiro has an extremely good sense of smell, its a plot point too 23:21 in a sense yes, it may not seem like it but tanjiro is partially blaming himself for not being there with them when they were massacred regardless of whether he couldve realistically done anything about it or not and his action can be taken as self serving to alleviate his guilt so what is being said to him does make sense and as you can see afterward hes actually trying to rile him up to see if he really does have the drive and ambition to go down a certain path

He gonna enjoy the journey 🗿

At the end are Taisho Era secrets. You can check them out. They are giving some Easter Eggs about characters.😆Great reaction.😃

God... the OST of demon slayer is just something else. I'm waiting for you to react to THIS episode. We all know which episode I mean

Demon Slayer has something that many anime hardly have anymore.There are many small moments with their wonderful music that have made this work so great.There are also more and more funny moments through the addition of other characters.

OMG! You finally reacted to demon slayer! Ive been waiting for this one!😍😍😍 Im with you for this journey! ✊🏻

finally after so long demon slayer is here❤

All this time I thought you had watched this show but I guess it was just the openings. You're in for a ride oh my god this anime goes hard.

you are in for a incredible ride dude demon slayer is god tier

So I can only say wow.😮 I've never watched you before and only clicked on the video because of Demonslayer, but god that was a really good video, you have a new subscriber. I hope to see more of these videos.

About damn time you started this. I watched you react to all of the openings, but always wondered when you were going to start actually watching the anime. I'm here to stay for your reaction to them.

Damn... watching the first episode after what happened recently hits different.

Watching this episode again. Kinda feels like what he's saying to tanjiro is what he wants to say to himself [SPOILER from training arc] he's saying that the weak cant save anyone being he cant save Sabito n his sister🤧

The colour shade on the first episode is still my favourite, by this point it feels like it was specifically made for it, and so it increases the feeling of nostalgia

“demon slayer character backstories are so boring” when 90% of then have the most traumatizing backstories

I recon you can probably watch the opening from episode 20 onward I believe? There's maybe a slight spoiler with some people that will be introduced around episode 21-22, but they'll be only visible after you've seen them if I recall correctly.

OMG so on saturdays we will have demon slayer + vinland saga, what an amazing period to be your follower Luke! So glad to follow your journey into animes world since this AOT OPs reaction ❤️

Most consistent anime.the pacing of this anime Is so good that you cant get bored. Simple story with beautiful animation. I'm sure you are gonna love it. Very Excited for this journey!!

Everyone loves Nezuko. First Fullmetal alchemist, now this, something about two siblings trying to get their humanity back just works so well as a story

7:00 It’s set in the Taisho era, which is early 1900’s.

Nezuko is my favorite character. And I know you probably recognize the opening since you have seen it before it was a song by LiSA and totally the OST is amazing. The pacing for the first episode definitely shows you the tone of how its going to be throughout the series. Enjoyed your reactions and looking forward to the next one!

Just for reference, the date is 1912 out in the boonies of Japan. It is all fairly realistic on the tech side, at this time Japanese communities and communities in general were much more tightly knit than modern communities largely because there was no real communication tech to let you socialize with people further away so you would spend that time socializing with those around you.

YESS I used to watch your vids during BTS days. And now im back here watching ur demon slayer series. Can't wait till u catch up to the latest seasons!! Hope u enjoy the journey dude! It's INSANNEEEE i tell u

In Japan there are eras based on the current reigning emperor, this is in the Taisho era which was between 1912 and 1926 so this is early 20th century. That's why there's a bit of a mix of old and new.

After so many openings you watched luke finally watching demon slayer😊❤

Omg bro I'm so happy and excited for you to see this incredible show.

You saying this is a messed up episode made me realised the amount of messed up anime I've watched. Cuz I considered this moderate 😂

Tanjiro has a super sniffer. He’s like a human bloodhound

YES It's finally here! Man, it's great to rewatch this along with you.And your reaction at 13:58 was basically all of us when we first watched it, I'm sure. It was my reaction alright. This show is easily among my top 5 favorite Anime ever, can't wait to see your reaction to the rest.

The time period is actually really interesting becasue it is set in the Taisho period, somewhere ebtween 1912 and 1926. It is really cool because that is pretty much Japans industrial revolution time after WWI. That is why you see most of the rural parts being still very traditional, but the cities and bigger towns start to have electricity and such.

Finally for over 4 years of waiting Luke to react to Demon slayer, it's finally here, glad Luke becomes the corps journey ❤

4 years? He started reacting to anime only 1 and a half years back and 4 years back it wasn't even a reaction channel it was a very small gaming channel.

Hey, in my opinion your the best anime reactor so far :) keep it up pls!!!!

I remember when this first came out and it was being hyped I was really put off by the opening scene's use of CG for the snowy setting - and didn't watch it... I finally watched it a couple of months after the second season had finished airing and binged through it. The first episode is rather darker than the rest of the show, sure it has dark and emotional moments but not to the level of the first episode... actually, thinking about it that is very debateable - I guess it's because the light-hearted/fast action tone of the series dilutes the later dark moments. But never mind that, it's a brilliant show and I look forward to your reactions. Don't miss the after credit shorts, they add a much needed touch of humour and additional details. I wonder how you'll watch the second series, as it was released in two formats... I'd personally recommend wholly episodic rather than 'film + surrounding episodes'; as even though the film came out first the episodic version adds a few new shots and fits reacting better.

him: how many brothers and sisters does he got? me: well just the one now. 🙁

Yes there are after credit scenes for all of the episodes with exception to the first episode.

After Attack on titen I'm honest...something was missing on this channel for me but now I'm back here :D I really just love your vibe and the fact that you feel the story there

Dude went through an emotional rollercoaster on episode 1, his heart won't survive this series XD
