The Best Demon Slayer Fights That Blew Our Minds

Demon Slayer doesn’t hold back. The animation is insane; the stakes are always through the roof, and the characters fight like their lives depend on it. Because, well, if we are honest in our analysis, their lives do depend on the fight. Let’s break down the fights that blew our minds, shall we?

Tanjiro and Nezuko vs. Rui

Rui’s concept of family was so disturbing. Just when it seemed like Tanjiro was done for, Nezuko showed up with her Exploding Blood attack, and suddenly everything was on fire, like literally on FIRE!!! That Hinokami Kagura scene has a pure chill vibe, huh? If you didn’t get goosebumps, check your pulse. You might be living in an illusion, you know.

Rengoku vs. Akaza

The Mugen Train arc was such an emotional devastation. Rengoku took on Akaza, and it was clear from the start that this wasn’t going to end with a victory lap. Every blow Rengoku landed felt personal, and even when things looked grim, the man stood his ground. The worst part was that he made it impossible not to root for him, even when we knew what was coming.

Tengen and the Trio vs. Gyutaro and Daki

The Entertainment District arc made everything explode. Tengen Uzui, Mr. Flashy himself, went toe-to-toe with Gyutaro and Daki, but this wasn’t just a one-man show. Tanjiro, Zenitsu, who sleeps fighting like a pro, and Inosuke bring their A-game. Limbs were flying, poison was dripping, and somehow Tengen still found time to be dramatic. What a classic fight, huh?

Tanjiro vs. Hantengu
