Perfection
The storytelling and animation are perfect! Every frame is a visual feast, blending breathtaking action sequences with emotional depth that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
The fight choreography is next-level-fluid, dynamic, and packed with intensity. The Infinity Castle itself is a stunning setting, with its ever-shifting, dreamlike architecture adding to the film's surreal and epic atmosphere.
Ufotable's signature blend of CGI and traditional animation creates a seamless, immersive experience.
This isn't just a movie; it's an emotional rollercoaster that leaves you breathless. An absolute must-watch-I'll be seeing it again as soon as possible!

Peak Visual and overflowing emotions
I was completely captivated by Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle. From the very first scene, it felt like stepping into a world that was darker, grander, and more intense than anything before. The animation was on another level-every frame felt alive, like a moving painting drenched in emotion and energy. The music hit all the right notes, pulling me deeper into every moment, and the atmosphere of the castle itself was haunting and unforgettable. There was this overwhelming sense of urgency, beauty, and chaos all at once. Even without spoiling anything, I can say this: it's the kind of arc that reminds you why you fell in love with anime in the first place.
It could have been 15/10 and not 8/10, there are many pacing issues, especially the fight with Akaza.
Let me be clear, I'm a huge anime fan and a staunch defender of KNY when it's been criticized that only the animation carries the story.
There are works that reach a point where they are so massive and important that they inevitably lead to many haters.
KNY is pure history, and UFOTABLE has exploited it extremely intelligently. "Mugen Train," besides being the studio's salvation, was the moment we all knew this franchise was serious business.
But nothing suggested the insanity of its end: 3 FILMS TO GO? Insane, an exaggeration. However, UFOTABLE once again earned $300 million in Japan alone, and now its worldwide premiere is to packed theaters.
Is everything perfect about this film? Well, no, and that's why I consider myself indebted. It should have been a 15/10, but it ends up being an 8/10. Let me explain.
This arc is meant to be seen as the series itself, not as a movie, so it's pretty obvious that we'll feel like there's something incomplete. So far, so good, we all know that.
What bothered me most about the movie is the pacing. We have very frenetic moments, like the beginning and the first two battles. But at the climax of the fight with Akaza, we have a 20-25 minute flashback! While it's faithful to the manga, it's inconceivable that they didn't realize how it affects the story's dynamic. I saw people yawning in the theater the whole time. In a 2 hour and 30 minute movie, I think it's a mistake.
Otherwise, it doesn't fail us in animation, nor in epicness. I think the Shinobu and Zenitsu fights are incredible. But here's another criticism: you don't feel the tension in either fight because we didn't have an elaborate build-up to these bonds over the seasons. It's very different from the dynamic with Akaza, whom we've hated since Rengoku's death.
It's clearly a success; I'm definitely going to see the other two films. I just sincerely hope I can walk out of the theater and say I saw the best movie of my life. That didn't happen with "Infinity Castle"...too bad.
