“I just can't shake the feeling that Oda genuinely has a complex about Demon Slayer.”

  • He was my favorite, so it was: "He's definitely going to die… this is going to hurt… maybe I should stop reading… still not dead… okay, surely now… wait, can he actually make it to the end? …or is this the setup where it comes out of nowhere? …it's not coming… IT'S JUST ENDING?" I was so fixated on whether Levi lived or died that the actual story took a back seat.

    お気に入りのキャラだったから、絶対死ぬだろうな…悲しいな…読むのやめようかな…まだ死なないな…そろそろかな…なんか最後まで行けそうかな？…とか油断させといて急に来るやつかな…来ないな…終わるんかい みたいなリヴァイの生死ばかり気になってストーリーそっちのけだった

  • Gotouge once wrote, 'Demon Slayer became this widely read because of all of you. You're welcome to go ahead and say you raised Demon Slayer yourselves!' That line stuck with me. The kindness, the humility — you can feel he's genuinely grateful to the readers. We're the ones who want to thank him. That's why I love the guy.

    吾峠先生はコメントで「ここまで読まれる作品になったのは皆さんのおかげです。自分が鬼滅を育てた！って言ってもいいです！」って書いてあったのが印象的でした。 文章から優しさというか謙虚さというか、本当に読者に感謝してくれてるんだなってのが伝わる。こっちが感謝したいのに。 だから好き。

  • ・Swings through the air on cables ・Senses danger on pure instinct ・Superhuman physical ability ・Turns out there's a bunch of them Ackerman = Spider-Man!?

    ・紐で空中を舞う ・直感で危険を察知 ・超人的身体能力 ・実はたくさん居る アッカーマン＝スパイダーマン！？

  • Demon Slayer and Attack on Titan played a part, sure, but in the end Oda became the hare in the tortoise and the hare. While he was being showered with 'you're No.1,' the people quietly putting in the work simply delivered the results.

    鬼滅とか進撃の巨人の影響もあるだろうけど結局のところ、尾田先生はウサギとカメのウサギになってしまった 自分が1番だとチヤホヤされている間にひたむきに努力していた人達が結果を出しただけ

Editor's note

Even after the ending, Japanese fans keep re-running the story's logic — the Levi thread here reframes his survival not as luck but as cold accounting: the brigade is worth one Levi.
