the thumbnail made tanjiro look like he became one of those bodybuilder types that have just his small head on top of a massive body

LMAO they changed the thumbnail, I thought they’d keep it for the memes but ig not

[DanjMax]

Tanjiro in the thumbnail be like:
"Bodybuilder Breathing: First Form - Road to Mr. Olympia"

[alvaroperez]

I was confused by the Swole Tanjiro in the Thumbnail.

Looks like they changed the thumbnail…

[arongan]

Muscle breathing: First form - WHEY PROTEIN SHAKE!

[leventhumps]

Tanjiro ain’t playing around no more. He’s been hitting the gym!

[JBrander]

Thumbnail:
Tanjiro the *Swole* Hashira

[cinnamonxbun]

[GoatAmv]

This arc is nothing but calm before storm 💀
And once it's over no one can stop 💯💀

[chicken]

Scary how we're almost at the final battle with Muzan and the remaining Upper Moons...

[JShel]

Tengen is so proud of Tanjiro, you can see it on his face.

[jxhxhkzhjz]

Finally going to see Shinobu, Giyu and Sanemi after 3 years

[GoatAmv]

This arc will end in the worst cliffhanger if i'm not wrong

[Len-hxhm]

Tanjiro: suddenly got buffed
Asta: Nah I'd win

[brettreese]

I love how Uzui looks at Tanjiro with pride!

[johnsai]

tanjiro started taking steroids, the demon slayer mark wasn't enough of a strength amplifier

edit: jjk vs demon slayer war is going on in the comments for some reason, don't bother joining the argument, it doesn't matter.

[SpookySquid]

I'm so happy Tengen's still gonna be around. I was worried when he said he was retiring.

[elikana]

0:58 Look at giyu having his backed turned sitting in the dark looking all dark and mysterious

[see.you.space.cowboy]

I'm happy to see Giyu again, as a manga reader I'm happy with his character arc.
