Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Demon Slayer Season 1 (2019) is a series my daughter and I recently watched on Netflix (26 episodes). The storyline focuses on a family that lives on a mountain 🏔 just outside of town where everyone in the family plays a roll for their survival. The sons job is to walk into town, trade for supplies and bring them home for his family. One day he returns home and finds his entire family has been murdered by demons on the mountain. So begins his journey to become a demon slayer...aided by his sister turned demon herself and friends he encounters along the way. The gore in this was better than I anticipated and the creatures are portrayed awesome - Many unique demons with surprisingly cool powers. I loved the evolution of the main characters as well as the friends he meets and their display of powers. The animation is very good. My daughter loved the storyline and can't wait to watch the movie. The only annoying part is the persistent inner monologue, but what anime series doesn't have an abundance of that? I'd score this a 9-9.5/10 and strongly recommend this.
