Fans of Demon Slayer are eagerly anticipating the release of the Infinity Castle trilogy of films after the conclusion of season 4. In the meantime, they have taken to rewatching and analyzing older episodes, recognizing and appreciating the elements that made the series a success.
During the final encounter between Kibutsuji Muzan and Kagaya Ubuyashiki, a crucial event took place. This moment was pivotal in the story as the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps made the ultimate sacrifice. As well as initiating a full-scale battle, it also exposed his true character in his last breath.
Fans have praised Koyoharu Gotouge for their perfect execution of the final meeting in their writing. The intricate attention to detail in the exchange between Kagaya, Amane, and Muzan showcased Gotouge’s brilliance according to fans.
Demon Slayer season 4: Subtle details in the Ubuyashiki-Muzan meeting that made the scene realistic
In the final meeting, Gotouge’s skillful writing was evident through many elements. The slow pacing of Muzan as he approached Kagaya Ubuyashiki created a great deal of tension. The prolonged scene only heightened the suspense, but it was the subtle detail that truly made it feel realistic and added depth to the emotional impact left behind by his family’s sacrifice.
Despite initially being perceived as mere background noise, the presence of Muzan’s two children playing in the corner had a significant impact on the scene. It heightened the sense of impending doom as the audience saw the Demon King surrounded by his children and the leader. This detail added to the fear and tension felt in Muzan’s presence.
Despite the addition of children, the scene remained realistic as they were at an age where they could pick up on clues and comprehend their surroundings. As a result, it was highly likely that they were aware of Muzan’s identity and the sensation of a demon’s presence. Ubuyashiki or Amane may have asked their children to play in a corner for two reasons.
One of the reasons why Muzan was easily deceived was due to his tendency to overlook the possibility of a trap when observing children playing. Despite his initial doubts, seeing the children of Ubuyashiki playing innocently in the corner would have reassured him. After all, it is not in a normal human being’s nature to sacrifice the lives of their own children. Additionally, the act of playing would have also aided in calming the children’s nerves, making them appear even more harmless to Muzan.
These two factors enhanced the scene, showcasing Koyoharu Gotouge’s meticulous attention to detail in creating a realistic atmosphere. This allows viewers to experience the fear and tension that fills the air throughout the episode. As demonstrated in the finale of Demon Slayer season 4, even the smallest elements can have a domino effect.
