Sword of the Demon Hunter Anime Review: Is this better than Demon Slayer?

Imagine if we give Demon Slayer a Sannin theme where Nezuko is evil. So now Tanjiro doesn't have to cure her but stop her. Sounds pretty interesting right?

Well, something similar is going to happen in our new demon historical dark fantasy action anime named Sword of the Demon Hunter. It's one of the great anime that is going to air this season. And about which we are going to talk openly today. Because this is the anime that deserves more recognition and more viewers.

Starting with the most important point—its animation. Because you must have noticed that for some time now, bad animations are ruining even anime with good stories. So, it was very important for its animation to be on point, which it is. That is why, despite not getting the initial hype, it attracted a lot of viewers.

Although obviously, its animation is not at the level of Demon Slayer, but still the rawness in its animation is quite right. Like the way it has animated its fighting sequences, they are very smooth and raw.

Because of this, it will attract you and keep you, but what is required for you to stay connected with it? Yup, it's a story.

Story Overview

Where if I give you a little overview of its story by avoiding some major spoilers, then Jinta, whose sister is a half-demon, due to which his father beats him a lot. There is a history behind this, too, which I am not going into details about. But yes, due to all these tortures, one day, Jinta runs away with his sister from there. Because now the matter was getting over, and he could not see his sister traveling like this.

Due to this, Jinta and Suzune run away from home. Where now Jinta's life had only one sole purpose - to keep his sister happy, to protect her, at least for now.

Where then, a samurai named Motoharu, you can say, takes both of them with him to his home and adopts them.

And talking about Motoharu—so she was a Miko Guardian. Now, what is this, Miko? So basically, in their village, Kajuno, Itsuki-hi-me, or Miko was worshipped as a Fire Goddess. She was a priestess who prayed to the Fire God.

Because there was a belief that the prayers of Miko protect their village. And from whom? So obviously, it is a demon, and from other diseases, etc.

Because of this, apart from some top officials, no one else could meet Miko. So Motoharu was the guardian of this Miko, who was also Motoharu's wife.

Because of this, after her death, their daughter Shirayuki becomes the next Itsuki-hi-me. And Jinta, whom Motoharu himself was training, becomes the guardian of Shirayuki, our next Miko.

Where these people grow up like this. During this, many points come in between, which are also very important for this story. Like the development in Jinta and Suzune's relationship, the development and boundaries in Jinta and Shirayuki's relationship.

After all these things, finally comes that night, which turns the lives of the people of Kajuno village and Jinta's life upside down. And from that night onwards, our Jinta's journey as a demon hunter begins.

So what happened that night? Well, I am not telling you this. You will have to enjoy it yourself in episode one.

Because to hype this series, they have made its episode one of 1 hour. So go and enjoy this series yourself.
