The experience was... okay? There was nothing spectacular or particularly horrible about it. It was a surprising moment or two, but that was pretty much it.

It all moves at a reasonable pace, and the fights and such are brutal enough but also pretty flashy. Characters were also enjoyable, especially the dynamic between siblings.

Looking forward to the next one.

There were also a few spelling errors; Tanjiro’s name was consistently spelled as Tanjirou in the last few chapters, but I put it down to translation issues.It all moves at a reasonable pace, and the fights and such are brutal enough but also pretty flashy.
