Story preview
Episode 7 starts the episode with Nezuko transforming into a complete Demon. She grew a single horn from the right side of her forehead, and she had grown in size while having odd marks on a few parts of her body. After attacking Daki, Nezuko has started to show some concerning expressions on her face; she seemed to be enjoying what she was doing, from brutally crushing Daki’s limbs to burning her using the demon’s blood magic.
Realizing that Nezuko could never be the same again, Tanjiro pushed his body over the limits in order to save his little sister from the point of no return. After finally reaching her, he immediately stopped Nezuko from trying to attack one of the wounded residents; Nezuko couldn’t stop the temptation of blood at her current body state, though she did try to resist it.
Tanjiro got himself in an unfavorable position where he has to prevent Nezuko from harming anyone, defend himself from Daki, and protect the residents around him from being cut into little pieces. Fortunately, the sound Hashira came to the rescue and beheaded Daki in a very flashy way. But it was all a bait…
For some unknown reason, Daki didn’t die from the beheading. To make things even worse, a new Demon emerged from Daki. He healed all her wounds, and then we found out it was her brother. He seemed stronger than Daki, but he was also from the same rank. Perhaps their true strength is when they fight together.
The unstoppable Hashira has been wounded from this new Demon’s attack, things have gotten truly serious now. Will Inosuke and Zenitsu be able to help Uzui against this upper ranked Demon? Or will they stand helpless just like they did when the Flame Hashira fought Akaza?
