Transcript
00:00I still remember. A typical morning. The usual faces. A day, like any other.
00:16You really don't have to go, you know? All this snow seems dangerous.
00:21Yes, but I want us to have a feast on New Year's. I should sell as much charcoal as I can.
00:30Come back as soon as you can, okay?
00:33Be careful out there.
00:36Nanjiro. I'll see you later.
00:45Our lives weren't easy. But I was happy.
00:51Mother, Takeo, Shiguro, Hanako, Rokta, and Nezuko.
01:00I thought it was just going to be an ordinary morning. I didn't know how wrong I'd be.
01:09I was on my way home from selling charcoal. But before I could get very far, Mr. Saburo called out to me.
01:28Hang on, Tanjiro! You're not going back up the mountain now, are you? It's too dangerous.
01:40Before the demons show up.
01:49There's always been man-eating demons prowling about after dark.
01:53That's why it's not safe to go outside at night.
01:58These demons, they're not able to come inside people's houses, are they?
02:02Yes. They could come in.
02:07But...then...wouldn't they just eat everyone?
02:11That's why the demon slayers protect us by killing as many as they can. They always have.
02:17I stayed the night at Mr. Saburo's place. But...to this day...I can't help but think...what if...Mr. Saburo hadn't stopped me that night?
02:37That night...what...would've happened to me?
02:51As I reached home...I noticed...a sinister scent.
02:59It was strong...terrible...the smell of blood.
03:07It's hard to feel so dark.
03:10I've never had that night.
03:12I've never had that night.
03:13Nezuko! Rokta!
03:15What happened? What's going on here?
03:19Mom...Hanako...Takeyo...Shiguro...
03:23Mom...Hanako...Takeyo...Shiguro...
03:27Mom...Hanako...Takeyo...Shiguro...
03:31Takeo... Shigeru...
03:40Nesuko's the only one who's still warm!
03:43If I can get her to a doctor, she might live!
03:47No matter what it takes...
03:50Your big brother will save you!
03:53Everyone I love is dead...
04:04Except for Nesuko...
04:06The only survivor...
04:10But... Nesuko...
04:13She wasn't the Nesuko I knew anymore...
04:18She had become a demon...
04:23Nesuko was a demon...
04:34Before I could come to grips with what had happened...
04:38A swordsman appeared in front of me...
04:42He was there...
04:44To slay Nesuko...
04:47So...
04:49I did the only thing I could...
04:52I'm begging you...
05:01Whatever you do...
05:03Please...
05:05Don't kill my little sister...
05:07Never give someone else the right to decide who lives and dies!
05:12All you're doing is making yourself vulnerable!
05:14If it were even a little bit effective...
05:16Your family would still be alive right now!
05:20How can a weakling like you...
05:22Have any hope of finding a way to heal his sister?
05:24Let alone hunt down a demon!
05:26Don't make me laugh!
05:28Don't make me laugh!
05:30The weak have no rights!
05:32They don't get to make choices!
05:33All they can do is be relentlessly crushed by the straw!
05:37I needed to protect Nesuko...
05:44Even if it meant fighting off this swordsman!
05:48There was no way an amateur like me could win against him...
05:54But luckily...
05:56It didn't come to that...
05:58He was even kind enough to give me advice...
06:02He pointed me down the right path...
06:05And told me where I should turn next...
06:08The kid fell to his knees...
06:20Cried and begged...
06:22Just so he could protect his little sister...
06:25Turned demon...
06:26So I put him in his place...
06:29How naive and foolish he was...
06:32To cling to his enemy...
06:34The very opposite of what he should have been doing...
06:37It was disgraceful...
06:42Once I caught his sister...
06:44And pointed my blade at her...
06:46The boy...
06:47Grabbed his hatchet...
06:48And rushed towards me...
06:56You let your emotion drive you to charge at me...
06:59You're a fool!
07:07What happened to the hatchet?
07:09What happened to the hatchet?
07:17His plan was to bring me down...
07:19After I knocked him out...
07:21This kid...
07:22He's quick on his feet...
07:32In such a short time...
07:34He came up with a strategy...
07:36To defeat someone stronger than him...
07:38And once he had his plan...
07:41He didn't waste any time...
07:43Putting it into action...
07:44Huh...
07:45That...
07:46Was unusual...
07:47Huh...
07:48That...
07:49Was...
07:50Unusual...
07:52After seeing the kid faint...
08:03His sister...
08:04Began to struggle...
08:06She jumped on top of him...
08:09As he lay on the ground...
08:11Like a predator...
08:13Devouring its prey...
08:16But...
08:23Dammit...
08:24She'll kill him!
08:31This girl's been badly wounded...
08:33She's using up a lot of energy...
08:35To heal herself...
08:38Her strength must have been drained during her transformation...
08:42So there's no question...
08:43She's starving right now...
08:46She must have been craving a feast...
08:49Right from the start...
08:53But instead she protected her brother...
08:55And stood against me...
08:59I wonder...
09:01If just maybe...
09:02These two are different...
09:09And as it turns out...
09:11They were different...
09:13So...
09:14I decided to trust the brother's determination...
09:19And give his sister's will...
09:22A chance...
09:23When Orokodaki's training started...
09:34I climbed up and down the mountain...
09:36Swinging my sword countless times...
09:40I had to find a way to help Nezuko...
09:42And did whatever I needed to do...
09:44To become a Demon Slayer swordsman...
09:46I trained every day...
09:47I trained every day...
09:48And then...
09:49One year later...
09:52That's it...
09:56I've taught you all I can...
09:57The rest...
09:58Is up to you...
09:59You must prove to me...
10:00That you are capable of advancing to the next level...
10:01If you can cut this boulder in two...
10:03I'll allow you to enter final selection...
10:05After that day...
10:06That was it...
10:07He never taught me anything again...
10:09From then on...
10:10I spent every day practicing what I learned from Orokodaki...
10:13But...
10:14Even after six more months...
10:15I couldn't cut through the boulder...
10:16Am I...
10:17Not good enough?
10:18I'm about to give up...
10:20It's impossible...
10:21Silence!
10:22It's unsafe...
10:23I've been so close...
10:24It's like...
10:25A day...
10:26I've seen stories...
10:27... around here...
10:28I need to be a weapon...
10:29To be aasseness...
10:30Of course...
10:31So...
10:32You're right...
10:33And your words...
10:34To be a soldier...
10:35To be a soldier...
10:36You're right...
10:37To be a soldier...
10:38To be a soldier...
10:39Got a soldier...
10:40Did you really want this...
10:41To be a soldier?
10:42To be a soldier?
10:43To be a soldier...
10:44This is a soldier...
10:45And yourbros...
10:46It's unseemly to whine, so knock it off.
10:51A demon slayer bears his suffering in silence.
10:54Isn't that what you want to be?
10:56Well, you better start acting like it.
11:02There was no way I could cut the boulder.
11:05I was starting to get impatient and frustrated,
11:08when suddenly this boy appeared before me.
11:12His name was Sabitone.
11:15He had a mysterious aura about him.
11:26As I tried to overcome my frustration from not being able to cut through the rock,
11:30a boy with a mask appeared.
11:32His name was Sabitone.
11:35And there was a girl standing beside him, Makomo.
11:40Sabitone acted as my sparring partner.
11:44While Makomo watched my movements and gave me advice on how to improve my form.
11:49Some days, it was hard to tell if I was improving at all.
11:54But bit by bit, I could feel myself growing stronger.
11:57All of it has to be hammered into your flesh.
12:07More!
12:08More!
12:10You have to make sure.
12:12You never forget anything Orokodaki taught you!
12:17Powered into the marrow of your bones!
12:19With total concentration breathing, your blood circulation accelerates.
12:29Because your heart rate is faster than normal.
12:32None of that makes sense.
12:34How am I supposed to learn how to do that?
12:38Train until it kills you.
12:40Because really, when you get down to it,
12:42there's nothing else you can do.
12:44Day after day,
12:50I fought with Sabitone in front of the giant rock,
12:54while Makomo continued to give me advice.
12:57So I trained,
12:59till my arms and legs wanted to fall off,
13:02till my lungs and heart felt like they were going to burst.
13:04I swung my sword.
13:09But still,
13:11Sabitone kept beating me.
13:14Until six months later.
13:16Illuminated by firelight,
13:36a spiritual dance begins.
13:38Within the blaze burns a courage tempered by battle.
13:49In this conflagration,
13:52bonds between warriors are forged.
13:56They crystallize together into the pillars of today.
14:03Pillars with the strength to slay demons.
14:06Even so,
14:15the fires of conflict rage on.
14:18Demons against humans.
14:24Within the blaze,
14:26burns a courage tempered by battle.
14:30Within the blaze.
14:32Burns a young man's determination.
14:50Too slow.
14:51Sabitone's movements are so calculated.
15:01If I don't focus,
15:02he'll just keep deflecting.
15:03Tanjiro Kamado,
15:12you were once so pitiful,
15:17but look at you now.
15:18You finally learned proper breathing techniques.
15:23You've swung your sword thousands of times,
15:27even as your arms were screaming in pain.
15:33No matter how many times I knocked you down,
15:36you got back up and challenged me again.
15:38That shows true strength.
15:43The fact that I am facing you with a real sword this time proves it.
15:48We finish this tonight.
15:51Summon every ounce of determination you can muster.
15:55I won't be holding back.
15:57Neither should you.
15:58Now come!
16:07Too slow!
16:16You lack resolve.
16:19Remember what Urokodaki taught you.
16:23Move your legs.
16:25Don't stop now.
16:26If you call yourself a man,
16:28then do it.
16:29Unless you plan to lie down and die.
16:31There's nowhere else to go but forward.
16:34Now get up.
16:36Grab your sword and face me again.
16:38If you can cut this boulder in two,
16:41I'll allow you to enter final selection.
16:46The boulder...
16:49To cut it,
16:52I need to defeat Sabitone.
16:53But no matter how many times we fight...
17:01Why?
17:05Where did I go wrong?
17:07How did things turn out this way?
17:10I was just living my life day by day.
17:15Doing honest work with my family.
17:17We were poor.
17:21But we had a nice meal in town once in a while.
17:25We...
17:26We're so happy.
17:29Whenever happiness is destroyed,
17:32you'll find the smell of blood in the air.
17:37That awful day.
17:38The one night I didn't come home.
17:48My mother...
17:49My siblings...
17:51They all died.
17:53They were attacked by a demon.
17:55And that was it.
17:58It must have been painful.
18:00You suffered, didn't you?
18:02I'm sorry.
18:04I couldn't save you.
18:06I...
18:06I'm sorry.
18:08But you're suffering too,
18:17aren't you, Tanjiro?
18:20Get up.
18:21You don't need to suffer alone.
18:24I'm here too.
18:26Together,
18:27you and I can overcome this sadness.
18:31Don't you think?
18:33That's right.
18:37I can't forget
18:38that we still have each other.
18:42Nesuko.
18:46That night,
18:47your humanity was torn away from you.
18:50But you still managed to hold on
18:52to one important thing.
18:54Your own life.
18:57Sabito's right.
18:59Go forward.
19:03There's nowhere else to go.
19:07I'll find a way
19:08to make Nezuko human again.
19:11I'll avenge my whole family.
19:15I...
19:16made my decision
19:17when I picked up the sword.
19:19Now!
19:20Tanjiro!
19:24Finally,
19:25you've grown into a real man.
19:33If I gave up now,
19:34Nezuko would never go back to normal.
19:37Besides,
19:38Orokodaki has done so much for me.
19:41And I can't waste
19:42Makomo's training.
19:46Today's the day.
19:48I will defeat you!
19:52Let's go!
19:53It's time to finish this,
19:58Tanjiro!
20:03He's doing it.
20:04In that case.
20:08Total concentration!
20:11Water breathing!
20:12Fourth form!
20:14Striking time!
20:15Atai?
20:22Wait.
20:24No.
20:25Tanjiro is...
20:30There!
20:32The opening thread!
20:35Faster!
20:37Faster!
20:37Faster!
20:38Faster!
20:39Faster!
20:40Faster!
20:41Faster!
20:42Faster!
20:43Faster!
20:45Faster!
20:48Financial!
20:51Faster!
20:52Faster!
20:55Faster!
20:57Alice!
21:02终刑ец!
21:13Etenu!
21:14Keep winning, Tanjiro.
21:24You must defeat him.
21:44The boulder...
21:54Where are Sabito and Makomo?
22:00I didn't think you would actually do it.
22:04To be honest, I never had any intention of sending you to final selection.
22:22I couldn't bear to see any more children die.
22:26I was sure you wouldn't be able to cut through this boulder, but...
22:37Well done, my boy.
22:42Truly remarkable.
22:44I am proud, you know.
22:56I am proud of you.
23:04Make sure you come back alive from final selection.
23:10Your sister and I will be waiting for you.
23:14I am proud of you.
23:20Within the blaze burns a young man's determination.
23:24And with this in his heart...
23:29He walks the path of a demon slayer.
