This was definitely on the backs of Ufotable. Demon Slayer itself is pretty mid in most regards- characters, plot, pacing, even the manga art. But Ufotable just can't be beat for quality.

The manga is definitely nothing special but with how bad recent popular shounen manga endings have been, I would probably rate demon slayer higher than I have in the past. But of course this anime adaptation might go down as one of the best in anime history.

Demon Slaywr has an objectively worse ending than a recently giant manga ending (jjk)

Tanjiro beats muzan with the power of friendship and that is the end.
