**[00:00] ---**
Naho! Kiyo! Sumi!
**[00:05] ---**
I'd like you to help me train.
**[00:08] ---**
If I stop doing Total Concentration
Breathing while I'm asleep,
**[00:11] ---**
can you clobber me
with these carpet beaters?
**[00:14] ---**
Please help me!
**[00:17] ---**
Very well!
**[00:19] ---**
Thank you!
**[00:31] ---**
It's all good, right?
**[00:33] ---**
Master Tanjiro's doing a good job!
**[00:35] ---**
Yes!
**[02:11] ---**
EPISODE 25:
TSUGUKO, KANAO TSUYURI
**[02:17] ---**
Spineless fool...
**[02:19] ---**
Please let me try again!
**[02:21] ---**
Okay!
**[02:22] ---**
If you please!
**[02:23] ---**
Give it all you've got!
**[02:24] ---**
This time, for sure!
**[02:34] ---**
One more time please!
**[02:37] ---**
Just you again today, Tanjiro?
**[02:39] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[02:41] ---**
I did ask them to come, but...
**[02:43] ---**
Well, it doesn't matter to me.
**[02:45] ---**
I'll give them another nudge later!
**[02:55] ---**
*I'm starting to get used to training*
**[02:58] ---**
*while doing Total Concentration Breathing!*
**[03:01] ---**
*Although I can't sustain it all day
unless I really get myself pumped up,*
**[03:06] ---**
497! 498! 499! 500! 501!
**[03:06] ---**
*the longer that I can keep doing
Total Concentration Breathing,*
**[03:10] ---**
*the bigger the stamina boost I get!*
**[03:30] ---**
You can do it!
**[03:43] ---**
*Hey, I can chase after her!*
**[03:45] ---**
*I'm able to chase right after that girl!*
**[03:47] ---**
*I can keep up with her!*
**[04:01] ---**
Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch!
**[04:08] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[04:17] ---**
Zenitsu! Inosuke!
**[04:20] ---**
I refuse to get involved!
**[04:33] ---**
You can do it! You can do it!
You can do it!
**[04:45] ---**
It broke!
**[04:49] ---**
Now all you have to break
is this huge gourd!
**[04:52] ---**
Yeah!
**[04:53] ---**
I did it!
**[04:56] ---**
Thanks, all of you!
**[04:57] ---**
*Oh, crap.*
**[05:12] ---**
*So, Tanjiro's already gone off to train.*
**[05:16] ---**
*Jeez, it's the crack of dawn.*
**[05:19] ---**
*Putting in effort isn't my thing.*
**[05:22] ---**
*There's nothing more draining
than persevering every day.*
**[05:27] ---**
Oh, it's you.
**[05:29] ---**
Maybe getting left behind
by Tanjiro is making me panic,
**[05:32] ---**
but I can't get the hang of anything
even if he shows me for hours!
**[05:36] ---**
Now I realize that we're a total lost cause.
**[05:40] ---**
Wait, did you just say,
"Yes, you are"?
**[05:43] ---**
How can you be so cruel?
**[05:44] ---**
Would it kill you to say just once,
"You're working hard, too"?
**[05:50] ---**
Did you just say, "Work harder"?
**[05:53] ---**
I guess there's no way out of it.
**[05:55] ---**
MEDICINE
For Zenitsu Agatsuma
Take 5 times daily
7 days' worth
After each meal
**[06:03] ---**
Gross!
**[06:13] ---**
Come on, Monitsu.
**[06:16] ---**
What Tanjiro is trying to master is a skill
called "Total Concentration, Constant."
**[06:23] ---**
By continuing to do Total Concentration
Breathing every second of the day,
**[06:27] ---**
your basic stamina level will skyrocket.
**[06:35] ---**
Let's just go ahead and try it!
**[06:42] ---**
Impossible!
**[06:43] ---**
Seriously impossible!
**[06:46] ---**
I still can't sustain Total Concentration Breathing
all day unless I really throw myself into it,
**[06:51] ---**
but I bet you two can do it!
**[06:53] ---**
You go like this
to make your lungs expand!
**[06:56] ---**
When that rattles your blood, your bones and
muscles will go, "Boom! Boom!" You gotta stop it!
**[07:05] ---**
All that's left to do is train like crazy!
**[07:12] ---**
Now, now...
**[07:14] ---**
We're talking about a basic skill,
or should I say a beginner's skill,
**[07:17] ---**
so why wouldn't you be able to do it?
**[07:19] ---**
But it's also true that one must put
great effort into mastering it, right?
**[07:22] ---**
CALM STATE OF MIND
**[07:29] ---**
Well, why wouldn't you
be able to do it, though?
**[07:33] ---**
I was sure it would be
child's play for you, Inosuke.
**[07:36] ---**
Are you sure you can't do it?
**[07:38] ---**
Even though there's no reason
you can't do it?
**[07:40] ---**
It can't be helped, then,
if you can't do it.
**[07:43] ---**
Can't be helped! Can't be helped!
**[07:49] ---**
I can do it, all right! Why wouldn't I?
**[07:52] ---**
Don't mess with me,
or I swear I'll rip off your breasts!
**[07:57] ---**
Please give it your all, Zenitsu!
**[07:59] ---**
I'm your biggest cheerleader!
**[08:02] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[08:17] ---**
Kanao, you're in the same class,
so why don't you join them?
**[08:38] ---**
More! More! Boom! Boom! Boom!
**[08:41] ---**
You damn wimp!
**[08:44] ---**
You got this, Zenitsu!
**[09:22] ---**
*It hurts.*
**[09:24] ---**
*I'm hungry.*
**[09:27] ---**
*I'm sad.*
**[09:29] ---**
*I feel hopeless.*
**[09:32] ---**
*I'm in agony.*
**[09:34] ---**
*I'm lonely.*
**[09:37] ---**
*That was my life.*
**[09:42] ---**
*But then, one day,*
**[09:44] ---**
*I heard a sound like a snap.*
**[09:52] ---**
*And I never knew pain again.*
**[09:55] ---**
DEMON SLAYER:
KIMETSU NO YAIBA
**[09:59] ---**
DEMON SLAYER:
KIMETSU NO YAIBA
**[10:06] ---**
*I never knew pain again.*
**[10:09] ---**
*While living in poverty,*
**[10:11] ---**
*even when my parents sold me,*
**[10:14] ---**
*it didn't make me feel sad.*
**[10:20] ---**
*Excuse me, do you have a minute?*
**[10:28] ---**
*Could you tell us
why that child is all tied up?*
**[10:32] ---**
*Is she a criminal, perhaps?*
**[10:34] ---**
*Isn't it obvious?
She's flea-ridden, and her face is dirty.*
**[10:37] ---**
*Not to mention, she might try to escape.*
**[10:42] ---**
*Hello, there. Nice to meet you.*
**[10:45] ---**
*My name is Kanae Kocho.*
**[10:48] ---**
*What's your name?*
**[10:56] ---**
*She's got no name, all right?*
**[10:58] ---**
*Her parents never gave her one.*
**[11:00] ---**
*Happy now? Get away from her!*
**[11:05] ---**
*Please don't touch my sister.*
**[11:08] ---**
*What's your problem, you two?*
**[11:10] ---**
*If you wanna talk to this kid, pay up!*
**[11:15] ---**
*All right, then, we'll purchase her.*
**[11:17] ---**
*Would this be enough?*
**[11:28] ---**
*Hey! Come back here, dammit!*
**[11:30] ---**
*I'd pick it up right now if I were you!*
**[11:32] ---**
*After all, there's a crowd here,
and the wind is strong!*
**[11:36] ---**
*Are you sure about this?*
**[11:37] ---**
*It's fine!*
**[11:38] ---**
*Please excuse us!*
**[11:40] ---**
*Hands off! It's my property!*
**[11:43] ---**
*Oh my. Oh my.*
**[12:07] ---**
*Sister! Sister!*
**[12:09] ---**
*Sister, this child is hopeless!*
**[12:15] ---**
*She can't do anything without being told!
That goes for meals, as well!*
**[12:19] ---**
*She won't touch her food
unless I tell her to eat!*
**[12:21] ---**
*Even as her stomach growls and growls!*
**[12:24] ---**
*Oh my. Oh my.*
**[12:26] ---**
*What exactly are we going to do with her?*
**[12:28] ---**
*Now, now, don't be like that, okay?*
**[12:31] ---**
*I just love that smile of yours, Shinobu.*
**[12:35] ---**
*But we can't do anything with a kid who can't
even think for herself! It's dangerous!*
**[12:40] ---**
*Well, you do have a point, but...*
**[12:42] ---**
*She can't do anything on her own!
She can't decide for herself!*
**[12:46] ---**
*All right, when you're on your own,
you can decide by flipping this coin.*
**[12:50] ---**
*Right, Kanao?*
**[12:52] ---**
*Sister!*
**[12:54] ---**
*You don't have to take this
so seriously, you know...*
**[12:57] ---**
*since Kanao is so adorable!*
**[12:59] ---**
*That's not a good reason!*
**[13:01] ---**
*As long as it's given a chance,*
**[13:03] ---**
*a person's soul will open up,
so don't worry.*
**[13:06] ---**
*When you fall in love
with some boy someday,*
**[13:08] ---**
*you'll change, too, Kanao.*
**[13:15] ---**
You're doing great! Keep it up!
**[13:18] ---**
Right now! Harder! Bam!
That's it! You can do it, Zenitsu!
**[13:22] ---**
You've got this! Looking good!
**[13:37] ---**
Inosuke! Inosuke!
**[13:39] ---**
They'll be bringing
our reforged Nichirin Swords soon!
**[13:42] ---**
For real?
**[13:43] ---**
Yeah! I just heard it from the crow!
**[13:47] ---**
That's Mr. Haganezuka's scent!
**[13:49] ---**
Yahoo!
**[13:51] ---**
Let's go! Let's go!
**[13:53] ---**
Yahoo!
**[13:55] ---**
Mr. Haganezuka!
**[13:56] ---**
Hey! Hey! Mr. Haganezuka!
**[14:02] ---**
Long time no see!
**[14:07] ---**
How have you been?
**[14:14] ---**
M-Mr. Haganezuka?
**[14:16] ---**
How dare you snap my sword in two?
**[14:20] ---**
You've got a lot a nerve!
**[14:22] ---**
I'm sorry! B-But to be honest,
I came this close to being killed!
**[14:27] ---**
My opponent was insanely strong!
**[14:29] ---**
Not true! That has nothing to do with it!
**[14:31] ---**
You're the one to blame!
It's all your fault!
**[14:34] ---**
You're pitifully weak!
That's why it broke!
**[14:37] ---**
Otherwise, my sword
would never snap like that!
**[14:39] ---**
But...
**[14:41] ---**
I'm going to kill you!
**[14:48] ---**
Is that a new training regimen?
**[14:50] ---**
Probably not.
**[14:55] ---**
Well, Mr. Haganezuka
is a very passionate man.
**[14:59] ---**
Yes.
**[15:00] ---**
He loves his swords more than anyone.
**[15:03] ---**
There's no one like him
even in the sword-forgers' homeland.
**[15:07] ---**
You're probably right.
**[15:11] ---**
My name is Kanamori.
**[15:14] ---**
I was the one who forged
Master Inosuke's swords.
**[15:17] ---**
I would be thrilled
if they prove useful in battle.
**[15:28] ---**
Beautiful, aren't they?
**[15:30] ---**
The dull sheen of that
indigo-gray hue is so cool.
**[15:33] ---**
It's a fine color for a sword.
**[15:35] ---**
I'm happy for you, Inosuke,
since your sword was chipped all over.
**[15:41] ---**
How do you like the grips?
**[15:43] ---**
The thing is, this is the first time
I've ever forged swords for a dual-wielder.
**[15:49] ---**
Master Inosuke?
**[16:05] ---**
Better.
**[16:07] ---**
I'll kill you, you miserable brat!
**[16:09] ---**
You bastard! Are you flaunting it?
**[16:10] ---**
We're sorry! We're sorry!
**[16:16] ---**
Bastard! That's it! You're a dead man!
**[16:22] ---**
Unbelievable! He's unbelievable!
**[16:22] ---**
We're sorry!
**[16:24] ---**
We're sorry!
**[16:25] ---**
Taking a stone to those swords?
Unbelievable!
**[16:26] ---**
We're sorry! We're sorry!
**[16:28] ---**
We're sorry!
**[16:37] ---**
Looks like he'll be fine.
**[16:39] ---**
After all, Master Tanjiro
was really giving it his all!
**[16:41] ---**
Let's make him some rice balls again!
**[16:44] ---**
Yeah!
**[16:55] ---**
*My body's changed!*
**[16:57] ---**
*I can't wait to swing my sword!*
**[16:59] ---**
*With these hands!*
**[17:00] ---**
*My Nichirin Sword!*
**[17:05] ---**
*I did it!*
**[17:10] ---**
Good move! You can do it!
**[17:14] ---**
*Don't let up for a second! You can do it!*
**[17:20] ---**
*I did it!*
**[17:22] ---**
*Go!*
**[17:24] ---**
SENSE OF REASON
**[17:24] ---**
TAN
**[17:24] ---**
*This medicated water stinks.
It would be cruel to splash her with it.*
**[17:33] ---**
- He won!
- Does that count as winning?
**[17:35] ---**
Either way, it's the same thing!
**[17:37] ---**
Yeah! I did it!
**[17:41] ---**
I did it!
**[17:41] ---**
- Oh, crap.
- Oh, crap.
**[17:54] ---**
All right! Open up!
**[17:58] ---**
Okay! Looks like your jaw
is as good as new.
**[18:01] ---**
All right, you can close your mouth now.
**[18:04] ---**
That concludes this exam.
**[18:06] ---**
Since you're physically sound now,
**[18:08] ---**
you may take on your missions
without any misgivings.
**[18:11] ---**
So, I'm done with my training?
**[18:13] ---**
Yes. All that's left for you now
is actual combat.
**[18:16] ---**
Right!
**[18:17] ---**
Oh, before I forget, Lady Shinobu...
**[18:19] ---**
There's something I wanted to ask you.
**[18:22] ---**
What would that be?
**[18:23] ---**
Have you ever heard
of the Hinokami Kagura Dance?
**[18:26] ---**
I have not.
**[18:28] ---**
Uh, w-well then,
**[18:30] ---**
how about Fire Breathing?
**[18:32] ---**
Never heard of it.
**[18:35] ---**
A-Actually, this is something
that happened during my childhood.
**[18:39] ---**
Yes, yes.
**[18:42] ---**
I see.
**[18:44] ---**
So, for some reason, Tanjiro,
your father used Fire Breathing.
**[18:48] ---**
All I can tell you is that
while Flame Breathing does exist,
**[18:52] ---**
it's not Fire Breathing.
**[18:55] ---**
What? They're not the same thing?
**[18:57] ---**
I'm not familiar with the details myself.
**[19:00] ---**
Please forgive me.
**[19:01] ---**
But I do know that they're very strict
about the exact phrasing.
**[19:06] ---**
"Flame Breathing" must never
be referred to as "Fire Breathing."
**[19:09] ---**
The Flame Hashira, Rengoku,
might know something about this,
**[19:13] ---**
but unfortunately, he's out on a mission.
**[19:17] ---**
Understood!
**[19:18] ---**
Thank you for all that you've taught me.
**[19:21] ---**
I'll ask Mr. Rengoku if I ever get
a chance to see him again.
**[19:24] ---**
Right.
**[19:25] ---**
Now then, please excuse me!
**[19:27] ---**
Kamado?
**[19:28] ---**
Yes?
**[19:31] ---**
I'm expecting great things of you.
**[19:35] ---**
Right!
**[19:53] ---**
She's asleep all day again today.
**[19:59] ---**
I know they said you could be sleeping
to recover your stamina,
**[20:04] ---**
but it does worry me if you don't open
your eyes once in a while.
**[20:14] ---**
Hey, I'll probably be leaving this place
soon to go on my next mission.
**[20:19] ---**
I've healed physically,
and I've gotten a little stronger, too.
**[20:22] ---**
And I'm still doing
Total Concentration, Constant right now.
**[20:26] ---**
I think Zenitsu and Inosuke
will be with me, too.
**[20:30] ---**
Having those two by my side
gives me confidence.
**[20:35] ---**
I see.
**[20:37] ---**
You think so, too, Nezuko?
**[20:39] ---**
They're both good guys.
**[20:42] ---**
To turn you back into a human,
**[20:44] ---**
I gotta bring down
the strongest demons that I can,
**[20:46] ---**
and send Miss Tamayo
their blood samples.
**[20:50] ---**
*Am I capable of doing that?*
**[20:53] ---**
*I know you can do it, Big Brother.*
**[21:04] ---**
Thanks, Nezuko.
You just encouraged me, didn't you?
**[21:08] ---**
I'll try my hardest, all right?
**[23:01] ---**
PREVIEW
**[23:03] ---**
Maintaining Total Concentration
Breathing is way too demanding!
**[23:05] ---**
It's totally not happening, dammit.
**[23:08] ---**
You both look wiped out.
**[23:10] ---**
I know!
**[23:11] ---**
Here's a Taisho secret for you!
**[23:14] ---**
The medicated water we use
for reflex training, when added to your bath,
**[23:17] ---**
is actually great for healing
exhaustion and wounds.
**[23:21] ---**
Well, I'm going off to train,
but maybe you two should take a break.
**[23:24] ---**
I'm nowhere near done yet!
Don't underestimate me!
**[23:26] ---**
We'll train some more?
**[23:28] ---**
All right! All we gotta do
is show up, right?
**[23:31] ---**
Next, Episode 26, "New Mission."
**[23:34] ---**
Okay, I'm heading out now, Nezuko!
**[23:37] ---**
TO BE CONTINUED
