*Thank goodness Nezuko's asleep.*
**[00:14] ---**
*Hushabye...*
**[00:16] ---**
*Nezuko!*
**[00:17] ---**
*Stop it!*
**[00:18] ---**
*Baby bunny on the hill...*
**[00:22] ---**
*Tell me why your eyes are so very red...*
**[00:46] ---**
You sleep tight now.
**[00:59] ---**
*I can still fight.*
**[01:02] ---**
*I can still move.*
**[01:05] ---**
*This time...*
**[01:07] ---**
*I'm going to fight to the end!*
**[01:09] ---**
*To the very end!*

EPISODE 8:
GATHERING
**[02:48] ---**
Huh! This really pisses me off.
**[02:51] ---**
You're good-looking,
you have three wives,
**[02:54] ---**
and on top of that,
you're full of swagger.
**[02:59] ---**
You're different, aren't you?
**[03:02] ---**
You're not like any of the other Hashira
I have killed.
**[03:05] ---**
You must've been special
since the day you were born.
**[03:11] ---**
A chosen talent, right?
**[03:13] ---**
That makes me so jealous!
I need you to die as soon as possible!
**[03:20] ---**
Talent?
**[03:25] ---**
Do I look like someone with any talent?
**[03:29] ---**
If someone like me gives that impression,
you really are living a blessed life.
**[03:36] ---**
You may be centuries old, but if you've stayed
shut up inside a place like this...
**[03:40] ---**
I guess you can't help
being ignorant of the real world.
**[03:40] ---**
UPPER SIX
**[03:43] ---**
What do you know about it?
**[03:45] ---**
I know, all right.
**[03:47] ---**
But you have no clue, do you?
See, this country is vast.
**[03:52] ---**
It's teeming with people
who'd blow your mind.
**[03:54] ---**
Some are complete enigmas.
**[03:57] ---**
Some can take up a sword
and become a Hashira in two months.
**[04:01] ---**
DESTROYER
OF DEMONS
**[04:01] ---**
Me, chosen?
**[04:03] ---**
Don't give me that crap!
**[04:05] ---**
Just how many lives do you think
I've let slip through my fingers until now?
**[04:10] ---**
*That's right.*
**[04:12] ---**
*I can't be like Rengoku!*
**[04:18] ---**
Then how do you explain it?
**[04:20] ---**
UPPER SIX
**[04:20] ---**
My Blood Sickles
are drenched with deadly poison,
**[04:24] ---**
yet you simply refuse to die!
**[04:29] ---**
I come from a line of shinobi. I've become
resistant, so poison doesn't work on me.
**[04:34] ---**
The shinobi were wiped out
back during the Edo Period!
**[04:37] ---**
Don't give us that crap!
**[04:39] ---**
That's no lie.
**[04:42] ---**
*The shinobi exist.*
**[04:44] ---**
*I had nine brothers and sisters.*
**[04:46] ---**
*Seven of them died
by the time I turned 15.*
**[04:49] ---**
*Panicked by our clan's decline,*
**[04:52] ---**
*my father, just like a man possessed,
forced us to submit to brutal training,*
**[04:57] ---**
*and the only survivors were myself
and my brother, who was two years younger.*
**[05:02] ---**
*My brother was exactly like my father.*
**[05:05] ---**
*The same mindset,
the same mannerisms as my father...*
**[05:08] ---**
*His subordinates were pawns.*
**[05:09] ---**
*His wives were expendable
so long as they produced heirs.*
**[05:12] ---**
*No one else ever had any say.*
**[05:15] ---**
*Resolutely indifferent.*
**[05:18] ---**
*And I...*
**[05:20] ---**
*didn't want to become like him!*
**[05:25] ---**
*It's hard, isn't it, Tengen?*
**[05:28] ---**
*The path you have chosen.*
**[05:34] ---**
*Rejecting the values that shape you,
that were instilled in you during your childhood,*
**[05:40] ---**
*even as you place yourself on the battlefield...
That's surely agonizing.*
**[05:45] ---**
*Carrying all that conflict
and quandaries inside yourself...*
**[05:49] ---**
*You still...*
**[05:51] ---**
*All of you still persist in moving forward
and battling on. Isn't that right?*
**[05:56] ---**
*So that you can protect
other people's lives.*
**[06:04] ---**
*Thank you.*
**[06:05] ---**
*You're a remarkable child.*
**[06:11] ---**
*I'm the one who should be grateful.*
**[06:15] ---**
*Master, for your sake, I'd never think twice
about laying down my life.*
**[06:19] ---**
*I can surely accomplish everything.*
**[06:22] ---**
*Those who have baggage like conflict
or quandaries are spineless fools.*
**[06:25] ---**
*That's always been the story of my life.*
**[06:29] ---**
Huh?
**[06:30] ---**
Huh?
**[06:32] ---**
Huh?
**[06:38] ---**
What the hell are you laughing about?
**[06:41] ---**
The poison's affecting you, after all!
Slowly but surely!
**[06:46] ---**
Claiming it didn't work on you was just bravado!
Pretty humiliating, huh?
**[06:55] ---**
Oh no! It has absolutely no effect on me!
**[06:58] ---**
Wanna see me dance?
**[07:00] ---**
I'm so on fire, I could eat 100 bowls
of tempura udon!
**[07:03] ---**
In a flashy way, that is!
**[07:14] ---**
Don't you dare kick my little sister!
**[07:17] ---**
You scumbag!
**[07:26] ---**
*Well, those are unique explosions.*
**[07:29] ---**
*They can inflict damage on a demon's body*
**[07:31] ---**
*and explode with the slightest friction
from a strike.*
**[07:34] ---**
*She got hit because she slashed one
without realizing that.*
**[07:38] ---**
*She's always taking a hit, that one!*
**[07:45] ---**
*The blade is extend—*
**[07:49] ---**
*He's holding onto the tip of his sword!*
**[07:51] ---**
*What kind of insane grip does he have?*
**[07:53] ---**
*Go!*
**[08:01] ---**
Damn, I botched the chance
to finish off this one!
**[08:05] ---**
He beheaded me again!
**[08:08] ---**
Damn you! Damn you!
**[08:10] ---**
I'll make you pay for this!
**[08:12] ---**
Not fair! Not fair! Why am I the one
who's always getting beheaded?
**[08:22] ---**
Hold on. You're onto us, aren't you?
**[08:26] ---**
About what?
**[08:28] ---**
Not that finding out about us
will do you any good!
**[08:32] ---**
Since you're going to die
a slow and steady death, anyway!
**[08:36] ---**
Even as we speak, we're creeping
toward victory, aren't we?
**[08:43] ---**
I don't know about that!
**[08:46] ---**
Better not forget me!
**[08:48] ---**
Not only yours truly, Lord Inosuke,
but his minion is here, as well!
**[08:57] ---**
Who the hell are these guys?
**[09:11] ---**
Huh?
**[09:15] ---**
DESTROY
**[09:38] ---**
If you're wounded, come this way!
**[09:40] ---**
Everyone else, please flee from here!
**[09:53] ---**
Huh.
**[10:02] ---**
Hey, you guys...
**[10:03] ---**
Talk about flashy entrances!
**[10:06] ---**
That's what I like to see!
**[10:09] ---**
DEMON SLAYER: KIMETSU NO YAIBA
ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT ARC
**[10:13] ---**
DEMON SLAYER: KIMETSU NO YAIBA
ENTERTAINMENT DISTRICT ARC
**[10:21] ---**
You can summon
all the underlings you want...
**[10:24] ---**
but there'll still be no blissful future
waiting for you!
**[10:31] ---**
You're all going to die, anyway...
**[10:35] ---**
so stop staring
with those sparkling eyes!
**[10:39] ---**
*There are two demons now.*
**[10:41] ---**
*How did that happen?*
**[10:44] ---**
*Also, the Belt Demon isn't dead!*
**[10:47] ---**
*Are they both Upper Six?*
**[10:50] ---**
*Splintered off from each other?*
**[10:53] ---**
*If that's the case...*
**[10:55] ---**
*the main unit has to be this man!*
**[10:58] ---**
*His scent is different!*
**[11:01] ---**
*The weight of his scent!*
**[11:03] ---**
*It feels like the back
of my throat's gone numb!*
**[11:10] ---**
*My hands are shaking!*
**[11:11] ---**
*I wonder if it's from fatigue.*
**[11:14] ---**
*Or...*
**[11:15] ---**
*is it fear?*
**[11:17] ---**
*No!*
**[11:19] ---**
*Even so, I...*
**[11:21] ---**
*We...*
**[11:23] ---**
We're going to win!
**[11:24] ---**
Us the Demon Slayers!
**[11:26] ---**
No way can you win!
**[11:29] ---**
Not when the Hashira who's your only hope
is ravaged by poison!
**[11:33] ---**
Poison?
**[11:36] ---**
Oh, we're going to win easy,
you dumbass bottom-feeders!
**[11:38] ---**
I'm at the top of my game
when I'm shackled by poison in my system!
**[11:42] ---**
Oh, spare us your bravado!
**[11:44] ---**
Shut up! Don't you dare
underestimate humans!
**[11:47] ---**
All three of these boys
are my brilliant Tsuguko!
**[11:50] ---**
They have relentless grit!
**[11:53] ---**
Yeah, we do!
**[11:54] ---**
Even if their limbs fall off,
they won't let go!
**[11:57] ---**
And I've already identified
how to bring you down!
**[12:03] ---**
Beheading you at the same time!
**[12:05] ---**
Both of you at the same time!
Am I right?
**[12:16] ---**
Otherwise, there'd be no reason
to disperse your respective skills
**[12:19] ---**
rather than assimilating
your weak sister into yourself!
**[12:23] ---**
Easy-peasy, you two!
**[12:26] ---**
I see! It's that simple!
**[12:28] ---**
We've as good as won, huh?
**[12:31] ---**
All those Demon Slayers perished
because they couldn't do that simple thing.
**[12:37] ---**
Not even the Hashira!
**[12:39] ---**
Fifteen for me and seven for my sister.
**[12:42] ---**
That's how many we've devoured!
**[12:44] ---**
You heard him!
**[12:46] ---**
Not a single one lived to see daybreak!
**[12:51] ---**
Long nights are always on our side, after all.
**[12:56] ---**
Every last one of you, just die!
**[13:11] ---**
Zenitsu!
**[13:12] ---**
Leave that worm woman
to me and Sleepyhead!
**[13:16] ---**
You two go defeat that praying mantis!
**[13:18] ---**
Got that?
**[13:19] ---**
Watch your back!
**[13:20] ---**
Sure thing!
**[13:22] ---**
I won't let you kill my sister.
**[13:28] ---**
You! You're the one from...
**[13:32] ---**
I have something to say to you.
**[13:35] ---**
Apologize to the girl you hurt by pulling her ear.
**[13:39] ---**
Huh?
**[13:41] ---**
Even if it was your earnings...
**[13:43] ---**
that provided them with their basic needs,
**[13:47] ---**
that still doesn't make those girls your belongings.
**[13:50] ---**
You have no right to do whatever you want to them.
**[13:54] ---**
Don't bore me with your stupid lecture!
**[13:57] ---**
In what world does someone as ugly as you
get to speak to me as an equal?
**[14:03] ---**
In this city, women are merchandise.
**[14:06] ---**
The same as objects.
**[14:08] ---**
Getting sold, bought and destroyed.
**[14:11] ---**
The owner is free to do
with them as she chooses.
**[14:14] ---**
Ugly people have no right to eat any meals.
**[14:17] ---**
The inept shouldn't be treated as humans!
**[14:25] ---**
You shouldn't do the same horrible things
to others that were done to you.
**[14:28] ---**
You're wrong about that!
**[14:31] ---**
The horrible things done to us...
The things that made us suffer...
**[14:35] ---**
We do them back to others
and collect on those debts.
**[14:39] ---**
We can never make up for our own misfortune
unless we collect it from the blessed.
**[14:48] ---**
Because that's the way we live our lives!
**[14:51] ---**
SIX
**[14:53] ---**
We've killed off everyone who's ever leveled
false accusations at us, right?
**[15:00] ---**
We're going to slash your windpipes
just like we did to the others!
**[15:08] ---**
*Unbelievable bloodlust!*
**[15:09] ---**
*It's giving me the chills
from my elbows to my neck!*
**[15:13] ---**
*No wonder! You're up against
the Upper Six demon!*
**[15:16] ---**
*Get a hold of yourself!*
**[15:18] ---**
*Uzui's been poisoned!*
**[15:20] ---**
*I have to protect him!*
**[15:22] ---**
*Strike with your sword
the instant he moves!*
**[15:25] ---**
*The second he moves even an inch!*
**[15:27] ---**
*In that instant!*
**[15:29] ---**
*Swing it! Swing your sword!*
**[15:31] ---**
*Evade it! Evade it!*
**[15:33] ---**
*Bend backward! Bend—*
**[15:44] ---**
*What are you doing?*
**[15:46] ---**
*He protected you instead,
and now you're a hindrance!*
**[15:58] ---**
*Tons of Belts from up above!*
**[16:08] ---**
Huh? Three eyes?
**[16:11] ---**
I can see everything!
All of your movements!
**[16:15] ---**
Now that my brother's awake,
**[16:17] ---**
what you're seeing now
is my true power!
**[16:21] ---**
Shut up! Stop screeching
in that damn shrill voice!
**[16:27] ---**
Them being your Tsuguko was a lie, right?
**[16:30] ---**
Your movements are so out of sync!
**[16:34] ---**
What a total bust!
**[16:40] ---**
You can't even get close to me!
**[16:43] ---**
Shut up, Worm Woman!
**[16:46] ---**
If you want to prove anything, why don't you
shut your trap and see if you can kill us!
**[16:52] ---**
All right, as you wish!
**[17:13] ---**
You can just die!
**[17:16] ---**
*So quick!*
**[17:17] ---**
*He really is like a praying mantis!*
**[17:19] ---**
*What's up with these slashes?*
**[17:38] ---**
*There's no way out of this!*
**[17:42] ---**
*Heavy! These slashes are so heavy!*
**[17:49] ---**
*Sidestep it! Ward off the blow!*
**[17:51] ---**
*If you take the blow head-on,
it'll snap your blade in two!*
**[17:54] ---**
*If it's power versus power,
the weaker side always loses!*
**[17:59] ---**
*Don't misjudge the flow of power
and ward it off as you should!*
**[18:03] ---**
*The flexible Water Breathing technique
is better for defense...*
**[18:06] ---**
*if it's only to ward off the blow!*
**[18:09] ---**
*My blade never would've gotten nicked!*
**[18:20] ---**
*Sound Breathing...*
**[18:22] ---**
*Fifth Form...*
**[18:25] ---**
*String Performance!*
**[18:29] ---**
*You can assault me with your noisy moves,
but it'll do you no good!*
**[18:36] ---**
Die! Die! You ugly toads!
**[18:41] ---**
It's not just the Belts!
**[18:42] ---**
Now we have blood blades flying toward us!
**[18:44] ---**
What's going on?
I can't get near that Worm Woman!
**[18:48] ---**
Dammit!
**[18:49] ---**
These blood blades are big trouble!
**[18:51] ---**
I can feel it all over my body
that just a scratch would be deadly!
**[19:01] ---**
Damn!
**[19:02] ---**
Be useful! Don't let him attack as much!
**[19:06] ---**
Find a way to win!
**[19:09] ---**
*He's not going to hold up much longer!*
**[19:11] ---**
*It's a miracle that he can still move at all!*
**[19:14] ---**
*That shoulder wound must be really deep!*
**[19:17] ---**
*He seems to have stopped the bleeding,
but it's touch and go!*
**[19:20] ---**
*That left hand tied to his hilt
is the only thing keeping his sword in his grip!*
**[19:24] ---**
*All because I got poisoned!*
**[19:27] ---**
*I have to take care of this,
or we'll be wiped out!*
**[19:34] ---**
*I can't breathe!*
**[19:35] ---**
*This furious attack is leaving me gasping!*
**[19:38] ---**
*I'm about to black out!
I have to find a way...*
**[19:40] ---**
*to start Recovery Breathing!*
**[20:05] ---**
*What are those?*
**[20:06] ---**
*Kunai?*
**[20:08] ---**
*It's going to be a pain, dealing with this
much of them in front of a Hashira.*
**[20:13] ---**
*What a chore! So annoying!*
**[20:16] ---**
*When there are still
three fledgling Demon Slayers, too!*
**[20:19] ---**
*Well, even if they hit me,
those things are no...*
**[20:23] ---**
*No.*
**[20:24] ---**
*Would they really try to pull off
such a meaningless attack?*
**[20:29] ---**
*Blood Demon Art...
Rampant Arc Rampage!*
**[20:32] ---**
*He's creating a dome with the slashes!*
**[20:36] ---**
*Hey, hey, hey!*
**[20:37] ---**
*What's going on here?
He's coming at me!*
**[20:41] ---**
*There's one stuck in you!*
**[20:43] ---**
*A Kunai, piercing you, too!*
**[20:46] ---**
*That's right, he's a shinobi.
Not a swordsman.*
**[20:49] ---**
*This guy's always had
otherworldly senses!*
**[20:55] ---**
What the...
**[20:58] ---**
*My legs won't regenerate!*
**[21:00] ---**
*I knew it! They're laced with something!*
**[21:03] ---**
*This Kunai!*
**[21:05] ---**
*Probably with something
extracted from wisteria!*
**[21:09] ---**
*M-My body's going numb!*
**[21:14] ---**
*Hey, not too shabby!*
**[21:16] ---**
*Starting to get into sync
in such a short time! Pretty amusing!*
**[21:21] ---**
*Please!*
**[22:59] ---**
NIN-NIN
**[23:01] ---**
Nin-nin!
**[23:02] ---**
Rengoku, how would you fight?
**[23:06] ---**
I might not be able to handle it
like you would.
**[23:11] ---**
I could never be like you, either!
**[23:15] ---**
Rengoku!
**[23:16] ---**
Your sword skills are a thing of beauty!
**[23:19] ---**
Though you do have too many wives!
**[23:23] ---**
Look after Young Kamado, the yellow boy
and the boar head boy for me, Uzui.
**[23:33] ---**
Just leave those flashy jobs to me.
**[23:35] ---**
Next, Episode 9,
