Tanjiro and the last moment of a demon hand

Tanjiro is one of the most convincing anime protagonists of all time, not only because of his impressive skills of demons, but also because of his cute personality. The call is kind and selfless is an underestimation, given that it still shows mercy and forgiveness to various demon who wants to kill him and absorb him and not. Instead of cursing these demons, he decides to look for their suffering and offer kindness.

One particular demon from Demon Season 1, Episode 5, has witnessed Tanjiro in the last moments. The handmade demon, otherwise known as Teoni, was infamous for killing 13 Urocodaki students, including Makomo and Sabita. But he failed to kill Tanjiro, who had the strength to cut his neck during the final selection. And in his last moments, Tanjiro held his hand and prayed for another life as a man rather than a demon.

While the last scene between Tanjiro and The Hand Demon is among many fans of heart, including Demon'Is an editor, Tatsuhiko Katayama, Koyohara Gotouge wanted to cut it out of the storyboard. In an interview with Manga Plus, Katayam revealed an interview that he had with Gotouge, who mentioned the initial desire of the creator to delete the scene:

“If I had to talk about something I had to be careful about … there was a demon called” Teoni “or” Hand Demon “there, wasn't there? Gotoge-Sensei wanted to cut it out of the storyboard. When I first heard of the scene, I thought there was no other main character like Tanjiro, and I got goose bumps. The enemy has also experienced his own sadness and shows Tanjiro's hand showing mercy. I remember that I said, “No wonder the enemy is all hands … everything is connected. That's amazing, isn't it?” I was shocked when Gotoge-Sensei responded with something I like “Oh, right?” (Laughs), so I had to make sure that none of the strong points of Gotogge-Sensei slipped around. Maybe there was a bit of a fight. I feel that I have to raise these unique properties in the discussion, otherwise there is a chance that they can decrease. Gotoge-Sensei has an ignorant page for him and sometimes he can't objectively see his own strengths. ”

It is interesting how talented manga artists like Koyohara Gotouge also try to realize their own genius. Fortunately, the process of creating mangoes and anime is a cooperating effort where the editor like Tatsuhiko Katayama could enter to ensure that none of the strengths of the Creator is overlooked.

In the end, Tanjirova's last scene with a demon with his hand remained and shows how compassionate he was for the protagonist. It is one of those scenes that distinguishes Tanjiro from most Shounen MCS, given its deep empathy and sadness for its opponents and face to face.

Fighting for creating Tanjiro

In the same interview, Tatsuhiko Katayama also remembered a few moments when Koyohara Gotouge was considering Tanjir's character. While many fans celebrate Tanjiro for being a unique anime protagonist, DemonThe creator had doubts that his editor shared:

“Even though he comes to Tanjiro, he (Koyohara Gotouge) makes comments like “He's too normal, I can't decide if she's interesting”“So I have to insist that it is so fine. There are points that even though I think they are great, Gotogoge-Sensei thinks nothing. It's exactly how it is, so I have to make sure these interesting qualities will not miss.”

Obviously, without catayama, fans could get another Tanjiro, someone who has the usual features of the main character, such as loud, nervous and cracking with many tricks and tricks on the sleeve. If he was rewritten to be a flash and sharper, the reception could be different and would not bear the same emotional weight.

At first glance, Tanjiro may look normal and common, but thanks to this it is strange compared to other main characters. Is painfully human, ground and kind, which much attracts Demon Fans from the very beginning. His empathy for demons makes him unique, unlike other characters in a series that feels no care or concern for these monsters he eats on the meat.

All in all, the revelation of Tatsuhiko Katayama offers a new perspective on the mango creation process Demon. Who would know that Koyohara Gotouge, even though he is a creative genius, is also trying to recognize his own strengths? This shows only Gotouge's humility, but also their openness to accept comments and suggestions that could improve their work.
