Demon Slayer: Kanao Tsuyuri’s skirt angers Otakus

Finally, and after a wait of almost 1 year, anime fans and especially fans of “Demon Slayer” (Kimetsu no Yaiba) are celebrating, as the epic adventure of Tanjiro and the pillars to defeat Muzan Kibutsuji, has returned with its new season and arc titled “Pillars Training Arc”. As expected, this has caused a lot of excitement and hype in the different social networks, but it has also been a reason for some fans to be somewhat dismayed by a detail that has given life to a new and very peculiar controversy involving Kanao Tsuyuri.

A very strange controversy about the length of Kanao’s skirt in Demon Slayer is born in Japan!

Demon Slayer Kanao Tsuyuri Polemica Falda

This new anime season, spring 2024, has brought with it the return of Demon Slayer with its fourth season, where the emphasis on the training of the pillars will be decisive for what we will be shown later in the work. This time, Japanese fans have noticed a peculiar detail that has changed around the disciple of the “Insect Pillar”, Kanao Tsuyuri. It turns out that for this new season the skirt of Kanao’s demon hunter uniform is shorter than in previous seasons, being more noticeable this change if we compare this detail with the first season, as we can see in the image above.

This peculiar and imperceptible detail for some, has caused a great commotion and a wide debate in the Japanese forum “Yaraon!“, where a sector of anime fans and otaku have described this change as a “sad news”. Some have commented that this “fan service” is really bad and that it only seeks to please that group of otakus who love thighs, as well as that it was much nicer and pleasing to the eye, the design where Kanao’s skirt was longer.

On the other hand, there was also a fan who said that it was something very normal, since this girl, even being very young, was in full growth, so it made a lot of sense that this uniform started to be a bit short for her. Evidently, there were also some other fans who took this “controversy” about “Demon Slayer” (Kimetsu no Yaiba) and joked that it was because Kanao wanted to seduce and impress Tanjiro while another one ironically pointed out that it was probably her summer report.

Demon Slayer Hashira Training Arc” (Kimetsu no Yaiba: Hashira Geiko-hen) shows us the events following the battle of Tanjiro, Nezuko, Tokito, Misturi and company against the 2 superior moons in the blacksmith village. After having defeated both enemies, an important event involving Nezuko is revealed, which will lead the main enemy of the company of demon hunters, Muzan Kibutsuji to take action against him, which will endanger all the members of the team.

Faced with this new scenario, the pillars, the most formidable warriors of the company, draw up a new plan that translates into applying a training aimed at all the demon hunter members to prepare them physically and mentally before carrying out the dangerous assault on the infinite dimensional fortress, the lair of the most dangerous demons.

This is how the hard tests that Tanjiro, Inosuke and Zenitsu will have to pass before being able to face their destiny in an epic battle in which they will try to put an end to all of Muzan’s plans to be immune to sunlight and continue spreading terror. This also marks the beginning of the end of one of the most important and popular works in the anime industry today.
