it's just a movie cut into 7 ep. I see no reason to give it a higher rating. The first one is just a minor insert, the others are straight movie where there should be some minor scenes that weren't in the movie. I personally didn't notice them there. for me 6/10

Demon slayer is one of the rare anime that come into your life and completely capture your attention throughout their whole duration. I actually skipped the movie to watch this season directly and I am very glad I did. Amazing quality and an absolute banger of a sequel with some heavy moments that characterize the series. Absolutely recommended and must see!

Great continuation of a great story. And yes, you need to watch this particular OVA, and not the movie, because everything is the same plus new scenes.

S2 picks up right where S1 left off... main characters boarding a train. As per usual, the animation and art style are top notch. The last fight was awesome... in short, if you enjoyed the previous season, the same tone is maintained. In terms of what to watch... movie or this season, this season has a bit more extra scenes, including episode 1 which is a set up to Mugen Train arc, so if you want a few more scenes, S2 is better; however the movie will still work, but either way, the Mugen Train arc was entertaining and I look forward to the next season.

Same storyline with the movie, which is the continuation from the anime series. While the movie is good, the series added a few extra scenes
