this series is so good and it really rides on how compelling tanjiro is as a main protag....he's just so likable and kind and strong and somehow still not just a mary sue?? he's just a sweet older brother who's put in a horrific situation and does his best. the beginning arc sold me on him and he's just gotten better imo. also usually hate how dragged out shounens get but the pacing of this feels natural (altho i think we could have used an arc before this one, it's a little sad to get the backstories of all the pillars right before they die lmao)
