as an arachnophobe, this volume was hell to get through (and I know the next one will be as well), but at least the characters are fun and made it all worthwhile (tanjiro, zenitsu and inosuke all share half a braincell and most of the time it's with tanjiro). admittedly, zenitsu's backstory made me tear up despite my very mixed feelings about him this early on in the story - honestly, those feelings didn't really change by the time I finished the anime, but I appreciate the character work. we were also briefly introduced to shinobu and reintroduced to giyuu (both of whom I love with my whole heart and soul), which was exciting! I can't wait to see more of them in the next volume.
