鬼滅の刃 // lummersの日記 // [話#4]

先日長いバスの旅で鬼滅の刃初めてみました。

ネフリで少し話のダウンロード しました。

【I downloaded a few episodes off Netflix to try it out】は日本語で何と言いますか。

各話は短いですから複数のエピソードを一気に観るのは簡単。

剣士になる少年の物語です。彼は鬼の嗅ぐですと簡単に友達を作れる。彼は妹を箱に入れて持ち歩いています。

私の好きなキャラクターは「嘴平伊之助」。彼は豬頭面具着ます*。とても変人です！数回彼をさせる笑える。

残念ながらもう一人のキャラクターはものすごく腰抜けです。彼を我慢 ならない。

全体的には楽しいです。【It's not worth all the hype**】は日本語で何と言いますか。

日本語音声と英語字幕で見ています。「DEMON」は「鬼滅」ではなく「鬼」と呼ばれていることに気づきました。また、「SLAYER」は「刃」ではなく「剣士」と呼ばれていることに気づきました。このアニメの名前は「鬼の剣士」にするべきだ！　あるいは「鬼を嗅ぐの剣士」！


* He wears a boar head as a mask (he's wearing a boar's actual head).

** In English, if something is very popular and is good, we say it is "worth the hype" (i.e. worthy of having the hyped status). If something is very popular and isn't that good (i.e. it's overrated), we say it's "not worth the hype". This doesn't mean that it is "bad", just that it didn't meet expectations given it's hype/popularity.

The other day, during a long bus ride, I watched Demon Slayer for the first time.

I downloaded a few episodes off/from Netflix.

How do you say: "I downloaded a few episodes off Netflix to try it out"?

Each episode is short, so it's easy to binge multiple episodes at once.

The story is about a boy who becomes a swordsman. He can smell demons and easily makes friends. He carries his sister around in a box.

My favourite character is Inosuke Hashibira. He wears a boar head as a mask. He is very weird. He made me laugh out loud several times.

Unfortunately, there is another character who is a massive wimp/coward. I find him insufferable.

Overall, it's pretty enjoyable. However, it's not worth all the hype.

I'm watching it with Japanese voices and English subtitles. I noticed that the demons are referred to as "oni" in Japanese and not "kimetsu". I also noticed that the slayers/hunters are refered to as "kenshin" and not "yaiba". The show should be called "oni no kenshin"! Or, perhaps, Demon-Sniffing Swordsman!
