For those of you ready to check out the new chapter, you can do so through Viz Media ASAP. The website has been simulpublishing the chapters of Demon Slayer for a good while now. That means it was quick to get chapter 205 up today when it went live in Japan, and fans flooded the site eager to read this chapter.
As you can see below, we have collected a sample of responses to the finale, and they are all over the place. While plenty of fans are happy with the series and its gentle end, others were not on board. They felt the ending was the culmination of a botched arc.

A Fine Farewell
Shoutout to Demon Slayer for ending on a good note and not straying too far from itโs original theme. The manga wrapped up nicely.

A Clean Cut
Just finished the final chapter of the manga, and honestly, I think it was a great ending to the series. My favorite part was definitely seeing Giyu, Sabito, and Makomo together reincarnated! Sad it’s done, but it’s best to not drag it on #DemonSlayer pic.twitter.com/HIIzHiREZ6

A Gentle Ending
Last chapter of Demon Slayer was good. Endings suck, but it proves that a series doesn’t need to be over a 1000s of chapters long; for a story to be good. All stories need an ending to the climatic ending of the characters journey. Not 100% happy with it, at least it’s completed.

A So-So Farewell
That demon slayer ending left a bad taste in my mouth, Iโm not a fan of this final arc whatsoever . I donโt know if Iโm being too critical but this series went from a banger to a mediocre shonen. It just needed to stick the landing but it didnโt. Overall decent story pic.twitter.com/NlUDMlKYaT
