PerfectU Review: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba — Infinity Castle

From its very first frame, Infinity Castle pulls you into a world of shifting walls and moonlit battles, proving once again why Demon Slayer remains an anime phenomenon. Ufotable’s artistry shines — blending 2D and 3D seamlessly to create a surreal, living environment that heightens both the tension and beauty of every fight.

What Works ✨

The castle itself feels alive, a thrilling stage for battles like Tanjiro vs Akaza and Shinobu vs Doma. The action is breathtaking, yet what lingers are the emotions — Zenitsu’s unexpected courage and Akaza’s heartbreaking past remind us that even demons carry human pain. The soundtrack, with its haunting intensity, amplifies every clash of swords and every silence in between.

What Doesn’t ⚖

The frequent flashbacks, while adding depth, sometimes interrupt the pacing of high-stakes duels. For newcomers, the layered histories and relationships can feel overwhelming. The film works best as part of its larger trilogy rather than as a standalone feature.

Verdict 🌌🔥

Infinity Castle is a ferocious blend of spectacle and soul — visually stunning, emotionally stirring, and musically immersive. Though not flawless, it is a cinematic experience worth savoring on the biggest screen possible.
