1
00:00:16,057 --> 00:00:17,142
It can't be.

2
00:00:17,434 --> 00:00:18,601
My sword...

3
00:02:15,051 --> 00:02:16,594
Incredible.

4
00:02:17,220 --> 00:02:18,638
He's totally out of our league.

5
00:02:18,721 --> 00:02:20,557
His sword is out of this world.

6
00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:22,559
He's simply poles apart from me.

7
00:02:22,892 --> 00:02:26,604
He even cut up a rock-hard fiend
as if he was slicing tofu.

8
00:02:26,771 --> 00:02:29,983
He's amazing!

9
00:02:31,484 --> 00:02:33,027
Who is he?

10
00:02:33,361 --> 00:02:35,780
I still have goosebumps!

11
00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:46,541
Hold it right there!

12
00:02:46,875 --> 00:02:49,002
I challenge you to a duel,
Mismatched Haori!

13
00:02:49,335 --> 00:02:51,838
You defeated
one of the Twelve Demon Moons.

14
00:02:51,963 --> 00:02:53,256
So I'm going to defeat you.

15
00:02:53,339 --> 00:02:54,757
That's what I've planned for.

16
00:02:54,841 --> 00:02:56,384
And then...

17
00:02:58,386 --> 00:03:01,055
I will be the strongest man around!

18
00:03:01,598 --> 00:03:04,267
Go back to your training, trouble seeker.

19
00:03:07,312 --> 00:03:08,605
What did you call me?

20
00:03:09,105 --> 00:03:11,733
The demon I just took care of
is not one of the Twelve Demon Moons.

21
00:03:11,858 --> 00:03:13,651
And you don't even know that?

22
00:03:13,943 --> 00:03:15,236
Of course I do!

23
00:03:15,361 --> 00:03:18,990
I didn't consider that small-timer one of
the Twelve Demon Moons to begin with.

24
00:03:19,282 --> 00:03:22,035
It's Tanjiro who said that
it was one of the Twelve Demon Moons.

25
00:03:22,118 --> 00:03:25,288
I was just going by what he said.

26
00:03:29,417 --> 00:03:31,377
What the hell? I'm tied up.

27
00:03:31,920 --> 00:03:33,004
He's fast.

28
00:03:33,129 --> 00:03:34,505
He moves really fast.

29
00:03:34,923 --> 00:03:36,799
Hey, hold it right there!

30
00:03:37,175 --> 00:03:39,886
You don't even realize
how bad your injuries are.

31
00:03:39,969 --> 00:03:41,512
You shouldn't have fought.

32
00:03:42,805 --> 00:03:43,890
I can't hear you!

33
00:03:43,973 --> 00:03:46,309
Your voice is too soft
and you walk too fast!

34
00:03:46,434 --> 00:03:49,812
I said hold it right there
and untie me now!

35
00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:51,481
Hey!

36
00:03:51,773 --> 00:03:55,193
Hey!

37
00:04:12,043 --> 00:04:13,962
Hello.

38
00:04:14,212 --> 00:04:15,880
Are you okay?

39
00:04:18,091 --> 00:04:19,592
Grandpa.

40
00:04:20,718 --> 00:04:22,762
Who's your grandpa?

41
00:04:23,554 --> 00:04:26,349
My grandpa dropped by.

42
00:04:27,308 --> 00:04:29,560
He told me not to give up.

43
00:04:30,478 --> 00:04:32,522
You saw your life flashing before you,
didn't you?

44
00:04:32,689 --> 00:04:36,985
It has been said that people see
flashbacks of life at the brink of death

45
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,988
so they'll know how to avoid the fate

46
00:04:40,071 --> 00:04:43,866
from past experiences and memories.

47
00:04:44,909 --> 00:04:49,372
But well, I haven't experienced it,
so I don't know.

48
00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:56,087
You were smart to stop the poison inside
with your breath.

49
00:04:56,504 --> 00:05:00,675
If you hadn't done that,
you would've turned into a spider by now.

50
00:05:01,092 --> 00:05:02,927
Now I'm giving you the antidote.

51
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:08,016
Hurry. Over here.

52
00:05:10,018 --> 00:05:11,060
Can you take them down?

53
00:05:11,602 --> 00:05:12,770
Be careful.

54
00:05:13,521 --> 00:05:15,398
It's okay. Everyone is still alive.

55
00:05:32,332 --> 00:05:33,916
My sword is broken.

56
00:05:34,584 --> 00:05:35,877
I can't believe it.

57
00:05:36,419 --> 00:05:38,212
Are this kid's threads

58
00:05:38,296 --> 00:05:42,258
tougher than the rock-hard demon
that I slashed before?

59
00:05:43,843 --> 00:05:45,928
I'm sorry, Master Urokodaki

60
00:05:46,471 --> 00:05:47,722
and Mr. Haganezuka.

61
00:05:48,306 --> 00:05:51,642
It's my lack of skills
that got my sword broken.

62
00:05:54,437 --> 00:05:56,647
No, this isn't the time for despair.

63
00:05:56,731 --> 00:05:58,441
Think!

64
00:06:00,276 --> 00:06:03,863
Since I can't cut the threads,
what if I go right for his head?

65
00:06:09,786 --> 00:06:10,912
That won't work.

66
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:12,997
The threads seem to be alive.

67
00:06:13,081 --> 00:06:14,332
I can't just get past them.

68
00:06:14,540 --> 00:06:17,752
Besides, he's carefully manipulating
his threads not to kill me.

69
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,670
Just so I can't do anything about it.

70
00:06:21,589 --> 00:06:22,507
Well?

71
00:06:22,965 --> 00:06:26,260
Don't you want to take back
what you just said?

72
00:06:29,097 --> 00:06:30,264
Very well.

73
00:06:30,556 --> 00:06:32,975
I'm going to tear you into shreds then.

74
00:06:34,852 --> 00:06:36,145
I can't dodge those!

75
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:48,449
Nezuko!

76
00:06:52,537 --> 00:06:54,247
Nezuko!

77
00:06:54,580 --> 00:06:57,083
I'm sorry that you had to defend me.

78
00:06:57,875 --> 00:07:00,670
There's a girl in the box on his back.

79
00:07:01,129 --> 00:07:03,548
But she reeks of a demon.

80
00:07:08,678 --> 00:07:09,679
You...

81
00:07:10,430 --> 00:07:11,431
That...

82
00:07:12,890 --> 00:07:14,016
That girl...

83
00:07:15,184 --> 00:07:16,394
Are you two siblings?

84
00:07:16,894 --> 00:07:18,271
So what?

85
00:07:19,188 --> 00:07:20,606
The wound is so deep.

86
00:07:21,232 --> 00:07:23,359
Her left hand is almost severed.

87
00:07:25,570 --> 00:07:28,698
Please heal faster!

88
00:07:29,907 --> 00:07:32,201
Siblings...

89
00:07:32,827 --> 00:07:34,662
His sister is a demon.

90
00:07:35,121 --> 00:07:36,998
-And yet, she's still with him.
-Rui?

91
00:07:38,249 --> 00:07:41,711
His sister stepped out
to protect her brother.

92
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,505
This is what I call a true bond.

93
00:07:44,839 --> 00:07:45,798
I want that!

94
00:07:46,174 --> 00:07:48,426
Wait... Wait a second!

95
00:07:48,885 --> 00:07:50,553
Please wait.

96
00:07:50,678 --> 00:07:52,180
I'm your older sister!

97
00:07:52,305 --> 00:07:53,723
Don't give me up like that!

98
00:07:53,806 --> 00:07:54,849
Shut up!

99
00:08:06,486 --> 00:08:10,573
In the end,
you failed to accomplish your missions.

100
00:08:11,157 --> 00:08:13,493
Each and every time.

101
00:08:14,327 --> 00:08:16,329
Wait.

102
00:08:16,579 --> 00:08:18,956
I'm your sister, right?

103
00:08:19,457 --> 00:08:21,042
Let me make it up to you.

104
00:08:21,501 --> 00:08:26,005
In that case, go finish off those people
wandering all over this mountain.

105
00:08:27,006 --> 00:08:30,384
If you can do that, I'll let you off
for what happened earlier.

106
00:08:32,053 --> 00:08:33,012
All right.

107
00:08:33,471 --> 00:08:34,805
I'll kill them all.

108
00:08:41,145 --> 00:08:42,188
Hey, kid.

109
00:08:43,481 --> 00:08:45,983
Kid, let's talk.

110
00:08:46,067 --> 00:08:47,109
Come out.

111
00:08:48,611 --> 00:08:49,695
Kid?

112
00:08:50,696 --> 00:08:51,739
Talk?

113
00:08:52,990 --> 00:08:55,743
I'm really touched.

114
00:08:56,536 --> 00:08:59,455
I can't help but shudder
at the bond between you two.

115
00:09:00,289 --> 00:09:04,043
I believe that no words can describe
what I'm feeling right now.

116
00:09:04,877 --> 00:09:07,713
But I still have to finish you two off.

117
00:09:08,589 --> 00:09:09,924
It's sad, isn't it?

118
00:09:10,091 --> 00:09:11,509
To face a tragic end like this.

119
00:09:14,804 --> 00:09:16,389
But there's only one...

120
00:09:17,265 --> 00:09:20,184
Only one way to avoid this horrible fate.

121
00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:22,895
Your sister...

122
00:09:24,188 --> 00:09:26,357
Hand over your sister to me.

123
00:09:26,941 --> 00:09:30,861
If you do that without putting a fight,
I'll let you live.

124
00:09:33,573 --> 00:09:35,950
I don't get what you mean.

125
00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:40,329
I want your sister to be my sister

126
00:09:40,746 --> 00:09:41,789
starting today.

127
00:09:42,957 --> 00:09:45,918
There's no way I'm going to agree to that.

128
00:09:46,460 --> 00:09:48,629
And Nezuko is not a commodity.

129
00:09:48,963 --> 00:09:51,048
She is conscious and can think on her own.

130
00:09:51,799 --> 00:09:54,260
She'll never become your sister.

131
00:09:55,469 --> 00:09:58,306
Relax, there's no need to worry.

132
00:09:58,806 --> 00:10:00,349
I'll create a bond between us.

133
00:10:00,975 --> 00:10:03,019
I'm stronger than you.

134
00:10:03,352 --> 00:10:05,146
I'm talking about the bond of terror.

135
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:08,065
I'll teach her what happens
if she defies me.

136
00:10:08,274 --> 00:10:10,443
I've had enough of this crazy talk.

137
00:10:10,776 --> 00:10:13,154
You bind people using terror.

138
00:10:13,237 --> 00:10:15,072
That's not what a family bond is!

139
00:10:15,364 --> 00:10:18,326
If you can't figure out
where you went wrong about bonding,

140
00:10:18,492 --> 00:10:20,911
you won't get what you desire!

141
00:10:21,871 --> 00:10:23,456
You are so annoying.

142
00:10:23,581 --> 00:10:25,583
You don't have to scream.

143
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,793
We both just don't see eye to eye, do we?

144
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:35,676
I'll never give away Nezuko to you.

145
00:10:36,927 --> 00:10:38,304
That's fine with me.

146
00:10:38,554 --> 00:10:40,014
I'll take her once I kill you.

147
00:10:40,348 --> 00:10:42,767
I'll chop your head before that.

148
00:10:43,476 --> 00:10:45,478
What powerful words.

149
00:10:46,270 --> 00:10:48,272
Let's see if you can walk the talk.

150
00:10:49,899 --> 00:10:54,070
Let's see if you can beat me,
a member of the Twelve Demon Moons.

151
00:10:55,237 --> 00:10:56,322
Family.

152
00:10:58,324 --> 00:11:00,618
A father has a father's duties.

153
00:11:01,702 --> 00:11:04,205
A mother has a mother's duties.

154
00:11:05,706 --> 00:11:07,375
Parents protect their children.

155
00:11:08,542 --> 00:11:12,088
Older siblings
protect their younger siblings.

156
00:11:13,130 --> 00:11:14,507
No matter what.

157
00:11:15,925 --> 00:11:17,510
At the risk of their own lives.

158
00:11:18,761 --> 00:11:20,012
I believe that

159
00:11:20,554 --> 00:11:23,391
anyone who doesn't know their duties

160
00:11:23,766 --> 00:11:26,352
shouldn't exist.

161
00:11:27,812 --> 00:11:29,021
What about you?

162
00:11:29,814 --> 00:11:31,649
What's your duty?

163
00:11:33,067 --> 00:11:36,278
Your duty is to give up your sister
and get out of my sight.

164
00:11:36,987 --> 00:11:39,240
If you refuse, it's all over for you.

165
00:11:40,449 --> 00:11:41,826
Because you can't defeat me.

166
00:11:44,412 --> 00:11:45,955
Lower Moon Five.

167
00:11:46,997 --> 00:11:49,083
No wonder he's so powerful.

168
00:11:49,542 --> 00:11:51,919
He's a real Twelve Demon Moon.

169
00:11:53,003 --> 00:11:54,922
I can't cut his threads easily.

170
00:11:55,297 --> 00:11:58,217
What should I do with a broken blade?

171
00:11:58,884 --> 00:12:01,053
If his neck is tougher than his threads...

172
00:12:02,263 --> 00:12:04,014
What an irritating gaze.

173
00:12:04,181 --> 00:12:05,391
It's shimmering.

174
00:12:05,975 --> 00:12:07,351
You're such a fool.

175
00:12:07,810 --> 00:12:09,145
I don't suppose

176
00:12:09,603 --> 00:12:11,939
that you want to defeat me?

177
00:12:16,485 --> 00:12:17,445
Nezuko!

178
00:12:19,321 --> 00:12:21,574
I got her now.

179
00:12:21,991 --> 00:12:24,410
Do you realize what your duty is now?

180
00:12:24,577 --> 00:12:25,786
Let her go!

181
00:12:26,495 --> 00:12:30,499
I told you if you don't resist me,
I'll spare your life.

182
00:12:41,844 --> 00:12:43,179
Nezuko's gone.

183
00:12:51,228 --> 00:12:52,354
Nezuko!

184
00:12:59,862 --> 00:13:01,280
You're so noisy.

185
00:13:01,447 --> 00:13:04,992
Something like that won't kill her
because she's a demon.

186
00:13:06,035 --> 00:13:08,913
But now I need to teach her a good lesson.

187
00:13:09,413 --> 00:13:11,457
I'm going to let her bleed for a while.

188
00:13:12,416 --> 00:13:14,919
If she still doesn't cooperate,

189
00:13:15,085 --> 00:13:17,296
I'll leave her out here until daybreak

190
00:13:18,172 --> 00:13:19,715
and roast her a little bit.

191
00:13:20,090 --> 00:13:23,594
Let go of Nezuko!

192
00:13:46,367 --> 00:13:47,409
You...

193
00:13:47,493 --> 00:13:49,245
Do you actually think

194
00:13:50,538 --> 00:13:55,000
that you can chop my head off
just by getting close to me?

195
00:13:59,672 --> 00:14:02,299
Sure. Go ahead and chop me off.

196
00:14:10,432 --> 00:14:13,185
The sword couldn't cut him!

197
00:14:15,104 --> 00:14:16,021
Right?

198
00:14:16,146 --> 00:14:17,690
What did I tell you?

199
00:14:18,774 --> 00:14:21,068
You can't defeat me.

200
00:14:28,284 --> 00:14:32,288
My body is way tougher
than any thread I've manipulated.

201
00:14:33,205 --> 00:14:35,374
You can't even cut my thread.

202
00:14:35,457 --> 00:14:37,793
Let alone my neck.

203
00:14:49,096 --> 00:14:50,180
He's strong.

204
00:14:50,598 --> 00:14:54,268
His strength is way beyond any demon
I've encountered before.

205
00:14:54,852 --> 00:14:57,646
He's one of the Twelve Demon Moons.

206
00:14:58,814 --> 00:15:01,984
The power of a demon
closely related to Kibutsuji?

207
00:15:08,157 --> 00:15:09,283
Shut up.

208
00:15:09,658 --> 00:15:11,201
I need you to be quiet.

209
00:15:14,371 --> 00:15:15,748
Stop!

210
00:15:16,582 --> 00:15:18,876
I am your brother from now on.

211
00:15:19,251 --> 00:15:21,253
So stop whining.

212
00:15:24,006 --> 00:15:25,215
Calm down.

213
00:15:25,382 --> 00:15:27,134
Don't let anger get to you.

214
00:15:27,384 --> 00:15:29,637
You will only play right into his hands.

215
00:15:34,391 --> 00:15:35,726
She has lost consciousness.

216
00:15:36,894 --> 00:15:38,228
Is she sleeping?

217
00:15:39,396 --> 00:15:41,774
That's one unique demon.

218
00:15:42,024 --> 00:15:44,401
She's somehow different from us.

219
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:46,695
Interesting.

220
00:15:48,030 --> 00:15:49,448
I must concentrate.

221
00:15:49,949 --> 00:15:54,620
Adjust my breath to unleash
the most precise, ultimate form.

222
00:15:55,204 --> 00:15:57,164
Total Concentration Breathing!

223
00:15:59,667 --> 00:16:02,252
Don't you realize
that you're only wasting your breath?

224
00:16:06,966 --> 00:16:08,425
Breath of Water.

225
00:16:08,717 --> 00:16:10,010
Tenth Form.

226
00:16:10,678 --> 00:16:12,638
Constant Flux!

227
00:16:17,935 --> 00:16:18,852
I did it.

228
00:16:18,936 --> 00:16:20,187
I cut the threads.

229
00:16:20,896 --> 00:16:23,607
His blade got more powerful
just by spinning.

230
00:16:24,441 --> 00:16:26,235
This is going to make things
a little harder.

231
00:16:27,069 --> 00:16:28,070
I did it.

232
00:16:28,237 --> 00:16:30,823
I just need to get closer
and I'll win this.

233
00:16:34,326 --> 00:16:35,285
Hey.

234
00:16:35,786 --> 00:16:38,914
Do you think this is the toughest
my threads can get?

235
00:16:39,915 --> 00:16:42,459
Blood Demon Art. Cruel String Prison.

236
00:16:44,128 --> 00:16:45,879
I've had enough of you.

237
00:16:46,296 --> 00:16:47,339
Now begone.

238
00:16:49,758 --> 00:16:50,801
Oh, no.

239
00:16:50,884 --> 00:16:52,302
I can't cut through these ones.

240
00:16:52,511 --> 00:16:54,054
My rotation isn't fast enough.

241
00:16:54,722 --> 00:16:57,141
And it smells totally different
from the other threads.

242
00:16:57,975 --> 00:17:00,436
And I can't lose!

243
00:17:01,311 --> 00:17:02,312
I'm going to die.

244
00:17:02,604 --> 00:17:03,522
I'm about to lose!

245
00:17:04,356 --> 00:17:05,441
I'm dead...

246
00:17:30,674 --> 00:17:31,800
Dad.

247
00:17:34,386 --> 00:17:35,512
Tanjiro.

248
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:37,848
Breathe.

249
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,142
Consolidate your breath.

250
00:17:40,601 --> 00:17:42,644
Be a God of Fire by all means.

251
00:17:52,863 --> 00:17:54,031
Tanjiro.

252
00:17:54,698 --> 00:17:55,741
Look.

253
00:17:55,949 --> 00:17:57,618
Your dad is performing the kagura dance.

254
00:17:58,744 --> 00:18:03,540
Our family works with fire
to protect us from injuries and disasters.

255
00:18:03,832 --> 00:18:08,796
During the New Year, we dance to
the God of Fire to pray for peace.

256
00:18:14,843 --> 00:18:16,345
Mom.

257
00:18:17,805 --> 00:18:20,015
Dad's body isn't very strong.

258
00:18:20,182 --> 00:18:24,103
Why is he dancing for so long
in the middle of the snow?

259
00:18:25,771 --> 00:18:29,149
Wouldn't that freeze his lungs?

260
00:18:32,277 --> 00:18:34,238
Because I have a certain way of breathing.

261
00:18:34,905 --> 00:18:38,325
To make sure that I don't get tired
no matter how tough it gets.

262
00:18:38,909 --> 00:18:39,993
Breathe?

263
00:18:40,786 --> 00:18:41,829
Yes.

264
00:18:42,121 --> 00:18:44,456
If you breathe right,

265
00:18:44,873 --> 00:18:47,167
you can keep on dancing
like me too, Tanjiro,

266
00:18:48,127 --> 00:18:50,212
without thinking of the cold.

267
00:18:51,630 --> 00:18:52,756
Tanjiro.

268
00:18:53,465 --> 00:18:56,385
Kagura and the earrings are our heirloom.

269
00:18:57,469 --> 00:18:59,847
They must be passed down
from generation to generation.

270
00:19:01,181 --> 00:19:02,683
This is our promise.

271
00:19:08,772 --> 00:19:10,274
Dance of the Fire God.

272
00:19:13,277 --> 00:19:14,486
Dance!

273
00:19:15,445 --> 00:19:16,446
My threads...

274
00:19:21,702 --> 00:19:22,703
Don't stop.

275
00:19:22,953 --> 00:19:24,163
Keep running.

276
00:19:24,663 --> 00:19:26,039
If I stop now,

277
00:19:26,165 --> 00:19:30,544
the Dance of the Fire God I created
from the Breath of Water will backfire.

278
00:19:31,295 --> 00:19:35,174
And if that happens,
I'll be paralyzed for a moment.

279
00:19:36,175 --> 00:19:39,094
So I must keep on running.

280
00:19:39,887 --> 00:19:43,056
I'm going for it! To protect Nezuko!

281
00:19:51,607 --> 00:19:52,608
He...

282
00:20:03,243 --> 00:20:05,370
I see it! The opening thread!

283
00:20:06,079 --> 00:20:07,873
I'm going to beat him here, right now.

284
00:20:08,165 --> 00:20:09,124
Even if...

285
00:20:10,167 --> 00:20:12,461
I'm going down with him...

286
00:20:14,838 --> 00:20:17,424
Nezuko.

287
00:20:19,134 --> 00:20:21,345
Wake up, Nezuko.

288
00:20:22,512 --> 00:20:24,139
Save your brother.

289
00:20:25,098 --> 00:20:27,017
I know you can do it now, Nezuko.

290
00:20:28,644 --> 00:20:29,686
Go for it.

291
00:20:37,027 --> 00:20:39,029
Please, Nezuko.

292
00:20:39,780 --> 00:20:42,157
Otherwise, your brother will die.

293
00:20:46,161 --> 00:20:47,663
Blood Demon Arts.

294
00:20:49,748 --> 00:20:50,958
Exploding Blood!

295
00:21:00,592 --> 00:21:01,593
Impossible!

296
00:21:01,843 --> 00:21:03,303
She burned off my threads!

297
00:21:04,179 --> 00:21:06,598
No one can break

298
00:21:07,182 --> 00:21:10,727
my bond with Nezuko!

299
00:22:54,164 --> 00:22:57,209
How did the Dance of the Fire God
cross my mind?

300
00:22:57,626 --> 00:22:58,835
Thank you, Dad.

301
00:23:00,128 --> 00:23:03,048
Thanks to him, my blade
can cut through the demon's neck.

302
00:23:03,131 --> 00:23:04,341
Thank you too, Nezuko.

303
00:23:05,217 --> 00:23:08,845
This week, I have a Taisho gossip
about the Kamado family.

304
00:23:08,929 --> 00:23:13,141
After the ritual, Mom and Dad
would make us some rice crackers.

305
00:23:14,476 --> 00:23:16,937
When we eat them,
they made loud cracking noises.

306
00:23:17,020 --> 00:23:18,230
Those were good times.

307
00:23:18,730 --> 00:23:19,940
Thank you, Nezuko.

308
00:23:20,023 --> 00:23:21,691
This is no time to relax.

309
00:23:22,943 --> 00:23:25,946
Next, episode 20, "Pretend Family."

310
00:23:26,029 --> 00:23:28,448
I've beaten one of
the Twelve Demon Moons, haven't I?

311
00:23:28,740 --> 00:23:30,325
TO BE CONTINUED

312
00:23:30,408 --> 00:23:31,993
