Just Like the Original!? “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” Buff Nezuko Leaves Tanjiro Saying, “Her Jaw Looks Like a Butt…”

In episode 5 of the TV anime “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Train Arc,” the impressively strong-jawed Nezuko Kamado (voiced by Akari Kitō) from the original manga appears on screen, delivering a striking impact. The unforgettable sight of a muscular, macho Nezuko left many fans unable to stop laughing.

In the bonus segment following the main story of episode 5, Tanjirō Kamado (voiced by Natsuki Hanae) encounters his giant-sized little sister Nezuko in a dream. Nezuko has transformed into a powerfully muscular figure with a prominently cleft chin, and she reassuringly declares, “Big brother, I’ll protect you!” Tanjirō, screaming and bolting awake, sighs in relief saying, “It was just a dream... thank goodness…” while rubbing his sister’s chin next to him, exclaiming, “Her jaw looked just like a butt…”

With the appearance of macho Nezuko in the anime, social media exploded with reactions such as, “Gorilla-macho Nezuko, LOL,” “Never thought I’d see this in the anime…,” and “Who even is this? lol,” giving viewers quite a shock.
