I just love how the main characters are such good kids. Simple, nice, not bratty or conceited.
That's one of my favorite things about anime really. It's seems like most of the kid characters at least try to be good people. I was just having to explain this to some family last weekend. I've got one little cousin who's into anime and also really shy and when she's not around they talk about her like she's some weird freak. They were saying she should watch "normal" shows, so I had to educate them a bit that anime is full of good stuff for kids. Demon Slayer funny enough is her favorite show, and it's full of work hard to earn what you want, do the right thing, fight for those you care about, etc. Waaay better than the awful western stuff aimed at that group.
Right? I absolutely love how in that story, the love between the boy and his sister is a central point. it's so adorable how he interacts with his little sister, who is basically "sick".
Funny enough, that should be a message normally SJW type scream about supporting; supportive and loving relationships and understanding towards people who are disabled/ill/have issues.
Also, it's so pretty. No noodle limbs, no intentionally repulsive art style.
The patterns and colours of the clothes are so gorgeous. All the characters have their personal pattern/colour combos. I totally get why it appeals to young girls.
(it's also marketing genius, so much room for subtle and everyday-life-compatible merch)
I saw some of the merch in person too, you're spot on with that. Cousin was wearing a Zenitsu hoodie, which to generally everyone is a colorful yellow sweatshirt. Although I'm pretty sure I made her day when the first thing I said was "Zenitsu". That wasn't all of it either, so if one kid is any indication they made some good money off selling that stuff at Christmas.
That's so cute, she sounds like a good kid. Back in school I was thretened by some other girl for being a weeb shit (she wanted to "kick my ass"), so I guess it's good at least the merch is less cringe now.
My friend saw some kid on a beach wearing a shirt that had the main dude's pattern. It was cool, weirdo took a sneaky photo too. :D
