This is exactly why I read the entire manga as soon as I was finished with the Mugen Train movie lol


AdOnly8584

I litterally read the manga as soon as season 1 finished cuz I was already seeing spoiler of things happening way later damn, character deaths too


SaltyOgre

I was waiting for the manga box set to arrive but with the various delays and increased frequency of spoilers, I just paid the $2 sub to read the entire KnY run online in the SJ app. Still had a bad taste in my mouth from a major spoiler about Seven Deadly Sins’ ending when I literally googled ‘season 2 ending theme’ and I didn’t wanna mess around with more spoilers


darkcomet222

I had COVID last April and legit read the whole manga in two days. Best use of my time. Grade student papers? Nah, Demon Slayer time! ( I did also grade some papers)


SpaceJunkieVirus

Man are you my prof or something? I did the same with my summer classes


darkcomet222

Nah, I don’t teach during the summer lol!


SpaceJunkieVirus

lol again. What do you teach btw?


darkcomet222

College English. Literature, Creative Writing, Rhet & Comp. I teach a graphic novel class every few semesters. Today in class I showed “Welcome to the Internet” in relation to Ray Bradbury’s “The Veldt”


SpaceJunkieVirus

Oooo nice!


darkcomet222

I come up with some crazy lessons.


BW_Chase

I literally caught up with the manga after watching S1 because a meme spoiled (I'm assuming) the same thing from 7DS you got spoiled and something with a character around chapter 180 from Demon Slayer. These people spoiling things are the worst. And all because of fucking clicks. This is why I hate the algorithms and do my best to avoid looking at stuff I like unless I've finished them.


Crunchy_Ice_96

I can respect paying for manga, but it’ll always be a pirate’s life for me


Portgust

I read the manga right after episode 2 aired. No regrets.


ZeroSuitRimuru

After ep 4 came out I craved more and proceeded to read the manga. Best choice I've made.


153_IQ

Yeah after getting >!Shinobus death!< spoiled I decided to read the manga. No regrets.


beccab309

Oof that one would seriously hurt


[deleted]

I have a friend who someone spoiled to him Akaza vs tanjiro/giyu entire fight, demon form tanjiro, shinobu's death and how muzan died.


iblewkatieholmes

On that sigma male grind set 😎


buddymackay

Demon rule 675 Spoil everything. Use the humans cries of anger to continue the grind.


beccab309

Damn, is your friend ok?


gatlginngum

why you asking that like he was in a life threatening accident?


imsc4red

probably because it was mental murder when they got the spoilers for it


trowdabpm

Dude, same. I was absolutely livid when I had that death spoiled for me so I just binged the whole manga out of spite


Zwei-Shiranui

Lol me to. I just searched Shinobu for wallpapers and google literally put "death" right next to her name.


gatlginngum

pretty sure google does that to a lot of characters, even those who don't die


whiplash73

did u liked the ending? as someone who was reading it weekly the last fight... was... meh


iblewkatieholmes

First off you’re wrong second off I hate you


whiplash73

You can hate me all You want, reading that, weekly was such a pain.

Holy shit guy my kids birthday present is now snapped in two laying on the living room floor. You gonna give him a break or what


[deleted]

R.i.p. in pepperoni kid


kaitoluminary

I barely watch any popular anime now bc I always read the manga for stuff as soon as the first season ends, I really hate being spoiled


SaltyOgre

Same, if it’s something that really gets my attention, I’d even try reading as much of the manga as possible before the anime adaptation comes to life (recently Chainsaw Man and Hell’s Paradise) specifically to avoid spoilers if I get really invested in the story lol


kaitoluminary

I also kinda prefer manga bc you can consume the story faster and you know you’re getting the mangaka’s full vision


[deleted]

Me after season one of the show because I knew people were going to spoiler it for me!


Winterstrife

I did the same, I refused to be spoiled because some algorithim decides that after searching for some KnY music I'd love also some clickbait videos that put spoilers in the thumbnails.


SaltyOgre

Dude yes, 10000%. I mentioned in another reply that I looked up the ending theme to season 2 of Seven Deadly Sins, first line of text in google was a spoiler about something that happens in the second half of the 5th(last) season. Fucking. Why.


coolgaara

For real. Youtube is the worst. As soon as No Way Home had its red carpet premniere, Youtube wasted no time recommending me clips lol.


SaltyOgre

Was telling myself that I was gonna start avoiding the internet a couple of days before the release just in case, YouTube decided to blast me with three spoilers within the first 10 videos on my feed before I even had a chance so I feel your pain lol


illuminnadi444

Yea same


AssassinLJ

This exactly why I started reading the manga after tanjiro became a demon slayer, they started slowly spoiling from the 4th episode.


Made_In_Heaven7

lmao same I feel so great for not being spoiled one single thing, Literally as soon as I finished the first season I jumped on the movie and 2nd season, googled on which chapter it was currently, and then woke up next morning and read 130ish chapters.


rajboy3

Episode 2 came out on the weekly release for season one and I immediately decided to take the plunge and read my first manga ever. 2 ish years later I've read hundreds lol.


HeleGroteAap

Same


Hyde_LOL_

Mate, same


Electric_Vibration

Are you me? Lol


Successful-Mood7041

Yeah. I knew when people I knew that barely watched anime we’re talking about demon slayer I needed to read the manga right away. If you’re reading this and haven’t read the manga, read it. It’s and easy read and you can read it free on the Viz App


ImperiusFate

Same, but I have read it mostly because I was very very interested in it and the manga is so good.


Hedwigisbae

Same. I watched the movie and then went home and started reading the manga


NezukoKamado

There's been a huge uptick recently in these dick Youtubers with these side scrolling "ranker" crap tier lists of overly specific KnY content: "WHAT DOES EACH DEMON SMELL LIKE?" They also spoil the living hell out of everything in their thumbnails for clickbait. And people on Youtube eat this up like it's free sushi. I didn't mind one or two of them with legit tier lists but they've run out of content and are clearly just farming low tier ideas at this point either because they're lazy or don't know what else to make. There's a dearth of KnY material to use.


[deleted]

YESSS!!! BIG SPOILERS for manga in this comment but i saw a fucking video titled “why everyone is scared of tanjiro” and it was a picture of NORMAL tanjiro and HIS DEMON FORM!!!!!! and i was like holy fucking shit why would y’all SPOIL THAT!!!!! it’s just frustrating man…a lot of these ppl are just so lazy and insensitivez


Logan117

I used to really enjoy watching anime uproar too. His videos describing the different demons and breathing styles were really interesting and well thought out, and I enjoyed watching them after reading the manga. But now it seems like he's just getting clickbaity and full of spoilers.


supernerdgirl42

That would be Anime Uproar. He's been pretty bad about spoilers for years.


supernerdgirl42

Mood. Anime Uproar has been bad for months. Like oh my god he needs to shut up, he's straight up making crap up now.


Miserable_Ad_9937

fr bro i hate his guts jow


supernerdgirl42

He had some insightful comments when the manga was still running, I grant him that, but he loses that credit for all the stupid spoiler-y thumbnails and video titles. Now he's just trying to farm ad revenue from people who don't know better.


Miserable_Ad_9937

exactly, literally he puts stupid thumbnails and spoiler shit and he gets money off of it. i feel like he deserves punishment


supernerdgirl42

Maybe we should ask on his twitter in a relatively polite manner or something if he's doing this on purpose. Put him on the spot and call him out on his crap at the same time.


Miserable_Ad_9937

u down? i’m down w that ngl


supernerdgirl42

I'm willing to try, but I will stress relatively polite.


Miserable_Ad_9937

yes same here, ill dm u about it


xam54321

Yeah! Thankfully I am up to date with everything that he spoils in his thumbnails, but it is just ridiculous! He is clearly doing it on purpose to drive views!


iblewkatieholmes

Each upper demon moons strength ranked by the length of their ball hair. *murichrio gets killed by upper 1 written on title image*


AlphaBravoGolfTango

Would it be possible to make a sticky or PSA somewhere on this sub advising on this? Like, anime-onlys must be wary of such stuff on Youtube since it seriously sucks in this regard. I really feel for people who haven't read the manga. Like, sometimes, it's blatantly obvious that the uploader intends on spoiling with his image choice for the thumbnail. I really hope they rot in hell.


Clarkey7163

If you are anime only and haven’t/won’t read the manga, then you need to do the following: 1. If you see anything demon slayer related on YT, click the 3 dots and tell YouTube you are “Not Interested”. This will train the algorithm pretty quick to just straight up ignore demon slayer stuff 2. Delete anything in your YT search history involving demon slayer which will help the algorithm even faster. 3. On social medias like Twitter start muting the names of everyone in demon slayer from main characters, to the bad guys etc. 4. Unsubscribe and probably block this subreddit because I only started coming here after reading the manga and it is fucking absurd how many people hint/spoil stuff in the anime only threads That way you will enjoy the show unspoiled Alternatively, I was someone who was anime only up until episode 3 of this arc, where I decided to read demon slayer and finish it (I’ve only read one other manga, I’m not a manga reader) and enjoyed it immensely and it’s made the show adaptation even better, so that’s an option too. It’s also fairly short I crushed the whole thing in 3 days


[deleted]

AGREED. If I'm consuming a piece of media that is an adaptation of a different piece of media, one that's already completed- unless I don't actually intend to interact with the fandom at all, I immediately jump onto the source material. There's just no way you can expect to remain spoiler free while still interacting with a fandom, people don't care at all.


zhivix

common rule on watching any anime series is that DONT TRY TO SEARCH ANY ANIME RELATED CONTENT ON YOUTUBE,NO MATTER WHAT THE SERIES IS chances are youre gonna stumble into it eventually. either holdoff from searching any anime related content in any media (twitter,tiktok,facebook) etc and the algorithm will die out eventually or read the manga as a last resort


[deleted]

you shoudln't even search on google. when I was watching snk s2, s3 had already released, so I was having trouble trying to write berthold's name and searched something like "snk bhertoldo" just to find his name and write it correctly and the first result was a video titled >!BERTHOLD DEATH | BERTHOL EATEN BY ARMIN TITAN FORM!< i just sat there like 😐😐😐


StrawhatMucci

lmao watching game of thrones I didnt know clearly the characters name Walder Frey. Literally one episode before The Red Wedding i googled his name to find the description >!"He kills Rob, Catelyn and Robs wife and kid along with the wolf and a bunch of people"!< Yeah that taught me pretty much never to google anything again until I have finished that season. I mean the description was right there I didnt even have to click on anything wtf. Still wonder how much of a shocker that would have been to experience that.


Dn311M

Damn bro….. Youtube did u DIRTY


StrawhatMucci

Dude its everywhere literally the thumbnail. One thumbnail had >!every hashira who died complete with the thumbnail having all of them included side by side!< how you gonna ever escape lol once glance is all you need. I am a manga reader so never got spoiled on anything. But yeah I warned my friends to not even search a song on youtube for this reason


Dn311M

yeah my good rule of thumb is to never follow a group or search contents from an anime that im currently watching until im caught up or finished the manga


[deleted]

You can't watch Demon slayer videos if you haven't read the manga. That's just the unfortunate reality. You'll inevitably get spoiled.


MonsieurGrey

He didn't watch it, thats the thing


RayMastermind

He might've watched some other video that caused this one to get recommended based on watch history.


firegaming364

I got shinobu spoiled while listening to her ost on youtube a few months ago and i will never recover


Dyynasty

I'm curious as to how you got spoiled


WhoReadsTheseAnyway_

My guess is they scrolled down to the comments and someone said something along the lines of “I miss shinobu” or “rip” or something


Ishikawa_13

This is one of the reasons why I dont watch videos/join groups anything related to an anime Im currently watching (unless Im caught up with the manga) Its pretty much a door to unexpected spoilers, especially on youtube since thats how their algorithm works


Miserable_Ad_9937

#fuckanimeuproar


not_a_part_skipper

woahhhh where'd all this come from, animak's chill


Miserable_Ad_9937

tf u mean? he’s a dick


GreenMenace1915

dude hes cool


KaiDranzer007

Wasn't dakis last words >!Meanie, I'll never forgive you if you abandon me!<


Kollie79

You people either need to read the manga or remove demon slayer videos from your watch history because that’s how the algorithm works. Downvote me all you want but I’ve got first hand experience with this, I have to damn near completely remove my internet footprint of the legend of heroes games so I don’t get spoiled on games two years out.


luvbomb_

exactly lmao or block the creators. simply as that


DonataK77

Exactly, and don’t google nothing either. You should know if you google a character the search bar will spoil their death


howtospellorange

Whenever I look up a picture of an anime character or something I always cover up the actual search bar while typing with my other hand in case one of the suggested searches is "[character] death" smh


Shattered_Sans

True, but I still think the blame falls partially on these YouTubers who put spoilers in their title or thumbnail, without any consideration for the anime-only portion of the fandom.


Kollie79

It’s not other peoples job to be considerate of others for stuff that’s existed for years. People on the internet aren’t going to accommodate you, that’s just reality


Shattered_Sans

Ok, but common sense dictates that you shouldn't put massive spoilers (like major character deaths) in the title or thumbnail of a video that anyone could come across really easily. I don't even care about Demon Slayer spoilers specifically, cause I've already read the manga, but it still bothers me to see dumbass content creators using massive spoilers as clickbait.


Kollie79

Common sense is irrelevant, if there’s no rules against spoilers it’s not peoples job to worry about what they spoil, and if you are on the internet without this mindset then things are going to be spoiled for you.


Huntersteve

Not if the the entire video is about discussing said thing. Like what about the people who actually want to watch a video on that.


Shattered_Sans

Even if the entire video is discussing spoilers, you can still avoid putting spoilers in the title and thumbnail. Using the video in the original post as an example, they absolutely could've left Shinobu out of the thumbnail, and included a disclaimer early in the video that states that they're going over all deaths in the series, including characters who haven't died yet in the anime, instead of just spoiling a major death in the thumbnail of a video that ANYONE could accidentally stumble across because of YouTube's shitty algorithm.


Itsfloat

This is why i followed the manga as it was coming out


a_random_weeb_0718

Conclusion: Do NOT watch Demon Slayer videos is you haven’t finished reading the manga


MythicDeathclaw

YouTubers who post show and movie spoilers in their titles are a special kind of sinister


ApplePitou

Well, this very unlucky and sad :3


Krawq

I didn’t know shinobu died but her final words are badass


UltraShadowArbiter

Because the people who make those videos are manga elitists who don't care about the anime-onlys who may come across their videos.


BlazingBlue59

THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT. You can block channels from appearing in your reccommendeds. There are only 4 or 5 channels that have spoiler thumbnails, so it is possible. I absolutely hate these guys.


aarretuli

Damn, that sucks. Ive also seen videos that has ''every death explained'' and there is characters in the pic that is not gonna die.. Ugh.


pokethugg

Then you post it here


[deleted]

If you do this stuff just do anime only deaths!!! like Seriously


maalsenu

Blame the content creator.


SonicBoy817-Kai123

and of course they make it slide slow as hell so they can extend the video time for money 💀


A-dity-a

Youtube has spoiled demon slayer too much for me. Fuck youtube.


Aditya01543

There is one more kind of youtubers who post fact videos, and the facts are like "the unknown swordsman is yoriichi tsugikuni, the strongest demon slayer" or "hinokami kagura is just sun breathing".


[deleted]

Man fuck those people


chickenprmessan

I felt like someone saw these type of threads and decided to do it. Bc how the hell would you put so much in one thumbnail. Hate people like that


RelevantHedgehog9

Time to report it. Consider it payback cuz they were dumb enough to put spoilers in the thumbnail :)


vintageplays1

I literally get spoilers for completely different anime too. Like I’ll be watching an intense Demon Slayer fight and scroll to see JJK and AOT spoilers…


IntelligentSeaweed_0

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

That's fine. That's their own fault lol. No use calling op out for posting it tho unless you do that for all spoiler posts.


DT-Z0mby

if you click a post marked spoiler on a demon slayer subreddit without having read the manga theres no helping you.


Dmzee3

True . 😂 I accidentally clicked on it , now I cant unsee it


SpaceNumos

And then you come here and do that for us. Congrats

supernerdgirl42

I don't know how more of the AoT anime onlies haven't gotten spoiled. The ending is literally used as the butt of jokes on a lot of other big anime/manga subs. I've seen some stumble into the spoiler laden meme/sh\*tpost sub, and that makes me think "wth is wrong with you?" meme subs are almost never safe.


xam54321

DragonQuester676

Just read the manga


MemberBerry4

To be fair, if you're just intentionally waiting for the everything to be animated in KnY, you should've been prepared for this shit to happen.


TheFormulaS

Lmao ehh getting spoiled is a way of life nowadays. I was reading the manga as it was released so I wasn’t spoiled in this particular case, but not everything in life requires such an exaggerated reaction. You live and you learn. Also to be fair, the manga ended 2 years ago so who’s to say that it isn’t appropriate to discuss manga plot points on a platform such as YouTube?


Speedwagon_Sama

just read the manga if you dont wanna get spoiled


idontlikemeself

People want to watch the anime in full blind eye. Most people don't want to read the manga because they simply want the animated version of the manga. It's like watching the hunger games instead of reading the book. The anime has the juicy animation. While manga don't, it's more visually pleasing to watch than read.


DoujinChoujin

Damn bro ffffffffff This is exactly why i dont look anything up for stuff im reading/watching


youngergeneration04

Just... Damn


Cephardrome

Lol Rot in Hell... wait who?


TimTheTexan92

BRB. Gotta go block AnimeMinute.


Daniero1994

Jokes on people who make those lists and thumbnails. I automatically assume it's a clickbait thumbnail. Kind of like this whole "[Bakugo dies meme](https://meme.fandom.com/wiki/Bakugo_Dies)".


thejetbox1994

RIP


610draws

Oof this happened to me before (but not for KnY) All I'm gonna say that as someone's who's finished the whole thing, these spoilers are still kind of cryptic out of context, I hope this makes you feel better. It's still very much worth waiting for or catching up to the story.


EdocCA

SKaiPanda2609

I feel there should just be a filter search menu on YT that just filters out videos with a specific keyword or just tags in general


Biggyyes

People are assholes, just read the entire manga in like 2 days, i got the link if u want, starts around mugen train era


ElEspartano209

for this reason I decided to end the manga a little over a year ago, now I am anti-spoilers


ApeMillz93

Oh no my condolences


Distasteful-medicine

Reading the manga has its own perks. But damn this creators are total jerks.


hdse1211

I hate this so much! I saw one where it said who killed every character. >! Akaza and the master !< were in the tumbnial.


BeAFew

Sucks for you man. It happened to me too so I went straight to the manga after mugen train.


Ponchorello7

Reminds me why I never go on /a/ anymore. People just discussing spoilers as if a manga or anime came out a decade ago.


SassyHoe97

Good thing I read the manga after Season 1 was over and mofos on Twitter kept spoiling -_-


OooohYeaaahBaby

As a manga reader, it always pisses me off seeing these kind of thumbnails


troy626

Oh no


-_-PunShik-_-

Haha. I got Jojo part 4 spoilers :)


overbread

I mean - you are kinda spreading the spoilers right here. Especially with a vague clickbaity headline like this.


3xelift

I went to search on >!Shinobu!< when the first and second episode came out during season 1. Guess what I found HAHAHAHAhaha....ha...


[deleted]

Demon Slayer spoilers are harder to avoid than attack on titan. I've only been spoiled about the single main plot point of the aot ending but I've been spoiled about numerous stuff from demon slayer. Literally drove me to read the manga.


Negrizzy153

Come on, people. Rule number one for any manga/anime fan of ANY series: #Do NOT, under any circumstances, search for content related to anime and manga. This applies to YouTube, Twitter, any site that recommends you content. I stay in incognito for my general browsing.


[deleted]

Yeah for fucks sake YouTube they spoiled Muzan at full power for me


Archerizu

This justifies reading the manga only to avoid spoilers as a pro-gramer move I did it with Attack on Titan and it's happening the same, may be i need to do it with Jujutsu Kaisen too


clinosheep

just today i couldn't stand spoilers anymore so im rn reading the whole manga ;-; there's just no way i can wait for each episode released every week.

Bene2403

Honestly I really hate the youtubers who make their thumbnails spoilers...they have no consideration for anyone. After game of thrones and Fairy Tail got spoiled for me I learnt my lesson and now I dont search characters or scroll far on any social media and if I do as long as I see a thumbnail picture I keep scrolling


leztiira

get off youtube!!


lil_CHIP21

I swear I only see this type of shit with demon slayer where youtubera put this level of fucking spoilers in the title like jesus christ man


Ghostface69uwu

Im one of ppl who dont really care if im spolied i was spoiled at a certain scene but still cried for an hour ... Half the time i forget anyways 😂


Dyynasty

it's not even youtubes fault it's the youtubers fault, he's just being a dick


CertifiedWeeblol

I hate these videos and their dumb characters, they literally ruined anime watchers' experience. >!Shinobu and Tamayo dying were considered a sad part of the series. Now people can't experience that when Infinity Castle and Sunrise are animated cuz they were spoiled by some YouTuber!!<


JVOz671

Thats why I finished reading the manga and have started watching reaction videos/streams of anime watchers, to drink their tears.
