I can’t blame you. There definitely has been shounen shows that I’ve had to drop because the story was unenticing.
As OP as Tanjiro is, I like how it still feels like he is still outclassed by the Hashira and the Upper Demons. Though I suspect Tanjiro will keep becoming more and more OP.
It is a bit funny that the consequences are becoming less and less with each Upper Demon. First Rengoku dies, then Tengen is severely injured, but this time it’s only nameless characters that suffer serious loss. I somewhat sympathize with the author, because making a token sacrifice in each arc would itself be repetitive.
However, Nezuko surviving the sun felt like a step too far. It reminded me that Tanjiro hasn’t lost anything personally significant since the beginning of the series (that I recall). The show set up a nice moment where Nezuko sacrifices herself and Tanjiro would have to reevaluate his ambitions. This would be an actual loss for Tanjiro, but nope. Perhaps that is path the author would have gone down if he was given free rein.
