Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Demon Slayer: The Final Choice Rules are cruel, are they too harsh?

What is the final selection?

The final selection is a personnel selection held by the Demon Slayer Corps. The purpose is to select official members for the Demon Slayer Corps. The people who participate in this selection are absolutely Most of them are disciples trained and recommended by the Demon Slayer Cultivators (Inosuke intercepted others halfway, and it was an accident that he was qualified for the special selection). As long as those who participate in the selection stay on Fujirai Mountain for 7 days, they will pass the selection. Become an official member of the Demon Slayer Squad

Although the rules seem simple, it is not easy to complete. After all, many ghosts captured by the Demon Slayer Squad members are imprisoned on Fujirai Mountain. Because wisteria flowers bloom from the mountainside to the bottom of Mount Fuji, they are unable to leave all year round, so they are forced to stay on Mount Fuji. Because of this, their resentment towards the members of the Demon Slayer Corps is even greater than that of ordinary ghosts. It is not easy to survive for seven days on Fujirai Mountain, which is full of ghosts.

The special competition that Tanjiro participated in fully reflects this. Twenty people participated, and five people survived. The chance is only one-quarter, and with such a survival rate, Ubuyashiki Yoshiya who is far away from the base camp also said: There are five people who survived, which is outstanding

Through the words of Ubuyashiki Yoshiya We can find that a quarter of the survival rate in the final selection can even be considered a high survival rate. In the multiple selections before this, the survival rate will only be lower than this

See here Many friends are confused, why did the Ukuyashiki clan choose to set up and be selected in the end, even though they knew that there were many dangers and the survival rate was extremely low? Wouldn't it be better to recruit all the disciples recommended by the trainers into the Demon Slayer Corps? This would not only avoid casualties, but also maximize the expansion of the Demon Slayer Corps. Why is the Demon Slayer Corps set up? This final alternative with a very low survival rate was maintained for a long time because they knew that this alternative was of great significance to both the Demon Slayer Team and the members, and even related to the Demon Slayer Team. The follow-up development of the Demon Slayer Corps ensures the overall level of the Demon Slayer Corps

1 Select elite members

The main components of the Demon Slayer Corps include the Ubuyashiki clan who are responsible for leading the overall situation, the Demon Slayer Corps members who are responsible for charging into battle, Yin is responsible for logistics support and the swordsmith village is responsible for providing Nichirin swords. Each department performs its own duties and jointly maintains the operation of the Demon Slayer Squad. Among them, the members of the Demon Slayer Squad who charge into the battle are the most critical. After all, they They are the main force in destroying ghosts, so the quality of the personnel is directly related to the future path of the Demon Slayers

And the final selection is the final hurdle for selecting people. During the seven days in Fujisei Mountain, these The reserve team members will experience the first time in their lives to kill ghosts. They will kill ghosts alone without the help of others. In the process, some people will die because they cannot bear the fear in their hearts, and some people will die because of lack of strength. were eliminated, and the remaining people among them are basically the best who participated in this selection. Regardless of their mental endurance and overall strength, they are qualified to be members of the Demon Slayer Corps. Just kidding, the young guys will die before they are trained. There are too many. The pillars have been vacant since Purgatory exited. It’s better to have something than nothing. Let’s fight to the death.

These words were what Xiao Banai said after learning that Yu Zhuan Tianyuan was about to retire. , fully reflects the difficult current situation of the Demon Slayer Corps, and also confirms the importance of talents to the Demon Slayer Corps. Even with the cruel elite selection model of final selection, the Demon Slayer Corps still faces heavy casualties and no successors. Human Situation

2 Let the team members overcome fear in the selection process

The final selection process is a trial. It is an advance trial specially organized by the Demon Slayer Team for these candidate members.

Ghosts like flesh and blood, have strong recovery capabilities and strong bodies. They are powerful and quick in reaction. Some have even evolved vampire skills. They are scary and unknown to humans. Therefore, most people will subconsciously have fear when facing ghosts, even the candidate team members, and compared with ordinary people, their fear will be stronger. After all, many of them have had close relatives. The experience of people being brutally killed by ghosts

So this final selection is a test carefully prepared for them by the Demon Slayer Team to overcome their inner fears. In this selection, they will all be able to do it without exception. When encountering ghosts, whether they will be unable to hold the sword in their hands because of fear, or whether they will overcome their fear and successfully kill the ghosts, all this depends on themselves

Summary: For the Demon Slayer Team, this is the most important battle.

The final selection is tantamount to the selection of elite talents. Through extremely strict selection conditions, the most capable people are selected from multiple candidates to become team members. Only in this way can the Demon Slayer Team ensure that the overall level remains unchanged and can it continue to improve upon its original status. Go further and longer on the bumpy and difficult road of demon slaying to stimulate the potential of trainee swordsmen

In addition to contributing elite talents to the Demon Slayer Team, the final selection is also for the candidates who participate in the selection. A trial and ability improvement, many people's potential was stimulated during or after this trial

1 Tanjiro broke through the limit in the final selection

After entering Not long after Fujirai Mountain, Tanjiro met the hand ghost who had a grudge against Nintaki Sakonji. Because of Nintaki Sakonji, the hand ghost was forced to live in Fujirai Mountain for 47 years. During these 47 years, he always resented this man. Ningtaki Sakonji, therefore, regarded the trialists wearing fox masks (the symbol of Ningtaki Sakonji's disciples) as the primary target of attack. Even the powerful Usagi died tragically because he was unable to defeat the hand ghost

< p>Precisely because of the strength of the hand ghost, Tanjiro was at a disadvantage at the beginning of the battle, and due to the special body structure of the hand ghost - countless hands protecting the important neck, Tanjiro's sword could not be used smoothly at all. Killing action, at this critical moment, Tanjiro's potential was stimulated for the first time, and finally successfully broke through the strong defense of the hand ghost through "full concentration of water breathing", and achieved the destruction of ghosts

2 Giyuu was reborn because of the final choice

Unlike Tanjiro, whose potential was stimulated in the trial, Giyuu's potential activation, or the evolution of his consciousness, occurred after the final choice

In that special selection, Giyuu was attacked by ghosts and fell into a coma shortly after entering Fujirai Mountain. When he woke up, the 7-day deadline for the final selection had passed, and he passed without any sense of experience. On the contrary, in this special selection, he killed most of the demons and saved the heroic Qiu Usagi, but he was defeated and died after encountering a powerful hand demon

< p> For such a result, Yiyong has never been able to accept it. In his opinion, the one who died in the other selection should be the incompetent him, not the charging Qiang Rabbit. For this reason, he started to kill ghosts with the guilt of Qiang Rabbit, because this After an experience, Giyu showed unprecedented calmness and calmness during the subsequent demon killing process. Because of this, his status in the Demon Slayer Corps became higher and higher, and eventually became the pinnacle of combat power

Summary: For everyone who participates, the final selection is the last mock test to enter actual combat. In this special selection, many people will break through themselves in the selection and lay the foundation for future growth. Is the final selection system Absolutely correct?

In general, not choosing in the end is beneficial to both the Demon Slayer Team and the candidates themselves, but is this system completely correct? There is an element of chance in the experiment

The final pass condition is that you can survive for 7 days in Fujixi Mountain, which is full of ghosts and is not protected by wisteria flowers. Although this condition can select most of the outstanding team members, but There may also be chance

1. Team members with extremely good luck appear

It cannot be denied that 7 days is a long time, which can allow most team members to successfully face ghosts, but everyone should also know that, The Vine Raid Mountain is very large, and the ghosts' activity time is limited, so it is very likely that some people will not encounter the ghosts within 7 days, or perfectly avoid the ghosts. These team members did not complete the killing but passed the test in a muddle.

Two powerful team members unfortunately died

This is most suitable for Qiang Tu. Qiang Tu and Yiyong participated in the final selection at the same time. Don’t choose Qiang Tu in that game. The most outstanding member of the team killed most of the demons on Fujirai Mountain by himself

Judging from his performance, he definitely has the ability to become a member of the Demon Slayer Team, but such a powerful and A seed player with both faith and belief, but unfortunately fell into the trap due to his encounter with a strong hand ghost and lack of physical strength. It is indeed a pity that the selection process was cruel

The death of Qiang Rabbit mentioned above is actually true. It reflects a problem, that is, the final selection process is too cruel, allowing the team members to enter the Fuji Raid Mountain to kill ghosts without providing any protection during the process. If these candidates want to survive, they can only rely on themselves. If they survive, they will become the Demon Slayer Team. Team members, after death, they are just a pair of bones that no one knows

To live or to die, these are the two choices given to the participants in the end, but is there no third option?

No, in fact the Demon Slayer Squad is completely

You can send several stronger team members to supervise and protect the exam during the selected period. When the participants face life threats, they can help them get out of danger. This will not only improve the survival rate of the participants, but also preserve some physical strength. The seeded player who unfortunately lost due to lack of support

If the Demon Slayer Team had adopted this method, Usagi might not have died in that final round. At this time, he might have become a ghost like Giyuu. Killing the team's pillar

Summary: From the above two points, we can find that the final selection is not perfect, and there is some irrationality behind the current system. Of course, this is not the intention of the Demon Slayer Team. For this reason, after all, the Demon Slayer Corps has a small number of people and a limited scale. These problems greatly limit its ability to hold the final contest. Conclusion

The final contest is a competition for the Demon Slayer Corps to select outstanding talents. Experiment, it cannot be denied that this experiment has shortcomings. Accidentality and excessive cruelty are the disadvantages of this experiment. However, this is the best method that the Demon Slayer Corps can do to select talents. For the future of the Demon Slayer Corps, for The growth of swordsmen is ultimately indispensable.
