Granted, the illustrations throughout this series have been great. Koyoharu Gotouge’s artist skills continue to impress me in this volume. Instead, they help give context to his motivations and make me more emotionally invested in his character arc. I appreciate that the moments focused on Iguro don’t distract from the main story. Even while all of the action is taking place in the present-day setting of the story, I found myself being equally invested in Iguro’s backstory. In this volume, a brief portion of the chapters center on the Obanai Iguro, the Snake Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps. In addition to the well-paced story, the mangaka still manages to get audiences emotionally invested in the characters and their backstory. There is a lot going on in this volume, but Koyoharu Gotouge finds a way to make it all flow naturally. Each chapter left my heart pounding with suspense and anticipation. Giving up is not an option as it would be an insult to their fallen comrades. Fortunately, this doesn’t dishearten the Demon Slayers. Meanwhile, Muzan seems to counter nearly all of their moves. The remaining Demon Slayers Corps members use everything they have against Muzan just to survive. The stakes continue to get higher with every chapter in this volume, as it seems no one is truly safe. The pacing of the story in Demon Slayer Volume 22 is fast and intense.
