I haven't been that hyped during an episode since Kirito went Starburst Stream

I laughed harder than it was probably worth.

Inosuke is definitely my favorite character.

I really like his voice acting too. He makes good reaction sounds.

  Spoiler:  
Tanjiro and his father have a burned head in the same place. I'm guessing that that's a connection to Hi no Kami.

As said before, he solved his problem, quickly and efficiently. ;)

Yeah.

  Spoiler:  
I didn't think about the character ramifications of Nezuko being able to explode blood. It seems tenuous, but I suppose everything is a conscious choice so it's probably the case that her being able to explode blood is symbolic of her disdain for it.
it would be really nice if she could explode blood while it was still inside the body but of course that's not the case. It's easily explainable by needing gaseous oxygen, so that's fine.
I initially thought it was only her blood that she could explode and that she was able to break the threads around Tanjiro because she was above them and her blood flowed down on them, but instead I guess it makes more sense that the blood the demon put into the threads was what she exploded.

I also didn't think about Nezuko having to sleep for possibly years after this. That seems plausible.

Yeah, I think some of his ideas are not 100% based in what we know at this point from the anime only (he might've read the manga, so maybe he based it on that as well) and they seem to be guesses, but they are educated guesses, so they might as well be correct.

Hm, ok.

I like Kocho.

next episode:
  Spoiler:  
"against corps rules". Hmmmmmmm. Is Nezuko in trouble? No, I don't think so, because Tomioka or whatever--Tapioca. he's Tapioca now--was the one who discovered Tanjiro in the first episode and decided not to kill Nezuko. So who's breaking the rules? Inosuke? Zenitsu?

It's the next episode title. 'tairitsu ihan'--隊律違反 I assume, based on the translation--after taisho koso-koso uwasabanashi
