Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 13 - Something More Important Than Life - full transcript

Every time Kyogai, the master of house, plays his tsuzumi, the room spins and Tanjiro struggles. Debilitated by the fractured bones he sustained in his previous battle, Tanjiro tries to ...

You have come so far.

You can do it.

Be it today

or the days ahead.

No matter how tough it gets,

I'll never give up!

Where are you, Tanjiro?

This uncomfortable sound keeps ringing.

Please be safe, Tanjiro.

Hey, Mr. Zenitsu.

Are we running in circles?

I know, right? That's what I thought too!

You're good, Shoichi.

You're so reliable.

Can you go and check that room?

What? I know. Don't look at me like that!

I'll check it out myself.

It's empty.

Let's walk this way then.

Tanjiro, come out now.

The room actually rotated!

I can do this.

I can definitely do this.

I'm a guy who can complete my mission.

I don't care if I break my bones.

I can do this.

I can fight.

I'll let you see that I'm still amazing
even with a bone fracture.

This is bad.

Nothing has changed.

Raising my spirits alone
won't change anything.

Think.

I need to raise my spirits
and think simultaneously.

Think.

That was close.

That was really close just now.

Damn it.

You're so annoying.

I want to eat the rare blood now.

I don't have time to think at all.

What's your name?

Kyogai.

Kyogai.

Kiyoshi...

I won't surrender the rare blood.

I won't lose hope.

I won't give up!

You should give up.

If I can get my hands on the rare blood,

I can return to Twelve Demon Moons.

You should give up.

How boring.

What you wrote is so boring.

All these papers are as good as trash.

Not wonderful, not dreamy,
and not jaw-dropping.

You shouldn't write again.

If you write,
you'll only waste paper and ink.

You don't leave the house
during the daytime recently.

That's exactly why
you've become so boring.

Otherwise, you can play the drums for fun

since you're stuck in the house.

Come to think of it,

your drumming skill isn't good enough
for you to teach others too.

Disappear, you filthy bugs!

Rapid Drumming!

Can he beat the drums at a quicker pace?

I'm getting so dizzy.

This speed of rotation is bad.

What a spectacular move.

The number of claws increased
from three to five.

I get it now.

Thank goodness, I purposely avoided
from stepping on the papers.

I know the way to move and breathe
without hurting my body.

I need to breathe lightly and quickly.

Through this way of breathing,

it will strengthen the muscles
surrounding my fractured leg.

Before the claw attacks,

there's a rotten smell.

The claw attacks are coming.

Above.

Left.

Right.

Behind.

He dodged all my attacks.

Total Concentration Breathing.

Breath of Water.

Ninth Form.

Splashing Water Flow Turbulent.

When I land, the landing area
must be as small as possible.

He can handle the rotation of this room.

Go. Rush inside.

Get within attack range.

Move forward.

Go in front of him.

I see the opening thread.

Kyogai!

Your Blood Demon Art is really amazing.

It hurts!

I accidentally took a deep breath.

I'm the eldest son.

Brat.

Answer me.

Is my Blood Demon Art really amazing?

It's really amazing, but...

killing humans is unforgivable.

I see.

Right, I need to take his blood sample.

I got his blood.

After it pierces through,
it will extract the blood automatically.

I can't believe it worked.

Yushiro's skill is so impressive.

A cat?

You're going to help me
deliver this to Ms. Tamayo, right?

You're the best. Thank you.

It's done.

Okay, be careful on the road.

I heard it's Yushiro's spell.

Nobody can see the cat
before the meow sound.

After we hear the meow again,
it'll disappear.

So it's true.

I need to go find the other kids.

My writings.

What you wrote is so boring.

All these papers are as good as trash.

Not wonderful, not dreamy,
and not jaw-dropping.

They aren't trash.

At least to that brat,

they are not something to be stepped on.

Rest in peace.

My Blood Demon Art and drumming

are recognized.

Kiyoshi! Teruko!

Kiyoshi! Teruko!

Kiyoshi! Teruko!

Mr. Tanjiro.

Why did you throw things at me?

I'm sorry.

The drumming stopped so we were confused.

I see.

But thank goodness, you guys are okay.

You did your best.

Kiyoshi too.

All right, let's go outside.

Come up. I'll piggyback you.

Is your leg okay?

Yes.

Hang in there, just for a little longer.

I can smell Zenitsu and Shoichi.

They went out.

Both of them are okay.

It's the smell of blood.

What's wrong?

Nothing. Let's hurry.

Scat!

Draw your sword and fight.

You coward!

Tanjiro.

I protected your box

because you said it before

that this is more important

than your life.

I...

I have always had good ears.

I can hear people talking
when I'm asleep sometimes.

It terrifies me.

The demon's voice vanished.

Tanjiro.

You defeated the demon, didn't you?

Other than Tanjiro and the others,

there's a set
of weird and noisy footsteps.

Mr. Zenitsu!

Mr. Zenitsu!

Thank goodness.

Are you okay?

When the room rotated,

we were flung out with full force

and fell from the third floor.

Is that so?

You protected me, so I wasn't injured.

That's great.

But why are you crying your eyes out?

I understand now!

I hit my head on the ground!

Yes.

Am I going to die?

Am I dying?

I think I'm feeling dizzy.

What's that?

Rushing in like a boar!

It appeared again!

Monster boar!

I smell a demon.

That guy.

I only realized after hearing his voice.

He's the fifth survivor.

During the Final Selection,

he was the earliest to go up the mountain.

He also went down the mountain earliest.

What an impatient guy!

I found you.

Stop it!

What?

What are you doing?

Scat now!

I'm Zenitsu Agatsuma.

Like you, I'm also a member
of Demon Slayer Corps.

Demon Slayer Corps?

You should know this then.

That thing must be disposed of.

Hurry now, get out of the way.

I won't!

-This belongs to Tanjiro.
-Don't dillydally!

Otherwise, I'll dispose of you
together with the box.

Get out of the way!

Damn you.

This box...

I won't let you touch this box.

It's Tanjiro's most precious thing.

Hey, what are you saying?

There's a demon inside this box.

Don't you know that?

I knew that right from the start!

I know he has been carrying a demon

because a human's sound
is totally different from a demon's.

But

from Tanjiro, I heard a gentle voice
that can make anyone cry.

It's a gentle voice
I have never heard before.

Every living thing will make sounds.

They will make many sounds.

Breathing sounds.

Heartbeat sounds.

Blood flow sounds.

If I focus on hearing those sounds,

I can hear their inner thoughts.

But I'm always deceived.

I only believe someone
I want to believe in.

As a member of Demon Slayer Corps,
Tanjiro carried a demon to work.

But he must have his own reason.

I believe it's a reason I can accept.

I...

I want to ask Tanjiro myself.

So, you should move aside!

Let go of me!

Aren't you tired of this?

I won't let you touch that box.

That's Tanjiro's most precious thing.

Before he comes back,
I won't let you touch it!

Damn you.

Scat!

I won't!

Scat!

Draw your sword and fight.

You coward!

Tanjiro.

I protected your box

because you said it before

that this is more important

than your life.

You sure are good at talking.

Why don't you draw your sword?

Since you're also from Demon Slayer Corps,
let's have a duel.

If you don't want to fight,
get out of the way now!

Move it!

Scat!

Whatever.

If you won't get out of the way,

I'll pierce you and the box together.

Stop it!

Stop it!

Making the room rotate then attack.

What an impressive Blood Demon Art.

The more the demons resemble Kibutsuji,
the more powerful their Blood Demon Arts.

Can I really defeat them?

Here's a little gossip
from the Taisho era.

The demon, Kyogai,
who lives inside the courtyard.

I heard he loves
Legend of the Eight Samurai.

He also wrote his own legendary stories.

Now isn't the time to be discouraged.

Next, episode 14, "The House
with the Wisteria Family Crest."

I'll do my best!

It hurts so much!

I forgot I still have a bone fracture.
