When animation carries the argument
Demon Slayer rankings admit something most lists won't: presentation is a stat. Rengoku's S-tier seat was earned in one movie; Zenitsu oscillates between F (the screaming) and S (the Thunderclap frames) depending on which clip you saw last. Hashira rankings track screen time as much as strength — Gyomei polls top on feats nobody actually watched. On the demon side, Upper Moons rank almost purely on tragedy quality: Akaza's backstory bought him a tier no kill count could.
