Don’t be ashamed. The ones who are alive are the winners. Don’t misjudge your chance.Tengen Uzui
https://www.tiktok.com/@divx0919_beta01/video/7377312571046530322These words were said by Tengen Uzui to Tanjiro and Inosuke, who had infiltrated the red-light district.
Judging that the demon lurking there was too strong and that Tanjiro and Inosuke lacked the ability to handle it, he ordered them to withdraw.
However, since Zenitsu, who had infiltrated with them, had gone missing, Tanjiro was about to object.
That’s when Uzui said this.
The line is likely tied to his background as a former shinobi who was raised to put fighting above all else.
It’s a phrase filled with kindness—essentially, he’s telling them, “Don’t die.”
It’s people’s feelings that are eternal and indestructible.Ubuyashiki Kagaya
@lad2d Ubuyashiki Kagaya (Oyakata-sama) vs Muzan #kimetsunoyaiba#season4kny#anime#demonslayer

These are the words spoken by Kagaya Ubuyashiki, the head of the Demon Slayer Corps, to his archenemy Muzan Kibutsuji.
Muzan seeks to remain unchanged in a perfect form forever—essentially, to obtain an immortal body—but Kagaya firmly rejects the notion that eternity means becoming immortal.
He says that true eternity lies in the feelings of people that are passed down and never fade, even across long stretches of time, and he adds that the very existence of the Demon Slayer Corps proves this.
It’s a standout line that highlights the clash between the leaders of the Demon Slayers and the demons in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.
Even if it hurts or is painful, don’t run away to the easier path.

♪ Original song – p – p
While fighting the spiders on Mount Natagumo, Zenitsu is injected with poison and his body grows weaker until he can no longer move.
In that moment, he recalls the words his master—Grandpa—gave him and murmurs, “If I give up, Grandpa will smack me,” as he uses his breathing to try to slow the spread of the poison even a little.
During this battle, Zenitsu remembers many events from his training days.
Seeing this, you can understand Zenitsu’s feelings and what he carries inside.
No matter how much you knock on someone else’s heart, you can’t change another person. That’s why you always have to change yourself. There’s surely no other way to change a world that doesn’t go the way you want.Yoichi Isagi
This line was born as he struggled with his teammate Shouei Barou’s uncooperative play and tried to find a way to make Barou work within the team.
In a harsh environment where “once you lose, it’s over,” you can’t afford to be pessimistic no matter how unfavorable the situation.
It was also a scene that made readers happy to see Yoichi Isagi—who used to be a bit timid—gradually become more positive.
That mindset of “I have to change myself!” is something we can apply to our everyday lives as well.
Spin it cleanly up to 11,000. Go win.Bunta Fujiwara
This is one of the famous quotes from Initial D.
During a downhill battle, the engine in the AE86 (Hachiroku) Toyota Trueno driven by the protagonist, Takumi Fujiwara, blew up.
His father, Bunta, swapped in a new engine, but Takumi said it was hard to drive because the rev characteristics were different.
So they changed out the tachometer and other gauges, and there’s a scene where he asks up to what RPM he should rev the engine.
Of course, he goes on to win the battle, and afterward he comments that setting it to 11,000 RPM made it easier to drive.
By the way, his opponent was also an AE86, but turbocharged.
If there’s a next time, it might be good to try changing the way you live.Ryomen Sukuna
These are the words Zen’in Toji speaks, facing death after losing to Gojo Satoru.
Having lived trusting only his own strength and feeling isolated, his human side peeks through as he wonders about walking a different path.
It’s a scene that conveys deep inner conflict and his feelings for his beloved son.
If he were to live again, he might even have imagined a life as a jujutsu sorcerer like his son.
The lines carry a profound meaning that lets us sense the loneliness and gentleness hidden behind Toji Zen’in’s strength.
If the whole of Japan sank to your level, it would be the end of the world.Doraemon
These are Doraemon’s scathing words to Nobita, who tried to use a gadget to bring the intelligence of all Japanese people down to his own level.
The phrasing conveys how low Nobita’s level is, and the way Doraemon says it—directly, though troubled—adds a comedic touch.
It not only rejects the idea of lowering abilities to the least capable, but also conveys the message that it’s precisely because everyone’s abilities differ that mutual support sustains the world as it is.
It teaches us not to judge things solely by differences in ability, but to recognize those differences as important.
