Quotes you'll want to say out loud! A collection of cool lines from anime and words that strike the heart

You won’t get anywhere with that timid attitude. Don’t abandon your aggressive stance.Genya Shinazugawa

A quote about deciding to act when you’ve been frozen, waiting for the right moment.

Having already been cut down once by Upper Rank One, Kokushibo, Genya Shinazugawa had been keeping his distance, looking for the right timing to use his own Blood Demon Art—but he makes the decision necessary to win.

The stark reality that if he kept hesitating his comrades would all eventually die is what pushed Genya to take a step forward.

His self-questioning—What can I do? Can I really do it?—and the courage he musters teach us something important while moving us deeply.

I’m afraid that when the value of life becomes ambiguous, I’ll lose sight of the value of the people I care about too.Yuji Itadori

A famous quote from Yuji Itadori, the main character of the series.

It follows the line, “I feel like if I kill someone even once, the option to ‘kill’ will become part of my everyday life.” Perhaps these are words one must keep in mind precisely because they live on the battlefield.

Even in the real world, the word “kill” gets thrown around casually, but this message makes us think about how seriously people mean it and what that word might distort.

In a story where defeating enemies is taken for granted, this quote adds depth and nuance.

Defeat is not an option. We must never allow the lives of the comrades who protected us to be wasted.Obanai Iguro

This is a famous scene that captures Obanai Iguro’s resolve and strong sense of responsibility as he stands on the battlefield.

It conveys his determination to never let his comrades’ sacrifices be in vain and to fight to the very end at the cost of his own life.

Though he often comes across as cool-headed and sharp-tongued, these words are filled with a deep bond and sincerity toward his companions.

His stance—that achieving victory is not merely a personal mission but a duty borne on behalf of his comrades—embodies the essence of a Demon Slayer Corps swordsman.

It’s a moving quote that shows his will to overcome fear and fulfill his responsibility.

Don’t just talk—prove it with a flashy show.Tengen Uzui

After the battle on Mount Natagumo, Tanjiro is taken to the Hashira Meeting.

There, the Hashira demand that he explain why, despite being a Demon Slayer, he is traveling with a demon.

Tanjiro desperately insists that Nezuko is his younger sister and that she does not harm humans.

However, the Hashira say they have never seen a demon who doesn’t attack people, so they can’t trust her and believe she should be killed.

While Uzui doesn’t make any extreme statements, he throws this line at Tanjiro and demands he prove it’s not just talk.

It was a memorable line that revealed both his love of flashiness and his cool-headed judgment.

Give it back. Give back the legs, the hands, the life—give everything back. If you can’t do that, then atone by dying a million times!!Inosuke Hashibira

Because Inosuke grew up in the mountains raised by boars, he lacked human sensibilities—he would trample a small girl and keep kicking Zenitsu even as he protected Nezuko.

But after joining the Demon Slayer Corps and meeting his comrades, he came to understand human warmth and began to change.

That feeling is especially strong in the scene with this line.

Muzan Kibutsuji cares nothing for human life; he cut down and trampled many Demon Slayers.

Inosuke, exploding with rage over his comrades being wounded and killed, cries out this line through tears.

Seeing Inosuke seething with anger for the sake of his friends is truly moving.

I’ll definitely cut them down. I will absolutely see it through.Kanao Tsuyuri

Before the battle in the Infinity Castle, Kanao had been told by Kocho about her plan to make Douma absorb a body filled with wisteria poison.

Kocho had asked her, “I will definitely weaken the demon, so Kanao, you must cut off its head and finish it.” Fighting alongside Inosuke and confronting Douma, the poison finally begins to take effect.

In that moment, Kanao speaks these words in her heart as if addressing Kocho and moves in to deliver the finishing blow to Douma.

It was a line that conveyed her strong resolve—to keep her promise to Kocho and never let her sacrifice be in vain.

I won’t let anyone here die!!Kyojuro Rengoku

After repeatedly being enticed to become a demon, he declared to Upper Rank Three, Akaza, the famed line: “I will not let anyone here die!!” It’s a quote that embodies Kyojuro Rengoku’s way of life, grounded in his promise to his late mother: “Helping the weak is the duty of those born strong.” The resolve that fuels his power—so great that even the enemy Akaza praises it—is overwhelmingly compelling.

True to his words, not a single person under his protection was lost.

It’s a spine-tingling quote that validates Kyojuro Rengoku’s strength.
