Nezuko is one of the most popular characters in Demon Slayer. Serving as the deuteragonist of the series, she\u2019s the younger sister of Tanjiro and is turned into a demon at the beginning of the story. Since then, she\u2019s been accompanying her brother on his journey. She\u2019s one of the few shonen heroines who isn\u2019t reliant on the protagonist in battles and isn\u2019t used for fan service. Her relationship with Tanjiro is the core and one of the best parts of the story. But despite being strong, narratively important, and adorable, viewers still think that Nezuko is underwritten. Though she\u2019s a main character and appears in almost every Demon Slayer arc, she doesn\u2019t receive a lot of development. She mostly appears for lighthearted moments or battles. This doesn\u2019t give her many opportunities to progress as a character. Instead, she\u2019s become more of a mascot for the anime show. Fans have also pointed out her lack of personality. She had the potential to become one of the most interesting characters in the story, given her sad backstory and her status as a newly turned demon. However, the Demon Slayer author avoided any dark route for her, much to the complaints of his readers. One such fan shared on Reddit, \u201cNezuko. I like her, but I don\u2019t think she has much personality. And the whole hypnosis thing takes away a lot from her character in my opinion.\u201d Another added, \u201cA lot of them, in my opinion, but I\u2019m going with Nezuko. She just ends up being a plot point\/cute mascot who gets underserved bullsh*t powers. For a main character, she seems truly underwhelming.\u201d A third joined, \u201cMore development or better written? Nezuko, as is she is basically the cute mascot with deus ex machina conveniences,\u201d while a fourth commented, \u201cNezuko has no character.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m a big Nezuko fan but she doesn\u2019t really have a personality, but that\u2019s because she didn\u2019t talk for like three and a half seasons. I feel like she should talk more and be a little bit more interesting,\u201d another user wrote. Another Demon Slayer character fans believe is underwritten is the series\u2019 antagonist, Muzan Kibutsuji. Many have complained about him being a one-toned character and an unimpressive villain for such a wonderful story. Muzan will face the living Hashira in the upcoming Demon Slayer Season 4 finale.
