I will review this article. Tintor2 (talk) 14:43, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

Infobox
First of all the infobox is way too big. It clashes with the text. I would suggest either removing all the relatives or creating a template open so that it is optional to the readers.
Lead
Per WP:Lead the entire lead should have content already covered in the body so I suggest removing the reference and make sure it is referenced below.
Appearances
This section is too big for the series' length and Nezuko's often removal from the main narrative. I recommend trimming the content and adding wikilinks to each character. Sometimes techniques are not necessary. Tanjiro is the main lead and I think his appearances section is smaller.
Wasn't there a spinoff that reimagines Nezuko as a school student?
Reception
There are some parts of popularity that could be easily mixed with critical response like "The 19th episode of the first season, "Hinokami", was cited by critics at IGN as one of television's best episodes in history, commenting on the build-up and exciting execution" or "Manga.Tokyo enjoyed the build-up of this scene as Nezuko managed to assist Tanjiro thanks to being motivated by her late mother, and the power she showed surprised the writer. Due to the emotional delivery of this scene, the writer looked forward to more interactions between the two siblings". Same with " IGN regarded Nezuko as one of the series' most popular characters and noted how her design elaborates the way she sees humans as good people as a result of hypnosis.[44] Siliconera made a similar article discussing her characterization and how compelling she is during the anime's first season due to how, despite her tragic backstory, Nezuko becomes a more heroic figure when fighting other demons.[45]"
The last paragraph goes a bit too long about scholars describing the character. I recommend either splitting it into a analysis subsection or cutting references.
Good work.Tintor2 (talk) 14:54, 26 June 2025 (UTC)

@Tintor2: I made the changes you suggested.  For the point about the scholars, I created a new section, Analysis. Z. Patterson (talk) 21:01, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
Some minor notes.
Reference 1 is not needed since there are already interviews and reviews crediting the two actress.
Characterization and themes is kinda small and could easily moved to the first paragraph of creation when explaining Nezuko's characterization and how important it is for the editor explaining her creation.
Some parts of appearances could also be trimmed like how Rengoku
Remember to add wikilinks to redirects or character lists in appearances.
The marketing material could easily be moved to popularity but rather than saying "this character became merchandising", more context could be used like the time it was made or if it involved a party. For example: " their Nendoroid, Figma, Hello! Good Smile" feels kinda trivial since it's not discussed by a third party source but instead by a website that sells items.
"sexualization despite her changing her size and her being fictional" her being fictional? Maybe it needs rewording.
The rest seems fine. I'll sources are well done. Revise this and I'll promote it to GA. Tintor2 (talk) 21:17, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
@Tintor2: I made the changes you listed.  I trimmed parts of Appearances to cut out less important details. Z. Patterson (talk) 22:08, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
One last thing. The appearances section seems to lack the character's ending? It's been long since I read it but it seem weird. I also tried an example of trimming minor areas. Try focusing only on the key moments involving the character Tintor2 (talk) 22:23, 26 June 2025 (UTC)
@Tintor2: I addressed Nezuko's ending.  I was not sure if I should have mentioned her reincarnation, Toko Agatsuma, in the last chapter, but the story of Nezuko herself ends in the second-to-last chapter in Volume 23 of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. Z. Patterson (talk) 01:09, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
