    The reason people remember him is because he died the way he lived
    Too many anime’s have happy endings of characters who have righteous anger turning the fight around, and Mollywhopping the villain, Akaza made a clean escape with tanjiro being the one to piss him off and lose his cocky state. I’m glad that demon slayer has shown that living for ideals doesn’t always have the happiest of endings. But can be beautiful anyway when we define how we die and not the other way around.

      Definitely not intentional. It just stands out because we don't know Japanese. Rather, the names in demon slayer are all chosen to have some sort of meaning (as in Japanese names can have actual words in them). Rengoku means "purgatory".
