This is the scene where Nezuko overcame the sun. Tanjirou thought Nezuko was dead after being exposed to the sun.
However, Nezuko conquered the sun, and Tanjiro was relieved and said, “Thank goodness.
Nezuko imitated Tanjirouno’s words and repeated them.
“よかった 大丈夫？ よかったね”
Grammatical Structure
よかった (yokatta)
This is the past tense form of the adjective “いい (ii),” which means “good.” “よかった” can be translated as “was good,” “was okay,” or “I’m glad” in English. It expresses a sense of relief or happiness about a past event.
大丈夫 (だいじょうぶ / daijoubu)
This is an adjective meaning “okay,” “all right,” or “safe.” It is often used to ask or confirm if someone is alright or if something is fine.
よかったね (yokatta ne)
This phrase repeats “よかった” but adds “ね (ne),” a sentence-ending particle used to seek agreement or confirmation. It can be translated as “I’m glad, right?” or “It was good, wasn’t it?” in English.
