(I wrote a short continuation to that cinema setup. Spoilers ahead for first Mugenjo movie. No spoilers for the manga but spoilers for what the movie covers, so come back and see this later if you like.)
Tengen couldn’t believe his ears. The blast of sound in this cinema was flamboyantly impressive, but he did not expect the illusion to extend to his surroundings.
“Kamado-shonen certainly has improved! Look at that maneuver! That Hashira training has helped everyone, it seems! Good idea, Himejima!”
“Woo-o-o-o-oow, I almost feel like I’m in that castle myself!” chimes Suma, before Makio and Hinatsuru shush her. They do not seem to have noticed the glowing man with bright yellow hair sitting at Tengen's other side. The glowing dead man, no less.
“What are you doing here?” Tengen finally whispers to him.
“I'm watching a ‘movie.’ The same thing you’re doing.”
“No, I mean, like… but… did you not get the memo? See, the last time they made a big one of these, you sorta, you know, at the end, there was this Upper Moon that showed up, and…”
“There’s no ‘sorta’ to being dead, Uzui. I’m aware of what happened,” replies Kyojuro, turning to reveal a hole in his chest. Tengen tries to cover him up before his wives catch such a gruesome sight, but that only causes them to glance curiously in his direction. Just as quickly, they turn their attention back to the screen.
“They even set it to music.”
“Amazing.”
“Oh! Look! There’s that snake man again!”
“I didn’t know he could do that!”
“I’ll bet he likes that girl.”
Kyojuro smiles to Tengen. “My contractual appearances have limitations. Don’t worry, I won’t be distracting to their movie-watching experience.”
Tengen feels convinced of that and decides to sit back and pretend nothing is wrong. His own movie-watching experience now has a very flashy distraction, though.
“Did you see how monstrous those demons are? They must be of at least Lower Moon caliber.”
“Yeah, I wonder about that. They all look the same. Kind of lame,” Tengen responds, trying to play it cool that there is a ghost manifested beside him. The movie goes on, with Kyojuro shouting out of the names of everyone he knows, or sort of knows.
“Look! It’s Shinazugawa! Look! There’s the boy with the boar head!”
“I see them.”
“Who’s that one?”
“That’s Shinazugawa’s brother.”
“He has a brother? Since when?”
“I’m not gonna sit here and explain the whole movie to you. If you’re gonna watch it, just watch.”
“I feel like I’ve missed a lot though! Hahaha!”
You have, Tengen thinks to respond, but decides against it. They grow quiet, watching seriously as Shinobu enters the lair of an Upper Moon.
At least, not until words pop into Tengen’s head. He glances over to his wives, who are engrossed in the scene unfolding before their eyes. They’d be upset with him. Maybe having Kyojuro there is a blessing. He leans to his right and whispers,
Kyojuro is quieter after that scene ends. Tengen smirks, but knows it would be inappropriate to rub in the fact that he called it. After all, they’ve barely entered this fortress and that is already one Hashira dead. It's bad news for everyone. His wives didn’t even know her and they’re all crying.
The movie goes on.
“Uzui, I don’t get it. Why is a demon wearing the Corp uniform? Why is he allowed to treat Yellow Boy’s injuries?”
“Shh, I’m trying to watch here, my part is coming up soon—”
“Your part?”
“Yeah. I got to make a cameo in this film,” Tengen flashes him a smile. He’s embarrassed to admit how small a role it is, but at least it’s something.
Kyojuro glowers at him. “Why are you here if you’re in the film?”
“Why are you here if you’re dead!?”
“Tengen-sama, ssssh!” all three wives hiss.
He ducks at the sound of their chastisement, and then goes on whispering to Kyojuro. “Where’s Kochou, anyway? Shouldn’t she be hanging out here now too to watch how the rest of it plays out? Is that the deal we former Hashira get cut?”
“I think she had different conditions in her contract about reappearances--Hhh!!!”
The air around the ghost changes completely as Kyojuro locks his focus on the screen. Tengen can tell from what he’s hearing who has just made an appearance. It’s Upper Moon Three, the demon who killed Kyojuro.
“Oh. Yeah, he—” Tengen begins, but seeing the way Kyojuro’s eyes swell with emotion, he decides to be quiet and let Kyojuro soak it in. He deserves that. Tengen looks back to the screen, but then releases with disgust that he just missed his own cameo.
As the battle against Upper Moon Three ensures, Tengen’s attention is dominated. He and his wives and former colleague all watch in stillness and silence, filled with respect, awe, and terror for Tanjiro and Giyuu. And a bit of jealousy, Tengen must admit to himself. If it weren’t for his injuries, he’d still be on the battlefield with everyone else.
When he feels himself thinking so, he steals a glance down to Kyojuro. His flaming eyes track every moment, his mouth stays shut, but with the changes in the grip he’d have on the movie theater arm rest, Tengen can tell Kyojuro is following the battle as intensely as though he is fighting it himself, coaching Tanjiro through every move. He would have loved having Tanjiro as a Tsuguko. Tanjiro would have loved having him as a master.
Tengen would have wanted Tanjiro too, but then as he sits back and observes how Tanjiro grows even in the midst of a battle like this, Tengen feels small, realizing how little he ever could have taught him. He’d never have lasted as long as Giyuu out there… or as long as Kyojuro did.
Suma can’t help herself anymore and breaks the silence. “No! No, Tanjiro-kun, he’s not dead, he’s not dead!”
“Tanjiro-kun, watch out!” Makio yells.
“Sssh! He can’t hear you!” Hinatsuru tries to remind them. “If you get us kicked out, we won’t get to see how it ends!”
Tengen feels sick. He’d have been done for a long time ago if Gyutaro had that same willpower as Akaza. It hits him all over again how much shit the whole Corp is deep in, and how despite all his talk of wishing he could be there too, he’s grateful that he’s not. The whole sad past of that demon just washes over him as he sits with that disgust in himself.
Little by little, his wives have started to cry. Hinatsuru can’t keep her tears back and focuses on silence, Makio is sniffling to hold everything back, and as Suma cries, she mutters, “This won’t make me forgive him. He’s still a demon. I won’t forgive him.”
“Umu,” says Kyojuro. His eyes still face the screen, and across his serious expression, there is weight and understanding. “I still hate him.”
Suma shrieks and hides her eyes after Akaza attacks himself, but Tengen can’t help but feel disappointed. “Does that count as a win those two?” he whispers to Kyojuro, but Kyojuro is still just as absorbed in watching Akaza as Tanjiro and Giyuu are.
At last, when it seems everything is over, Tanjiro wobbles, then falls face-first to the polished wooden floor. “TANJIRO-KUN!!!” all three wives scream, and at last, a cinema worker kicks them out. As they begrudgingly pack up their things and slink out, Tengen looks back to Kyojuro, who has not moved and is still watching seriously.
“I’ll stay here,” he says. “I’ll see things through to the end.”
“Dude, you’re gonna be here a while.”
“Umu. With the battles still left to fight, it might not even end until after sunrise.”
“No, man, I mean there are two more movies. It’s gonna take at least a couple years to finish them.”
At this, Kyojuro finally looks back.
劇場版「鬼滅の刃」無限城編 第一章 × TOHOシネマズ コラボマナー講座/告知映像
youtube
This is only the preview of the "Manner Kouza" (overview of cinema manners) showing before the main feature at Toho Cinemas, but I've seen it enough times to paraphrase the whole thing for you below the cut.
Tengen: So that's the Infinity Castle?
Hinatsuru: Ah!
Tengen: It sure is flamboyant!!
Suma: Tanjiro-kun,
Suma & Makio: YAAAAAAY!
Hinatsuru (distressed): Please calm down!
NO KICKING THE SEATS, NO TALKING
Makio (with a giant stack of fancy bentou boxes that startles Suma): Tengen-sama! I brought our meal!
Hinatsuru (more distressed): Wait! The rules say no outside food allowed!
NO OUTSIDE FOOD
Tengen (whispering): Do these rules say anything else?
Hinatsuru (so very distressed): It seems you're not allowed to use a "mobile phone."
Tengen (scratching his chin): "Mo-bile-phone"?
NO MOBILE PHONE USE
Tengen (smiling and standing next to all his smiling wives under a textual reminder to follow the rules so that everybody has a good time): I wish I could have fought alongside everyone too!
The wives (throwing their fists in the air and then going in for a three-person hug): Let's all root them on together!!

I know the extra development for the mob character Demon Slayer Corp swordsmen might have felt like flat filler with the "I'll do my best! I'll do my best to support Tanjiro and the Hashira!" "Me too! I'll do my best!"
But like
Real life Japanese high school sports team boys do sound like that
#at least in my fleeting experience with them#anyway I'm just going back to one of these episodes for drawing reference ohoho

So I got this pretty thing months ago. It is useless to me as a placemat but I love the design. However, the cropping on one of these images is a bit different than the original.

Look at Giyuu, he is trying so hard to be included, and months later I am still amused by this. It's like he made the decision too late to join and everyone was already running off without him. He's like, "I do want to be included after all. Wait up."
And like, to use this as the title card in the opening they needed to make room for the logo, but here, it really is just Sanemi having a great time showing off his scars and abs.

I would love to think that Shinobu, if she's something of a conscious ghost watching the rest of the battle from within Douma, is having racing thoughts like, "How can I get this poison to act faster? How can I make it stronger? Argh! I don't have any control over my cells anymore! Don't listen to him, Kanao! Don't listen to him, Inosuke-kun! But keep him talking! I need to find some way to help them, but how??"
But behind her, there's Kotoha, all smiles, like "Hi!! Hello! : D"
And Shinobu's getting distracted and annoyed but doesn't want to be impolite, so she's just like, "Hi, I'm sorry, I'm kind of busy here--yes, Kanao, there--"
"Oh!! You don't know me. But!! : D I just want to thank you for taking care of Inosuke!! : D I'm his mom!! <3333"
And then Shinobu's finally broken out of her racing thoughts and does a double take (since she was kind of ignoring all the stuff Douma was saying)
(They both get to "live forever" in the same place, after all.)
#oh my gosh I was just got reminded that Kotoha was around Shinobu's age too#no wonder Inosuke saw Kotoha in her#AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#my art#hashibira kotoha#kochou shinobu#kocho shinobu

I mostly just want to express how thankful I am for your blog! It's really great to know that someone else, even on the other side of the world, loves and appreciates KnY just as much as myself. I love reading your research and fan theories. And you've inspired me to analyze the series in new ways 😊 some day I will make a post about my favorite analysis (hint: it's about the similarities between the Kamado and Shinazugawa siblings 🤭) anyway, thank you for being you and sharing that here ❤️
I... I really have been doing this five years now. *_* Although it seems the fandom cycle moves faster elsewhere, I certainly am not alone in a country of thousands of other people still very obsessed with Kimetsu no Yaiba. I usually channel that obsession into English-language fandom activities, though, so I'm glad it's enjoyable, gives people outside of KnY-fandom central a place to get in on the hype, and that it spreads the KnY love and nerdery! Thank you for having been here so long!

do you have anything you wished happened in canon solely because of your own headcanon? ;D

Unless something is an AU or purely crack humor (and I have made a whole lot of both), my favorite kind of fanwork is fanwork that feels like it could realistically slip in alongside canon, like deleted scenes, or pre-canon or post-canon content. I get to pretend it's real as long as nothing new comes out to contradict it! (Which happens sometimes, argh.)
I think I used up all my wish-fulfillment power when Kanamori was given more time to canonically hang out with Muichiro (which I had played with here and here especially, and then after seeing that episode, I loved adding onto it with more and more and more and more). But if we're talking things I wish could be made into canon that would change the current canon, then I really, really wish we had a filler arc for the Five Senses Kids + Nezuko to go on a mission together. I plotted out the emotional plot beats I'd want, and I wrote the first chapter to set up how I'd slip it in as smoothly as possible in existing canon, but that's it.
I like to try to retain a flavor of canon in my fics, including AUs, but there are a few fics that I hold as headcanon base, like trying to figure out the impact of Shinobu's canonically deceased Tsuguko despite how little they are mentioned in canon, or trying to figure out how Iguro and Uzui found themselves discussing their pasts because Fanbook #2 said that happened, or wanting to see how Giyuu & Sanemi's post-canon friendship would blossom while they respectively deal with starting over in (what's left of) post-Corp life. There also times I get an idea like "Senjuro and Kotetsu would make great penpals" and then play with how satisfyingly that would fit alongside canon. But also, I love one-shots that simply give me more character interactions I love, like this short and simple one of Zenitsu and Inosuke on a mission together.
But also, I have tons and tons of random little comics and pieces of fanart or random posts here and there of things I would simply like to be true, like that the sound of Zenitsu's Godspeed woke Uzui from the near-dead and that Inosuke has a talent for massaging out the knots in Aoi's tense shoulders.

One thing that's always bugged me (get it?) Is that we didn't get to see the reaction of Aoi and the butterfly girls when Shinobu died. We only got a chapter cover of them praying. How do you think they reacted and also their reunion with Kanao wearing Shinobu's hairpin?
That is indeed one of the great mysteries that canon had no time to go to into. But that also makes it delicious potential fanfic content, because it could go in many different directions.
I sort of wonder if they were warned. Many Corp members knew, at some level, to expect that a big battle was coming. Why else would they have been praying? It wouldn't be unusual for Corp members not to come home at night; they're always busy, so that might not have tipped them off. And the crows were certainly too busy to drop by and let them know.
Maybe Aoi even know the plan, because Shinobu warned her too and asked her to take over caring for the little girls, or maybe because Kanao looked ill after Shinobu told her, Aoi asked, and Kanao couldn't keep it to herself.
So maybe, when the girls' battle started in taking care of the severely injured, they were emotionally prepared.
Or, perhaps they only had an inkling that something bad might happen to Shinobu--an inkling stronger than usual. And maybe they held out hope that they would be wrong, only for that hope to shatter when they see the purple butterfly in Kanao's hair the moment she returns home. But there is no time to be crushed--there are injured people who desperately need help.
Or, maybe in the chaos of it all, they ask where Shinobu is but no one is telling them amidst the triage. Kanao is passed out with exhaustion and can't tell them anything, and maybe while running from patient to patient with IV bags and bandages, they don't notice her hair piece. Maybe because no one has told them anything, that means Shinobu is out there, still helping people who can't be moved to the Butterfly Mansion yet.
But then, things are quiet at last, and then that hope gets shattered.

What was the exact relationship between Doma and Kotoha? I know Doma has no feelings, but he still chose to spare Kotoha for her "pure soul" and never planned to kill her. He wanted to keep her until she dies on her own, something he didn't do for other cult followers. I need to know😔❤️
Although it is correct to say that Douma does not feel anguish or joy like normal people do, and could be said to be numb to everything and is just performing his feelings, I don't think it's quite right to say he has no feelings whatsoever. After all, Fanbook #2 said he was "moved" by encountering Muzan and therefore chose to make him the god of his cult, and lists a bunch of hobbies. There are actually a lot of things we could say Douma likes: chitchat, (bothering) Akaza, sake baths, smoking, dance, decorating his place with women's skulls and playing with their pretty hair, "saving" people from their silly, pitiful anxieties.
But it's all just kind of a surface-level "like" and not something that really strikes a passion in him. I think the only reason he was excited about getting poisoned was because it provided some respite from ennui.
Fanbook 2 also mentions in a Taisho Secret that he found his followers terribly stupid for leading themselves to ruin over their desires for things like money and status and romance. However, this made him curious what such desires would feel like. He already had money and status and a more or less immortal body and he didn't really care much about these things one way or another, so he sometimes tried out falling in love. However, the Japanese for this makes it clear that it was not serious: 子供の恋愛ごっこのようなこと, it was "something like playing a pretend romance like children do." He was playing house with the occasional partner, basically.
Rather than lacking all feeling, what Douma lacks most is desire. He was born liberated from all the stupid problems it brings about, but that means he lacked any passion--positive or negative--that would stem from it. This is why the sudden liking he took to Shinobu--a desire to stay with her and talk with her more--was such an overwhelming feeling for him, for he could at last understand having a feeling like that at all.
Since that (for him) startlingly new encounter with Shinobu came years after his decision to let Kotoha live out her natural life, I don't see Douma having any romantic feelings for Kotoha, at least not anything that ever broke through his lifelong ennui. Could you make fanwork that says he was actually afraid of desire and buried that part of himself after a childhood of seeing what stupid things it did to people, and that he had feelings for Kotoha he did not realize? Yeah, that could make sense in a fic.
In a strict reading of canon, I think Kotoha was closer to those skulls with long pretty hair decorating his lair. Even the verb he uses for keeping her around is 置く, the same verb you'd use for setting an object somewhere. To Douma, she's just cheerful decor.
What makes her a little different from other people who found refuge at his cult, I think, is that once she felt safe, she was already as happy as she wanted to be--all she needed to be blissfully happy was Inosuke, and she did not have any other desire that tormented her.
She was a single satisfied person among Douma's den of stupid people begging for him to fulfill them. If, instead of Douma just not being capable of feelings, Douma simply fled from his own desires for fear of how they would make him as stupid as the people crying and begging a mere child to save them, then perhaps he never examined that he had a desire to be around someone who didn't want anything from him.

Maybe draw some Giyushino or Zennezu? Or both, if you feel like it, heh heh.
If you go the Giyushino route, how about have the two kiss similar to how the KnY mascots did recently? (If you consider what they did to be kissing, depends on the angle lol).
Anyways, excited to see what random things you might be asked about or asked to draw.
Drawing kissing is... embarrassing But also, now my brain is stuck on the mini-taishi mascots instead of any actual ship content, whoops. I don't follow the mini-taishi news or adventures very closely, so although I saw a screenshot somewhere, I don't have any comment to add about what was actually going on. Wasn't there also something going around a few months ago with a screenshot of the Shinobu and Mitsuri mascots kissing too, though? Tsk tsk, Shinobu, you must be causing so many problems with the studio executives who are bound to canon in their official content.

Or maybe the Shinobu mini-taishi is a multishipper agent of chaos.
#seeing as I went with the full-on Zennezu shipping stuff for a different Ask I thought I would do GiyuShino here#but then I did not#Giyuu is having his simmered salmon and daikon lunch break somewhere and he is blissfully unaware#kocho shinobu#kochou shinobu#my dumb art

We know that Chachamaru is a cat turns demon so I wonder if more kinds of animals that turned into demon but still keep their natural instinct like Chachamaru? (Like a frog, for example)
I suppose that would demon on how their transformation came about. Tamayo cared about Chachamaru and probably did her best to retain his nature. Muzan probably would have only experimented to see what would happen, and unless he could order them around like humans, they probably wouldn't be useful to him. He wouldn't care about about retaining their nature if, as a monstrosity, they could at least cause trouble for those pesky demon hunters.
Maybe that's what happened to these guys in Chapter 140.

Dunno if you're going to do drawing requests, maybe an AU where Rui and his spider demon family are instead demon slayers and they're a makeshift found family who actually all care about each other. Then a bittersweet end where Rui finally reunites with them in the afterlife during the final arc.
I just think that concept has a lot of wholesome and dramatic. potential
I got a similar Ask a few years ago, so I headcanoned-out how this AU demon slaying family would come together over there.
And now you want me to kill them?? Ok. I guess it would happen once they have all really grown on Rui. By that time, he's pretty highly ranked, and if he didn't already have so many students of his own for the Breath Technique he made, other Hashira might have had their eyes on him as a Tsuguko. A lot of people expect he'll be a Hashira eventually.
Maybe that's why the makeshift Spider Breath family thought just the group of them alone would be fine on a demon-infested mountain, and they split up, but Mother is very soon caught in a demon trap and forced to attack Rui. Unwilling to let that happen, she frees herself by killing herself, but she lives long enough to say goodbye to Rui and bid him to be careful and save himself. Then Brother gets overconfident with a Spider-Breath-enhanced poison that takes time to work, but the tables quickly turn on him while he's biding time with trash talk. Rui didn't make it in time. Father finds new sources of strength he never knew he had while he is locked in a desperate battle, and he almost triumphs, but the mountain is overrun with demons and another comes in and gets him. Again, Rui is too late. He desperately tries to find Sister so that he can protect at least one of them, since he's the absurdly strong one, that's his role, but he gets to her after she assures him she's fine, the demon she encountered wasn't that strong, Rui should be proud of her, she handled it--and then the demon poison hits and she violently dies before his eyes, and he is powerless to save her.
The shock and guilt probably puts Rui out of sorts for a while. He probably only continues slaying demons once he gets a special visit from Kagaya, who offers encouragement. He keeps to himself after that, much to the concern of the ghost family watching over him. So then at some point in the final battle, Rui gets killed (let's go ahead and say it was Muzan, and maybe he, I don't know, bought just enough time for the Hashira to regroup). His ghost family comes to greet him, he breaks down crying and apologizing for not saving them, but then Mother turns his attention to two other ghosts who have been watching over him too--his parents.

Hello again Buriko, I am Sumi's anon fan as the adopted sister of the Shinazugawa brothers. I don't know if you remember a while back I talked about this mental image of Sumi being influenced by the Shinazugawa and when she became a teenager, instead of turning into a young lady like her adopted sisters, she would turn out to be a tough girl who fights with other boys, rides motorcycles and basically is a Sukeban. Oh and she turned out to be growing up way too fast and now she's getting up to Sanemi's height at 15 years old. Can we please have a picture of that Sumi and how the Shinazugawa brothers deal with the “mess” they have created?
Plus this Anon:

Although many images popped into my head, this is the only one I produced (motorcycles are beyond my skill level). But I did also pictured Taisho Roman-style Sumi-chan falling down a well, and Kiyo-chan and Naho-chan being like, "Oh no, Shinobu-sama said to stay away from this dangerous well, there could be demons, or time travel" and then Sumi-chan flies back out on a roaring motorcycle. The writing at the end is probably too small to make out and doesn't totally answer the question. Sanemi would and Genya would both immediately have regrets about having influenced her. Genya sternly warns her never to point the gun at humans; now that there are no demons it is only for target practice. "Or intimidation," she smiles. Sanemi does react with shock about her height. "Protein," she smiles, for on average the Japanese population is now much taller than they were in Taisho because higher protein diets became the norm later on. Sanemi comes around to the new Sumi when she gifts him brass knuckles. Shinobu is initially upset, but also, yeah, she'd have done the same thing at her age, given the opportunity. The meaning of the butterfly tattoo, and the knives in Sumi's shoes warm Shinobu's heart. Kiyo-chan and Naho-chan are very nervous around Sumi-chan, because they are good girls who are peak Taisho Roman, and that means being very interested in finding love matches whose families would approve of them, so they worry if hanging out with Sumi will reflect badly on them. But they cause problems for themselves by having way more specific knowledge about what happens to the human body with violent injuries than other girls their age would, so in the end, they come around and apologize for shutting Sumi out while they were startled by her change, and they are all good friends again after that.
Aoi was the one who assumed this was just a rebellious phase and cautioned people to just ignore her until she gets over it. Inosuke and Kanao think it's pretty cool, though. Genya is most bothered by it--he doesn't care what happens to himself socially, but he wants Sumi to have a good future, so even once everybody else gets used to it, Genya is the one warning her not to get into trouble. She smilingly thanks him and assures him she's fine and then rides off on the motorcycle, ignoring his warnings.

Curious question but what's the age limit for joining the Demon Slayer Corps and becoming a pillar? Muichiro became one at just 14 in a single year. Would Ubuyashiki allow a ten year old child prodigy to join the Corps and even become a pillar?
Yes, he'd allow that.
If you can prove you are willing and able to kill demons despite the risks, Ubuyashiki is not gonna stop you. He was already running this Corp before most children could read.

Hello good morning or good afternoon, I've been thinking about something recently: what would happen if Kie was a demon hunter? Like, it would be interesting for her to be a demonslayer looking for a cure for her children and to take revenge on Muzan.
I don't feel driven to make this AU myself, but if I did, it might look a little like this. That said, I've seen the Kie demon slayer idea here and there around the fandom, so someone might have done it already!

How do you think Kokushibo reacted to his six eyes after he freshly transformed into a demon? Since he was horrified/disgusted after seeing how monstrous he had become in the end.
It recently stood out to me how besides the eyes, Kokushibo looks very human--even his fingernails are nice and neat. I've also pondered the reason for six eyes and found the "ichi" kanji in them ironic.
But as for how he reacted? Hmmm. Depends on how quickly he got all those eyes, I suppose.
If it was one eye at a time, perhaps he was a little disturbed by having a third eye, and maybe he recognized its usefulness but tried to make it stay hidden inside his flesh when not in use. But maybe if he (embarrassingly) could not accomplish this, he justified it as being always in use, which made him more accepting of the others.
If they all popped up at once, he probably had to make peace with his new look reeeeal fast. Stoically accept it. Proudly take ownership of his decision. Make darned sure not to cry out of any of those eyes because they really are so disturbing. Threateningly suggest to Nakime that the Mugenjo has no need for mirrors.
