Realising maybe I like outer banks so much cause S1 gives mild trc vibes

[dreamer-angel-liar]

Outer Banks is The Raven Cycle for hopeful TRC fans who are still holding out for a TV adaptation of the books. If you know you know.

Why Tanjiro and Nezuko >> Sun?

taking a page out of @demonslayerunhinged's book with an unhinged theory but this may actually be complete bs since I did very little background research :D

I was wondering a lot about how both Nezuko and Tanjiro were able to beat the sun easily in demon form (Tanjiro much quicker than Nezuko obviously but the point still stands), and I've seen the theories about Tanjiro just having really great stamina and stuff about his connection to sun breathing. However, I have a random idea.

I have no idea if Kie Kamado really did know the location of the blue spider lily, but if she did, what if she, HEAR ME OUT, fed them to Tanjiro and Nezuko? Since the blue spider lily is supposed to help demons survive in the sun, what if Tanjiro and Nezuko ingested a large enough amount that when they turned into demons, it came to their aid?

So, with a lil bit of background research, the official wiki says that Kie only showed the spider lilies to Tanjiro which obviously means Nezuko didn't have access to flowers. And since red spider lilies in real life are extremely poisonous, I'm imagining something similar to Shinobu injecting herself with wisteria poison happening to Tanjiro and Nezuko.

Now, if we throw all logic out the window, all I can picture is Kie making blue spider lily smoothies and making Tanjiro and Nezuko drink them because that would be hilarious. As for the reason? Since Tanjiro didn't know about demons with his family, Kie probably thought it was something nutritional. Or maybe Kie secretly knew about demons and did this as a precautionary measure (which wouldn't make sense since this helps demons). Who knows?

Or maybe Tanjiro and Nezuko are just built different. ✨💅

WHAT?!??@? BLUE WHAT HAPPENED??!? WHAT THE FUCKINV SHITE??!?!?!?!??!?! GET IN, IDIOT!!!!!!!¡!!¡!!!¡

[usuariosinimaginacion]

I just realized that the one who actually knew the location of the blue spider lily was Tanjiro's mother, as we know that Muzan needs her, he killed her without knowing that she knew the location of the flower and he was doing an unnecessary search.

You wanna know one head canon I don't understand with Demon Slayer? The Blue Spider Lily Soup head canon. What is this head canon? It's the head canon that Tanjirou and Nezuko are immune to sunlight as demons because their mother(Kie, who knew the location of the Blue Spider Lily on Mount Kumotori) fed them and their siblings a soup made from the Blue Spider Lily.

I have one question. Uh, where did this come from?

Because nothing in canon indicates this to even be remotely true. It is stated nowhere on the wiki for the blue spider lily, there's nothing in the manga, and I feel like someone would have mentioned if it was in the fanbooks or any other official material. It only says that Kie and Tanjirou are the only people who knew where the Blue Spider Lily bloomed, that the Blue Spider Lily was a key ingredient in what turned Muzan into a demon, and that Muzan seeks the flower to(supposedly , but we're gonna come back to that) conquer the sun.

What about this told fans, "Yep, Kie made this rare flower into a soup she fed to her kids!".

Aren't spider lilies poisonous?! The blue ones probably are, too, if you don't process them right! Even if the Blue Spider Lily wasn't poisonous... What reason would Kie have to even pick them? Much less use them for soup? Especially with the knowledge that regular spider lilies are poisonous. Why would Kie take that risk with her own children?

Not to mention that whole "Turned a Dude Into an Immortal, Man-Eating Monster Back in the Heian Era" thing. We don't know what exactly was in Muzan's medicine aside from the Blue Spider Lily, but we can assume it was all organic materials because I'm 99% sure antibiotics didn't exist in the pre-1000's Muzan was born in. Hell, it may have just been the flower, processed a certain way if it was poisonous, and crushed into a powder to be consumed. That's another reason why the theory falls apart. With the Blue Spider Lily being such a key component in turning Muzan, if Kie gave her kids the Blue Spider Lily Soup, why doesn't Kie have a bunch of accidental demon children running amok?!

And then we come back to Muzan wanting the Blue Spider Lily to supposedly conquer the sun. Plain and simple, and correct me if I'm wrong, we don't have concrete knowledge that the Blue Spider Lily would actually do that. Only Muzan's word, and I am not trusting that guy as far as I can throw him(Which isn't far. I am not a strong human, what makes you think I'm yeeting Muzan?). So without being certain of its effects, aside from turning a person into a demon progenitor, we can't guarantee that's why Nezuko and Tanjirou conquered the sun.

But you know what we do have, canonically, that could allow our intrepid heroes to conquer the sun?

Oh, I don't know, maybe Sun Breathing?!

Because Nezuko may not canonically be a practitioner of the techniques. But she is descended from a long line of them. And Tanjirou is a practitioner, and he conquered the sun about 30 seconds into his time as a demon!

Not to mention, Muzan specifically mentioned that he was sure Tanjirou would conquer the sun because Tanjirou and Nezuko are of the same blood.

In my opinion, this makes more sense than Blue Spider Lily Soup. It's simple, it makes sense, and I'm doing a lot less mental backflips to figure out how it works. Nezuko and Tanjirou have direct biological relation to a long line of(albeit unknowing) Sun Breathers. That's bound to influence the genetics at some point. Easy as that.

That's the one problem I have with this fandom. Some of the head canons are great, and I love them. It's when fans start acting like their head canon is canon to the point they ignore the actual canon that I get frustrated. It makes it confusing as to what is canon and what is not.

Of course, if there is an official source for this, key word official, I am all ears and eyes.

And this isn't to say headcanons are bad, per se. Just that pushing your headcanon as official canon, and accepting nothing else, is not good. Please keep that in mind. I have a few headcanons of my own, and mine to do with as I please, but I simply share them, and will note if they're headcanons. Or at least try to.
