#looking at mugen train specifically.

[daemonshe]

thinking abt how specifically red spider lilies symbolize death/a final goodbye/meeting someone you'll never meet again. looking at their prevalence in demon slayer.

a tour of the hashira's estates part 8

Rengoku: As a son of a former hashira, Kyojuro spent his entire life growing up in the home of Shinjuro rengoku's estate.

So rengoku could've gotten an estate of his own at anytime after receivng funds at the hashira salary. but he decided to take care of his family. As his brother needed confidence in himself and his father was drinking away his depression. Despite the verbal and possibly physical abuse from his father he didn't let that distract him.

What I've notice after watching mugen train is rengoku has a habit in caring for other people quickly. Trying to take them under his wing and always saying he'll look after him. Like a mother taking in orphans he cares for everyone. So if he did have a hashira training arc, he would treat the slayers well. This isn't to say however he wouldn't be tough on you. He'll make you go through a grueling training just to bulk you up.

We have to remember this is a man who had to self train himself after his father stopped training him. But with his father leaving him to his own devices and a good book he fairly learns quickly.

Now as for his estate, its pretty small compared to the others. He also seems to live nearby a small town as many hashira do stay close to their respectable districts. Based on specific angles and how its laid out it is safe to say they don't own any land.

Rengoku also seems to have a bamboo and wheat growing behind his fence. This was shown in the dream sequence. It's possible they farm on day to day basis. After all he his a growing boy who needs to eat regularly like mitsuri.

He trains outside the front yard with his brother senjuro and he seems to spend alot of time out there when isn't on missions.

However he does have a dojo as he is seen training mitsuri in that dojo.

We've also seen one of the bedrooms as it is shows the room that leads to the front yard or possibly the backyard. Despite the room looking completely different in two pictures its possible ruka is sleeping on the other side of the room as this is still the same room room that leads out the front or backyard.

Wind chime in their ceiling

This is also the room shinjuro sleeps in and sadly the room his late wife past away peacefully. It's safe to say this is the master bedroom.

This could be senjuro's room as he uses it to have a private conversation with tanjiro. But it could just be another guest room not used.

Even though we never see kyojuro's room its possible he may share a room with senjuro due to many siblings sharing rooms together. It is very common in japan back then and now. But if he doesn't he may have a room in the estate as there could be many rooms not shown. We also have to remember mitsuri stayed there as a guest for 6 months of training. so I wouldn't be surprise if their were more rooms not shown.

Other than that, this is all we see including the dream sequence and flashbacks that were shown. Maybe in the future will see more of rengoku's life and origins as we got a flashback of rengoku's memories on how he defeated a lower moon.

I give it a 3 out of 5. As we saw some exterior and interior designs but not enough to show its qualities.

Kyojuro Rengoku with a Demon Exterminator from Hazbin Hotel

• So uhh, just gotta rearrange this fic to fit the story.

• In this universe, the Exorcists are called Demon Exterminators who are equivalent to Demon Hunters. However, the difference is that the Exterminators are stray hunters. They don't kill to serve, they kill for fun. That's the reason Demon Hunters from the Corp. hate them because instead of joining the Demon Hunters, they wasted their talents by killing everything and everyone left and right. Some steal weapons from the Swordsmith Village, some made deals with the demons, and some even kill their fellow Exterminators... Just. For. Entertainment.

• That's why Kyojuro was VERY hesitant to go get you after the Master ordered him to. He has heard rumors of your wild and merciless killing but he's also curious to know what your kind really are... One of the Quintuplets, specifically Hinaki, explained that you are somewhat a close ally to the Corp. much like Lady Tamayo. So they sent him to ask you for help when the demons become stronger each passing night. Especially after Nezuko was given pardon.

• Why didn't they send a crow or Kakushi to find you? That's because you move and glide fast using your makeshift wings to go to a different location to another so your trail cannot be spotted by demon or human, plus you're very territorial and won't hesitate to slaughter those that might disturb your fun. The Master sent Kyojuro because he's a Hashira strong and fast enough to keep up with you and also annoyingly patient enough to go through your rough demeanor.

• You gotta feel bad for this guy cuz he's had a REALLY hard time tracking you down. You move from the mountains, the countryside, the red light district, and even the fucking city. Took him weeks to find you. WEEKS. He finally found you after he mistook your rambunctious exterminator faction as demons and followed them to your military base.

• You ordered your fellow Exterminators to let him in the base after he handed you a scroll containing requests and the Ubuyashiki family crest. You offered him food, at first he politely declined, but seeing how tired he is you insisted anyway. Your comrades are talking shit behind your back about how you let a loud rule-following pest into the base but you brush it off since you're used to it.

• After he explained you the requests of the Master, you reluctantly agreed and went on going to the Corp. with him, this time letting him borrow a pair of makeshift wings to fly there. Huh, well color him surprised, you are much more polite and generous than your comrades. The Hashiras were alert that you are here, standing before them, bowing and introducing yourself to the blind Master.

• They already don't like you considering your background but Kyojuro insisted that you are not as deranged and bloodthirsty as you seem... Until he let you accompany him and saw how you killed your enemies during the Mugen Train Arc. You are a fucking insane sociopathic killing machine that you made Nezuko look like a fangless puppy next to you. He has to remind you everytime to calm down or else you might kill one of the sleeping passengers or worse, the young trio.

• Other than the monstrosity you displayed, he finds you pretty chill. At least you take your training seriously and care for your comrades despite them disliking you. You are still pissed that Akaza nearly killed him though and became slightly protective of him. He finds that endearing. You are pretty glad that he's taken retirement after that incident and finally start a new life as a normal person. Every time he sees a black speck gliding in the sky or a black blur across the rooftops, he knows it's just you checking on him if he's ok and if his stomach wound is fully healed.

Kny Mermaid Au Ramblings P4

I know more but I practically did every other well known demon slayer character in the series so I figured I'd do one last post explaining who the rest of the cast would be as mermaids. I've already done Akaza who's a Betta fish and Kaigaku who's a black electric eel. So now I'll be doing the rest of the demons and a lot of other characters. Lord have mercy for all the fish I looked up.

Remember all of the random lower moons in the ova series and Mugen train arc? Yeah. They're all minnow mers.

Now you're probably thinking Douma would be a rainbow fish right? Well I beg to differ and offer you my take. He'd definitely be a Fairy Wrasse mer.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://oceananimals.org/ocean-fish/wrasse-parrotfish/wrasse/fairy-wrasse/&ved=2ahUKEwjnq_PKusKGAxWMIEQIHR_jCskQr4kDegUI1AEQAA&usg=AOvVaw2YRDgIkmfKxDF7oBof4pf8

Nakime was a hard one but I think she'd be pretty as a black butterfly goldfish mer.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/black-butterfly-goldfish-25-35-length-%2528carassius-auratus%2529&ved=2ahUKEwiQ9s_8vsKGAxXBHUQIHVDdBtsQr4kDegQIFxAA&usg=AOvVaw3BpMo0ntw0sPot4YwstgfD

Kyogai is a Black Drum mer.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_drum&ved=2ahUKEwjs8fG2v8KGAxVkKEQIHZZEOY0Qr4kDegQIPRAA&usg=AOvVaw1Ip242VSs5Kmmf7IcyeJmp

Enmu is definitely an octopus mer. Specifically like the art by @cornfleaykes linked below.

https://www.tumblr.com/cornfleaykes/720378046334615552?source=share

Kokushibo and Yoriichi are the same thing being twins. Since Kokushibo is often associated with purple and Yoriichi orange, I found a fish that could match both of them. Both twins are Biota Orangetail Damselfish mers. Only Yoriichi has unusually more orange on his tail.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.algaebarn.com/shop/captive-bred/fish/biota-orangetail-damselfish-chrysiptera-cyanea/&ved=2ahUKEwiIgui4xMKGAxUzke4BHVgcABsQr4kDegQIZBAA&usg=AOvVaw30i-fXBi32NTynUJIaGegk

Daki and Gyutaro are vastly different to match their appearances. Gyutaro is a black Hagfish mer.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://glassvirtualzoo.wordpress.com/black-hagfish/&ved=2ahUKEwjYgdypxsKGAxXOEkQIHWhYF6kQr4kDegQIGBAA&usg=AOvVaw1uGruM_OsZQR1lXdwTSOYt

Meanwhile Daki/Ume is a Pink Dragon Siamese Fighting Fish mer because I liked how pretty and flowing the fins were and it seems to match her well.

https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/pink-dragon-siamese-fighting-fish-betta-384303799

Gyokko is a mutated Blue eel mer. That's it.

Hantengu was a tricky one. I know I already listed a WHOLE BUNCH of the Kny characters as Betta fishes but I'll go ahead and say that Hantengu and his clones would all be a pod of Betta fish mers related to each other because honestly Betta Fish can come in literally EVERY color. So Urami and Hantengu are black betta fish mers. Sekido is a red one. Urogi yellow. Karaku green but a lighter green than Tanjiro. Aizetsu blue. And Zohakutan is a dark purple color.

Urokodaki would be a common goldfish mer and Jigoro is like Zenitsu and Kaigaku an electric eel mer.

Hairou would be a blacktip reef shark mer.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.tetiaroasociety.org/island/fish/blacktip-reef-shark&ved=2ahUKEwjchKSFy8KGAxXz4ckDHX8GPDkQr4kDegUI6QEQAA&usg=AOvVaw36mXG9EcE-8peU273fAVTB

Muzan is a rare pitch black Bigeye Sand Tiger Shark mer like the one in the article.

https://www.newsweek.com/scientists-find-new-all-black-glowing-shark-species-ninja-lanternshark-409718

Rei and her daughter are both Brown Sweetlips mers.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.shutterstock.com/search/brown-sweetlips-fish&ved=2ahUKEwiS3POCzMKGAxWx7skDHaGFLogQr4kDegQIExAA&usg=AOvVaw3goHa1p3bOS5lBqxcq4ZAx

Haganezuka and the other sword smiths would be manta ray or sting ray mers mostly because I saw some art of Manta ray Mermaids and I think they'd look cool as them.

Rui and the rest of the spider demon are Albino Diving Bell Spider drows which turns out are a real species of spider that lives underwater.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.treehugger.com/nature-blows-my-mind-strange-scuba-diving-spider-4855467&ved=2ahUKEwjW68y8z8KGAxVKHUQIHRSQBwAQr4kDegQIExAA&usg=AOvVaw3T_2Bats74FtQgsKBBWGkX

Bonus mentions

Susamaru is an octopus mer too. Yahaba is a Cleaner fish mer. The swamp demon is just a trio of sea monsters. Tanjiro's ancestors in Yoriichi's flashbacks are Betta fish like the rest of Tanjiro's family. Tokito's father is a red herring mer. Sabito is a common orange Koi. Tengen's brother is a black butterfly koi mer. Monoko is a blue Glofish mer. And Giyuu's sister is the same species of mer as him.

Both Uta and Michikatsu's wife are both Rainbow Trout mers.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.wildtrout.org/content/rainbow-trout&ved=2ahUKEwjL2vXv0cKGAxU_GtAFHat1L9kQr4kDegQIGBAA&usg=AOvVaw1tXsb92zhaFmgDqHcmoWuo

And finally the Ubuyashikis. Amane and Their daughters are all white spotted jellyfish mers.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.crittersquad.com/fact-sheets/white-spotted-jelly-fact-sheet/&ved=2ahUKEwiY466vs8SGAxX748kDHfbqDk8Qr4kDegQIFhAA&usg=AOvVaw2_PbSrvezrdYdHFk1N7iKi

Meanwhile Kagaya and their son are water dragon hybrids.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.pinterest.com/pin/371406300502782906/&ved=2ahUKEwiyoqaDtMSGAxUJ5ckDHVROPSsQr4kDegUIygEQAA&usg=AOvVaw15b7fDD-PTuPL-qbgkndvL

Kanroji Temple: A lesser-known KnY Holy Site... which is a holy site anyway

There are actually a few Kanroji Temples throughout Japan, but one very small one in Wakayama Prefecture embraces the namesake in some subtle ways. The platform-only train station which shares the name also got in on the fun with green and pink "love" banners with cherry blossom and cat motifs. Although there is not as much to see there now as there was in 2020 during a short promotion they did, there's still a few cute vestiges.

To borrow a previous analysis of Mitsuri's name: 甘露寺: "甘露 Kanro" is "Sweetness" (in Japanese Buddhism, this is considered a virtue, perhaps you could think of it more like a heavenly sweetness than a gluttonous one) and "寺 ji" ((Buddhist) Temple). Rather than looking at this and thinking "wow, her family is so Buddhist" you could look at it and think "wow, they're probably pretty well-off." It's a wide generalization, but surnames which are also temple names imply that the family was long a (presumably wealthy) patron of the temple, and it carries a high class ring to it.

Besides the name, there are another couple reasons this is such a nice little Mitsuri related spot.

This temple was already known as a bit of a matchmaking spot, because there is a conifer on the premises with leaves that, once they are dried, don't break if you try to pull them apart. In addition, there are little protective "inome" (boar's eye/snout) marks around the roof, which people nowadays look at as upside-down hearts. There was also some romantic episode between the couple who started the Kamakura shogunate here, Minamoto no Yoritomo and Hojo Masako, but Mitsuri and Masako have very different personalities so I'll leave that there.

I did not realize this until I was on my way, but you know Tama, the station master cat? And Nitama, the successor? Kishi Station is the very next train stop. Mitsuri would be thrilled! I was also thrilled to encounter a celebrity, which was not at all on my itinerary for the day. Even got to ride the Tama train.

It seems that during the Mugen Train hype of 2020, the temple had as many as 200 visitors in a single busy day, when they were displaying a wider banner with the temple's name and a pretty green and pink background. There were signs that cosplayers could hold in front of it, as well as a "love pillar" temporarily installed in the little courtyard. Cosplaying in public isn't welcome in many areas of Japan, so this feels a bit like the equivalent of Christian churches having welcomed Pokemon Go players after they became gyms. This temple does, after all, function first and foremost as a religious institution, specifically for the Jodo sect of Pure Land Buddhism. Still, they are flexible and open-minded with it. Back in 2020 they had Rengoku's words about how growing old and weak being what makes humanity precious written as words of wisdom on the post outside the temple where words of Buddhist-style wisdom are typically posted. Nowadays, although there are also signs saying that the inside is off-limits to anyone not there to worship, there was also a sign saying, "Come, everyone, let us go and pray... (Himejima Gyoumei??)" I love that nod, because Himejima's repetition of the nembutsu (Namu Amida Butsu) is stressed in the Jodo sect.

Speaking of! Besides o-mamori (protective amulets), it is very common for shrines and temples to have go-shuin, a stamp or handwritten seal, in exchange for a modest fee (more technically, a donation). Many pilgrims (or tourists, that's fine) collect these directly in fancy books, but you can also just take the paper home to put in a book later. Although Kanroji Temple had their own version of these before their unexpected namesake popularity, they now have a second version on green and pink paper. It is the nembutsu written in a "rikenmyogo" calligraphy style. That is, "sword style" calligraphy.

While the "demon slayers use swords!" association is clearly there, and in their explanation they make a lot of clever use of the 滅 (eliminate) character so prominent in the KnY world, the sword is in regard to how when Buddhist figures are depicted holding swords, this is not so much to slay the enemies of Buddhist teachings, but to sharpen oneself and cut away ones' evils, faults, and worldly attachments--the sources of worldly suffering.

That said, no one is making the fans get rid of their attachment to a hit manga/anime, and there are still a few signs to hold in "I was here" photos.

The train station, which is surrounded by cherry trees and had a tiny heart graffiti etched into the sign, still has their "love" banners up, as well as a clearly inspired illustration of an anime girl reminding people to show their train passes clearly to the conductor when disembarking (because there are no gates on this train station platform).

So if you ever find yourself a couple hours away from Osaka on your way to visit Nitama the celebrity station master, just remember you can make another nearby stop in honor of the Love Pillar. If you don't have the luck of riding the Tama train, you might get to ride a strawberry train too.

[hantenguclonesimp-minuszoha]

How old was Hantengu when he became a demon?

That is a question Spife is here to answer today and I think the answer is fairly simple.

Now, that up there is a bit specific, aye? So, by that logic, it is technically our answer. Hantengu was 87 years old when he died and was turned into a demon by Muzan. Now that we know how old he was in human years, let's take a look at when KnY began. This post says everything you need to but to save you some time, here's the answer.

We know that during final selection, Tanjirō trained for two years which puts us at 1915. That would mean that Mount Natagumo, the Entertainment District arc, the Mugen Train arc, and the Swordsmith Village arc took during that year. That being said,

as you can see, he's over two centuries old (unless my ass fr forgot my math symbols) and based off of what we have that would be 87 + 200 = 287. This would mean that the math would be 1915 – 287 = 1628 + 87 = 1715. He was turned into a demon in 1715. That was all useless info, but my point is, in 2024 he'd be 2024 – 1628 = 396.

And with that, we know how old Hantengu would have been in 2024. Have fun figuring how much older he is than you.

And to add some useless facts here about some Satomi lore because I can 🥺. Satomi was born in 1984 and the current year my story takes place is 2020 and she's 36 while that takes place. This would mean that in 2020 he'd be 392. Idk what use that is to you but do with that as you wish. 1984 – 1628 = 356 / 392 – 36 = 356. Akumu was born in 2008 and is 12 in 2020. 2008 – 1628 = 380. So yeah, imagine having a husband and dad who's almost four centuries older than you.

That was, all for this stupid post.

[murachinchi]

Why do you ship Tanjiro with adults?/genq (not /neg or anything just curious)

tbh i don't specifically choose adults to ship Tanjiro with.. my first kny ship was kyotan and back then idk their ages but they look close in age visually not that i really care about ages when it comes to fictional stuff.. i just happened to like their chemistry in mugen train so i end up shipping them. With HanTan i start shipping them because of their interaction that i found funny but i also like ugly/pretty trope and hantengu fit the bills.

so yea.. idk why im not interested with Tanjiro ships that's on his "range of age". i did like inotan but it never grew much and lost interest for that ship

[darianias]

Is this normal for Demis or are these just me???

I have ADHD so this just getting bigger lol but I guess this can apply to anyone, esp the second part, but in this case it's in a semi context for me?

A fun and interesting aspect of being #demisexual and #demiromantic (at least towards functional characters in my case as that's what this is about and I've only ever felt this way towards them, probably a psychological thing tbh) or it could just be a me thing... Either way!

Is that the longer I hyperfixate or enjoy a fandom for extended periods of time I tend to slowly fall for more people even YEARS after I started it and I pick it back up later. 😂

Like in Demon Slayer / Kimetsu no Yaiba this past week or the week before I fell for Obanai. Like I had no inkling of an idea that this would happen . I have now fallen for all but one of the Hashira men (men, not male), Gyomei and also have fallen for Yoriichi.

Like... when I first watched it, I would not of been able to tell you this, heck I believe when I first read/finished the manga I had one. ONE guy I simped for being Kyojuro, I believe. Maybe two (second being Giyu) as I have no sense of time, but I know Sanemi was the third for me, and that happened AFTER I finished the manga.

Like I felt nothing for most of them, heck any of them for a while, given I watched season 1 when it came out partially and felt nothing, then the rest when the Mugen train movie came out, still nothing. Then I watched the second season and read the manga and finished it immediately after. (The second season being when I was like Oh SHIT. NO. HE DIES. HEART WHYYY) And now I feel like I am unintentionally "playing pokemon" with the adult male slayers (to count Yoriichi in) like.... 😂

I don't think I'll fall for any of the Oni / demons.... but that's under my terms as for me looking at their human forms and the Oni / demon forms is like comparing Crisis Core Sephiroth to when the Jenova virus/genetics has taken over his mind, or like a zombie virus, they aren't quite the same people imo. Like I simp for Sane Sephiroth, not the most famous/infamous one lol. So like an example: Hakuji =/= Akaza, as he's not himself when he's an Oni.

That being said I've gotten attached to a few of those former lives so time will tell I guess? If that attachment will go anywhere else? 😂😅

(Note: so far I've never felt that sort of attraction towards women- just squishes, would like to be QPPs or kinning at most- so I'm assuming I'm demi-het but I don't have enough experience with NB characters to know yet for sure. But for all I know any of that can change. 🤷‍♀️ Everytime I happens in general it takes me by surprise lol)

ALSO THINKING ABOUT HAVING FEELINGS ABOUT TWO DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF CHARACTERS, this might get controversial/ me cancelled but fuck it

A REALLY WEIRD THING (might also just be a me thing, that might get me cancelled but y'know fuck it) is being attracted to a character's adult version, like in fan art??? So like attracted to aged up versions of characters.

For example, Eijiro Kirishima from MHA. Like I feel absolutely nothing towards canon Kirishima other than he's a sweet baby that needs protected at all costs. But then I saw a fan art of adult him huge and buff/beef cake with long but still kinda spiky hair similar to l Ryoma from Fire Emblem Fates or Like Axel/Lea from Kingdom Hearts (that might of been not helping ) and I feel attracted to that specific version of him. Like very, very, specifically, even other fanarts of a grown up versions of him just doesn't hit me without that hair or him without long hair and idk why. I don't normally feel attracted to someone bc of physical qualities so I cannot even phantom an explainstion😅😂

LIKE THIS PICTURE RIGHT HERE, THIS EXACT PICTURE STARTED IT I HAD TO GO FIND IT and it just makes me feel mushy everytime, credit in alt text:

So like when I watch the anime or read the manga it just feels like looking at an old school picture book, photo albums and videos at MOST. Like PRECIOUS BEAN, I protecc. That is a child, a puppy. I could NEVER. And then I see the fan adult version of him and I swear it's like two brothers?? or a dad and son??? but it's the same character and like...?? It makes me feel real weird and awkward bc like... yeah he has Kirishima's personality 1:1 but I don't feel that way about actual canon Kirishima myself as that is A HUGE NO. That is a baby in my eyes.💀🤢 Like I legitimately usually watch/read with me thinking of me/my sona as married to Aizawa and helping the class or with Keigo/Hawks. (Or a sane, au version of Touya/Dabi but that's less typical bc the canon one also is a big no for me, he is scary 😬😰)

This also has happened with Bakugo and Shouto too later, like.... y'all need to stop with the adult versions of them bc they're making me feel things which are kinda controversial (at least on TikTok) which makes me feel kinda anxious about it all 😵‍💫, and then like I create two versions of them in my head because I just love the fandom adult versions of them??? And it feels separate from the canon version?

And at least with TikTok's climate I couldn't tell many people this in like comments, bc they immediately assume I am a predator- which like esp if not specified I can get 💯 but like. It's not like that 💀 I stumbled upon some fan art of a guy who could be his elder brother or father and like that is who I like.

Is this somewhat normal or just me??? 😭😰

Calling all fanfic writers!

Here are a few fanfic prompts that are basically free real-estate...

because I suck at writing fanfics

Anyway..

Here we go:

Idea 1.

Is a demon slayer x Tokyo ghoul Isekai crossover: in which juuzou suzuya gets hit by either truck-kun or train-kun (whichever one idc) while hunting a ghoul and ends up getting Isekai'd into demon slayer during the Mugen train arc. Basically making a lot of changes to the story and weirding out alot of people with his psychopath ways. This is also essentially a rengoku lives au. Because juuzou looks like a girl dispite actally being a dude and that saves rengoku's life from akaza. Because I mean look at this guy⬇️

Akaza is going to be so confused😂😂😂

Also imagine...

Juuzou using a motherf***ing nichirin scythe!

Idea 2.

This is a demon slayer time-travel/Isekai: basically in this one, rengoku toujuro (senjuro's descendant from the end of the manga) gets sent back in time to the Taisho era. specifically landing on top of rengoku kyojuro as he is on his way to tanjiro's trial. He then goes on to meet the rest of the other rengoku's of that time period and lives with them for awhile. He maybe even might learn flame breathing and kick demon ass until he gets sent back to his time😁

I got this idea from some art I saw on Pinterest. This is the culprit ⬇️

Idea 3.

Is essentially a my hero academia x demon slayer crossover: basically instead of dying rengoku kyojuro wakes up in bnha. Yeah he got Isekai'd. Anyway...

He basically ends up becoming a pro-hero or maybe a vigilante.

If he takes the pro-hero route. I see him finding izuku before all might, and training him in art of flame breathing and helping him on his way to becoming a quirkless pro-hero.

Or...

If he takes the vigilante route. One of things I want to see written for sure is he finds dabi before he joins the l.o.v and helps him get on a better path than what he is going on (also help him with his daddy issues & his sibling issues 😂) and have alot of weird shenanigan adventures together. Yeah I definitely need to see this dynamic: dark broody fire boy x happy sunshine fire boi (not a ship by the way)

got this idea from this⬇️

Anyway....

That is currently all the prompt ideas I have for now

So feel free to take these ideas and write them into full fanfics

After all...

They are free real-estate 😁

P.s. all art is not mine. They all belong to their respective artists. Thank you.

my ideal wataru center event

dont like she/her wataru? dont read!

OK. SO.

wataru loooves movies. wataru frequents a movie rental shop, which isnt doing so well in terms of buisness. shes like the only frequent customer. this is of course due to the rise of streaming services, which wataru is quite opposed to, as a movie conissuer (expecially older movies).

the unbloomed is wataru walking out of the movie rental place, happy because shes got an idea for helping keep the shop open! she holds a bag of movies, and says hi to anzu, who wasnt going to stop by the rental shop, but wataru wants to introduce her to the owners so they go in together.

wataru is like "if a movie or tv show is exclusive to streaming services, which many are nowdays, theyre liable to just disappear one day. and disappearing is a fun trick, but not for movies!! movies shouldnt disappear - people put hard work into them, time, money, skill, and most of all, passion!"

anzu is like I Agree Wataru. and anzu rents a movie from her childhood that she hasnt been able to find on any streaming sites. wataru has a far off look on her face when anzu tells her this,

and then we are with fine, and wataru is talking with them about raising awareness about the decline of movie rental shops and the problem of streaming services getting rid of tv shows and movies, virtually erasing them and making it hard to find so many titles... its clear wataru is quite passionate about this, and eichi is all for it too.

fine visit the movie rental shop together, and wataru reveals she went here nearly every week when she was little, even when she didnt have any money to spend she loved looking through all the movies, helping others pick out what to rent, talking to the staff, and it brings her great nostalgia to think about. those were the good old days, before streaming services dominated the movie and tv world.

fine rent a couple movies, some from their childhoods and some theyve never watched before, and then they have a big watchparty with popcorn and snacks (eichis unbloomed he has an enormous pretzel 🥨 and for tori and yuzurus 3 stars unbloomed they have candy 🍬 and popcorn🍿)

watarus movie is one she recalls being her favorite as a kid, but it actually lowkey sucks. the plot makes no sense and parts of the set that shouldnt be visible are visible, a character that she loved as a kid seems really mean now, and no one is laughing at the jokes - because they just arent funny.

toris movie is spy kids. classic! we all loved spy kids!

yuzuru had specifically asked for the newest movie they had, and that was a boring and manufactured very long superhero movie that felt more like pumped out content for money than a work of cinematic art, which wataru was quick to point out.

eichi picked american psycho, to yuzurus dismay, and eichi is like Just jokingggg me and wataru are going to watch it together later tho. I Got Kimetsu No Yaiba Mugen Train!!!!!! and everyones like Yayyy!!!!

later, yuzuru and tori went back to their room, and eichi is taking about how his favorite show is the one wataru starred in as a child. it was mainly a magic show, but wataru also went to different places arround the world and met people who did a variety of impressive things and tried them out. acrobatics, sculpting, baking, soccer, go karting, even drag in one episode, wataru certainly did a lot! she also collected a new mask in nearly every episode. it started when wataru was arround six or seven, and ended when she started middle school.

wataru says she tries to only think about the fun parts of doing that show, but there was a lot of turmoil behind the scenes, and often she didnt want to do it at all. was she mistreated? well, probably. but we are all mistreated as children, no? wataru takes solace in the fact that eichi loved her show, and it brought smiles to him and many other children. theres nothing anyone can do to go back in time and fix child watarus life, so wataru doesnt dwell on it.

fine has been working on their new song, and they were going to do a simple mv, but wataru is like Lets Put More Amazing Into This!!! and it develops into a super flashy carnival themed video with a totally banger song, starring lots of birds, and fine, going arround and winning every carnival game and making carnival snacks for one another. it ends with everyone on a ferris wheel, joyous and united!

also eichi gives the movie rental shop a shit ton of money LOL problem solved

the outfits are like. rainbow and metallic and wataru has her hair in double braids tied with ribbons and everyone else has some sort of fun hat Ok Byeeeee i might remove the tags lol
