#tanjiro screaming at muzan oh god

[risingscorchingsuns]

OHHH MY GOD YOU CANT MAKE ME WAIT A FUCKING WEEK FOR THIS. YOU CANT MAKE ME WAIT A WEEK FOR THE MUZAN KAGAYA CONFRONTATION YOU CANT DO THIS TO ME. FUCKING HELL OH MY GODDDD

hiiiii im feeling so normal right now!!!!!!!!!!!! *barely contained frenzy of biting and screaming*

anyway thoughts on this weeks ep!!! <3

- tanjiro. please. please i love you baby but i will never understand why you decided it was a good idea to go “🥺 are you fighting about ohagi? ill make lots!!” tanjiro honey they are TRAINING

-/pos btw. I love him he’s iconic for this

-shoutout to giyuu for immediately finding out about Sanemi’s favorite food and being like “:) if I bring some to him we’ll be best friends :)” giyuu sweetheart i love you. ive been waiting so long to see this scene animated god I love them. im not even much of a sanegiyuu shipper i just think this whole scene is iconic

- the ECHOES of muzan’s FOOTSTEPS right after Sanemi realizes they’ve been infiltrated????? holy fuck it is CHILLING. ohhhhhh mygoooodddd. oh my god im going INSANE

- holy shit, I feel like it’s massively under-discussed how dark Gyomei’s backstory is. Like… the whole scene really pounds it in how brutal his experiences were. His disgust at having to fight, much beyond what a normal human would tolerate. He likely had to keep caving the demon’s head in over and over because it kept regenerating. Holy shit. The color choice of everything being monochrome except for the blood is particularly chilling. I love when media uses that palette and KNY does it so good

- AUGHHHH his smile when he pats tanjiro 🥺🥺🥺 he thinks about Sayo…. GOD I love the Hashira

- I’d love to read more character analysis on Gyomei. I feel like we didn’t get as much context for his character as we deserved- why he continued to fight, despite how disgusted he is by his own strength, why he trained Genya despite his general distrust, especially towards children? Ultimately, I believe it comes down to Gyomei being a genuinely gentle human, and I’d love to read more analysis on how he maintains that. Maybe his own repetitive action helps him. I wrote a big paragraph about questions about his character, but wound up deleting it because I found myself answering them as I wrote. Regardless, if Gyomei is anybody’s blorbo to the extent that Kyojuro is mine I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts on him- I think he’s a massively underrated character and I’d love to understand him deeper!

-OUGHHH THE MUSIC!!!!!!! god I am LOVING the theme they did with the sanegiyuu fight that shit went CRAZYYYY. and the ANIMATION. look im biased because i love the way water breathing looks but godddd its so pretty. also drop ripple thrust mentioned!!!! we haven’t seen that form since Susamaru!!!

-is the next episode gonna be the last in this season?????????? where are they cutting this off?????? god i wish i could reread the manga but i lent the set to a friend so he could read it pain agony MY CROSS REFERENCES

- [MANGA SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT]

-I’m presuming Zenitsu’s letter was about his Master’s suicide, and Kaigaku’s transformation. I think it was really clever of ufotable to put this scene in Gyomei’s episode, and put spotlights on Kaigaku being the kid that first betrayed Gyomei- I think that fact was only actually mentioned in a Taisho Era Secret. That’s gonna blow a lot of minds in the finale arc lol

-I wish we got more development on Zenitsu in this arc. His processing of the letter, his departure from Tanjiro and the others. I think Zenitsu is also a really misunderstood character, and this arc doesn’t exactly do him many favors in that regard. I wish we’d gotten a bit of filler vis-a-vis his development, but I’m hoping we still get that in his fight with Kaigaku.

Kokushibo, leading the uppermoons into a Halloween haunted house: *just moving along, simply not caring*

Douma: This place is so pretty! I love this place! Maybe we should ask Lord Muzan if he’ll buy it for- *hides against Kokushibo as he gets scared by an actor*

Akaza: I’m not looking. I’m not looking. Is anyone guiding me? I don’t feel any hands guiding me! Uhhh this hand is not Douma or Kokushibo. Whose hand is this? Oh god, I’m touching a scare actor. Please don’t kill me. Pretty please?

Sekido: It’s fine, this is fine. See? No danger at a- *girlish screaming as a scare actor jumps out to scare him*

Karaku: Oh hi! Hey Muichiro! Hi Genya! Hello Tanjiro! Ooooh, nice costume, Rengoku. You can’t keep Akaza forever, though, so give him back after the tour. Hi, Nezuko!

Urogi, hiding against Karaku: Don’t touch me, don’t touch me, don’t touch me!

Aizetsu: *sobbing*

Daki: Don’t hold me so tight! You’re a grown man! Why are you acting like a toddler! It’s just some people in scary looking costumes! It’s practically you being scared of a kid dressed as Dracula!

Gyutaro: If I let go, I die. Get me out of here! I hate this! Walk faster, Daki! I want to go home! I feel nauseous! I feel sick! I hate this!

oh my god. oh my god. do you think nezuko opened the door that night because she thought it was tanjiro and when she saw muzan instead, wondered how far away he was that he couldn't hear them screaming

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - Koyoharu Gotouge Volumes 1-6 running commentary *ANIME SPOILERS!

-Sooo… here we are.

-Dear Demon Slayer manga. I have a nagging, unsettling suspicion that you could actually break my heart. Please don’t, yeah? :)

-Everyone (and by everyone I mean the Tanjiro, Nezuko and Giyu that I’ve seen so far) looks five years younger in the manga.

-Manga!Giyu looks like a child, omg, in the anime he seems in his early twenties.

-Yeah no, I checked, he IS supposed to be 19 in chapter one, God he looks so young.

-I’m sorry, but I think it’s such an iconic moment when Giyu slashes off Tanjiro’s ponytail.

-Omg, Nezuko is biting Giyu’s clothes, help.

-Will we (=Tanjiro) learn to go whoosh-whoosh and disappear like the Hashira do

-“How many demons are there?” Oh, Tanjiro, bb.

-I hope Tanjiro does buy Nezuko a beautiful kimono some day :’)

-What’s interesting to me, and this happened with Black Butler too, is that my affections don’t carry over from anime to manga. I was amazed to discover in Black Butler that I didn’t instantly get to like Ciel or whoever in the manga just because I got to like them in the anime- I had to warm up to them, and the same goes for Demon Slayer. It’s like getting to know everyone anew, and the reason I find this interesting is that I’m reading the manga *because* of the anime, and yet.

-I am asking respectfully. Urokodaki really doesn’t want to see another of his students killed. So. If Tanjiro impales himself on his traps during training. Then what. “Oh well”?

-Aw, I really liked Makomo and Sabito in the anime, it’s nice to see them again.

-Oh my little Tanjiro, I’m tearing up at his kindness with the Final Selection demon.

-Love that Zenitsu has a sparrow and just no one addresses it, like yes, here are your crows, now let’s move on.

-Urokodaki hugging both Nezuko and Tanjiro makes me cry, like at that moment, for this one instant, we’re safe.

-So okay, if only Muzan can turn humans into demons, then when Mugen Train demon tries to get Rengoku to agree to become a demon, what he actually means is that he’ll take him to Muzan to make him a demon, right? Not that he’ll do it himself.

-Love the first panel of Tanjiro and Muzan side by side. Love it.

-“Those earring – shiver.” SHIVER? Man, who was Tanjiro’s dad, what happened

-Oh EVERYONE looks younger in the manga than the anime, okay.

-Imagine calling Nezuko a hag. Ridiculous.

-Okay, so Yushiro is the only non-Muzan demon. Okay.

-Oh no way, manga!Zenitsu doesn’t share Tanjiro’s rice ball? Interesting, interesting.

-The little question mark bubble over Nezuko’s box, I can’t.

-I’ve warmed up to Zenitsu much faster in the manga, probably because it’s funnier when all his screaming is in silent letters than him screaming in my ear from the get-go.

-Zenitsu, man, he’s so cool when he fights, idk.

-Giyu is a GREAT P.E. teacher, okay, don’t let that stupid PTA make… I mean... erhm… hm.

-I understand Zenitsu is afraid of demons, but I find it fascinating that when against a human (Inosuke), he stood up for Tanjiro and his ~box with everything he had.

-I’ll give you that- I couldn’t stop watching the fights in the anime and I can’t stop reading the fights in the manga, you just want to see what happens next.

-Zenitsu’s moral compass: Tanjiro.

-I don’t quite understand what happens with Inosuke’s mother. She throws him off the cliff?

-Giyuuuuu

-Can I just say, I find it really smart that Rui cut his head off before Tanjiro could do it and end him

-Giyu is so… calm and concentrated, argh, I love him. He just up and went and developed a new eleventh form himself that only he can do, what, like it’s hard?

-Ah shut up, Rui’s story makes me tear up.

-I love how the demons’ appearance evolves the more demonic they become.

-Also, Shinobu. I kinda love her too, she’s terrifying.

-Jesus Christ, the Hashira look so young compared to the anime.

-Wait wait wait, so the fact that Muzan’s curse is removed from Nezuko means that he knows where she is, but not what she’s thinking?

-This feels like a good time to stop this commentary, because we’re approaching intense-storytelling territory.

3rd pov

Sexual Content is included move on if not comfortable with

Includes:masturbation, but plug, dildo, getting caught, slight degrading rough and passionate sex, multiple orgasms, sexual frustrated Obanai.

Request by:EMOPHASEWHENIWASAKID

(Some parts by me other by the Request..)

(if you read American boy here is your smut that I never added. Taisho era)

For almost two years the sun pillar was sent away on an expedition mission to northern Japan, the rumor of the blue spider lily was heard around. A rumor that sounded so true that Muzan may go there himself.

The pillar wasn't sent for the flower he was sent for the upper moon that could be sent or the demon lord himself.

Leaving behind his younger siblings, Tanjiro and Nezuko who was demon. He was also leaving his lover. Iguro Obanai the serpent pillar.

Obanai understood reasons they sent him. He could handle the cold and could handle the upper moon without and problems..its just..

Its been two whole years without him. That meant no one to come home to at their home. Kaburamaru had no ball of sunshine that could let him sleep in his hair. But for obanai it was worst.

Two years sexually frustrated.

Obanai has tried many things even taken suggestions from others. Nothing. 

He could get off on just memories or the kimono's he wore that were left behind. He has sent letters but most were professional ones. Not any promising any punishment or any reward when he would return. It would get to were he would put a but plug in his ass just to satisfy the itch that his lovers cock could get to.

He had to be feeling the same way? Right?

Or was someone else pleasuring him? No he couldn't, Obanai knew. Only he could satisfy his lover the best.

The serpent pillar sat on the back patio of his shared home. For the time being he had finished taking another nap. He had a dream about a fantasy about his lover returning and fucking him ruthlessly.

But a dream is only as good as you make it.

He walked back to the futon on the floor. Feeling the arousal slowly makings its way out of his tight heat. The but plug wasn't going to work anymore. He needed something fucking him, penetrating him.

Pulling the (favorite color) toy out of his hole, leaving it gaping and stretched. Obanai whined at the loss full feeling. But he got up and went into the bathroom. In a small black box were a box full of toys Obanai had even before meeting his lover.

But after meeting him..they weren't needed at all.

Obanai squatted and looked inside for the dildo he wanted. He found one that was about 5 and half inches and was a good 2 inches wide. It should do for now.

In these two years he has been a horny mess. Constantly needing something to please him and the uphill battle of his needs. He just wanted his lover back to please all those needs. 

God it was infuriating.

Obanai's own cock was still hard as when he woke up from his nap. Tip red and need of attention. It was painful but still didn't go away. He just could not finish.

Obanai sat down on the silicone dildo and moaned at the feeling. it wasn't a bratty or a desirable one just a moan of something inside him. It filled a good percent but not enough to reach his prostate. Obanai started to move up and down, bouncing on the dildo.

His white kimono slipping off his shoulders, showing his smooth skin and none marked skin. that was another whole problem he didn't like. 

Trying to get down to the hilt of the dildo to at least graze his prostate to ease the itch, he was moaning and gasping at the fullness. Maybe this time his needs would be met.

Obanai was stroking himself and teasing his nipples, the sensitive buds were being pulled at and pinched, leaving the pillar awe struck. 

Moaning his lovers name as if it was a cry or a plea. Obanai speed up his pace, moving to lye on his back and use his hands. One hand stroking himself the other using the dildo to fuck himself. He was so close, eyes becoming glossy at the feeling. 

"(M?N) FUCK~! Fuck, fuck, shit, please my love come fuck me.." he was crying for his dear lover. The dildo wasn't hitting the right spots no more, and the itch grew even more harsh. His toes curling and his head thrown back on the futon.

"Why when your obviously doing it yourself? Having a hard time getting off my cute little baby?"

Obanai froze. His eyes snap open to see his love sitting cross legged on the opposite side of the room. He was in his uniform, (favorite color) but plug in hand inspecting it. "So this is what you have been doing while I have been away. Begging me to come home and fuck you silly like the slut you are? That's quite surprising isn't it."

His words weren't hurtful just teasing. Obanai could see the large bugle growing in his pants. The sun pillar had his hair down which rested the floor. His uniform at the top was slightly unbuttoned at the showing his chest and abdomen. His eyes had bags under them. But his eyes..

Something Obanai has only seen a handful of times.

Eyes were darker and burning with a lust. His stare and hoarse voice was enough to set the tone.

Obanai felt his cock twitch and he moaned out a spur of curses. 

"Now your having dry orgasms by just my appearance? You must be a desperate little whore today aren't you?" He didn't move from his spot what so ever.

Just drinking in on his expression. It was filling and made both Obanai and (M/n) twitch.

"Please, my love its been two fucking years with out you,please fuck me.." The sun pillar chuckled. "So my cutie is begging to be fucked? That's unlike you Obanai. If you can fuck yourself can't yo get off?"

Obanai groaned at the teasing. He just wanted him to fuck him. 

The an idea came to him.

His lover looked too calm for him. He needed him to get to his level of arousal, by being a fucking brat about things. if he wanted to get fucked he needed to do more.

"No."

The eyes on the sun pillar widen. 

"Why no then cutie? I just saw you so continue."

"No. I want you to fuck me. Unless you've lost your touch." Obanai said getting a little more confident. If keep going he would get the punishment he deserved.

"If my dildo was that close than what says you? I've used them plenty since you left two years ago. SO why don't you come over here and fuck me. Or has the sun pillar found a better bottom bitch to fuck?"

That set the fuel to the flame.

Calm and collected turned to possessive and aroused.

(M/n) was possessive of Obanai, he loved him and only him. Insinuating that he found a better person to fuck made the calm pillar pissed. Obanai knew this, because his lover can get jealous and possessive he knew what he did.

And is getting what he wanted.

The sun pillar was on Obanai in less than a second.

Choking his neck tightly and pinning his hands above his head. Eyes that were usually full of love and kindness, were dark with lust and irritation. He knew his words were empty but couldn't let it up.

"Why when I have a bratty bottom slut here? You want to piss me off for a good fuck cutie? You want me to pound you, make sure you can't walk for a fucking year?"

Obanai had another dry orgasm from his words. This is what two years of a pent up sun pillar was..

Then he should be sent off more often. ( Empty threat.) He hasn't even touched him fully for him to even think like that. The red headed male unbuttoned the rest of his uniform, not having the patience to take off all of his clothes. He undid the belt, taking the hands off of Obanais wrist.

His cock sprung free.

Oh how Obanai wanted to suck him off and tease him. But now wasn't the time.

(M/n) pulled the dildo out and scowled at it.

"Such a pathetic size, this trying to please your for that long, no wonder you couldn't get off cutie..don't worry we'll fix that..

positioning him at Obana's desperate hole, he slammed into him.

"Now!"

Obanai threw his head back and scream. His cock spurted long ropes of cum. Something he couldn't do until now.

"Cumming already? We just started, you really were a desperate slut?" He slammed into him again. Ever word followed a thrust, each time hitting Obanai's prostate and making his see stars. (M/n)'s past wasn't fast or slow. Just from Obanai challenging him made him almost bust a load.

The hand around Obanai's neck tightened, pushing on certain spots to not restrict air, just to make him a little dizzy. Obanai's toes curled as his lover slammed his cock into his tight heat all while degrading him.

His reward.

(M/n) pushed his legs to his chest, making his cock go even deeper into Obanai's dripping heat. He was truly surprised, he was that pent up himself. He didn't even have time to masturbate himself on the expedition.

"Fuck, my cutie your so cute looking fucked out of your mind. Is that what you wanted? To get fucked stupid by me?"

Incoherent word mumbled back a response.

"Yes..please~ fuck..*hic* me more~" He was hiccuping from the tears. The long haired pillar nodded and made sure to aim for his prostate and to basically abuse it as best as he could. Sweat ran down his forehead, making his hair stick to it. The white shirt underneath the black on was sticking to the sides of his torso.

Obanai's eyes had tears brimming out, drool slipping from his lips. His hands held his legs to his chest, hair spread out on the futon all around him. Moans and shouts, hollers and begs came out of his mouth without a care of who heard.

That's what the larger pillar wanted. he wanted anyone and everyone hear his beloved getting fucked out of his mind.

"Such a good little slut..you want the whole village and headquarters to hear your getting a good fuck cutie? You want them to hear you getting pounded by your lover? How you begged and been a bratty  bitch with a fucking plug between your legs? You want to be seen as my slut then I will make you my slut."

He pulled out of Obanai's tight and puckered out hole, flipping him face first into the futon. Using his foot to keep him in place and rammed back into him and a faster pace. Obanai's moans and screams were blocked from the futon mat he was getting fucking into.

 His cock spurted more roped of cum even though it wasn't touched.  His lover feverishly gripping and slapping his ass for good measure.

"God fuck, i'm going to cum and fill your little whore hole kay? I need you to tell me who the fuck gets to fuck your bratty ass kay cutie?"

Mumbles came as an answer. (M/n) making and annoyed noise, pushed his foot harder on Obanai's head. "Can't hear you cutie, you don't get my cum if i can't hear you like fucking you. Again and louder.  Why can fuck this bratty ass cutie?"

"Y-you.."

"Louder cutie!" He removed his foot from his head and pushed his chest into Obanai's back, teasing his over sensitive nipples and continued slamming into him.

"LOUDER."

"FuCk~ YOU DO!" Obanai had tears all over his face, face read and a mess.

"Good now let me fill you with cum like the slut your are. Such a pretty cutie for me." As he said that another orgasm ran through Obanai. It was becoming painful a little.

Obanai's babbles were filled with begs about being his cumslut and filling him to the brink. With one final thrust, making the smaller male see stars again. His desperate prostate and hole was filled with thick and large amounts of the larger's cum.

Emptying himself out, Obanai's hole was milking him dry of the desperate need that was begging to be released. His loved pushed deeper to make sure he took all he had to offer.

He slowly pulled out of his stretched and abused hole, gaping at the loss of contact and fullness. Obanai screamed again while being filled and also came again. He could feel his lovers seed push out of his hole and onto the futon below them.

Pushing the hair out of his face, (M/n) looked at the sight his lover was him. The demon slayer below him, the feared serpent pillar of the demon slayer headquarters looked as if he had been drugged.

Well he was, off of his lovers addicting seed, smell and cock.

"You did so well cutie, such a good slut. See if you follow instructions you could get fucked like this more often instead of pissing me off kay?"

This even only made Obanai want to be even more of a brat to him.

‘Singing Voice’

Zenitsu x Nezuko

Inspired by @demonslayedher’s comic.

Pronouns used for Nezuko: he/she/they.

Pronouns used for Zenitsu: none mentioned.

Warnings: MAJOR Demon Slayer manga spoilers.

Three months.

It’s been three months since the demon king, Kibutsuji Muzan, has been defeated. Ever since then, me and Inosuke have been living in Tanjiro and Nezuko-chan’s house. They’re the kindest people I’ve met. They give us food, clothes, and a place to sleep. I couldn’t ask for more.

“Zenitsu! There you are!” Nezuko peeps into my room, her sound as gentle and bright as it’s always been. Ah, it’s Nezuko? Nezuko? NEZUKOOO?!

 I sit up in my bed, wearing the dumbest smile on my face. “Nezuko-chaaan!” I sing, hugging my fiancé.

Nezuko-chan giggles. God, it’s so heavenly. “Good morning, Zenitsu. How did you sleep?”

“I slept amazingly! I’m still tired, but not anymore with you around!”

“That’s good!” Nezuko-chan holds my hands- HER HANDS ARE SO SOFT!!!- and smiles. “I was wondering if you wanted to-“

“YES!!” I scream. Nezuko blinks for a few seconds, looking confused. “Ah, sorry.” I say, “I got excited.”

 Nezuko smiles again. “Well, ever since we got here, I noticed you never went exploring. Would you like to go exploring with me?”

 Exploring? With Nezuko? Seeing her pretty face under the sunlight? HOLDING HANDS?!

“YES!!!” I scream. “I’d love to, Nezuko-chan! Just give me one second, and I’ll be ready!”

“Okay! I’ll be waiting outside of the house.”

 As soon as Nezuko-Chan leaves my room, I slam my head into the pillow, screaming. A date with Nezuko-chan! NEZUKO-CHAN!! Oh, this is the best day of my life! Please don’t be a dream! Even if it is a dream, I don’t want to wake up until the date is over! Once I finish changing my clothes, I meet Nezuko outside of the house. The cold bites at my nose, making me sneeze.

“I’m never getting used to this.” I grumble.

“Was it warmer where you lived?” Nezuko-chan inquires.

“Yeah... It was so much warmer...” I giggle, a wide smile forming. “Maybe if you held me, then I’ll feel warrm.”

“We can do that once we’re done.” Nezuko’s lips are pressed into a thin line.

“Ah. Okay.” I die a little bit.

“Anyways, the first place I want to take you is the place I go to pick vegetables! There aren’t that many trees, so it’s a good place for a picnic when the summer comes!”

A picnic? A picnic with Nezuko-Chan? Eating the food that he made? Holding hands? Eating under the sun? Seeing their face glow under the sun? HOLDING HANDS?!

My face heats up, and I scream for the second time that day. “PICNIC?! WITH NEZUKO-CHAN?! I NICE PICNIC?! PICNIC?! NEZUKO-CHAN?! HOLDING HANDS?? NO, NO! MY HEART CAN ONLY TAKE SO MUCH!!”

 Nezuko’s soft hands touch mine, and his fingers wrap- WE’RE HOLDING HANDS!! WE’REHOLDING HANDS WE’RE HOLDING HANDS WE’RE HOLDING HANDS!!

 I giggle uncontrollably at the feeling of Nezuko’s hand holding mine. I can hear some confusion within her, but it’s overshadowed by adoration. Nezuko-chan adores me!! I couldn’t ask for a better fiancé!

“We’re here!” My fiancé's voice snaps me out of my thoughts. We were moving? I guess I didn’t notice...

 In front of us is a clearing filled with snow. Save for the few animal tracks, it’s undisturbed.

“I sometimes go here to pick vegetables, but... back then, me and my family would go on picnics every summer... it was nice.” Nezuko looks to the floor. She’s smiling, her heart strumming a tune of longing. He longs for his family, he longs for what used to be.

 Hoping to give Nezuko-chan some comfort, I squeeze their hand. Nezuko-chan looks at me, her eyes glossy.

“Oh, um, sorry for getting lost in thought. I just... well, y’know, the usual.” They explain. Before I can say anything, they speak again, their tone a cheery one. The tune of longing slightly lingers. “Oh, by the way! This reminds me: back when we were kids, my mother would sing me a lullaby. Is it okay if I sing it?”

 A... A song? Sung by Nezuko-chan? NEZUKO-CHAN THEMSELLLLF?! OH, THIS IS A BLESSING, A BLESSING! WHAT DOES THEIR VOICE SOUND LIKE? ANGELIC? IT MUST BE! A PERFECT VOICE FOR A PERFECT ANGEL LIKE NEZUKO-CHAN!

“I’d love to hear you sing!” I sing.

“Okay!” Nezuko clears her throat. I bounce on my feet, expectantly waiting. This is it! Moment of truth! Nezuko’s beautiful voice!

“KnOcK kNoCk, LiTtLe BuNnY-”

 I scream in horror. THAT VOICE! IT’S THE WORST VOICE I’VE EVER HEARD! IT’S SO SCRATCHY, AND GRAINY! IT SOUNDS LIKE A DEMON’S VOICE, BUT WORSE! MY EARS COULD BLEED FROM THIS!!!!

 I fall onto the cold snow, my body giving out from under me. It was so bad, my body couldn’t take it anymore…! I fall asleep.

[vulpes-z3rda]

how you met them

a/n: how are we all feeling?? i apologise if the writing isn’t the best, its old content from my wattpad that i’m moving across!!

Tanjiro

Well, you met at the Final Selection. He was running through the wisteria flowers on the trees and had finally reached the end of it all. Before he could walk further into the opening, he walked right into someone. "Hey. Watch where you're walking, will you?" You grumbled, saddened by the loss of your friends in the forest. He gulped at your facial expression and rubbed the nape of his neck in embarrassment. "Ah, I'm sorry... I'm Tanjiro Kamado! It's nice to meet you..." He trailed off not knowing your name. You huffed and gave him a small smile. "Y/n... Y/n L/n! It's nice to meet you too Kamado-Kun!" He smiled and walked with you over to the twins that stood before you all to explain your swords. "I hope we work together L/n-Chan." Giggling you nodded. "Me too!" With that, the pair of you stood together, a sense of pride and happiness surrounding you both. "Hey, Kamado-Kun?" You said quietly. "Hmm? What's wrong?" He asked, concerned about you. "I promise to protect you and stay by your side!" You pledged with a wide smile. He chuckled and nodded. "I promise to do the same L/n-Chan."

Inosuke

You both met at the butterfly estate. You had already become a demon hunter and was working under Rengoku. This is what attracted him to you originally. I mean Rengoku was strong so in his mind, you would be a worthy opponent to fight right? He was right about that, however, he could never get to ask. So he charged at you with his pig assault as he usually does. "Huh? What happened?" You asked in a daze as he'd made you hit your head rather harshly on the floor. "Fight me!!" He yelled as steam came out of his boar mask's nose. "Get off me, you idiot!!" You yelled as you pushed him off you and stood up dusting yourself off. That was until you froze and looked up at him in pure rage. "You... YOU RIPPED MY HAORI INOSUKE!!!! YOU DUMBASS!!" You screeched as you chased after him. "AHAHA!!! ARE YOU GONNA FIGHT ME NOW Y/N!?" He yelled back in near-psychotic joy. "Fight you? I'm gonna beat your ass, you damned idiot!!" You quietly threatened as you ran at him. "Rengoku? Shouldn't we stop this?" Tanjiro asked as he and Zenitsu stood beside him. "Hmmm, no. Let them teach young Inosuke a lesson."

Zenitsu

You were the baker's daughter at a village at the foot of a mountain a few miles east of the Demon Slayer Corps. For two weeks teens and children had been going missing, adults had started to go too. So naturally, people began to suspect a demon was behind the disappearances. Your village elder sent for some demon slayers to come and help but it was too late. "HELP! PLEASE, SOMEONE!!" You screamed as a demon had begun to chase you after killing your father. "No one is coming to help you, brat!" He screeched as he pinned you by the neck to the wall of a house. A flash of yellow flew past you and stopped to your left. "HEY! Get your hands off them!" A blonde boy yelled as he drew a sword out on the demon. "Ah, a slayer? This should be fun..." He smirked as he dropped you to the ground. Before he could even react, the blonde had sliced his head off. "Are you okay?" He asked with obvious tears in his eyes. "No.. my dad... he killed him!!" You wailed in pain. "Hey... come with me so we can protect you. My name is Zenitsu." He exclaimed trying to comfort you. You stood up and grabbed his hand. "I'm y/n... please don't leave me Zenitsu.." You whimpered, scared of anything and everything at that moment. "I wouldn't dream of it Y/n-Chan."

Giyu

You were a simple first aider at the Demon Corps who worked under Shinobu at the butterfly estate. At first, he gave you no attention. I'll be honest, he didn't even know who you were. That all changed when he was injured after a mission in a village that had more demons than anticipated. Aoi and Shinobu had forced him to go to you as you were one of the best aiders there. "Y/n? We have one more for you to help." Aoi sai giving you a slight smile. "Hmm? Ah, okay. Just place him on that bed there and I'll get right to it and help him." You stated blandly looking at them with dull e/c eyes. Despite this, upon seeing him, they lit up slightly. "You were injured on a mission right Tamioka-San?" You asked as you cleaned his cuts. He looked at you curiously and nodded. "How do you know my name?" He asked blandly. "It's my business to know everyone who Shinobu works alongside so I can welcome them if I need to. I'm Y/n L/n by the way." A small, unnoticeable chuckle left his lips as you bandaged his wounds. "Thank you L/n." You smiled at him and carried on. "I'm simply doing my job, there's no need to thank me."

Muzan

He was strolling through a random village in which he knew demons had been attacking continuously for a few days or so. The pained cries of devastated families were like music to his sinful ears. What can I say? He has lived for a thousand years and has come to enjoy killing humans and seeing them as less than worth sparing. Well... that was until he saw you. A particularly aggressive demon had trapped you in an alleyway. "Oh god... I'm going to die..." You whispered as the demon lifted his hand to hit you. Now he was just as confused as you must have been when he grabbed the demon and immediately snapped its head clean off. "Sir? How did you..." You looked up into his eyes and for some reason calmed down. Heaving out a sigh he helped you up and helped you. "Thank you for saving me... I'm Y/n L/n." He chuckled at the bluntness of your reply. "You're welcome. I'm... I'm Muzan." Smiling you kissed his cheek. "Thank you, Muzan.." A blush overcame his pale face and he smiled slightly. More to the point, he was surprised you hadn't recognised his name.

Genya

You met him before everything when you were both kids and grew up together. However, when your father was killed by a demon, your mum took you away from everything and forced you to move in with her friend Ubuyashiki Kagaya. It wasn't until he became a demon slayer did you meet again. "Y-y/n? Is that you?" He asked looking at you, unsure of whether he had called the right person or not. "Huh? Genya?" You asked in confusion. "Why're you here? You know where you are right?" You asked with a small smile. "I'm a demon slayer... where did you go way back then?" He mumbled as he walked up to you and hugged you. Giggling you shook your head and hugged back. "My mum brought me here and I was trained to be a demon slayer. I'm a pillar alongside your brother!" The shock on his face was priceless as he stared at you in disbelief. "YOU'RE A PILLAR!?"

Kyojuro

"I need to get away from here..." You whispered as you ran, well tried to, away from the demon who was once your brother. "Y/n!? Come back, I only want a piece of you and then I'll let you go~" He tormented gaining on you. "NO!" You yelled before tripping on a tree root. "Oh no... no no no." The crazed and human meat starved demon stared at you hungrily. "There you are." He growled as you scooted away from him. "B/n... please... please don't do this!" You cried. "Well, why would I spare y-" You looked up to see his head cut off and rolling over the floor and a tall blonde man stood there with a katana. "Are you okay?" He asked holding a hand out to help you up. "He... My brother... I." Stuttering for a reply you looked up at him crying. "Please... please don't leave me..." You begged quickly standing up and gripping onto his haori. He gave a small chuckle and patted your head to try and comfort you. "I won't... I'm Kyojuro Rengoku." After introducing himself, you pulled away and looked up at him. "I'm y/n. y/n l/n."

Sanemi

You were a demon much like Nezuko. You'd never eaten or harmed a human and wished to help them against Muzan and to make your situation better, it was Genya who brought you back to the Demon Slayer Corps. "Another one? Why are so many docile demons appearing??" Gyomei questioned as he stared at you. You smiled back at him and looked over to Genya. "What's gonna happen to me Genya?" The pillars looked on in shock, apart from Sanemi, and fussed over how you were able to talk. "Will you guys shut up? They're nothing amazing. Just another demon like that other one." He grumbled as he glared at you. Giggling you sauntered over to him. "Y/n? Don't annoy Sanemi..." Genya mumbled, being flustered about the demon he brought home annoying his brother. "I'm simply checking out something that's captured my interest!" A blush spread across the Wind Pillars face like an out of control wildfire. "Will you shut up? You're fucking annoying." You laughed and smiled tilting your head. "But I want to get to know you Sanemi-kun~" You teased and you smirked at him. "GENYA!! GET Y/N AWAY FROM ME BEFORE I HIT THEM!!" He shouted. "Sanemi!! Don't you dare!!" The pillars yelled as they held him back. "I'm going to like you a lot I think..." You said with a light blush.

Mitsuri

You met Mitsuri when she was on a mission with Obanai. You weren't the demon they were after but you know if they found you, they'd kill you. However, after seeing them fight and both become injured by the demon which has been terrorising the village you lived in, you decided you'd help them and heal their wounds. "You. You're a demon." Obanai glared at you after you had swiftly chopped the head of the demon off and turned to face them. "Yes. A demon that just helped you. I could've left you to suffer." You said as you kneeled beside Mitsuri and looked over her injuries. "Which ones hurt more?" You asked as you got ready to heal them. "These one do.." She whispered as she pointed to the deep scratches on her arm. "HEY! Get away from Mitsuri!!" Mitsuri told Obanai to calm down as a pink light surrounded her and her wounds healed rather quickly. "See Obanai? They helped me!" She exclaimed as she smiled at you. "You're another docile one... like the one that kid has." Obanai still glared as you turned to face him. "It's your turn. Let me help you." Reluctantly he allowed you to heal his wounds. "What's your name?" Mitsuri asked as you stood up and stretched. She smiled and walked closer to you, much to Obanai's dismay. "Y/n... y/n l/n." You answered as you went to turn and walk away. "Hey wait! You can come with us back to the Butterfly Estate! There's another demon there so you won't be alone and you can continue to help us!!" She exclaimed as she giggled at your confused expression. "Hmmm, I'd like that I think Mitsuri..." You said with a small smile. "Yayyyy!!! Come on!! Everyone is going to love you!!"

[demonslayedher]

As a Kimetsu and Kojiki nerd allow me to just say AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH Or I can try to keep this simple. This will not be a translation of the video, but an explanation of why I’m screaming about the Seventh Form of Thunder Breathing, Honoikazuchi-no-kami. EDIT: AND SCREAMING ABOUT A KAMADO CONNECTION STRONGER THAN I ORIGINALLY NOTICED, AHHHHHHHHHHH

Okay so. Guh. Where do I start.  To dive into the very basic background, the Kojiki is an 8th century collection of Shinto basic Shinto mythology and one of the primary myths is how the god couple Izanagi-no-mikoto and Izanami-no-mikoto together birthed the lands and godly population of Japan, but Izanami died giving birth to the fire god Kagutsuchi—whom, OH MY MUZAN, I DREW LIKE THE LITTLE CARETAKERS OF TANJIRO’S UNCONSCIOUS INNER SPACE, FUUUUUUDGE, I KNEW THOSE THINGS FELT FAMILIARRRRRR

(This is a panel from an old project in which I retold some of the Kojiki legends for the sake of introducing associated locations around the San’in region. Instead of retelling the whole legend here, this will make more sense if you just read that over here (you’ll want “To Yomi and Back Again” for this). I’ll borrow a few panels and photos as necessary here.) Oh dang, in the video this fox-nerd even mentions how Kagutsuchi is more of a commoner’s hearth god, which totally ties him in more with the Kamado family, and the charcoal associations are tied with protection from evil and purity, but I digress, I DIGRESS. So anyway, setting this little fire god aside, Izanami dies and goes to the underworld, Yomi. It’s not necessarily “hell” unless you’re following a mythology version that interprets hell as where all dead souls go instead of just the bad ones (after all, even Oyakata-sama says Rengoku-san won’t be lonely for long, since he’ll be heading to Yomi soon too, DON’T SAY THAT MAN, IT MAKES ME SAD—-and OHHHHHHH HANG ON, OYAKATA-SAMA, I GOT MORE TO SAY ABOUT YOU IN THIS POST). Izanagi, just like a certain character in Greek mythology, marches down to Yomi to bring her back, and ultimately that’s cool as long as he doesn’t look back and see her rotting flesh. And yeah, he does. Jerk.  He’s like, “ew, nevermind” and she’s the embodiment of “hell hath no fury like a woman scorned” and goes after him with a bunch of rotting women of hell whom Izanagi keeps off his back with your typical bag of mythology tricks, and then Izanami just right then and there births eight thunder gods at different parts of her body to shoot after him.  As the fox-nerd explains in the video, each of these named gods who only makes a very, veeeery brief appearance in the Kojiki, are thought to represent a different aspect of Thunder, like how the clouds get darker, the sound, the freshness in the air afterward, the ground being struck, etc. So then the one she bore at her chest, right at her heart, that one was called  火雷神, Honoikazuchi-no-kami. The 雷 is lightning, and you find a handful of lightning related gods with this is their name and pronounced “Ikazuchi.” The 火 is fire, so it is thought that this name is in reference to fires started by lightning, as opposed to the lightning itself.  BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE 1. The video mentions Honoikazuchi-no-kami is a very, very rarely mentioned god, but in noble people’s homes, rather than humble Kagutsuchi, Honoikazuchi is the god worshiped at the hearth. NO, I DIDN’T DIGRESS, LET ME KEEP GOING.  2. Fire seems like more of a Kamado thing, yes, but a video I saw the other day pointed out how the 照 in Yoshiteru’s name is in reference to the light of the sun (日) while the 燈 in Touko’s name (which means ‘lantern’) includes the radical for fire (火), thus bringing in more of Nezuko’s family history because ZENITSU’S WIFE IS IMPORTANT, YO 3. Kind of aside but back in that legend when Izanagi ran away to safety, there was a PEACH TREE outside the gate to Yomi

and Izanagi used those peaches in his escape from Yomi, which he then turned around and sealed with a rock.  (Lame photo, but this is the labeled peach tree at Yomotsu Hirasaka, the canonical but probably not the most popular hell-associated spot in Japan (AND BY THE WAY IT’S NOT FAR AT ALL FROM AN AREA THAT WAS FAMOUS IN THIS MYTHOLOGICAL PERIOD FOR MAKING MAGATAMA JEWELS LIKE THE ONES KAIGAKU WORE BUT SERIOUSLY I DIGRESS, TAMATSUKURI ONSEN IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE HOT SPRING AREAS ANYWAY AND EVERYONE SHOULD VISIT IT))

And then when they have their final parting they have this little symbolic exchange about how Izanami, now associated with death, will bring about death in the populace, while Izanagi, who was about to go on to birth a famous sun, moon, and storm god trio, blathered on about how he was going to keep bringing about new life. 

Now.  Now, when he said ‘birthing huts’ the word he used was ‘産屋’ (ubu-ya) but if you’d rather an upgrade to a mansion rather than a hut, we can do that with 産屋敷. As in… UBUYASHIKI.  GOSH, DANG IT, GOTOUGE, YOU BRILLIANT GATOR, YOOOOUUU!!! This is as far as I’m gonna go, but there’s a part of me jumping off a mental cliff screaming about how Izanagi and Izanami abandoned their first child who had no bones and how Zenitsu was abandoned and THAT MEANS ZENITSU IS EBISU, LOOOOOOOLZZZZ—no.  Even I have my limits out here on these limbs.  EDIT: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Those Kamado-Kagutsuchi connections I made were by accident, but Gotouge had that in mind FROM THE VERY START

Circled: “Kagutsuchi is a fire god” Two possible titles considered: “Onigari Kagutsuchi” (Demon Hunter Kagutsuchi), “Sumi no Kagutsuchi” (Kagutsuchi of the Charcoal) I’m (still) screaming.  And like, this is all the more interesting because Kagutsuchi is the first god to kill another god, what’s more, his own mother; yet this fire is still associated with purification; which is about as close as Shintoism comes to having a moral code. And then you’ve got Tanjiro, who feels the oni are kindred former humans even as he must rid the world of them.  UUNNNNGGGHHHHHH, GOTOUGEEEEEEEEEEEEEE————

Just watched demon slayer, and I want to premise this by saying that I enjoyed this a lot even if it may look like there are a lot of things I didn't like:

In general I really enjoyed the show. Plot wise it's nothing special or innovative or different, but I personally don't care about that, I just like watching what I enjoy watching and in this case this was right up my alley.

I really really liked the animation, it was pleasing and cool looking. I have to say tho that it's not as brilliant as everyone seem to think. Yes, it's great, but it's not that mind-blowing.

Speaking of, everyone was talking about episode 19, and oh my god episode 19 is the best episode of an anime I've seen in a while and I just,,, I didn't think it was that great. Yes, it was great, but it was on part with other of the best episodes of the show, it wasn't that brilliant or mind-blowing, it was just good. All that hype for the episode wasn't really warranted in my opinion.

One thing that I especially enjoyed is how Tanjiro is stronger than his peers, sure, however he's not overpowered, he struggled so much against Father and Rui and almost died without defeating neither of them but then you see Giyu and he disposes of them in an instant because he's an Hashira, he's more powerful, he's more experienced than Tanjiro is and is simply on a whole other level.

I'm really excited to learn more about this world and characters and see where the story is going and how the characters will improve and develop

Zenitsu's crying/screaming scenes always went on for way too long. I'm fine with his characterization but those scenes dragged on for too long making it extremely annoying and not enjoyable at all. I would literally skip seconds ahead because it was just way too much. Almost ruined my enjoyment at times.

That said I somehow still really like his character and I'm really excited to see what they'll do with him and where his story is going

The last like 3 episodes or something were really underwhelming. The series has to end on a high note and this one didn't. They felt more like middle of the season episodes. I love training episodes SO MUCH, but in this case the training wasn't even cool or that much fun, really. The ending of something is what really sticks with you, regardless of anything else that happened throughout. If something has a fantastic ending even if it was just average you'll be left thinking that the show was better than it actually was. In this case it left me really bored and underwhelmed. Everyone has their preferences but for me the ending was a real let down and not how you want your show to end.

I love Tanjiro, I really do, but sometimes he's just TOO good. I want a character that is a good person instead of the usual asshole but sometimes Tanjiro was just too much. He needs some flaws, he needs to fuck up a little, to be not so understanding or nice for once. I still want him to be good and nice and loving and understanding and forgiving and compassionate but nobody is that perfect always, he's human and you need to give him some flaws to make him feel real instead of just a character.

Muzan was so hot in that last episode 😭😭😭😭

Inosuke is a riot

Sometimes I loved learning more about the demons sometimes I didn't. Like with Riu, where I was just like, okay? like I get that you are trying to show us that demons were people who got turned into monsters and they have to be pitied etc etc but sometimes giving that backstory just doesn't work. Sometimes you can just give us a demon who is just the villain, not everyone needs that sad backstory. Riu was a demon who killed humans and abused other demons making them live in a living hell and I said, I get why the show the backstory but in this case it just didn't work as well for me as it did with all the other demons. I don't know.
