Gyutaro and Daki/Ume are so " I regret nothing but you " & " I regret everything but you " trope.
Rewatching season 2 and I took note on how Gyutaro is so sure that in any lifetime that he'll be in, he'll choose the path of taking because he believes himself to be filthy and bad to the core, that it doesn't matter how many times it happens, that will always be his choice.
Tearing my hair out of how he only chooses love when it comes to Daki/Ume. He chose to be vulnerable only to her, his little sister. He lets her see how ugly he and the world is, but he wouldn't allow the ugliness to drown her happiness like it did with his. He was never given care since he was born, and he refused to have his sister being treated the same.
Daki/Ume becoming what and who she is because of him... he's her whole world. Her brother, her parental figure. At some point she probably figured out how her beauty could have had her having a better life on her own, but she chose to stay with him regardless of what happened. Just as Gyutaro chose to love her, Daki/Ume chose him as well.
Random late night thought, but it's BORING to think of the strongest characters of different shows/anime and compares them by asking "who'll win if they fight" --
Booo! Next question!
" Who'll choose tea or coffee "
Good.
Yoriichi drinks his tea like a gentleman he is, Saiki is happy with his coffee jelly and Gojo is at the back chucking on Fanta while in despair of what's happening with his life.
I promise they're best friends
( this is inspired by a tumblr fanart post of FNAF SB fanfic with Moondrop and Y/n but I can't find where is it help)
Kny ramble, (I should start numbering these lol)
Remember how Kokushibou said that whenever he and Yoriichi talked about how their breathing styles have no successors, and Yoriichi suddenly becomes optimistic and smiles? I shared the same confusion with Kokushibou, on why Yoriichi seems quite delighted at such idea.
Then it struck me that probably means, having no need to teach breathing styles means no more demons. The Breathing style started as a way to enhance the body for Yoriichi, a way to utilise the body to become better in terms of movement and maybe health...before being seeing as a weapon. It's being weaponized. For greater good, granted, but still. And Yoriichi hates conflict.
Having no successors can be meant that breathing style is no longer needed because demons are gone. But there's a possibility it can be used for another intention, and Yoriichi, who has seen how greed and envy influenced his brother, guesses that breathing style could take a very, very bad turn.
A way to get the body stronger? Faster? For what purpose? Violence then, if not for demons slaying.
Yoriichi is probably grateful that the demon slayer organisation is a hidden one, a small community that has only a small splotch of corruption between the slayers from the difference in morals, and that not everyone believes in demons.
Breathing style can be used for a good cause...as it also can be weaponized for destruction.
TMNT 2014 x KNY but with reincarnated Kanae instead
I feel like she'd adopt the turtles immediately as her little siblings. She's most patience with Raph so he would be the closest to her, Leo would admires her swordsmanship skills, she'd help out Donnie when it comes to medical stuff, and plays a lot with Mikey.
A toast for Tsugikuni Yoriichi,
who always blessed with
strength,
looks,
agility,
but never happiness.
[ KNY Infinity Castle arc spoiler ]
Rereading the part where Kanao mocks and insults Douma and I finally understand that in a way, she's gloating.
Douma and Kanao were raised in an environment where neither had the luxury to express their true emotions. They needed to act in a certain way to survive. When they finally found a path that allowed them to be more of what they were, Kanao managed to shape herself according to her choice but Douma couldn't.
Even if Douma has gotten stronger, he would always be in that cult, always performing sweet smiles and playing the role of a savior. He stays in the way he was as a human. He's like a frozen statue, unchanging. His human self wanted a change, a spark of excitement in his dull life and he thought being a demon was the answer.
Kanao is everything that he's not. She finds the will to change while he doesn't. Douma has more power than ever, he could go find something else about himself but no, he let himself be rooted in the same spot.
" Why were you even born? " Kanao probably has asked the same thing about herself, and upon noting the slight similarity between her and Douma, she represented the same question for him too.
The brewing hatred in Kanao makes her express great pleasure in seeing that she succeeded in denying her past while Douma still lives in that bubble. Her words spit venom because she can relate to him. Can't feel happiness, can't feel sadness. While he can't, she couldn't.
The difference between them relies on their choices and she feels such immense delight in a moment of spite to know that what she chose has become her strength. She made the choice to change, even in slow progress, but she finds the will to live instead only to survive.
It's such a brilliant choice to have Kanao battles against Douma, from the fact that the people around them are connected to that their pasts are almost the same.
During the time Tanjirou spends in Butterfly Mansion healing from injuries, Nezuko ventures the estate area and stumbles around the other slayers. Most are understandably wary and cautious, some are nice and friendly, and there are those who glare at her in hatred.
(Short stories centring Nezuko hanging around other slayers and get more perspectives on what everyone is fighting for and understanding how complicated her status is as a demon among slayers)
Sometime later in the future, when they've become closer
