#Infinity castle arc

for some reason tonight i cant stop thinking about different pairings for the infinity castle arc. what if shinobu had met akaza first, where she reminds him of poison-users, but he can't attack her due to her gender and her revenge wouldn't work on a demon who doesn't eat women? what if it was gyomei who met kaigaku, and genya with him seeing just how bad older brother figures could really be? or tanjiro and muichirou as a team meeting kokushibo, reminding him of yoriichi in different aspects of themselves. sanemi getting frustrated over douma's fake personality while giyuu takes no shit because he's so used to shinobu poking at him. iguro and yushiro finding each other first and sort of getting along because each of them worship a girlboss. mitsuri meeting inosuke and his loud personality who doesn't understand social norms, meaning he doesn't care that a woman is strangely strong. kanao meeting zenitsu against like nakime or someone where each of their heightened senses picks up fear from the other, and though they have multiple different reasons, one similar worry is failing those they love.
like. hello? there could've been so many different lifelong relationships if nakime had strum her biwa even slightly differently.

I tried turning manga panels into anime screenshots for the fun of it.
"Never look down on human emotion." "But I won't tell you what else it does. Use your multiple brains to figure it out for yourself!" "I'm sure your mother loved you a whole lot."

⚠️ Major demon slayer spoilers under the cut ⚠️
anyway I’m just writing abt how much I despise doma, and how I feel abt the backstories of akaza and inosuke now that the new season is out 💕
LETS BEGIN WITH THAT RAT DOMA
Tumblr media
First impressions: I’m not even going to lie when I first saw him at the end of the entertainment arc season I thought he was hot. Like dayum who is that fine ass man. Then I was like “HOW COULD THEY CUT US OFF WITH ONLY A GRAIN OF THIS FINE ASS MAN” so little ole me makes my way to the bookstore to buy volume 18 (mind you I have no other volumes and it was a random purchase)
Midway through: I read that shit and was like “THAT’S IT?” I NEED MORE (so after much bribery my wonderful father bought me the whole box set of manga) and I’m back to the beginning I read the manga all the way up to volume 18 and here’s what I have to say.. (I should have started with akaza his story comes first 🤦🏽‍♀️)
Okay let’s start with the ending of chapter 140 of volume 16: Shinobu is doing her job looking for demons so she can kill them, then she smells a scent of blood. She comes across doma and guess what? That twisted mf is happy to see her cuz she’s a woman and he prefers to only eat women. Next up is 141 of vol. 16 and we’re met with a little flash back of Kanae dying. Shinobu is scared and she’s trying to find out what happened. Her sister states what the demon who hurt her looked like, then we’re back to the present and Shinobu recognizes doma because of how her late elder sister described him. She tries to use her sword to get some poison in him (wisteria). She can’t cut his neck because she’s weaker than the other demon slayers.
At the beginning of 142 we’re give a brief little back story about doma. He had a temple where people come to him and pray to him. As a child he would cry hearing their sad backstories and he wanted to help people. At the end of the volume it’s not looking too good for Shinobu. She’s on the verge of dying because of all the damage doma is doing.
Tumblr media
Vol 17: in the beginning of the volume doma’s crying (empathizing?) with Shinobu. He calls her weak and admires her for her strength to keep going even though she isn’t strong. He begins to absorb her and she tells him to go to hell. That’s when kanao runs in and sees the end results of the fight. (Rest assured Shinobu’s death wasn’t in vain it’s later revealed that she injected herself with poison that would kill doma, so when he absorbed her the affects would take place sooner or later)
We pick back up with doma in volume 18: mid volume doma explains how he eats women because they’re nutritious. He cried over Akaza dying saying he was his best friend. He also talked about how Akaza never ate or fought women. (Ima talk about his reasoning when we get into akaza’s part) He starts to get angry because Kanao calls him out and talks about how much of a sick mf he is (I LOVE HER WTF) After fighting for awhile inosuke comes in to help and doma says he recognizes inosuke…
THATS A WRAP FOR MY DOMA ANALYSIS NOW FOR THE CONCLUSION:
I agree that at one point doma was a good guy, but after turning into a demon he started out bad then became WORSE. He ate both the Shinobu sisters AND he kept talking about his love for eating women. And it wasn’t even a “oh I appreciate women” kind of thing it was “females are objects for me to eat” if I ever met his ass we fighting. His morals became sick and twisted and I’m glad akaza tried to keep away from his creepy ass. I wouldn’t have had a problem if he ate men and women equally but this weirdo had a fixation on JUST women. I would include the part abt inosuke’s mom but we’re getting there.
INOSUKE (my lovely child):
okay we’re at the end of volume 18. Doma remember’s INOSUKE because of his face. He looks exactly like his mother. He digs through his brain (literally) and remembers that Inosuke’s mother came to doma (with little baby inosuke) in fear because her husband and mother in law would beat her and yell at her. Doma liked her enough and let her stay at the temple only after the day it got so bad that he decided to kill her husband and mother in law.
She was slowly becoming aware of who doma was and what he did to the people. She didn’t like it and felt uneasy about it. She confronted him and he was NOT happy about. So much so he decided he would kill her. (Mr woman eater can’t have people knowing his secret) It was said by doma that he actually LIKED her and had no intention of KILLING her.
Tumblr media
He even told inosuke about how his mother would sing “pinky promises” to him which seemed to jog his memory into remember her. Once she knew the truth though, there was no going back. She ran for her life with her baby and he chased her. She knew she was going to die so she at least wanted inosuke to live a good life.
She apologized for not being the mother he needed and throws him off the cliff. In the next second doma strikes her dead. He didn’t even bother to look for inosuke because he assumed he died from the fall. I think doma cried real tears in that panel? Anyway, inosuke is beyond pissed. He says that he’ll send doma to hell and the volume ends.
It all continues in volume 19: They continue to fight for awhile and doma decides to leave so he can avoid being scolded he uses his demon blood art to continue fighting inosuke and kanao but he suddenly starts to melt which meant the poison kicked in that Shinobu injected herself with. (Once again she injected her self with the mindset that doma would absorb her and he’d intake enough poison to kill him- it worked)
MY CONCLUSION:
I love inosuke and I feel bad he had to go through that. (I mean yeah he doesn’t remember most of it but still) His background builds character and helps us understand why he was raised by boars. His skills are amazing but he doesn’t know much about modern day stuff because he was raised by animals. It’s hard for him to communicate how he feels and to show affection (at first). After meeting tanjiro, zenitsu, and nezuko he learned how to be an affectionate person. He’s still not good at showing it but it’s obvious that he’s trying.
OKAY ONE OR THE SADDEST ONES IMO
We’re back in volume 18 because the majority of it is about Akaza and his back story.
Vol 18: Akaza is on the brink of death and he explains how he can’t die because he has to get stronger. (He thinks it’s just bc Muzan said he could get stronger but I believe he wants to get stronger so he can avoid the situation of his loved ones being hurt like his late wife and late father in law)
Hakuji used to steal wallets and other things as human so he could afford medicine for his dying father. (Even though he tried his father ended up killing himself) His death took a toll on Hakuji (Akaza’s human name). He became a delinquent and he would beat people and cause trouble.
One day he met his future father in law, who was asked to take Hakuji back to his dojo to train him and hopefully mellow down his behavior. Hakuji was not feeling it and tried to beat him up but he got a taste of his own medicine and was knocked out by the dojo master. (I’m sorry but I found that shit so funny)
Keizo (Hakuji’s future father in law) took Hakuji back to his dojo and asked that he take care of his daughter until he got back. He explains how his wife drowned herself because she couldn’t handle taking care of their sick daughter. Hakuji was all like “yo you sure you want me to take care of her? I’m a criminal.” And dude’s like “yeah well I beat the shit out of said criminal so I think everything will be okay :D”
That’s when he met pretty girl Koyuki <3
(LOOK AT HER JEJEJSWKW)
Tumblr media
Anyway he meets her and she’s left alone with him. The first thing she asks is if he’s okay because of his injuries. She was such a kind girl. (I think that gave Hakuji true happiness because he met such a pure soul) She was worried about him and how he couldn’t go out do anything because he always had to take care of her. He didn’t mind though because he enjoyed her company.
He was also very good at taking care of her because he had to take care of his sick father. The only thing he didn’t like was how she would cry while they talked. He felt really bad for the girl. He offered to take her to see the fireworks because she couldn’t get there on her own.
Keizo tells Hakuji the story of how he got the dojo. He also tells him about the people who want the land for themselves and about how the neighboring dojo started harassing their dojo. (Remember this because it’s important later)
Three years pass and Hakuji is 18 while Koyuki is 16. Keizo asks Hakuji to be the successor of his dojo because his daughter has a crush on him and he’s like the only student who’s been at the dojo (bc of the bad reps the other dojos give to their’s)
Ofc he said yes. He was so happy that his life had turned around. He decided to go to his father’s gravestone and tell him about it. When he arrives back at the dojo he can sense something it off… WAY OFF.
Someone tells him that the neighboring dojo poisoned the well water. Keizo and Koyuki are dead. He suddenly had a flash back of he and Koyuki seeing the fire works together. That was the day she asked him to marry her. Hakuji said he realized he couldn’t live without her and would do anything to protect her and her father. And he felt horrible when he couldn’t even do that.
He was so angry that he killed 67 members of the dojo that poisoned the well. Muzan came to scout the area because there were rumors of a “demon” (because of all the deaths) around. That was when he met Hakuji. He promised him that he could get stronger if he became a demon. And so Akaza was born.
After all of the backstory shenanigans we’re brought back to the present where Akaza is getting his ass beat by Tanjiro and Giyuu. He’s so close to dying. He’s giving up his life though because Koyuki’s spirit comes to him and tells him that he’s done enough. As he’s fading away he reunites with his wife and apologizes for not being able to protect her.
And that ladies, gentlemen, and non-binary hoes /j is why Akaza never ate or fought any women.
MY CONCLUSION: Akaza loved Koyuki so much and is why he couldn’t kill women. He loved one so much that he couldn’t bring himself to do something that would make him feel guilty. He was a troubled boy who needed love, so when Koyuki took him in he felt complete, he felt the need to protect, he felt loved.
I know that sounds cheesy but it’s true. Yes, Akaza killed Rengoku and people hate him for it but just remember he didn’t originally want to be a demon. He was doing everything he could to get stronger so he could protect the people he loved and if being a demon was the way then he’d become a demon no questions asked. I’m so glad he reunited with her. He needs a hug :((
THAT CONCLUDES MY DEMON SLAYER EXPLANATIONS AND ANALYSIS I KINDA WANNA DO ONE ABT MITSURI, THE SHINAZUGAWA BROS, AND MUICHIRO. IF YOU GUYS WANT THAT LMK. BAI BAI :))

Demon Slayer
Considering how the Hashira Training Arc-Infinity Castle Arc and Sunrise Countdown arc have been confirmed to coming out, maybe we could see some differences, especially in the finale. Considering the Final arc had been rushed because the author had something happening (I'm not sure what it was) This means, hopefully we have a change of plot (not too much) like maybe we could see the retired Hashiras in action: Urokodaki, Uzui, Shinjuro. Along with Uzui's wives. I HOPE they change up the final arc, considering the whole point was for Muzan to get Nezuko and eat her to conquer the sun. Maybe we could get Muzan sending a horde of lower demons to overwhelm the people keeping the Ubuyashiki's survived children and Nezuko safe. Maybe a bunch of quickly made Lower Moons (for the purpose of getting Nezuko) We could get how the Hashiras trying to get Muzan far away from Nezuko and the main estate as they can until the sun rises. We could have seen Aoi in action too (She knows Water breathing) to keep the 3 girls safe, etc. Lots of potential

My Demon Slayer Oc, Yuki Urokodaki.
I have drawn a lot during the past few weeks… I’m kind of proud of this one. If it was not clear, I love the Kimetsu No Yaiba Style lol.
WHO IS YUKI UROKODAKI? Well, long story short, a once lovely girl who was turned into a cold-hearted person by a certain Upper Moon… Only for bumping into a certain radiant Hashira who melted her frozen heart. However, she went back into a whirlwind of sorrow, rage and pain when he dies in front of her. In the end, her first love turned out to be her last. They fought, she lost, she asked him to watch the sunrise together and he gladly obliged. He held her close to him and, in that deadly embrace, he turned into dust.
“To melt a heart” (on going) is my fan fiction.
You can read it on Ao3 (Ghetsisbitch) and Wattpad (Domaslut).

I'm pissed off cuz of my headphones taking a dump for no reason at all, so here's some of Zakiko's last words to make ya'll suffer with me /hj
Slight Infinity castle arc spoilers, I guess. Mostly with Zakiko's death, but quite possibly the arc as a whole, so that's why a warning is there since I'm not gonna risk it >3>"
��~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~🌙
"......I'm sorry, Michikatsu........I'm sorry for.....not keeping my promise to stay alive in this final fight.......I really hope you're not upset with me........"
"No, no, of course not! I'm just so upset that it came to this. I am so, so sorry, my friend. I'm sorry for hurting your allies, having to fight you, I'm sorry for all of it."
"It's.......it's fine.......Heh.........Y'know what? I'm not even in any pain. Mentally & physically, actually."
"No?"
"Nope.....My pride is still with me, & my body doesn't hurt at all. So.........I guess........I guess that means I'm dying..........At least I get to talk to & hug what's left of you before I do........."
"........Yes. I suppose that is always a good thing to think of. My body is crumbling away as we speak. We're both exhausted. I'm sure this isn't what we really wanted, after all. But, I am happy knowing it will be painless for you. Since that makes me feel so much better about everything."
"Hm. ........Remember when you said just how much of a good friend I was when we first reunited.......?"
"Yes......? Why do you say that?"
"Well.........I think I finally believe you. I managed to stay on both sides & look after those weaker than me & you at the same time. They really respect me & so do you. Every time I talk to them, they genuinely seem happy to be around me. & that makes me happy. I protected all of my allies & friends & they seem to be proud of me. I'm proud of myself, too. Cuz now........I finally realize what you & Yoriichi were trying to tell me. I finally realize that I'm not a monster & I don't make problems worse. I finally realize just how much people do like me. I finally.....finally realize........how much of a good person I really am."
"!!!!!!!!!!!"
"I finally realize & understand everything. No one thought of me as a monster. They thought of me as a good person. & you still stayed by me even back in the Sengoku era. & I did with you. I realized it a little too late, sure, but I finally understood just how good of a person I am. So......thank you for not giving up on me. At least I can die with a smile on my face finally knowing just how much good I brought to peoples lives. & it's all thanks to you & Yoriichi for not giving up on me. Thank you, Michikatsu........"
".......Zakiko............ *Sniff*"
"Hey, c'mon, don't start with that blubbering, you big baby."
"I-I'm sorry, I just.........I'm so happy you finally are at peace with yourself, & don't bring yourself down anymore. I'm so happy & proud of you......! *Sniff*"
*Hugs him closer to her chest*
"Oh, Zakiko....! You really are amazing. You truly are. I'm so happy you finally realized you deserve better. I'm so glad all my efforts weren't in vain......! *Sniff*"
"Hmmh. Now, you're just gonna get me going."
"Ahehe. Excuse me. I just got overwhelmed, I suppose. ............This is really the end for us, is it?"
".....Sure looks like it. At least now I'll get to see everyone again.........but............I'm scared......."
".............."
"It's.......it's starting to feel a little colder.........I don't really wanna leave just yet........."
".........It will be okay. You won't feel anymore pain & you'll be by my side & never leave again now. That is what friends do, after all. Besides, you are totally right. You will see everyone again. Your parents, Yoriichi, everyone. So, don't be upset you are leaving your allies behind. Be proud you fought so hard. You deserve to finally be at peace after all these centuries. I know I think you do. I always have. I look forward to seeing you on the other side. If heaven will even accept me. Next time, I'll make sure you're safe again. Just like how I always did."
"...............O-okay. I.........love you........., Michikatsu.........Thank you for everything.........."
🌙~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~🌙
God, their friendship is the sweetest!! 😭😭😭😭
But, yeah. Don't know how my headphones busted so I'm using some earbuds from the downstairs computer armoire & I FUCKING HATE EARBUDS
So, you get to suffer with me. Sorry, everyone
Although, in my defense, I don't do KNY angst as much as I should, sooooooooooo.......can't blame me 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'm just sitting here, thinking about how much of an aneurysm Nezuko is gonna give Kokushibo in Sunlit Blossoms.
(manga spoilers, and spoilers for Sunlit Blossoms' version of the Infinity Castle Arc, below the cut)
So, I decided to throw Nezuko at Kokushibo in Sunlit Blossoms. Akaza doesn't fight women, and Nezuko doesn't have enough of a connection to Douma to inspire her to try and kick his a**. And Muzan didn't feel like sending her to Douma. She helps fight Akaza for a bit, and since he doesn't actually try to fight or kill her, Nezuko doesn't lose much stamina before getting chucked at our dear six-eyed swordsman.
And you wanna know why I realized Kokushibo is gonna have an aneurysm?
Unlike Tanjirou, it's glaringly obvious Nezuko was not born a chosen user for Sun Breathing. Even with the red streak she got after Mount Natagumo, which by now takes up a good portion of the front of her hair(y'all will learn why in the future), she is obviously not "meant" to be a Sun Breather.
And yet? She does it, anyway.
So Kokushibo sees this tiny girl, whose only indications she's some form of a Sun Breather are 1) Yoriichi's earring, and 2) red in her hair that she wasn't born with. No red in her eyes, her Mark isn't even purely Sun Breathing(I added a little vine to reference her demon marks in canon!😊). And yet she's using it anyway.
Kamado Nezuko looked fate in the eyes, flipped it off, and backflipped off the path set before her. Was most of it out of necessity? Yes. But there was also a hell of a lot of spite involved, and Nezuko is nothing if not ready to throw down with any obstacle she faces. Physical or metaphorical.
And this? The fact some random little girl could accomplish in 2-3 years what he couldn't in nearly five centuries? I imagine that would tick Kokushibo off quite a bit.
So now he's facing his descendant that he wants to turn into a demon, an imitation demon who he plans to kill but who also might have sun-conquering cells, the feral wind man who is the imitation demon's older brother and a Marechi, a man who's built like a whole shwhack of brick walls. And the unhinged gremlin who is both a reminder of Yoriichi, and spitting in Kokushibo's face by merely existing.
And he also learns to appreciate the fact that Yoriichi was the chill sibling, between the two of them. Because he learns very fast that younger siblings are a whole other breed of insane when they're feral, whilst facing three of them. Actually four, Gyomei is also a younger brother, iirc. But he is a menace to society in a distinguished adult way. Especially when compared to the trio committing arson with a mixture of demon blood, gunfire, and unnatural levels of spite and insanity.
Kokushibo is gonna have an aneurysm, but also learn the meaning of fear.

What do you think Infinity Castle would've been like with Kyoujurou? Like, do you think he would've been able to actually participate in the fight, and if so, who against + who would he fight with?
Realistically, no way, he wouldn't have been able to fight. But I will have my fun and say in this hypothetical universe, he miraculously recovered and had a rematch with Akaza that he won <3
