r/KimetsuNoYaiba

Kiyo, Sumi, and Naho reminded me of the Powerpuff Girls so much that I decided to draw them as them.

Edit: I made this for my birthday yesterday.

He is so well-written; at the very least, he is one of the best-written in the whole manga.

Hakuji was a kind and caring human who was only trying to do the right thing. He took care of his dying father, and though he stole and fought to acquire the medicine his dad desperately needed, it was out of selflessness. Even after his father’s eventual suicide left Hakuji with no one and filled him with resentment towards the world, Hakuji was still able to start over again.

Hakuji was taken in by Keizo, the man who would become his master. Hakuji would also go on to care for his master’s sick daughter, Koyuki, whom he fell in love with and was to marry. Through his training with Keizo and caring for Koyuki 24/7, Hakuji’s heart found salvation, and it seemed as if he would finally be able to live a normal life, as his father wanted.

However it all came crashing down years later when Keizo and Koyuki were murdered by students of a rival dojo. The reasoning for the rival dojo’s horrendous act of poisoning Keizo’s well was beyond petty: they could not beat him or Hakuji in a fair fight. As was to be expected, Hakuji lost it and went on a rampage, wiping out all but one of the rival dojo’s people. It was right after the massacre that Hakuji was found by Muzan and became a demon.

Once becoming a demon, Hakuji, now called Akaza, subconsciously built his entire identity and beliefs off his past human life as Hakuji. Akaza never ate or killed women, a trait created from his subconscious memories of Koyuki. The color of his hair, eyebrows, and vest became part of the same color palette as the kimono Koyuki once wore. His compass needle technique became a snowflake, and Koyuki used to wear a three-snowflake hairpiece, with the latter part of her name containing the kanji for “snow” (yuki). Akaza’s obsession with strength came from his promise to Koyuki to get stronger and protect her for the rest of his life. Even his attacks and techniques were named after fireworks, again, his subconscious memories of Koyuki.

Despite being corrupted by Muzan and losing his memories, Akaza still remained deeply intertwined with his past life. That is how strong Hakuji’s love for Koyuki was. It was also that strong love that saved Akaza in the end, allowing him to finally be at peace with Koyuki, albeit in hell.

Thought I saw this demon somewhere(S4 ep 1)

It doesn't make any sense for him to not eat girls just because of koyuki she's "one person" probably the first and only significant girl he's ever met in his life, wouldn't it be better if he just didn't eat weak people especially sick people.

Akaza can say that sense their so weak they're not even worth eating so he just kills them out of a act of mercy and he only consumes strong opponents also because he wouldn't eat pregnant people for obviously reasons doma's claim about them being more nutritious and better than guys stays true so he's still weaker than him.

I swear I don't think I'm better than the original author I love demon slayer I'm just giving my take on my favorite character please tell me if I'm wrong. 🏀❄️

I just noticed that Akaza activated Compass 3 times during the entire ICA fight. Can we really say that at certain points he went back to the same state he was in during the beginning of his fight with Tanjiro? Or is this better explained by Compass stacking / him readjusting it?

guys this is not in the actual movie and my editing is not that good but anyways how is it ? Thanks to u\IDK_Inator for commenting on my last post https://www.reddit.com/r/KimetsuNoYaiba/s/tegPHJpVaf as "Oh look some simmered salmon with daikon radish left unattended, if only someone could come and tak—"

"WHERE!!"

One thing I never got was Giyu said he’d participate in Hashira training after he lost to tanjiros noodle challenge. But we never see him “participate” other than train with sanemi. Was there ever a reason why he didn’t train the fodder slayers or like wassup.

Kaigaku was supposed to be the next thunder hashira. He was stronger than zenitsu. He mastered all thunder forms except the first one which is a big feat. He wasn’t on the hashira level but where do you think he was amongst the main cats like tanjiro , kanao, genya etc ? Could he have been useful in an upper moon fight ?

Guys why is he peeking ? Give me the most creative and funny wrong answers . Also was the floor too thick ? What if the shot was from different angle that includes his whole body , wouldn't it be funny scene ?

Afte some rewatches, I just realized that what akaza meant for the realm of the highest was nirvana, the image of tanjiro under the tree on this scene was that moment when buddha attained nirvana under a peepal tree. Before this scene he was beheaded by tanjiro after transcending to the transparent world, the concept of emptiness, detachment and being nothing. This is why I love movies, lots of references to history and literature under our noses.

I dont think if demon slayer would be as famous as it is now if it hadn't gone to ufotable hands 🤔
