Demon Slayer: A Record of Life Before This One

Reigniting the flame in the dust of thousands of years - Comment on "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: The Life of the World" When Natsume Fujiko woke up from a thousand-year slumber, the world in her eyes was no longer the Heian Kyo filled with monsters, but a Taisho era shrouded in the shadow of ghosts. As the last descendant of the Natsume clan, her mission has changed from "killing demons and slaying demons" to "returning memories and extraditing the souls of the dead." And when she met the boy with flame-like hair again in the sky full of fire, a bond that spanned the past and present life rekindled the warmth of the world of Demon Slayer. 1. Gentle Blade: Responsibility and Rebirth of Natsume Fujiko The charm of the heroine Natsume Fujiko lies in her perfect blend of the "responsibility" of the Natsume clan and the "gentleness" of Infernal Anjuro. She is not the protagonist of a cool novel in the traditional sense. She dominates everything with overwhelming strength as soon as she appears. On the contrary, with a thousand years of fatigue and confusion, she carefully fulfilled her mission in a strange era. Her strength is more reflected in her inner tenacity and compassion for life. Before the ghosts die, she will tenderly return their deprived memories so that the lost souls can rest in peace; she will not hesitate to wave the knife in her hand in order to protect innocent humans; she will also show a rare soft smile next to Infernal Anjuro. This "gentle yet powerful" quality puts her in sharp contrast with the other members of the Demon Slayer Squad, and also makes her emotional line with Purgatory particularly touching. 2. Crossing the bond of life and death: the past and present life with Infernal Anjuro The author's most successful stroke is to set the relationship between Fujiko and Purgatory as a fateful reunion "from the past life to the present life". This not only cleverly avoids the controversy of "sister-brother love", but also gives this relationship a profound sense of fate. In the past life, they may have been partners fighting side by side and the indispensable light in each other's lives; but in this life, when Fujiko saw the hearty and laughing boy again, the fragments deep in his memory began to be spliced ​​together. She will be unconsciously attracted to him, will feel at ease around him, and will explode with power beyond her own limits when he is in danger. This kind of tacit understanding and trust that needs no words makes their relationship smooth, sincere and not deliberate. The character creation of Purgatory Anjuro has not been weakened because he is an "official partner". He is still the pillar of fire that is full of energy and always burning with flames. His enthusiasm infects everyone around him, including Fujiko. And the appearance of Fujiko also makes the image of Purgatory fuller - he is no longer just a hero fighting for justice, he also has people he wants to protect, and a harbor where he can dock. 3. The intertwining of knives and sugar: looking for glimmers of light in a cruel world The world of "Demon Slayer" is already full of cruelty and sadness, and this fan fiction takes this "sword" aesthetic to the extreme. As mentioned in the readers' comments, the author "killed characters such as Huazhu and Qiutu". These people who Fujiko had tried his best to save could not escape their fate in the end. This kind of "despair after hope" is undoubtedly a huge test of readers' emotions. The fate of the heroine Fujiko is even more tragic. In order to protect the important people, she finally chose to become a ghost and bid farewell to the sunshine forever. The design of this plot not only deepens the tragedy of the story, but also makes Fujiko's image more three-dimensional. She is no longer a perfect hero, but an ordinary person who is willing to bear everything for love and responsibility. However, the author does not allow the story to be completely immersed in darkness. In the extra chapter, we see Fujiko's hope of becoming human again. This glimmer of light is like a light lit in the endless darkness, allowing readers to feel a touch of warmth and comfort despite heartache. 4. Conclusion: On top of ashes, hope is rebuilt "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba: The First Life of the World" is a fan work full of sincerity. It not only perfectly restores the world view and character charm of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba", but also shows us a brand new story through the perspective of the heroine Natsume Fujiko. It tells us that even in the darkest times, there are always some people who are willing to burn themselves to protect others; even after experiencing countless pain and loss, there are always some bonds that can transcend life and death and exist forever. For readers who like "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba", especially Purgatory Anjurou, this book is undoubtedly a precious gift. It allows us to see again the boy who is always burning with flames, and also makes us believe that even in another world, he will still use his light to warm everyone around him.

It's good-looking. The heroine has fulfilled her responsibilities and mission to the Natsume clan from beginning to end. Natsume is also gentle and very strong. The emotional line with her eldest brother is also well written. The bond is from the past life to the present. I don't like the relationship between siblings (the past life was not a relationship between siblings), but this book is well described and worth reading, but I haven't finished it (contains spoilers, I stopped watching after I saw that it was about to enter the official demon slaying plot (this plot is also very late); because the author killed the flower pole, the rabbit and other things she originally saved, I thought they would survive, and the heroine also turned into a ghost (but looking at the extra plot, I guess the heroine must have turned back to a human later), so I didn't finish it completely

It's really beautiful. The author's writing style is really good. I love this book so much. It was already finished when I read it.

I like this book very much. I hope the author can publish a book with the CP of Immortal Kawakawa Saneya.

The author can do it, he finally cheated

I really like the good quality, CP Purgatory Anjuro

Coordinates Chapter 91, currently very healing, and the emotional line is also very delicate, but there seems to be a knife behind it? I'm so scared right now, I even want to run away before I get stabbed 🤦

There's nothing to say, it's so beautiful, go check it out ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Totally spicy! I'm addicted to watching it!

It's pretty good, and it's not too long so I can finish it all (๑•ᴗ•๑)♡
