Demon Slayer, Nezuko Is Also Trying to Become a Human Today

"Don't wait for me after dark." Fourteen-year-old Nezuko Kamado is an extremely ordinary mountain girl. Her world is very small - she has to get up at five o'clock in the morning to light a fire to cook for the whole family, she has to wash the clothes stained by her younger brothers and sisters playing in the mud, and she has to wait for her brother who sells charcoal to return on the snowy road before the sun sets. Her biggest worry is that the rice jar is about to bottom out again, that her mother's cough is not getting better, and that the sixth wife is kicking the quilt again. Until that winter night, my brother Tanjiro brought back a warning from Grandpa Saburo at the foot of the mountain: "After dark, there are things that eat people in the mountains." Nezuko didn't take it seriously. After all, the sun still rises the next day, the snow still needs to be swept, the rice still needs to be cooked, and life has to go on. But she doesn't know—— Three days later, the man known as "Kibutsuji Muzan" will knock on her door. Three days later, in order to protect her siblings, she will be injected with ghost blood. In three days, she will transform into the "thing" she fears most. I can no longer smell the aroma of porridge in the morning, can no longer feel the warmth of the fire, and can no longer wait for my brother to come home in the sun. And she doesn't even know—— In the distant future, there will be a blond boy crying and shouting to her: "Miss Nezuko! Please marry me! I will protect you for the rest of my life - even if you are a ghost!" "I want to be human again." "Not because of fear of the sun, not because of desire for flesh and blood." "I just want to cook for my brother again, braid Hanako's hair again, and wait for someone to come back from walking in the snow on a winter morning."
