The most tender betrayal in the history of the Demon Slayer Corps quietly bloomed in the Garden of Butterflies.
As Nezuko's injury worsened and her life hung on the line, Kamado Tanjiro made an irreversible choice in a desperate situation - voluntarily accepted the secret "ghost transformation experiment" of his predecessor Naruhashira, and used his inhuman body to carry the power of the sun. The experiment was "successful" and he had thin blood that could only burn during the day, but he also lost his human identity forever.
Insect Hashira Butterfly Ninja, who was ordered to come for evaluation, said the coldest verdict with the gentlest smile under the cherry blossom tree in the courtyard:
"Tanjiro, according to team rules, I must eliminate you here."
At this moment, Tanjiro finally understood what Tomioka Giyuu meant by "loneliness". Behind him was Nezuko, who was on the verge of becoming a demon and losing control, with only the last memory of her sister left. In front of him was the butterfly ninja who had personally taught him breathing techniques and healed his wounds, and whom he regarded as his sister. Those with swords facing each other are all close relatives.
This is not a war between ghosts and ghost hunters. This is a tragedy between two "rights":
One side is a guardian who is willing to fall into Shura for his loved ones.
One side is the executor who bears the sins of protecting tens of millions of people.
When the scent of wisteria flowers and Higan flowers blended in the sword and halberd, and when the eleventh form of the insect's breath, "Butterfly's Sorrow," stabbed the young man he had sworn to protect, Butterfly Ninja cut off not only the ghostly body, but also his own oath as a doctor to "never harm innocent people." And the last scene Tanjiro saw on the edge of blood and fire was his sister's smile that coincided with his mother's when she blocked a fatal blow for him.
"Brother, I will protect you this time."
…
Is there any cp direction for this?
Very good to watch.
