   The first two books contain angst, but the later parts are quite heartwarming. The third book is narrated in the first person initially, then in the third person later. Here's a basic description: 1. "It was my negligence that killed Sabito. If only I hadn't given him that knife..." Haruta knelt before the grave, weeping bitterly. "Crying is useless, it's my fault," Sabito sobbed beside him. If it weren't for this accident, the world would have witnessed their love. Although he died, his junior brother would continue to love her in his place. 2. "Dad...?" "Why did he go to the casino?" "Why is he always so irritable when he comes home?" "Why do new bruises keep appearing before the old ones have healed?" "Why did he sell me?" "Isn't he (the protagonist's younger brother) the closest person to me? Why did he abandon me again...?" "Mom...?" "She's my birth mother... Why is she standing by?" "Why did Mom only stop Dad when he was about to hit my brother?" "Why do those who thanked me betray me again and again?" "Why didn't I pedal my bicycle faster back then? If I had gone faster, could I have saved Kigan?" "I joined the Demon Slayer Corps, and they gave me a crow. I let her draw lots to choose her name." "She drew... Xun'an... But why can't I find her?" "Why hasn't she come to see me even once in all these years?" "It's all my fault..." 3. "I was born into the Iguro family, with filthy blood flowing through my veins. I don't deserve to be human." "I have to live, at least to let him live..." "That's the 'law of the jungle' I've had to abide by since I was born into the Iguro family." "I can't live in the sunlight. I'm just a rat in the gutter, how can I escape?" "I think my life is mostly for him." "He made me cut his flesh and bones with a knife, leaving an ugly scar... Because he knew that only in this way could I not die..." "I can't get out... But if I set fire to the Iguro family, that ugly demon shouldn't be able to catch him anymore." "... I survived. I saw him. He was full of life. The doctor there said his scars could be healed. Why wouldn't he?" "I learned the Breath of the Flower, the Breath of the Flower that blooms in the sunlight. I could only imitate its appearance. I was born in the shadows; how could I possibly master the Breath of the Flower?" "I was taken back and became a ghost, but I will not give up any longing for him." "I'm back. I saw him again. He was with a girl with pinkish-green hair. She was a very good person, much better than me. I suppose even if I die, he will have someone to rely on."

    It's unbelievable that anyone likes the female lead who gets stabbed three times in chapter 33, or 522 times in chapter 60 (does that count?). (The female lead is a high school student who transmigrates into Demon Slayer; her love interest is tragic, but her fighting power increases later, reducing the number of times she gets stabbed. Ah, there are quite a few slightly erotic scenes, so please proceed with caution if you're sensitive to them.)
