Lazy Town X Kimetsu No Yaiba   Ziggy X Muichiro

Demon Slayer AU where everything is the same except Yoriichi is a ghost.

He’s corporal/people can see him, he can change his appearance from when he was a kid to when he was old.

He follows Tanjiro around. They met sometime before the Hashira Training Arc for sure, but how early depends on what the writer decides. Has he been there since pre-canon? Or did he show up after the Entertainment District Arc (would honestly make most sense since Tanjiro didn’t know about Sun Breathing until after Mugen Train, but again this is an AU).

He meets Muichiro, and after it clicks that he’s Michikatsu’s descendant Yoriichi follows him around too, eager to be close with the family he could never have.

Depending on when they met, Yoriichi could help Muichiro recover is missing memories earlier than in canon.

Other things about/to include in the AU:

Kamaboko Squad centric (Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke, Zenitsu, Kanao, Genya, AND Aoi and Senjuro)

each member gets a one-on-one interaction with him at some point, which will add to their own personal character growth

Whether or not Yoriichi can physically interact with others is up to the writer

making him able to fight demons seems kinda OP, so unless the writer can find a way to make it make sense about how he can maybe don’t do that

maybe he can exude enough strength to stun demons, but not fully kill them

can he pick things up, or do they just pass through him?

He helps train Tanjiro, making him more proficient in Sun Breathing

this can give Tanjiro more time to hone is Water Breathing. It always irked me that Tanjiro didn’t practice Water Breathing as much when he discovered Sun Breathing (don’t quote me on that, I get my info from TikToks and reaction videos. But why learn two breathing styles and not increase your skill in both?)

this can allow a Giyuu training session in the Hashira Training Arc that we didn’t get to see

Expanding on Yoriichi changing his age: I feel like the older he presents himself, the more power he would have. So when he’s fighting, he’s somewhere between his 20s and 80s. However, because this takes up a lot of energy, when he’s not fighting he’s typically in the form of himself as a child or in his teens

whether or not his mentality/maturity is affected when he’s at different ages is up to the writer so long as it’s not portrayed in an erotic/kinky way

Yoriichi can give tips to the Hashiras that those in the Sengoku Era used (information always has the potential to be forgotten, so maybe there were some tricks that were forgotten about?)

can provide more information about Muzan and his weaknesses, since he was the only swordsman who came close to killing the Demon King

Interactions with Lady Tamayo and Yushiro!

Fluffy moments! Slice of Life, Found Family, all the tropes! Let him be the father to the Kamaboko Squad that they never had/lost (let him have the chance to be the father he never got to be)

Lots of interactions with Genya (is my favoritism showing?)

bonding over being the younger brother

bonding over their endless love for their older brothers

bonding over their older brothers who do so much to hurt them, but they just can’t stop admiring them

Let Yoriichi give Sanemi a talking to

yes, I understand why Sanemi acted towards Genya the way he did. He wanted to protect him, keep him out of danger. However. Good intentions DO NOT give you a free pass on bad actions.

the way that Sanemi treated Genya was cruel and frankly unacceptable; he could’ve gone about it in a much more mature manner

Interactions with Giyuu and Yoriichi!!

mostly bc Giyuu is my fav Hashira, but I notice a lot of similarities between them

Maybe Yoriichi can provide information about Kokushibo/Uppermoon 1?

Yoriichi has the flute that Michikatsu gave him with him in his ghost form

Additional weaknesses up to the writer (this goes for powers too)

Kamaboko Squad showing Yoriichi present-day things

A mix of fluff, angst, etc.

rating is up to the author

ANY SHIP is welcome so long as it is:

legal

not a pro-ship

treated respectfully/with some level of understanding

^^continuing from this, it doesn’t matter if you include SaneKane, SaneGiyuu, ShinoGiyuu, ShinoMitsu, SaneMitsu, ObaGiyuu, UzuRen, or any other pairing, polyamorous included. It doesn’t matter if there’s no ships at all. Everyone has there own preferences, and it’s up to both the reader and the writer to be respectful about it

This is all I’ve come up with for now! I’ll most likely come back and add more at some point, but if you have any ideas or suggestions let me know too!

If you end up using this idea, credit me with my Tumblr, and if you want to as well my AO3 which can be found in my profile :)

Some Muichiro fanart :)

also just ignore that the general posing, hands and face look iffy :’) I’m still getting used to drawing demon slayer characters:)

Unhinged Nezuko can turn her head 180° degree and clings on ceilings too

She enjoys some warm hot springs too 😊

[Masterlist]

KNY Horror movie AU lists:

1. The Ethereal Cult

(Featuring Inosuke, Kanao, Shinobu, Kanae, Kotoha and Douma.)

Inosuke and Kanao venture into a small village in search for their friend Shinobu, only to find themselves deep in trouble with the local cult where the leader may or may not practice cannibalism.

2. Split

(Featuring Tanjirou, Nezuko, Genya, Mitsuri and Hantengu clones.)

During a school trip, a group of high schoolers and their teacher are forced to take cover from the storm in a small inn belonging to a man named Hantengu. As the storm drags on for days, so does their stay in the inn. Terrifying things begin to unfold when they discover that the man is a serial killer.

3. Unseen Scales

(Featuring Muichiro, Yuichiro, Kotetsu, Haganezuka and Gyokko.)

People keep disappearing and after his twin brother is amongst the missing ones, Muichiro is set to uncover the truth. The only clues or patterns he recognized from the cases are the fact that the victims often went missing near the river, always during the night market.

Oh my God

Muichiro and Tanjirou playing paper planes together, with Tanjirou not really good at it.

Mitchikatsu and Yoriichi playing kites together, with Yoriichi getting the strings tangled up around him.

(also someone said the paper planes represent Muichiro going to heaven and Tanjirou having close calls but still won't die)

I can't stress how I love the latest episode of KNY season 4, how cute it is and how the anime gives more context and stories.

I love the connection between Hashiras, how we see that they do have fun with each other, and how Muichiro opens up more to others. Connecting between people will give more depth and feelings on the future...

I also love the paper planes scene. They all are animated beautifully, and the close up on Muichiro and Tanjirou? It'll be Muichiro's memory that he fonds of, and something that Tanjirou will look back at...

(we all know this will just add more angst in the next arc.)

Also I remember drawing a Muinezu fanart of them doing origami, so I might redraw that with paper planes too later 😊💖

Edit; the way I gasped when seeing the hundreds eyeballs...I was like EW EW WHY ARE THEY MOVING LIKE THAT NAKIME I LOVE YOU BUT WHAT ARE THOSE 😭😭

More merpeople AU

Props to you for the lighthearted running joke of the losing limbs in this AU, @demonslayedher

Saw a YouTube video of someone doing a 'What If Tanjirou meets another Hashira in the first episode' so here are my speculation;

Giyuu: Already in canon, Tanjirou and Nezuko are spared

Shinobu: Same as Giyuu with attacking Nezuko first but becomes immensely curious and bewildered when Nezuko protects Tanjirou. Thinks about Kanae and decides to let her curiosity wins her over. She probably make a deal with Tanjirou like "I'll recommend you a teacher for you to become a slayer in exchange for me to take your sister with me." Probably does experimenting on Nezuko because of her opposite demonic characteristics 💀 (a complicated situation, both sides trying to find the solution for a mutual agreement with Tanjirou refusing to leave Nezuko while Shinobu wants to poke her around with needles and stuff)

Kyojuro: Attacks without hesitation, stating bluntly to Tanjirou why Nezuko should be decapitated (unintentionally harsh) and does a double take when Nezuko protects Tanjirou. He might still stands on his ground but questions the whole situation. I can either see him still trying to slay Nezuko or spare her and takes Tanjirou as his student.

Mitsuri: Despite her soft and cheerful attitude, she shows little mercy when it comes to swinging her blades. She apologies first before diving into an attack. Very shock at seeing how Nezuko protects Tanjirou and starts complicating on what she should do next, to continue her mission or spare the siblings. She might needs to sit down and thinks for a moment. The outcome probably with her sparing them.

Muichiro: So honest with his words, insults Tanjirou at hoping for Nezuko to be good. Attacks but pauses when Nezuko is protecting Tanjirou. Maybe tilts his head and stares, asking Nezuko if she has ulterior motives. The most possible outcome of this situation is him to continue his mission and slays Nezuko, reminding himself that his responsibility as a slayer outweigh everything else.

Uzui: Doesn't filter his words when it comes to explaining to Tanjirou on why the boy is stupid enough to protect his demon sister. His eyes get wide when Nezuko protects Tanjirou and questions swimming around his mind. Either he decides to grasp onto the tiny possiblity that Nezuko can be good, or that he goes ahead to behead her. I see Uzui as a hopeful man clinging on to exciting possiblity of impossible situations, so he might takes Tanjirou as his student but keeps Nezuko lock or isolated away 💀

Gyomei: He thinks the situation is pitiful and hopeless, that Tanjirou is in too much despair to hope his sister still has the humanity in her. Even with blind eyes, Gyomei senses the change of the atmosphere when Nezuko stands over Tanjirou like a protection barrier between him and Tanjirou. He keeps wondering how such thing is possible, how a child like Nezuko decides to risk her life for her human brother that she probably never has memory of. He thinks of the chance that maybe she's being defensive over her food. Either he goes for a killing strike, or to have Tanjirou learning under his guidance while keeping close watch on Nezuko.

Obanai: Very harsh insults, thinks Nezuko has ulterior motive for protecting Tanjirou and beheads her 💀

Sanemi: We all know where this is going 💀 Kill first ask later.

They did so well with his smile, capturing the sinister in it and the mocking glint in his eyes. So I redraw the scene.

(I forgot his blood splatters in the first place)

I know that Muichiro and Yuichiro can easily carry things heavier than their weight I mean look at how much woods they were carrying on their backs 👁️👁️

Also their dad looking a lot like Tanjirou, so Mui must be seeing his dad in Tanjirou that's why he's so soft and sweet around him (the bias is so clear LMAOO)

Inspired by a fan art I saw on Pinterest sometime ago, where Muichiro, Genya and Senjuro realizing they could call Tanjirou brother if they became in-laws.

So I have an AU idea with set on modern era with bits of mixed of the original one, where Nezuko gets ask out on dates by other boys who actually (at first) only want to have Tanjirou as their brother.

Hot take: Nezuko knows their intention, decides to take advantage of the situation, but always making sure that everyone knows that the only person who can call Tanjirou brother is her.

- Inosuke tried at first but got confused on the whole 'asking thing out' and just proudly claim that he wants to be Tanjirou's brother (at first he thought taking out means tackling them so he did that to Nezuko and got scolded by Tanjirou) (he dropped the asking thing out with Nezuko because he views her as sister from the very first begining)

- Senjuro got to embarrassed to ask her out but still hangs out with Nezuko (he's still trying but decides to take careful measure)

- Muichiro straight up being honest with Nezuko and makes a PowerPoint on the benefit the two parties can get if he becomes associates with her and Tanjirou's brother-in-law

- Genya just can't do it like Senjuro but still hangs out with Nezuko and tried subtly (failing) making himself look cool or something

- Zenitsu thinks he has the best shot at it cause he's been friends with the Kamado since kindergarten and the closest to Nezuko (but he's often on Tanjirou's bad side, so....)

This is mostly a crack sort of AU that I find silly.

Tanjirou having the brother rizz

(I am feeling a little bit evil so Giyuu doesn't get to have his chance hugging Tanjirou cause there are too many people so he leaves with his head down like a disappointed dog)

Random things I think about after watching the latest episode of Demon Slayer:

- I thought that Muichiro's father might be siblings with Tanjirou's but the family name doesn't add up so! What if Mui's grandmother is a Kamado and married a Tokitou. Mui's father inheriting the red eyes and married a turquoise eye coloured woman hence the Tokitou twins are born.

- I love how Tanjirou gets so work up over Zohakuten victimizing himself, like he's so pissed that this demon has the audacity to acts like a victim when it's the other way around. That he also gets so angry over being questioned why he cares about others, why does he keep helping others when it's not his business.

- CRYING SCREAMING WHEN THE CLONES GET ABSORBED AIZETSU MY MAN 😭😭

- CRYING AGAIN WHEN MUICHIRO KEEPS TRYING TO GET KOTETSU TO LEAVE AND LOOKING SO HORRIFIED WHEN THE BOY GOT STABBED

- This episode reminds me of Gyutaro and Daki, how they're on the different side of the same coin with Tanjirou and Nezuko. They became demons because they suffered, contrast to the Kamado who became demons slayers because they suffered.

Tanjirou and Nezuko are the definition of " The world is cruel and makes us suffer so we make sure no one gets the same fate."

I am fully convinced that Ginko has a lot of influence on Muichiro.

My boy waking up with amnesia and very little emotions/personality and then gets himself a sassy crow that doesn't take crap from others. She ABSOLUTELY would whispers in his ears "hit that weak ass punk" and Muichiro will do so.

Local news, a grown up demon has been defeated by the sass of a 14 years old boy

Can we please see more of your KNY Roleswap AU?

What was his name again? That boy had a twin too, right? They were with the Kakushi, but right now, as Nezuko wiped away her sweats, she noticed that this twin was alone and wasn't in an attire like the kakushi. Instead of the brown uniform set with masks, the boy wore something resembling a slayer's. He was sitting by himself on the porch, and despite the cloudy eyes, his eyebrows were furrowing as if he was in a deep thought.

Nezuko decided to greet him.

" Excuse me. " She said with a bright smile. " Hello, I am Nezuko. "

The boy snapped out of his trance, turning to look at her. He blinked, not responding to her for a moment before nodding.

" I know you. You're the slayer that carries a demon around. "

The girl scratched her cheek, her smile turned nervous. " Guess I don't really have a good reputation now, do I? You're one of the twin right? I've seen you working with the Kakushi. "

" Yes. I am Tokitou Muichiro. " The boy introduced himself.

Nezuko took a seat next to him. " If I may ask, why are you wearing a different uniform than before? Did the fabric tear or something? I can fix it! I am very good with needles and sewing! " She patted her chest confidently.

Muichiro tilted his head, a ghostly smile on his face as he looked down to his uniform. " The Moon Hashira gave it to me. He's...a relative. " His expression dropped, a rather sad pout made with his lips. " When my twin and I were toddlers, our parents were attacked by a demon. The Moon Hashira saved us and took us in. He started to train us to become slayers but then we decided to stop halfway and instead became a kakushi instead. "

" I am not one to judge, but why stopping halfway? " Nezuko wondered.

Muichiro sighed. " My brother suddenly claimed that he didn't want to become a slayer -- he also forbid me to become one too. The Moon Hashira -- Kokushibou -- respected out decision and let us be. But I know Kokushibou was disappointed. He saw potential in me and my twin. This uniform was a handmade for me when I become a slayer. It didn't happen, but I am wearing this right now because my kakushi uniform got dirty and is currently being hung under the sun. This is the only one clothing I have for now. "

" I see. " The dark-haired girl hummed. " So...since you went along with your brother, I guess you didn't want to become a slayer? "

Muichiro flinched, a single sweat dropped. He bit his lips and looked away, earning a suspicious look from Nezuko. She leaned forward a little, trying to get a better look on the boy.

"...You want to become a slayer? "

With hesitance, and very slowly, Muichiro nodded, glancing at her from his shoulders.

Nezuko frowned. " Then why didn't you say anything to your brother? To Kokushibou-san? "

" It's...not that easy, Nezuko. My brother -- Yuichiro -- I know that he means well and he always takes care of me...but he has a rather violent reaction. I am sure he would be angry if he knows that I am still willing to become a slayer. "

" Have you try talking to him? "

" I shrunk at the high volume of his voice whenever he yells. "

" Well, this is unfair to you! " Nezuko huffed, crossing her arms over her chest. " If your brother can't even listen to you, then I am going to make him! "

Muichiro's eyes widened at the sight of the girl going to her feet, a stern expression on her face as she placed her hands on her hips. He unconsciously grabbed the sleeve of her shirt, tugging her back down.

" I don't think that would be wise. " He reasoned, still surprised at how she immediately decided to face Yuichiro to defend him.

Nezuko turned, slipped her hands around the boy's hands and held it firmly. " If it's not me who do the talking, then you will! You have a voice to defend your right! It's the heart that drives the people, Muichiro. If your heart tells you to follow the path of being a slayer, then follow your heart! "

She patted his shoulder encouragingly. " You can do this! I wish you good luck! All right, I need to go back to training or Douma-san will hunt me down. See you again, Muichiro! Oh, and if your brother still refuses to listen to you, then tell me and I'll go straight to him."

The girl turned and walked away. Muichiro stuttered a little and stumbled in his steps as he stood up. " Wait! W-What will you do if you have to go see my brother? "

Nezuko turned around. " I'll make sure to talk some sense into him! Everyone has the right to voice out their opinions. You have the right to decide what you want to be, Muichiro. You can be whatever you want to. No one else should tell you what you have to be. Just you. "

When she gave him a smile, it was as if the air was knocked out of his lungs. Is it the lighting? She looked as twice as beautiful than the first time he saw her. Muichiro felt his neck getting warmer, noticing there was an increasing beating of his heart in his chest.

" Take care! " Nezuko waved her arm, disappearing into a corner.

Muichiro looked down to his uniform, his hands twisting the fabric in his grips. He closed his eyes and steadied his breathing. One last deep inhale and exhale, he opened back his eyes and a flash of determination were seen in his eyes.

Time to seek Yuichiro.

An AU where Tanjirou is the demon and Nezuko is the slayer. In my version, Tanjirou and Nezuko went down the mountain together to sell charcoals and handmade herb medicine that the Kamado family began to produce for a while. Tanjirou had sold all of his charcoals so Nezuko told him to return home first while she went to finish her items. Reluctantly, her older brother did so. Now it was already late, and Nezuko had to crash in Saburo's house for the night.

You guys know the drill; she came home to find only Tanjirou alive and had to drag him down to the town when he transformed into a demon. The Kamado siblings then found themselves facing a slayer goes by the name 𝘚𝘢𝘣𝘪𝘵𝘰.

Later on, after being given the chance to prove Tanjirou being a good demon, Nezuko set off on an adventure to find cure for her brother.

Kanao and Kaigaku become Nezuko's friends and they became life time trio

Tanjirou grown attached to Kanao, making the young girl rather flustered at such doting

Nezuko possesses very strong kicks! Her first fight with Kaigaku was resolved with her slamming her foot up to his body part where the sun does not rise.

Kaigaku might not be able to have children, rip.

Tanjirou's Blood Demon Art is Fire Manipulation. He can breath fire and heal people too. His berserk form has a horn pops out of his left part of the forehead where his scar is, and there are flame marks on his body.

Hakuji stabbed Tanjirou to see if the demon would attack him -- never happened.

Muichiro and Yuichiro are alive as the youngest kakushi, Mui being a kind but quiet twin while Yuichiro is the loud but anxious one.

The twin have potential to even become Hashiras but Yui keep refusing, only becoming Kakushi because feels indebted to Mitchikatsu who saved them before.

Muichiro wants to become a slayer but doesn't have the courage to say it to his twin.

" Follow your heart! " Nezuko said to Muichiro, resulting the boy to fall for her.

Tanjirou once headbutt Yuichiro for his foul language and harsh treatment to Nezuko

Muzan is still an asshole but he's a tsundere that secretly worries for his slayers

Kagaya is also still gentle and soft spoken but he's very manipulative to his Uppermoons

Giyuu is dead lol, he was the ghost boy that helped Nezuko trained

Sabito and Makomo are both Water Hashiras

Gyomei is Uppermoon One, but there's an Uppermoon Zero, which is Yoriichi.

Yoriichi looks like a porcelain doll with 3 pair of arms.

I might do some changing, but these are what I could come up with so far.

The first time he called her that was when he regained conscious after the demon event with his brother. Thankfully, that was only two of them. The second time, Sora had to cover her face as she blushed, screaming internally that a colleague of hers and the Insect Hashira had heard the nickname Muichiro has for her.

( of course, Shinobu is not letting this go. Mui has no memory of doing so and apologizes later )

KNY memes ft.oc

I might make a series of this. Anyway, the cool colour duo. ( Suggested by @demonslayedher )

Everytime Muichiro got injured, he just zoomed in the butterfly estate, looking for Aoi. She saw him and just understood immediately.

Aoi was belittle for not joining in slaying demons after the final selection by some other slayers but after Muichiro gave them 'friendly' warning, no one made fun on Aoi again.

Muichiro thought Inosuke was being a nuisance to Aoi lately but she stopped him. It was then Mui realized there's something going on between those two. He's okay with it, but he doesn't like that Inosuke keeps finishing Aoi's tempura.

Aoi is quite envy of Mui, who is much younger than her but has gain the title of a Hashira. Muichiro assures her that this does not make her less anything and he respects her. Kanae and Shinobu are relief to see Aoi and Muichiro friendship.

I've been neglecting my other girls so expect some posts about them after I am done with Belle's story

I just noticed that Nazra is my only OC without being shipped with anyone

She's fine, she has her cooking skills and cats

Belle should be participating working with a Hashira as a Kiroku, but she redraw at the last moment.

Lmao, yes, Belle still alive. She's not a demon, is currently working with the Ubuyashiki, and I'll tell more in the future.

Kiroku means " report "

Belle is using sign language, but if I am doing it incorrectly, please inform me!

Okay, so,

When Yuichiro died, he passed with his body facing down.

When Muichiro died, he was standing.

When Yoriichi died, he was standing.

When Kokushibou/Mitchikatsu died, he was on his knees ( I think ) as he crumbled away.

I feel like the way Yuichiro and Kokushibou death position means something like, " It's over, I gave up. I couldn't even accomplish something I've been longing for, no matter how hard I tried. I don't care anymore, just take me now. "

Because Yuichiro couldn't protect Muichiro, and Kokushibou couldn't surpass Yoriichi.

Meanwhile, Muichiro and Yoriichi position feels something like, " I tried my best. Even if my part has little effect, at least it's something. I worked hard. I tried. I couldn't finished what I intended to, but I hope I have left something effective. "

Muichiro didn't managed to finish Kokushibou fully, but he gave him a large damage and died standing with his hands clutching his sword into Kokushibou's torso. Yoriichi died standing as well, not being able to fully finish Kokushibou, but still clutching his sword and gave enough damage for the opponent.

And all of their life, their only mind was occupied about their brother. What to do with them, how do I protect them, how can I surpass him, etc.

Just their brother.

:(

" Tanjirou, is your sister single? "

I just want to say that this is one of my favorites rare ship

Can we see the reincarnations of Tokito and Sora meeting again?

In the modern world, Sora becomes a music writer and she plays musical instruments by the street sometimes. Muichiro, now a successful novelist ( he writes the dreams he keeps having where there were demons in the past ), sees Sora for the first time, hits with nostalgic and falls in love again.

Unknowingly to him, Sora loves his books and is one of his fans. So when there's a signing event, she goes in line to get his signature, sees him, and feels warm and fuzzy inside.

They meet again, have some talks, and really like each other companies so they hook off a few months later.

He’s just trying to be a good great great (great great) grandpa.

He likes to hug her after having a mission

And he does not like to share
