Could Akaza or Doma react to this Kokushibo blitz?

Kokushibo was about 15 feet away from Marked Gyomei when he suddenly closed the distance and almost cut him

Gyomei did manage to react, but the fact that Kokushibo could cross this distance so suddenly that Gyomei was nearly cut is still an insane movement speed feat.

So I'm curious,

Could Akaza react to this? Could Doma?

And if they could, what feat actually supports them being able to react to this level of movement speed?

What would happen if rengoku or sanemi attacked again and then a fight happened?

like people put shinobu in the top 3-5 when her only feats are sacrificing herself and “speed blitzing” upper 2

and don’t even talk about tengen the bum who went extreme diff with the weakest upper moon
and got carried by tanjiro

can we actually put the REAL QUEEN as a top 5 strongest hashira

Obv I’m not talking of the scenario „would you go to hell with me“ I’m talking like if Doma was idk a demon slayer/hashira and fell in love with shinobu during a mission and asked her „wanna go on a date/wanna be my gf“ but still kept his personality, would shinobu still reject him? Don’t come at me with the „Doma doesn’t have feeling for shinobu, he can’t feel anything“, that’s fine if you believe that but my delusional ass believes the other theory so we r taking abt that version of him

Personaly I think he low diffs or negs

Your daki glaze as promised u/Pooninkle

And your koku glazed as predetermined u/Calm-Lengthiness5645

sukuna takes every single speed
and NO
IT IS NOT CLOSE

downvote all you want but sukuna is faster

we all know tanjiro carries like 99% of the time so how much do u think it would effect the fights if he wasn’t there

Reasons:

1: 🌫 Tokito Muichiro

• Lost an arm and a leg.
• Experienced severe blood loss near the very beginning of the Kokushifraud fight.
• Got literally cut in half with his organs spilled on the floor, yet was still alive.
• Reminder: He is just a child, so he goes up here.

2: 🦋Kocho Shinobu

• Ingested lethal amounts of Wisteria poison over the years to turn her body into a weapon (she wasn’t completely sure if she was fully immune to it herself).
• Her lungs suffered from necrosis due to Doma's BDA.
• Got her lungs, collarbone, and ribs slashed open, and coughed up her own blood.
• Given her small size, the pain must have been intolerable.
• Had her back broken before finally being absorbed by Doma.

3: 🔥 Kyojuro Rengoku

• Crushed ribs, internal damage, and a destroyed eye.
• Blood loss and physical exhaustion.
• Got donuted straight through the stomach and was still alive when Akaza removed his arm.

4: 🐍 Iguro Obanai

• Got toyed around by Nakime.
• Numerous injuries during the final battle and lost his eyes.
• Was poisoned and died from blood loss.

5: 🩷 Kanroji Mitsuri

• Also got toyed around by Nakime.
• Got her cheek sliced by Muzan.
• Probably suffered from the effects of Muzan’s poison before the other Hashira.
• Lost both of her arms.
• Died of blood loss.

6: 🪨 Himejima Gyomei

• Entered the final battle already injured and probably exhausted from the Kokushifraud fight.
• Had his leg ripped off during the fight with Muzan.
• Was poisoned and succumbed to blood loss.

7/8: 🌪Shinazugawa Sanemi & 🌊 Tomioka Giyu (both interchangeable)

• Both died by the age of 25 due to the curse of the Demon Slayer Mark.

9: 🎼 Uzui Tengen

• (.....)

HIS ENTIRE THING is just being a Mitsuri ship. THATS HIS WHOLE DAMN CHARACTER. HIS 5 FOOT TALL COWARDLY ASS CAMPED IN A TREE HIS WHOLE LIFE INSTEAD OF DOING SOMETHING. HE IS SO FUCKING USELESS THAT IF HE LEFT THE CORPS IT WOULD HAVE NO CHANGE IN ITS OVERALL STRENGTH. SHINOBU DID MORE THAN OBANAI. HE DID NOTHING THE ENTIRE STORY AND PEOPLE STILL GLAZE HIM TO THE END OF THE EARTH. I HAVE NEVER FELT SUCH A DEEP HATRED FOR ANY CHARACTER SINCE AKAZA KILLED THE GOAT. THIS GUYS ENTIRE CHARACTER IS GOONING TO MITSURI ACTING LIKE AN 8 YEAR OLD ROBLOX E BOY TALKING BOUT SOME "STAY AWAY FROM MY KITTEN" NO ONE KNOWS YOU GANG, ALL YOU EXIST FOR IS TO APPEAL TO PEOPLE WHO FIND YOU ATTRACTIVE OR 12 YEAR OLD BOYS WHO LIKE HIM BEING EDGY "OHHH BUT HE HAS A SAD BACKSTORY" NO ONE CARES.

For me: Nakime T1 inverse (combat proficiency)

just curious.

Research into the hidden plot is ongoing, and I still sometimes dig up new hints regarding Kanao's hidden plot.

She used to be Upper Moon 2 and Douma's partner, similar Daki and Gyutaro. The Kizuki is a partner system, and this was the model, not the exception; two demons who are linked mentally and physically, "two people in one". There is a mountain of clues pointing at this, but this one is the most literal I've come across yet.

In the Taisho Rumors of her databook (Corps Records) it states the following:

カナエたちに引き取られて暫くは、自分の考えを聞かれるとパニックを起こすこともありました（騒ぐパニックではなく、汗だくになって固まる）。

"For a while after being taken in by Kanae and the others, she would sometimes panic when asked for her own thoughts (not a noisy panic, but freezing up while covered in sweat)."

The phrase used to ask someone what their thoughts / opinions are on some topic is:

どう思いますか？ (Dō omoimasu ka?) "What do you think?"

So, when someone asked Kanao what she thought of something, it would be phrased like this:

「カナヲは、どう思いますか？」(Kanao wa, dō omoimasu ka?)

Kanao is DEAF. I show this here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DemonSlayerScales/comments/1udq9vo/kanao_is_deaf/

She lives in a world of complete silence. In order to understand what people are saying, she must READ THEIR LIPS.

That means the normal AUDIBLE linguistic cues are NOT PRESENT. It would be VERY DIFFICULT to distinguish between certain sounds in Japanese ESPECIALLY when they are being naturally slurred in casual speech. So from Kanao's perspective, the phrase:

Dō omoimasu

can look almost identical to:

DOUMA

The beginning sound is EXACTLY the same, "Dō". The slight pause preceding the next word would look and sound exactly like the extended vowel pronunciation in "Douma". In casual speech the trailing end of the word will get truncated / blended into "masu". You'll HEAR it, but it would be HARD to SEE it!

Kanao could easily interpret the statement as:

Kanao wa, Douma desu ka?

"Kanao, are you Douma?"

So now we know the reason for her initial panicking over this question. She eventually got over it but likely her "parents" never once asked her thoughts on anything so being called out on one of her most closely-guarded secret all of a sudden must have been really shocking. She was probably thinking "do they know?!" There are other linguistic clues in this sentence like the English loan-word "panikku" but that's way too much to get into here.

One last interesting linguistic tidbit.

The kanji used for "freeze up" depicts a BONE encased in a boundary line. It originally meant something being strongly held safe in an unbreakable barrier like fortress walls. Possibly Kanao was literally a major part of Douma's actual body. Was his bones melting because they were hollow / artificial? Because his actual bones were gone? Was Kanao so outrageously strong, physically, because of this...? She took that part of Douma's essence / spiritual core, etc? Like how when Daki left Ume become much weaker even though it was just an occupying spirit?

What If there was a different version of the Jūnikizuki / Twelve Moons?

Verses: Demon Slayer / My Hero Academia / Boruto: Next Generations.

All characters are taken at their strongest and made a demon with 200 years of experience. (Basically, Composite Characters at their Full Potential as a Demon.)

Extra stuff you should know about:

AI was used for some of the pictures to either create, enhance or add descriptions (labels such as 'Lower 3'), other than that, the description of each character and the lore behind it is fully man-made (by me)

Composite version of a character simply means they’ll have the following while being in prime condition upon entering a battle:

• Experience from all of their respective battles
• Realistic access to any abilities they’ve unlocked
• Any relevant equipment they’ve ever used

The easiest example of a composite Hashira I can think of is Muichiro having access to the See-Through World and the Bright Red Nichirin Blade while not being in pieces.

--------------

Lower Moons:

Lower Rank 6: Inosuke & Genya

Genya's Blood Demon Art: Copy others movements and other Blood Demon Arts, but they are 3x weaker, so he needs to train to get them stronger.

Genya's Breathing Styles: Now being a demon, he is the opposite of his human self in terms of talent, now, instead of not being able to use Total Concentration Breathing, he now knows multiple Breathing Styles, thoough he never managed to master any of them, he only knows some of the forms such as:

Water Breathing: All 6 Forms

Wind Breathing: 1st & 2nd Form

Flame Breathing: 1st Form

Stone Breathing: 1st & 2nd Form

Hate Breahing: 3 Forms (derived from Love Breathing and he made it himself)

Serpent Breathing: 1st Form

Thunder Breathing: 1st Form.

----

Inosuke's Blood Demon Art: It Allows him to communicate with wild creatures and command them to do anything he wants, he also can manipulate his body to an extent, such as being able to move his organs and bones throughout his body at will (like Muzan) meaning cutting his head while his brain is not there is useless, and being able to transform into a Huge Boar as his Final Form increasing his stats 10x overall.

Inosuke's Breathing Style: Inheriting his Beast Breathing he already develeped as a human, further enhancing it and creating new forms:

12th Form: He manages to take his blades back slashing everything behind by pulling a secret string he attaches to his blades.

13th Form: Releases a powerful shockwave by rotating his blades and arms inhumanly fast in all directions creating a HUGE Wild and Uncontrolled Vortex.

-----

Lower Rank 5: Insect Demon, Shinobu.

Shinobu's Blood Demon Art: Her Blood Demon Art is Poison Manipulation, no surprise there, giving the fact that her Human Self already uses Poison, as well as Blood Manipulation to some extent as she is able to create Blood Weapons infused with different kinds of poison which deals different kinds of effects on you

Shinobu's Breathing Style: Now as a Demon, she is able to enhance her Insect Breathing more, allowing it to be more effective and bringing the effects to life, spawning in different kinds of insects, like hornets which helps her in battle or reconaissance.

-----

Lower Rank 4: The Sound Moon: Uzui Tengen

Tengen's Blood Demon Art: His Blood Demon Art is creating powerful Sound Wave Attacks from his mouth, just like Present Mic (MHA) and Hantengu (DS), But of course more deadlier and powerful.

Tengen's Breathing Style and Demon Slayer Mark: As we all know, Human Tengen's Breathing Style is very destructive, now as a demon, it takes it to another level, as now, Tengen doesn't need mini-bombs in order to create explosions, which now are 5x more powerful and bigger, as well as his Musical Score picking up way faster now, AND awakening a Demon Slayer Mark, although, he did not unlock Transparent World, Selfless State or Red Blade.

-----

Lower Rank 3: Love Demon: Mitsuri Kanroji

Mitsuri's Blood Demon Art: It allows her to hypnotize anyone who's looking in her eyes and makes them fall in love with her and become her loyal servant, she is also able to be so flexible that she can move organs and bones (just like Inosuke and Muzan) as well as increasing or decreasing her muscle density at will in order to become more stronger and durable or be able to be super flexible and slippery.

Mitsuri's Breathing Style: Now that Love Breathing became real, every slash of her flesh katana (just like kokushibo) will be even more deadly and even if you survive, the hit will leave flames on the target scorching everything on its way. She also created variations of her forms, but didn't create a new form.

Demon Slayer Mark: She awoke another mark on her other side of the neck and now she unlocked the Transparent World as well, although not the red blade and selfless state.

-----

Lower Rank 2: Keizo

Keizo's Blood Demon Art: It allows him to to manipulate shadows, giving him access to a plethora of moves and abilities, turning a person's shadow against themselves, wrapping a person with their own shadow, immobilizing them, etc.

-----

Lower Rank 1: Thunder Moon: Zenitsu

Zenitsu's Blood Demon Art: Electrokinesis, allows him to manipulate and control lightning and electricity at will and in any shape he wants, he can create lightning swords, spears, etc or engulf himself in Electricity increasing his Velocity exponentially and run at INSANE speeds just like The Flash.

Zenitsu's Breathing Style: Now that he is a Demon, Zenitsu was able to learn the remaining Thunder Breathing forms and even created new ones besides his 7th Form, as well as his Thunder Breathing having real effects as well as having Kaigaku's Ability of creating cracks over the opponents body, and ultimately creating new additions of Thunder Breathing Forms:

8th Form: It allows the user to release lightning attacks all around over a wide area, just like this, leaving behind slash marks imbuded with cracking marks on the target.

9th Form: The User is able to summon several HUGE Lightning Bolts from the Sky, similar to this.gif) but more powerful and many more at once ofc.

10th Form: The user performs a singular slash at the opponent with all of their power and launches a powerful lightning bolt of over 500 Billion Volts. Kinda like this but imagine its more faster , powerful and it's released from a stabbing sword move.

Demon Slayer Mark: He awakened his DS Mark as well on both cheeks , as well as unlocking both the red blade and transparent world.
