| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- I see Yoriichi and Michikatsu backstory. I like Yoriichi from his backstory even though i already like him him way more now than before. He might end up as one of my favourites flashblack characters. Yoriichi is such kind and nice boy. He is also very talented as well and loves his mother and doesn t like violence. Interesting Jealousy is understandable. Its inexcusable for Michikatsu attenpt to kill his brother for this reason alone. Its lame and unjustified reason. I won t sympathies with Michikatsu If this is his only reason. Yoriichi can already use the mark and all see through world when he was a child. Very gifted and talented. I wonder how Yoriichi become stoic,calm and collected person. Need to know more. Yoriichi and Michikatsu backstory is interesting. |

it's jealousy, you can't never run from it. sometimes, it's not about wrong person, but wrong time at the wrong place... |

| Maybe im forgetting it but isn't the younger brother the upper moon 1? I mean wasn't the older one more talented than the younger that's why he became demon? |

No Um1 is older twin. Yoriichi is younger twin and breath of the sun Thanks, I think that my memory is getting a lot of hazy these days lol. |
| Oh I know that frustration. Talented people sometimes cam make you feel both jealous and angry for not being able to be like them. Kokushibo has all the reasons to despise his brother, although poor Yoriichi, he did nothing wrong. He probably never wanted that talent. It was nice to see how Yoriichi was the one who came up with the breathing style. He too doesn’t even know how that works. Nice, we will never get a proper explanation lmao Curious to see how the backstory progresses |
| You dedicate your whole life to your craft only for you to realize later that someone is born with the talents and gifts you worked your ass off to obtain. I think Koku was okay at first with all of it but his jealousy probably reached its peak when he realized that Yoriichi has been helping their mother all along, something he never realized for himself. I mean it's kinda unfair that Yoriichi is born with all the powerups you could possibly obtain lol. He was even seeing the "see-through world" at such a young age. The great thing is that Yoriichi never got corrupted by it. The mysteries of the original breath user is building up. |

| That was an amazing chapter. Is it me or the demons usually get better backstory and character development then most of the demons slayer cast? |
Rider9530 said: That was an amazing chapter. Is it me or the demons usually get better backstory and character development then most of the demons slayer cast? That subjective and depends on who is reading. But for me not really. Only bad guys that was really good is Gyutarou, Daki, Rui, Akaza and Muzan and koku for me. Koku reason aren t justified he is still pretty good But good guys have Tanjirou, Shinobu, zenitsu, inosuke, Giyu and Muichirou. All this guys have very good character development and backstory. Kanao pretty good as well despite lack of timescreen. |

That subjective and depends on who is reading. But for me nkt really. You are right about it being subjective. In my opinion the demons usually get a better backstory (although there is exception). But in general most of the characters (both demons, demon slayers and the rest) gets a really good backstory and character development. |
Rider9530 said: That was an amazing chapter. Is it me or the demons usually get better backstory and character development then most of the demons slayer cast? I think it looks that way because the Moons generally had a harder life as humans which led them to being tempted to become a demon in the first place. |

| Great chapter. Backstories have never disappointed me. Liked Yoriichi's character. |
 |
| Another great chapter. This arc is just getting better and better. |

| Yorichi is really a born genius that made the breathing techniques eh cannot wait for how he invented the various breathing techniques if the next chapters will show that i like how this manga emphasizes that talent exceeds hard work lol that is rare for a battle shonen that focuses on hard work alone can make you stronger |
landofthekwt said: Youruchi really had it bad Even so he was happy with the flute his brother gave him One of the few who did not want to hurt others. Was aware that his clinging to his mother's left side caused the illness that killed her You misinterpreted. She had an illness that slowly caused the left side of her body to become weak. He would cling to her left side to help support her because she was too weak to walk by herself. |

I feel like there's more to it than an inferior version of the original breath like the others since it's an obvious parallel to Yoriichi's Breath of the Sun. Now that more are being revealed, I feel like it's a waste to kill off Koku this early since he's such an important character being a direct sibling to the original breath user. |

| it was jelousy that lead him to be a demon awwww |
| I definitely like Kokushibou backstory better than Akaza's or Douma's one but as a character, I still like Akaza and Douma better than Kokushibou. |
| It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person. |
| Imagine dedicating yourself on a single thing for years only for someone whom you saw as just a fragile boy who couldn't leave his mothers side, sit and just watch around the place throw all that aside and surpass something you couldn't even begin to imagine.. that realization is brutal especially for a kid. I feel for Yorichi tho, as much as Koku wanted to become a strong samurai, Yoriichi wanted nothing but the best for his brother, a fcking flute that his brother made for him was more than enough to give him the courage to venture of into the unknown all alone as a damn kid, I know he's a freak of nature but the mentality to take that up was something else. |
  |
| Koku may have misunderstood the emotionless expression of Yorichi there since Tanjiros father was also emotionless due to mastering the see through world breathing technique so maybe being emotionless is a symptom of mastering the sun breathing |
| Idk, somehow this backstory didn't impacted me like previous ones have. Maybe Gotouge doesn't want us to feel pity for him, just watch his past so we understand that he didn't want to become a physical monster. |
 |
| What an unbelievable lovingly character and pityable character those twins are. Yoriichi is such a cute boy. Protecting his mother, cherishing his brother and sitting through basically being excluded from the family for 7 years. And then there's Michikatsu, who only looked down on his younger brother, didn't care at all for his mother (I mean, if he truly cared he would've noticed at some point how weak she is and not be that surprised when Yoriichi told him) and couldn't handle kindness it seems How he changed from 'looking down on his younger brother' to 'madly hating/being jealous of his brother' makes him not the least bit likeable for me. It's actually pretty sad. Really cool backstory overall ngl Now I wanna know how life went for the others that were born with a mark |

| From the title I thought it was gonna be about Sanemi and Genya.

I think it looks that way because the Moons generally had a harder life as humans which led them to being tempted to become a demon in the first place. Just following the common Japanese superstition about marks bearing ill omens. I know I've seen it used quite a lot, but can't think of any other cases the top of my head. |

Makes sense that the misfortune in the lives of the demons were caused by other humans rather than demons, because then it wouldn't make a lot of sense for them to then choose to become demons after that. |
| Really liked this chapter, so much I wouldn't mind even one or two more flashbacks of Kokushibou before he truly dies. |
 |
| Jealousy is really disgusting sh*t. |

| raw 178 just poped up. still without any translations but looks great. |
| The younger brother really was a genius. It actually makes me feel a little bad for the older brother. |
 |
| Jealously is one negative emotion that slowly devours a human's heart. Especially when suddenly roles are reversed or suddenly someone who was thought to be weak and brittle ia actually powerful and wise. Yoriichi had a huge talent. It explains how his Breath was not only the first, but apparently the strongest against demons. It is understandable, since it us based on the Sun which is deadly for demons. @Illyricus , same did I. Kokushibou is really interesting as a character and it would be cool to learn more about his past and rivalry with his talented twin brother. |

| It seems like this will be a flashback for them, I wonder how they were born. |
| Jeez, I like learning about his brother but damn he really has always been a piece of shit |
 |
| When I read the chapter title Little Brother, I thought it's talking about Genya and Sanemi. But obviously not since Kokushibou's backstory isn't finished yet. I just really want to know what happened to Genya already.π«π |
 She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did! |
| Flashback the first upper-moon devil. His little bro is a genius on sword. That's why he is getting jealous and want to revenge. Yorichii is power is really unknown. |
| Yoriichi born with the mark, see through ability and extreme sword skills....Damn still he was so down to earth. He was too pure for this world! |
