So I already read the manga and wanted to ask all the manga readers the reason why nezuko could now walk in sun.
Why kokoshibo couldn't conquere the sun and nezuko did.

Now before you start writing, I don't want your theories or theories you read online. I want the chapter in which the author himself explained it. A screenshot could also do the work (but has to be of the manga chapter). 

To be honest it's a really big event because from hundreds and thousands of years no demon could do it and nezuko did it so there must be an explanation in the manga, there has to be. Just tell the chapter number and that's it.

THERE is no explanation other than -it's a huge plot hole/armour, which was needed for the story to go on.

it was maybe because since yorichi passed on sun breathing technique to kamados that might be a reason

Theres no explanation, same as how theres no explanation to how genya can eat demon flesh and gain it strength. One of demon slayers biggest flaws is its patchy world building and these are just prime examples of that.

somewhere i read/saw that Nezuko’s mother made her tea (?)/soup (?) from blue spider lily when she was ill. But i guess thats just a theory?

The information he gave was wrong Nezuko never ate the blue spider lily. In chapter 39 The blue spider lily was only shown to Tanjiro when he was young and no one else from his siblings saw it.

Even his mother told him the flower is posinonus so don't eat it, so no one ate the flower

Yes the sun breathing is passed down to Kamdo familes, they all were performing the dances and breathing technique but they never was a demon hunters until Tanjiro.

So maybe bcoz of the Sun breathing they both are immune to sun even if they both became demons

Also there is no proper explanation in manga or LN about this regarding both of their immunity as a demon towards the sun. So u have to assume it by your own.

It's a plot hole/ armour

Let me give you a simple and straight reason -

she was the only demon who didn't eat any human or drink any human blood. All other demons did it because drinking blood is an instinct for demons.

She was unconscious for years so she overcame that instinct.

Most of it is left up to viewer's interpretation, but If what Muzan said is true and he is correct, then it seems that it is due to influence of Sun Brearhing user and being from Kamado bloodline, because

It is also obvious since the very beginning, that Nezuko is a very unique demon by how she never submitted to Muzan's influence nor did she ever consumed any human, so this outcome is totally in the realm of possibility.
Keep in mind, that the entire reason Muzan was creating demons is to finally aquite and absorb the one who would be able to walk in the sun.

I wouldn't consider this as a plot hole, nor an asspull, because from what we have seen so far, we should at least acknowledge Nezuko gaining immunity to sunlight being in the realm of possibility.

Koyoharu never specifically explains it, it’s just another way that Nezuko isn’t a normal demon.

Is it plot armor? Not at all, Koyoharu didn’t haven’t to put that in place for Nezuko to stay alive, it’s just a change in the story to up the stakes.

It's not a plot hole, it's just a convenient plot device to keep the story going, nothing more, nothing less.

The best you will find are theories but then again, I don't give a rats ass about theories, I rather have the manga/anime explaining properly these types of big events since they are game changers and some theory won't cut it for me. Demon Slayer simply suck ass at explaining things and this isn't the only time it happened, Demon Slayer leaves things unexplained or half-assed, it also happened with:

*The sword changing colors, and why Tanjiro's sword is black, was never explained
*Tanjiro seeing the ghosts of dead people and even communicating with them
*Tanjiro having good smell
*Zenitsu having good hearing
*The eating demon gun guy gaining demon powers
etc...

In my opinion, some of the above issues could be fixed like this, Tanjiro's sword turns black because, for some reason, he has some affinity with the dead, so he's able to see the ghosts of dead people and he can even communicate with them. It sounds silly, but at least it's an explanation for his sword turning black, seeing ghosts, or communicating with them, I find this explanation better than leaving them half-assed.

From what I understood every time Nezuko slept in the show her cells were evolving. Like how at first she couldn’t use blood demon art then by the time we get further in story she can because of how many times she has slept allowing her to recover and get stronger. So since we are about halfway maybe a bit halfway done with the series the author decided that it was long enough in the series for her cells to be fully grown and for her to evolve as a demon and resist the sun. It is explained when the doctor (forgot her name) is explaining about nezukos condition right before tanjiro cuts the coward demon head off. Specifically chapter 127 it isn’t explained very well in my opinion but what’s what I understood from it

That's just another theory, we have plenty of theories already.

Let's just accept the fact that Demon Slayer suck ass at explaining things and move on, this isn't the only time this happened, I already provided some examples above.

No they don’t explain it properly and while medicine lady did say that Nezuko’s blood is constantly changing, it still doesn’t change the fact that it’s LAZY writing. “Nezuko blood is changing” is so vague, that could mean a lot of different things and doesn’t justify her surviving the sun. Nezuko was literally BURNING in the sun then as soon as Tanjiro turned around she was miraculously healed. So you mean to tell me her blood morphed so rapidly that she would survive being SCORCHED from the very same sun that was burning her alive 2 minutes earlier?? No, absolutely not. Anyone who says this isn’t an ass pull is delusional.

Not really a "fan theory" because I literally explained earlier the reason earlier. Author literally just expects the viewers to connect two dots. That's it.
Also, if you really prefer everything to be hamfisted and leave no room for viewer's interpretation and belive that forshadowing is plot hole, then you do yours, but know that's what lazy writing actually is and one of the main reason shows like SAO are receiving much shit.

lol, it's observation not theory! She is with Tanjiro for every part of the show and she didn't drink any blood. You people don't have a simple understanding and complain about the lazy writing of a show earning in billions...

While I can't speak of Genya's ability or Tanjiro's sense of smell, the black blade is pretty much self explanatory. The nichirin swords are made with ore that absorbs the sun. Depending on the breathing style of the user they change color. Sun breathing is the original breath with all other breaths being only a part of it. Black is a color that absorbs all light with all other colors only absorbing part of the light.

Tamayo sees that Nezuko's blood is changing but she can only speculate on why. If burning in the sun is a curse placed on demons for killing and eating humans then it stands to reason that one possible way to break the curse would be to sacrifice yourself for humans. And what is Nezuko shown doing between her "burning in the sun" and being "miraculously healed"? Just because the answer isn't spoon fed to you doesn't make it an asspull.

Nezuko's conditions remind me of a horror movie bird box(not sure) where invisible existence can mind control you and forced you to do sui**** just by watching it and in the end of the movie it is stated humans environments can caused changes in human's body / DNA which is further evolved with a person's stress and other feelings and later a girl's blood ended up as an antidote against that creature's power in short humans body itself a mysterious thing or for eg in my country during pandemic people were like once u suffered with covid your body becomes antibody which is entirely not right or not at all right coz I've seen people suffering with it back to back 3 to 4 times but again the vaccines we used are kind of following the same theory
Now in s3 tamayo mentioned nezuko's blood is showing a very drastic changes yet very rapidly and thanks to her blood it helped the man to break muzan's control (the one muzan turned into a demon when tanjiro met him 1st time) so in short Nezuko's blood is already becoming an antidote against muzan's blood cell at this point and considering Nezuko's bda is always a special case how comes it doesn't work on humans but only on demons this are the clear signs her body is adapting against the muzan's blood cells and started to rewrite them with hers and this scene of tamayo is going to show the importance of nezuko's blood in future's last battle but yes author didn't clear anything in details but watching this kind of movies help me to understand nezuko's case much easily.
