Reborn in Demon Slayer as Tekeo Kamado

Introduction

Alright, this fanfic is gonna shake things up a bit from the typical anime storyline. Our main character is Tekeo Kamado, the third oldest sibling after Nezuko. But here's the twist – everyone starts off three years older than they are in the manga. So, 13-year-old Tanjiro is now 16, 12-year-old Nezuko is now 15, and our boy Tekeo starts off at 14.

Tekeo's Special Traits

Tekeo gets a bit of a cheat (don't worry, it's totally fair). He's ambidextrous, meaning he can use both hands equally well, giving him an edge in strength, speed, and control. Plus, he'll get a decent power later on – not too overpowered, but enough to help him grow strong. The goal is for Tekeo to become as strong as, or just slightly weaker than, Giyu in about 4+ years.

Timeline and Growth

The original manga spans around 4.5 years, including Tanjiro's 2 years of training with Urokodaki, several months of injuries, and the training arc. By the time it's time to take down Muzan, Tekeo will be strong enough to solo Upper Moon 6.

Breathing Techniques

A quick clarification: Breathing techniques aren't just about swordplay. They help guide oxygen and air through the body to enhance techniques. For example, all sword techniques involve slashes and stabs, but they vary based on breathing styles. This means breathing styles can be used with different weapons or even the body. The color of the blade determines which breath suits you best, with black blades referring to the Breath of the Sun.

Love Interest

For the romance angle, I'm thinking Aoi and Tekeo would make a cute couple. We'll see how their relationship develops and if they're truly a good match. Personally, I think they look great together. Aoi for best girl, right?
