average Managi behavior

by the way, Hantengu's headband thingy was made by Managi. in fact, Managi dresses him up often because he refuses to work with a 'boring' looking pillar.

Reincarnation AU

The demons all retains their memories, and for early karma they were born with some of their demonic features.

Michikatsu and Yoriichi are both born with birthmarks, but as they grew up Michikatsu's began to spread all over his body. He also became much taller than Yoriichi by the time they were 23, Yoriichi is 190 cm and Michikatsu is 200 cm.

Douma doesn't have rainbow eyes or silver hair, but he was born with very pale skin. It looks like he has frostbite and his parents thought he was dead and almost dump him in a river (he was still born in a cult).

Akaza/Hakuji was born with three birthmarks on each of his arms and has fangs the moment he was born. He's not even bothered, but during his school days he was held off by the teachers because they thought it was a tattoo.

Hantengu was born with pointed ears. When he was younger a lot of kids picked him for it, saying that he must be a demon in his previous life. This is also how he met his future wife.

Hantengu's sons and grandsons also have pointed ears, but those were easily hidden by their long hair.

Gyokko/Managi has strange marks on his legs that looks like fish scales.

Gyutaro has black spots on his face and body just like he had in his previous life. He still has his sharp teeth.

Daki/Ume had red spots all over her body that looks like rashes when she was born. They dissappear when she grew up.

Nakime is born with one eye. The other is an empty eye socket. She can see just fine, but needs help since she lacks depth perception.

Kaigaku has stripes all over his face and body like a tiger's. His mother and her side of the family is very superstitious, and believes that he must be an incarnation of a demon. His father sends him to an orphanage belonged to a friend of his before his wife and her family can kill Kaigaku. He divorced his wife and cut all ties with her a month later.

Wisp rambles about GyoTengu, the post.

I'm digging in my own grave... But whatever.

Swap AU is hinted at with a $ in front.But SO!

We have the very obvious difference in aesthetics, no matter where you look. Gyokko is primarily white, but there's obvious color everywhere you look. Meanwhile, Hantengu appears as a usually dark colored old man. His tones make it hard to discern color. The only thing in common in their looks is that they're... grotesque, in a sense. Gyokko is self explanatory, with what his face in all the wrong spots, and his damn arms as well. Hantengu is a bit more low-key on this, with his lack of eye definition, gnarly limbs and nails, and massive tumor jutting out of his forehead.

And their personalities are also distinct. Gyokko is extroverted, (and the only one to reciprocate friendly feelings with Douma, to boot!), arrogant, egotistical, and macabre. He's very in your face about things. Hantengu, on the other hand is very much a coward, and afraid of nearly everything. He's introverted by definition, clearly presents as pathetic, a nervous wreck, and would clearly rather remain low-key.

But there IS one thing that they DO have alike though: their "delusions".

Gyokko believes himself to be a great artiste and a thing of beauty, and liked.... Hantengu thinks that, no matter what he does, he's innocent of wrong-doing, regardless of how out-there it seems.

Between that... It would seem like they'd never get along.

And you may have a point: their only canon interaction is when Hantengu is criticizing Gyokko on his lack of time frame (he said it was 90 year's since a meeting was called, when it was only 103<).

HOWEVER.

It's a comfort HC of mine, so to speak, that they're quite good friends with each other. I believe that their uh... (gestures to everything) will work creepily well. And I can see the two having a twistedly caring bond with each other. $And even as the Pillars, they might actually have a better chance at this, since, mostly through process of elimination (I gave Gyokko Mitsuri's role, while Hantengu got Iguro's)$ Still, you can assume where this heads with my suggestion, and their given roles.

They are as the sun and moon, distinct, yet reliant on each other.

Hantengu is the hateful introvert, Gyokko is the unorthodox extrovert.

Believe it or not, Hantengu actually makes the first move no matter where you look.

Perhaps it was under the urgings of the clones, or an awkward conversation starter, but it's there. And it's an odd feeling. For the both of them.

Gyokko, who only extended this "love" to another person once as a human, and only focuses his "love" towards his art, was attached to this rat (affectionate)? Hantengu, who's every extent of his "love" ended with a widow's kiss, and holds his "love" in a separate entity (Urogi, and not really) entirely from himself, was attached to this beast (affectionate)?

Very confusing indeed.

$Kokushibo somehow figured out that they're in love with each other WAY before even Hantengu did. And when he (terrifyingly) confessed to him, he just went, "Ah. Is he aware of it as well?"$

$So he goes, "P-Probably n-Wait what?!"$ (You can tell he's pining a bit...)

No matter what, Kokushibo figures it out, Douma grills him for it, Sekido, Aizetsu, Urogi, Karaku and Zohakuten playing reluctant match maker, and Gyokko himself finds it out WAY. TOO. DAMN. LATE.

Yes. Poor Gyokko indeed. In either case, I believe that he had made him a vase (corpse tree in the vase up to you in canon specifics) as a gift, only, you know, he forgot to give it to him. It was based off a scene of a rare calm Hantengu. You guessed it, Kokushibo figured its existence before its intended target.

This can serve as a nice scene of ship tease in either canon, before their uh... deaths.

See, if Iguro and Mitsuri get their scenes, of course these bastards do so also! $I'm actually working a post on how Hantengu views the other Pillars, and another HC comes into play with their relationship that can't be recreated in canon.$

The HC in question? Hmm...

$Inspired by Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth for this... Hantengu is just his last name. His given name is "Shiko". Plainly translated as "Fourth (or something death related) Child", it's very demeaning for someone like him. As he hates his name, he just says his name is "Hantengu" and nothing more. The only one to know this name is, you guessed it, Gyokko (named Managi Mizamura)! He just shrugged it off when he got told of it... and then he clarified why. Yeah. He promised to never call him by that again. But for a hint of tragedy, I like to believe that he asked him to call him that (for some damn reason) when they died together.$

Hehehe... Dear Rei provided me with some inspo... So I finished this specific HC in her honor.

Modern!Human Hantengu Brothers headcanons

Heeeyyyy babiesss!!! I’m sorry it’s so late but I FINALLY GOT MY HANTENGU BROTHERS HEADCANONS DONE 🥹🥹!! I sincerely hope y’all enjoy them!

Alright so, The headcanon came from the roots in the manga. Hantengu (the demon) was known to have multiple wives and children and he killed every last one of them. After Muzan’s defeat & Hantengu was reborn, he sadly abandoned his wife and his two children because he still had his memories from his past life and felt guilt & fear. His son grew a bit of resentment for him and promised that when he became a father that he would be there for his children through and through. He met the Brothers’ mother because she was visiting Japan from Nigeria and fell absolutely head over heels in love with her. They soon started dating after getting to know each other. Then married later on and their first born son, Sekido was born, then came Karaku, Aizetsu, Urogi , & Zohakuten.

Their Mother, Dr. Kehinde Adeyinka- Hantengu is a OBGYN & their father Urami Hantengu is a co director for a very big movie production company. ( my boys came from riches but still humble )

Their parents come from different cultures so they always brought them up in a way where they were exposed to both equally. They know Japanese (that does include how to write in Japanese too), Yoruba, Nigerian Pidgin, English, and Swahili.

SEKIDO

• Much like his past life, Sekido still remains the oldest. His birthday is September 3rd, 1995 making our angery baby a Virgo ♍️.

• When I tell yall he is nonchalantttt!! Whew! He literally says the first thing that comes on his mind. His mom always told him that he was like his father in that regard.

• Also much like his past life, he always looks angered (Resting bitch face go brrrrrrr) Most people are kinda afraid to approach him.

• Definitely gets annoyed by his brothers antics (mostly Urogi and Karaku playing pranks on him and pissing him off and Aizetsu constantly second guessing himself)

• Loves the rain and finds it peaceful when it’s thundering outside.. it sets the mood when he’s by himself playing the piano (one of his hidden talents)

• He works as a Auto mechanic at his own shop. (which explains how he knows to keep his cars in perfect condition)

• He is most DEFINITELY a cat person. He has a Black Maine coon mix named Zeus. He found him just laying on top of one of his cars one day as he was getting ready to go get groceries and when he came back from the store, he was sitting in front of his apartment and he started growing fond of him and took him in. Zeus is spoiled rotten so I can only imagine when Sekido gets a partner 🫠.

• Is a greeeeeaaaaattttt cook! Other than their mother, his brothers usually latch on to his place when he does cook. (He definitely has a special apron on when he cooks too) He learned from his momma 🤩

• Has a giant dragon tattoo on his back that was drawn by Zohakuten and tattooed by Managi (Modern Human Gyokko. In my headcanon, he’s a famous Tattoo artist that grew fame from TikTok)

• Definitely is a Heavy sleeper but don’t let that MF Fan Turn off. He gonna wake up PISSED.

• Academically speaking, Sekido is extremely intelligent. He graduated top of his class in High school & has a degree in Engineering (he also graduated top of his class in college too)

• BLACK COFFEE ADDICT! Can’t stand overly sweet coffee or sweet ANYTHING. Likes really savory foods! Lots of meat but not too too much. Also loves vegetables, stews, curry’s, and etc. The only thing he can tolerate that relates to sweet foods is dark chocolate.

• Definitely the type to go to bed by 10 pm (grumpy old man 😂😂)

• LISTEN! My baby is BUILTTTTTTT. He definitely hits the gym after work He’ll OCCASIONALLY go with Karaku if he doesn’t have to work. He’s also tall (he’s 6’3 1/2 and the tallest out of the brothers)

• He adores his family and anyone he deems close although he does get annoyed with their shenanigans he will always and forever care.

• y’all know that bath & body works scent “ Mahogany Teakwood” yeah, literally smells like that plus Shea butter & mint.

KARAKU

• Karaku is the second Born like his past carnation. He was born on October 4, 1996 making him a Libra baby.

• He’s literally a big kid at heart but he’s really chill and down to earth.

• Much like his past life he’s really playful and loves a good thrill. It makes his blood pump lol.

• Loves teasing his brothers (mostly Sekido and Aizetsu) One time he played a prank on Sekido while he was asleep by putting a realistic looking robotic spider on him (poor Seki has arachnophobia 🥲) & when he woke up all hell broke loose and when he finally caught Karaku, he put him in a chokehold and it took Urogi and Aizetsu to get him off of Karaku. 😂😂😂 and you’d think after that he’d learn his lesson (he didn’t)

• He works as a Bartending Manager for a big club and always makes good money in tips because one he loves serving the drinks and seeing people’s reaction to his drinks and they all love him dearly.

• Speaking of, he Is a masttttterrrrr at creating drink recipes and has a miniature bar at his place. He’s also a fairly decent cook but still annoys Sekido because he likes his better 😂.

• Like I’ve said before, mans is a seriously talented dancer & he effortlessly woos people with his moves ever since he went viral online & has a lots of fans (no pun intended).

• He also posts videos of him making drinks on TikTok too and always picks the best songs but people mostly like when he does voice overs of what he puts in drinks.

• He also does Twitch streams from time to time playing games( likes games like FNAF, Dead by Daylight, or any kind of scary games.)

• I also headcanon that he loves Halloween mostly because it’s during his birth month.

• Has one tattoo on his arm of his moms first name. His mom always told him that he reminds her of herself back in her youth.

• Loves all animals but is more so a Dog person.

• HE DOES SMOKE WEED & VAPE!

• Academically he made A’s & B’s in high school so he is quite smart but still goofed off in class though 😂. He has a Bachelors Degree in Communications and is also apart of a Fraternity.

• DEFINITELY A GYM BRO BUT NOT THE TOXIC KIND. Takes his physical health and physique seriously but never ever talks bad about how anyone else chooses to do with their body. If they are happy, he is as well. He’s definitely not a bodyshamer & will put someone in check if they talk bad about someone around him.

• HES A LIGHT SLEEPER. Any little sound will wake him up instantly. One time he came home from work so tired that he forgot that he connected his phone to his big bluetooth speaker while he took a shower & also forgot that he set an alarm to wake him up in the morning for the gym and damn near had a heart attack when his alarm went off. 🥲

• Loves energy drinks and coffee but knows his limits on his intake and that too much caffeine isn’t good. DEFINITELY MEAL PREPS! Has meats, vegetables, and fruits.

• Like I Said, he takes his personal physical seriously. He has a skin care routine and he also smells really good too .. it’s like a Citrusy and warm vanilla type scent mixed with hints of his favorite cologne.

• He’s also fairly tall too standing at about 6’2

• He’s heavily into zodiac signs and reads his horoscope on the daily! Got the rest of his brothers into it. Sekido & Zoha thought it was stupid until they both did some research and it started singling out their individual character traits & that’s what sparked their interests in it.

• He’s a lover at heart so anybody that he loves he has them near and dear to his heart. If he loves you then you’re a 4LIFERRRRR.

AIZETSU

• So he’s the middle child! His Birthday is February 20, 1998 making Zetsy a Pisces baby!

• Much like his past incarnation he’s quiet & monotone if he’s not comfortable around you but once he is comfortable he becomes relaxed and more expressive. Is very introverted.

• He was kind of bullied in school due to his quiet and timid behavior but when asked his opinion on something, much like his older brother Sekido he wouldn’t hold back the truth (it’s always the quiet ones)

• I would like to think that Aizetsu is heavily into meditation because it calms his anxiety and his nerves.

• PLEASE GIVE THIS BABY WORDS OF AFFIRMATION AND REASSURANCE!

• Aizetsu works as a computer tech and is very good with technology. He’s been very tech savvy since he was a kid always learning how it functions and knowing the ins and outs of it. He also works part time as a Lyft driver.

• His hidden talent is singing! Like I said in my last post, Aizetsu is a hellllaaaa talented singer but he only does so in private but if he sings around someone that means he’s comfortable with them.

• He’s into Zodiac signs thanks to Karaku. He’s a water sign (Team waterrrr) so he’s really good at seeing through people and strays away from those who he determines to be not good people.

• Doesn’t really go to the gym. He thinks it’s way too many people. Instead he finds alternatives at home and he was blessed with a high metabolism too so that’s a W for him. But don’t let that fool you, under what he covers up, he’s still buff. He is about 6’2, same height as Karaku.

• Made excellent grades in school. Mostly all As and graduated top of his class like his brother. He is currently in college pursuing software engineering and is still doing excellent academically!

• Is a good cook at best. Only sticks to simple stuff and doesn’t really like to go all out. Not particular about food but in the same breath, he does lean towards savory foods.

• Doesn’t have any tattoos but low key wants a treble clef tattoo on his chest or something small.

• Has a pet Bearded dragon named Toothless.

• Smells really good! I think he would smell like Cinnamon. Skin does get irritated during the summer time but it’s not severe. Does get tips from Karaku about skin care.

• Is much more of a tea kind of person and loves herbal tea (chamomile is his favorite)

• Not really much of a sweets kind of person.

• IS A VERY LIGHT SLEEPER. Imagine Karaku x10!! Will wake up if he hears the smallest sound or if the temperature is not to his liking (he keeps his place on 64 degrees AT ALL TIMES).

• Aizetsu is a very gentle, understanding, sweet, and thoughtful person and he has times where he second guesses himself but he definitely has a good crowd of people around him to keep his head held high.

UROGI

• Like his past incarnation he’s the second to last born. His Birthday is January 4th, 1999 ( he’s only 11 months younger than Aizetsu)

• He is most DEFINITELY a wild child lmao! He’s like Karaku x3000 when it comes to getting a thrill out of doing some shit. As a child he used to like to jump off of crazy shit and oddly would not get hurt 😅

• Has always been hella adventurous since he was a young lad. Always loved being outdoors and being in nature and still does in his adulthood. Likes going hiking & climbing. He feels at peace outdoors.

• He once climbed a whole fucking billboard and sat there for like 10 minutes ( Karaku and one of their cousins has a recording of him climbing it)

• Not only is he super flexible and athletic but he’s also very musically inclined too. His singing voice is on par with Aizetsu and he can read and write music (to an extent).

• Urogi works at the same bar as Karaku (Yes they work together) literally trouble but make it double 😂😂. Much to anyone’s surprise they don’t cause THAT much chaos. If Karaku is thing one then Urogi is thing two!

• He also loves coming up with different type of recipes and they are all a hit. Him and Karaku compete to see whose drinks are the best at work but it’s all brotherly competition and never any hard feelings.

• Heavily into gymnastics too & have been since he was little! So you know he keeps his body in great condition and goes to the gym everyday! He is about 6’1 1/2.

• Academically he made a mixture of A’s, B’s, and some C’s. Never went below a C. Is very smart but is whole ass class clown. It only took one time for his parents to get onto him and he never caused any significant distractions again lmao. Did not want to attend college but chose to follow what he felt was good for him. At first his parents were a little mad but they let Urogi decide what was best for him and supported whatever he decided (WE LOVE GOOD NON TOXIC PARENTING 🥹).

• Can cook but absolutely hates doing it. Prefers takeout instead and only cooks when he is in the mood to do so.

• Very much a HEAVY ASS SLEEPER & SNORES. Can probably sleep through a loud ass storm.

• Smells very earthy but not in a bad way. Like a combination of Pine and Sandalwood. (His favorite body wash is Dove Sandalwood for its earthy tone) Has seasonal breakouts but worst during winter (poor baby)

• He definitely smokes weed but by himself or with Karaku.

• His weakness: HE LOVES SWEETS & JUNK FOOD. Mans can literally eat a XL pizza by himself.

• Urogi is all together a very friendly, eclectic, and outgoing person and everyone can’t help but love him (even though he sometimes drives them crazy) 😂

ZOHAKUTEN

• He’s the last born baby of the brothers! He was born July 21st, 2007 so he is a Cancer baby!

• Like Sekido and Aizetsu, Zohakuten is a rather quiet, reserved person. But he is hellllaaaaa blunt. Zohakuten’s tone may come off a bit direct and blunt and a little harsh but I think he means well. (Sometimes)

• INTROVERTED.

• Also like his brother, he DEFINITELY has a resting bitch face and is his dads literally mini me.

• He is very much into art and loves graphic design. He’s also a very skilled digital artist as well.

• As a matter of fact, he drew the dragon design that Sekido has tattooed on his back for his birthday last year.

• He is still in high school and is very close to his senior year!! He makes excellent grades in school with straight A’s and has always.

• He is also a band student too! He plays the snare drums.

• After Highschool he does hope to help his dad out at the studio and work to save up for college. He wants to pursue a career in art.

• Since he still lives at home of course he gets spoiled by his parents but I don’t see him being the petty type like rubbing it in his brothers faces. Hell they be spoiling him too.

• He hits the gym with his brothers when they go. It’s like part of a bonding experience.

• He is about 5’9 ( his mom thinks that he’s on the brink of a major growth spurt.) For more context, their mom is 5’11 (momma a stallionnnn) and their dad is 6’7.

• HE HATES SWEETS! Prefers spicy foods though! Literally will go through a family sized bag of hot chips in 30 minutes and nobody knows how. (Not even me.) 😂😂😂.

• HEAVY ASS SLEEPER! That’s it that’s the post.

• Is willing to learn how to cook but only trusts his mother or Sekido to teach him.

• Karaku got him into zodiac signs too. He didn’t understand the concept at first until he read further and started seeing his attitude traits in what he read on Cancers.

• Not a people person but it is not as bad as his past incarnation where he bathed in hatred. Is willing to make some changes to his attitude and approach especially pursuing a career that deals with customers commissioning him for his arts but PLEASE do not piss him off or rush his work.

• He may not show it but he lovvvveesssss and adores his family!

I genuinely hope you all enjoyed my headcanons. I had been putting it off and putting it off and making revisions but I think that I love my headcanons for them. There are of course some more to come though so keep your eyes peeled. I will eventually start writing for more fandoms but I gotta let this Hantengu clone brainrot out somehow lmao.

it him.. Managi aka Gyokko

other than making swords he also love making vase.. all his swordsmen get an additional vase upon receiving their swords. his sword's tsuba always have intricate design

meeting the husband

[gyotengu-daily]

Made a quick fic based off of a post I made

Word count: 145

Gyokko's baby hands pinched and pressed on the tumor-like bulge on Hantengu's head, who seemingly didn't notice or mind his futile attempts at popping it.

It was not until Gyokko heard screaming when he woke up, though his sleep mask fully obscured his vision. Though he couldn't see anything, he could feel that he was pinching something.

Suddenly, Obie's elbow hit his throat as he screamed in shock and or pain, probably both, making Managi release his fingers from the thing he was pinching, as he coughed.

"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Obie yelled as he cupped his hand over his pinched nipple, still too sleepy to realize he elbowed his husband.

"I was trying- to pop your pimple" Managi finally croaked out as he took off his sleeping mask, only to be greeted by the most judgemental look Obie had ever expressed.

[ordinaryartistt]

Swap AU: Gyokko's backstory!

Managi (Gyokko's human name) was born in a village at the edge of the costline, when he was 13, his parents went out on a fishing trip and never came back, after a while, everyone assumed they died at sea, during this time of mourning, Managi found solace in art, specifically pottery.

One night, when Managi was going to bed, the door was busted open, it was his mother who turned into a demon, the two fought each other, but with the added strength of being a demon, she overpowered Managi, but before she could eat him, the former water hashira killed her.

Pitying Managi, she took him in as her own, and taught him water breathing.

Uppermoons If They Existed in Genshin Impact AU

Disclaimer: these are my opinions based on their personalities and abilities. If you disagree, that's fine. Also spoilers for some of the demons' real names. And I call Muzan Michael Jackson once so yea

So a few things to explain: In this AU, the Uppermoons sort of replace the Fatui. So that's how I've written it. I even came up with dumb codenames for them.

Also this is the reasoning for each vision (my own interpretation, idk if there is a canon reason)

Anemo - Given to those seeking freedom above all else

Geo - Given to those who live life pursuing what they believe to be prosperous

Electro - Given to those who don't fit in

Dendro - Given to those of high intelligence/or a passion for learning

Hydro - Given to those with a strong sense of justice

Pyro - Given to those with passionate spirits

Cryo - Given to those fighting for something they believe in after suffering hardships

Anyway. Order is weakest to strongest so first up is-

Rui

Lowermoon 5 of the 12 Kizuki; in this AU he'd be the Eleventh of the Eleven Harbingers

Rui is known as the "Spider Demon"; his Blood Demon Art is called Thread Manipulation. Between being Catalyst or Bow, I think he'd be a bow user

Rui would have a cryo vision. Doesn't make complete sense for him, but it's close enough for what his abilities can do

Codename: The Puppeteer

Enmu

Lowermoon 1 of the 12 Kizuki; in this AU he'd be the Tenth of the Eleven Harbingers

Enmu's blood demon art centers a lot around dreamscapes, so he would be a catalyst user

Enmu would have a dendro vision. Mostly because he's decently smart, and Sumeru is heavily associated with dreaming so dendro kinda makes sense for Enmu

Codename: The Illusionist

Daki [Ume]

Uppermoon 6 of the 12 Kizuki; in this AU she'd be the Ninth of the Eleven Harbingers. Not the weakest but probably would be if Enmu and Rui weren't here

Her blood demon art utilizes long range; so she'd be a bow user. Possibly with a style sorta similiar to something like Yelan has? (In terms of elemental abilities)

Daki would have an electro vision. Would probably behave similiarly to Fischl with Gyutaro acting as Oz to fuel her delusions

Codename: The Oiran

Kaigaku

Replacement for Uppermoon 6 of the 12 Kizuki; Kaigaku would be the Eighth of the Eleven Harbingers

Due to him originally being a demon slayer before being surrendering to Kokushibo, Kaigaku would be a sword user

Kaigaku does not possess a vision as he has no ambition for the gods to recognize, so instead he has a delusion that grants him electro abilities

*Kaigaku's strength is only possibly due to his delusion. Without it, he'd probably be weaker than Rui.

Codename: The Egoist

Gyokko [Managi]

Uppermoon 5 of the 12 Kizuki; Gyokko would be equivalent to the Seventh of the Eleven Harbingers

As his blood demon art centers a lot around water and being able to summon those fish demons as well as his vases, Gyokko would be a claymore user

I am well aware that Gyokko centers around water and being some ugly as fuck fish demon, but he would have a pyro vision

Codename: The Artist

Nakime

Replacement for Uppermoon 4; Nakime would be the Sixth of the Eleven Harbingers

As her blood demon art centers around her biwa, I can imagine her being a claymore (I'm mostly thinking of Xinyan here lol)

Nakime would have an anemo vision

Codename: The Musician

Gyutaro

Uppermoon 6; he'd be the Fifth of the Eleven Harbingers (decision was made based on how supposedly he could've risen to upper 4 if not for Daki)

Gyutaro's blood demon art centers around his pair of sickles that secrete poison, so he would be a polearm user

I originally couldn't decide on his vision. But decided to go with hydro, mostly so he could pair well with Daki's electro vision

Codename: The Guardian

Hantengu

Uppermoon 4; he'd be the Fourth of the Eleven Harbingers

Hantengu's blood demon art supposedly centers around stealth, but he is capable of splitting himself into his emotions. Hantengu would probably be a bow user

He'd have an anemo vision; can honestly imagine his elemental burst looking something like Keqing's burst

Codename: The Cluster

Akaza [Hakuji]

Uppermoon 3; Akaza would be the Third of the Eleven Harbingers

His blood demon art utilizes his martial arts skills, so he'd probably be a catalyst with a similiar style to Heizou

Akaza would have a cryo vision

Codename: The Convict

Douma

Uppermoon 2; Douma would be the Second of the Eleven Harbingers (100% just as psychotic as Dottore, he's already ruined 2- maybe more- children)

Douma's blood demon art heavily centers around his ice, so he'd be a catalyst user

I know he uses ice canonically- but Douma has a geo vision not a cryo vision

Codename: The Davidian

Kokushibo [Michikatsu]

Uppermoon 1; meaning he's the First of the Eleven Harbingers

As Kokushibo was once a demon slayer, he would be a sword user

Idk wtf Moon Breathing is meant to be similiar to- so Kokushibo has a cryo vision. His attacks would probably be more space-themed like Mona but in a style similiar to Chongyun's

Codename: The Prevaricator

Muzan Kibutsuji

The King of Demons; obviously since I've labeled his moons as the Harbingers that must mean he's the cryo archon right? No. Aboslutely not. Muzan is a FRAUD. Just a front pretending to be the cryo archon </3

Muzan's abilities seem to be based around long range (the tentacles?) so he'd be a catalyst

Michael Jackson here has no real ambition for the gods to recognize so he does not have a vision but rather a delusion. His delusion would be dendro

Codename: He isn't good enough for a codename

Next up: The Hashiras

[toxic-potions-productions]

All (most) the swap au characters & who they're swapped with (Some have more than one role, I'm so sorry)

Tanjiro -> Nezuko (& vice versa, obviously) (Tanj doesn't always need or wear his muzzle, & can also talk just fine. He just wears it for fun)

Yuzuki -> Kawa/Mitsuri (Same age in canon, so she isn't getting Yuzuki's outfit. Fuck you, Masao)

Akari -> Rengoku (Same age as Rengoku, so aged up by a year)

Douma -> Shinobu (Basically a rule for swap aus LMAO) (Ice hashira, with his BDA forms being his breathing style forms)

Akaza, or Hakuji in this case -> Giyuu (Destruction hashira)

Michikatsu -> Zakiko/Gyomei (Moon hashira, taking from Zakiko in this au, but added his own little twists to it to resemble stone breathing on some forms)

Daki, or Ume -> Tengen (But acts like her canon self) (Ribbon breathing, with all her BDA forms & her belt acting like her breathing style. Fighting style is a mix of canon Daki & Mitsuri's fighting style)

Hantengu -> Sanemi (His main emotions are Zohakuten & Sekido, BTW) (Electricity hashira, due to Sekido being a main of his)

Nakime -> Obanai (Music hashira)

Gyokko, or Managi -> Muichiro (But acts nothing like Mui XDDD) (Ocean hashira, with his BDA forms acting as breathing style forms)

Gyutaro -> Tengen (He & Ume share the Tengen role like how they share upper six) (Poison hashira)

Muzan -> Kagaya (Still has the curse, but can see & move around relatively fine. Let's just say he's a stubborn dude who isn't going down that easily XD)

Rei (Muzan's wife from season one) -> Amane (Purely because she is way too underrated & needs more love)

Genya -> Kaigaku (Cuz again, if there's a demand for Kaigaku, I'll add him. Besides, swap aus of Kaigaku are alot better than the real thing, I'm sorry--)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Most of the background characters are basically the same, like Yoriichi & Uta, Urokodaki, Sabito & Makomo, & things like that

& yes, I know who I put for Mitsuri & Obanai. But, there's no ships!!

I highly doubt there was a demand for this, but I touched on a few swap au things, so i might as well go all out

Designs coming..........eventually ≡(▔﹏▔)≡

Kizuki - Hashira swap AU : Managi (Gyokko)

fish pillar or something... an eccentric young man

[emeraldtart]

Reincarnation AU Managi/Gyokko

Managi is a quiet kid, a member of the Art Club. He sits at the backmost seat in class, so no body really know about him. No one even knows his name.

He usually makes potteries and watercolour art, but most of them are destroyed either by himself or because of Uzui's dynamites. As much as Managi loves art, he can't admire his own work without being reminded of the sins in his previous life

Until he met a certain student.

Managi was just painting a nearby cat (Chachamaru's descendants) when somebody commented that his drawing is beautiful. He would push that person away, but ended up talking about different brushes and inks used in traditional paintings. Managi even gave some pointers to the red-eyed student. When he left, Managi realized he never got his name.

The rest of Sekido's family are freaking out because holy crap, is Sekido smiling!? Is the world coming to an end soon!!?

Nah, he's just thinking about the cute guy from school.

[wispisstillverybored67]

Giving the Pillars (and the youths™) names. +Something else.

(Note: to distinguish this AU from canon, I've taken to referring the 12-Pillars as, well, the Pillars, while the Pillars-12 remain the Hashira in canon. Additionally, everyone's names are written last-name-first.)

Moon Pillar Tsugikune Michikatsu

Nicknamed "Kokushibo" among the Pillars. Joined the Corps as a sort of redemption of what he had done as a Demon in the service of Oyakata-dono (Kagaya, having swapped places with Muzan). Seems to distance himself from the other Pillars, but on a closer look, it's clear that the other's are distancing themselves from him. Why? They're all terrified of him. Plus, he's just introverted. Doesn't wear the standard uniform (again, tying into his "redemption", and the belief that someone unclean, something like him shouldn't be wearing that), but he did etch the "destroy" "kanji" (I think? I don't know...) onto his standard garb and prized sword. Has ever only had one tsuguko, Kaigaku, and it's clear he doesn't respect him at all (or is it? no matter...). His crow doesn't seem to respect him either. Actually, he's terrified of him. Enjoy's the Music Pillar's presence, and her music especially. The Paradise Pillar claims he saw him shed a single tear from something, but no one is in a hurry to know why. His mark, like in canon, is on his face, but it will fade if he becomes human again. Moon Breathing syncs up, and is based on, the moon's changing face, and the way he pulls it off makes it appear as if he's dancing.

Paradise Pillar Fuyuyoshi Douma

Given name is lost to history, as far as he cares. His nickname became his given name, and he likes the way it sounds better. Joined the Corps on a whim, seeing no other (fun, foreseeable) future for himself when his cult was nearly annihilated and then disbanded. He likes chatting to everyone around him, especially his fellow Pillars, but only the Fish Pillar seems to reciprocate... enough. Trained the current Balance Pillar and the Silk "Pillar" as tsuguko way back when, and is still quite parental to them. Prefers to use two nichirin war fans, but knows a thing or two on the sword. Trained under the former Ice Pillar alongside the Blizzard Pillar, but they both branched out after it was "complete", with both of them altering Ice Breathing to suit themselves. He killed the former Lower Moon 2 (Kanae) somehow, and took her hair-clip as a prize, which is what netted him his promotion. Since he became a Pillar in half the time the Blizzard Pillar did, he hates him for it (and his attitude and... everything else). Actually, everyone hates him now (since he's annoying). Spoils his crow, and even gave her the hair-clip. His mark would've appeared on his tongue, and resembles Gluttony's ouroboros tattoo. Paradise is an empty promise, as your loved ones appearing suddenly is but one of the many hallucinations in battle with him.

Blizzard Pillar Soyama Hakuji

Nicknamed "Akaza" among the Pillars. Joined the Corps to secure a good future for his beloved fiancé. Doesn't seem to like using his sword unless needed, and sticks to nichirin-style knuckles, although he's aware that only the sword can kill. His lively stubbornness in all things wins admiration for some and intolerance for others. Refuses to train any tsuguko, for he hates feeling like he's babysitting them. That's not to say he doesn't care for his subordinates, no, quite the opposite, he even let's them call him "brother", but he just doesn't like watching over them for more then a few hours. Blizzard Breathing is simply Ice Breathing, edited to better suit himself. Lives for the thrill of battles, and it was this that caused his promotion to Pillar somewhat quickly. Though he lives for his work because of this, he isn't particularly liked among the younger ones, ironically enough. His crow is pretty old, but it still has an attitude. She hates the Paradise Pillar as much as he does. His mark would've appeared on his arms, amplifying his prison tattoos to resemble snowflake strips. With unrelenting blows, syncing with his training in that Soryu style, opponents are staggered, under a blizzard, almost.

Hatred Pillar Hantengu Shiko (anyone who's played Persona Q understands this concept of such a basic name for someone)

It's a tossup as to whether or not the others actually know his given name. Joined the Corps hoping to exact revenge on the Demons that attacked him and left himself disfigured. Now, he resembles some of the Demons he so despises, gaining a swollen look on the top of his face, and paired with horns and cat eyes (think of Iguro's, but inlaid with red-green-blue-yellow-purple). Prone to violent mood swings that always originate with his nerves. Trains several tsuguko, and their hallmark is wooden masks that bears the face of a Demon, just like him (his mask resembles his canon self's face specifically, tears included), the ones which stick out the most are the "brothers" Sekido, Urogi, Aizetsu, Karaku and Zohakuten (they're actually his adopted sons, too). He's constantly unnerved by pretty much everything, apart from his best friend the Fish Pillar, at times... Very polarizing among everyone due to his uh... mood swings, but this is ironically the fuel for his fighting style, which IS liked (it's the *Fire Breathing Spawn*). His crow is just as jittery as his owner. It's a miracle they haven't dropped from a stroke. His mark appeared on his neck, and covered it whole with the Chinese character for "calamity". Hatred for the enemy is all that's the fuel for the eponymous technique, and deals with the bitter lash with emotions.

Fish Pillar Mizumura Managi

Nicknamed "Gyokko" among the Pillars. Joined the Corps in an attempt to find a better "voice" for his art and inspiration. Probably the most colorful in the whole Corps had it not been for the Paradise Pillar, maybe. Maybe not. Though colorful, he's quite macabre, which is off-putting with his effeminate...ness. Was trained under the former Water Pillar way back when, but got bored with Water Breathing, so he put his own spin on it. Is hoping to train young Kamunue as a tsuguko, but it'll be awhile before he actually grows a pair and doesn't get scared of his mask. Probably the most extroverted of the Pillars, but that doesn't mean nicest. Probably the only one who the Hatred Pillar regularly speaks to, and they seem to be quite affectionate towards each other, but... His crow is annoyed by his flash and ego, and his attitude is the only thing to break her stoicism regularly. His Mark appears on his upper lip, as a long, wispy mustache (like those fish molesting harassing Kotetsu), plus some disconnected extensions resembling needles. His technique utilizes the macabre, yet beautiful ocean to it's fullest, and some say you can see the Sanzu river (or Cthulhu-) when he fights.

Music Pillar Otokawa Kaguya

Nicknamed "Nakime" among the Pillars. Joined the Corps to hide from the police from her killing her husband. Considered to be the babysitter of Shikeishū-sama's (Muzan's, that word refers to those on death row, so he's a head criminal in a sense) children. Goth and silent, she is often shown playing a simple tune on her prized biwa, which some say it's to ignore the stupidity of the room, while others say it's just to sound nice. Trained under the former Sound Pillar alongside the current one way back when, and based her current technique off of her own self. Training Kaede Mitarai (Mukago) as her tsuguko, you can tell because the two have the same hair clip. Despite being practically a cryptid in her own right, she enjoys a massive popularity thanks to being actually quite easy-going and nice. The only one the Moon Pillar speaks to regularly while the process isn't akin to shoving a crinkled dollar in a vending machine. Her crow is also spoiled, perhaps even more than the Blizzard Pillar's, so a few of the crows wish they helped her instead. Her Mark would've appeared on her cheeks, and resembles thorny brambles (think: Jesus' crown of thorns). Her technique syncs up with her music, and seems to put the target at ease, before getting swathed with a single hit "from" hell. Even her sword looks like a tuning fork.

Sound Pillar Shirogane Leon

Nicknamed "Kyogai" among the Pillars. Joined the Corps out of gratitude for the previous Sound Pillar raising him after what remained of his family were slaughtered by Demons. Trying to be bad, but fails miserably at it, and is, more often than not, much more caring than most of his fellow Pillars. But he DOES have the potential for nastiness, if his works are insulted somehow. Uninterested in tsuguko, seeing what happened after the disastrous mission on the Flower House. Cares too much for his juniors, and would fight tooth and limb to ensure their safety anywhere. Trained alongside the current Music Pillar, so they seem to get along well. The juniors love him, the other Pillars, not so much. Is shown speaking to the Fish, Paradise, and Blizzard Pillar the most. His crow is attracted to his demonic visage, and their attitude bounces off his so well. His Mark would've appeared on his chest, and formed an ornate X shape across it. His technique focuses on the cultural aspects of sound, and delves deep into spoken words and phrases that may be carved into the target, or the landscape.

Spider Pillar Ayaki Rui

Joined the Corps on the recommendation of his adoptive father, a former-once removed Flame-turned-Spider user. A young and talented one, he is the youngest pillar. Stoic, reserved, and something of a control freak, he still has a heart. Obeys the Corp rules to the letter, and becomes annoyed when others don't, but if Shikeishū-sama has a final verdict in things, he'll ignore it. Training his adoptive siblings, Setsuji and Akemi, as his tsuguko, but it looks weird since a 14 yr is training two 16 year olds. A Pillar (and Slayer) for the least amount of time, he's often shown concern because he's so young and frail-looking. His preferred weapon is an odd one: a reel of nichirin wiring made to order, hanging somewhere hidden on his waist. Liked a lot because he's so small and cute, and for his genuine talent. Though the favoritism exhibited on him from the Master is a sore point. His crow had practice a bit to lower its voice by a bit since his owner has strong hearing, and hates loud noises. His Mark appeared on his face, forming as streaks of haze that lean to his nose or hair. His technique embraces the ugly (youkai-esque) aspect of spiders: sometimes it's clean and elegant, sometimes it's filthy and rugged.

Dream Pillar Tamio Ayumu

Nicknamed "Enmu" among the Pillars. Joined the Corps, as he saw it was his duty to his family and country. Calm, sensible, yet sadistic, and madly devoted to his Master above all else. Wants tsuguko to train a lot, but none interested like him for the fact that he get's off of killing Demons, and because he's perpetually smiling. Had no formal training by a former Slayer, was merely inspired to do so after hearing rumors on it. Flirtatious, and especially protective of those Shikeishū-sama puts value on, like the Spider Pillar, who's annoyed by his... *gestures to everything*. He is quite fond of the Moon, Paradise, and Blizzard Pillars, outside of this. His crow forgets that it works for him, so it's often just out an about, doing its own thing. His Mark appears on his forehead, and resembles minimalistic lavender and spider lilies (lavenders represent faith, the latter represents abandonment). His technique is more subdued, less saccharine than Paradise Breathing, and all the more deceptive since it derived from Mist Breathing. With a fading blow, targets' feel they have something vital other then the neck severed, like nerve endings or blind spots.

Rumble* Pillar Indama Kaigaku

Usually referred to by his demon name of "Susano-o" His demonic status provides controversy even now. Joined the Corps basically out of force, was effectively made a Slayer by the Moon Pillar, and promoted after the death of the Blizzard Pillar (sorry not sorry). Snappy and cowardly, he can fight when push comes to shove, though. Monumentally unpopular, just because of the fact that he's a Demon, and had a long string of dishonorable actions before and after. Despite this, he seems to be fond of the young Poison Pillar and his gang. Has been training under the Moon Pillar up until the retirement of the Sound Pillar. Not allowed to have tsuguko, or even a crow, since his hearing is normally just that good. He fights with confidence in nothing but the sword, and the flashy upgrade with his Blood Demon Arts may be a cover-up for the fact that he hasn't learned the old breathing art's first style.

Poison Pillar Shabana Katsuya

Nicknamed "Gyutaro" among the Pillars. Joined the Corps in the vain (in his mind) hopes that his beloved sister can become human again. Cryptic and harsh, whiny (in tone) and cruel, he doesn't lay off the insults to anyone, friends, family, or superiors. "Training" the young Ume as a "tsuguko" (honestly it's left ambiguous as to if she even is), but there's something off about her... Was decently respected among the Corps, but after the botched raid on Mt. Natagumo, it plummeted. Still, despite his nastiness to the upper ranks especially, he seems to deeply trust the Paradise and Blizzard Pillars. His crow is just as abrasive as he is, and had been slated for being swapped out for pecking a few Slayers in the eye a few times, but I'm sure he'll be fine... Actually, he couldn't cut off a Demon's neck for the longest time due to extended malnutrition. The first time he did was in the battle against Upper Moon Six duo Amanozako (Nezuko) and Kagatsuchi (Tanjiro), which coincides with his Mark giving form, AND finally recalling, learning and initially using the holy Sun Breathing, which he heavily struggled to use due to his weak body. Said Mark amplifies his facial rashes to demonic levels.

[crownshattered-arch]

|| In nearly all threads, by default, I write Nezuko the normal setting of demon slayer. This isn't an AU where everyone is swapped around. Only she and Tanjiro are swapped. However, in the event that I'm writing with another swapped muse (or I'm using one of my reversed verses) I will default to my reverse AU that I share with my sisters. This can be adjusted based on the interaction, but here are some of the key people so you know what I'm talking about!!

Nezuko: You know her. She's the exact same as my Nezuko, swapped with Tanjiro and stuff. Nothing else to say about that.

Kaigaku: Swapped with Zenitsu. A very aggressive boy who wants to do everything on his own to grow stronger. However, he's forced to learn to rely on others, as well as care about others. He starts to see the main four as his family. Although he runs from his past, he's trying to make his future brighter. (This may not be in any threads but) over time, he falls in love with Nezuko.

Aoi: Swapped with Inosuke. A very rowdy girl who keeps her face hidden underneath a boar mask. Unbeknownst to her, her older sister Kanae was killed long ago by a butterfly demon who she befriended. Aoi survived and grew up in the forest among the boars. She sees Nezuko as her sister and Kaigaku has a bother (no, he's her brother figure and they both know it).

Tanjiro: Pretty much the same as usual when it comes to my Nezuko. Just a baby demon boy~

Douma: Swapped with Shinobu. He converted the "temple" he grew up in into a medical center for demon slayers, which he runs whenever he isn't busy with a mission. He has five sons that he adopted with his wife before she died, one of them being her biological son, Inosuke. Although he smiles often, he is constantly filled with rage for what happened to his beloved.

Enmu: Swapped with Kanao. He's one of the boys adopted by Douma and Kotoha. It was the slayer's wife that urged him to save the broken child, and it was still Kotoha that got him to open up. He misses Kotoha dearly. He sees Inosuke as a brother and Douma as a father, but he still always calls him "Sir". He is Douma's tsuguko. He has a crush on Nezuko, who unfortunately only sees him as a friend.

Managi: (Gyokko) Swapped with Giyu (mostly). He's the first demon slayer Nezuko ever met, and he's the one who sent her to her teacher.

Hakuji: Swapped with Rengoku (and Giyu in some cases). Hakuji met Nezuko after she fought Lower Five, and after seeing her and Tanjiro's soul with his special sight, he realized they were different and fought Douma back to allow them to leave. He supported the siblings, with Managi, when they stood before the Hashira and vowed to die if Tanjiro kills a human being. He became an older brother figure for all three of the main characters during the train arc (taught Nezuko new ways to kick, helped Kaigaku learn how to use his own sight better, Aoi just thinks he's AWESOME) but unfortunately did not survive the night.

Ume and Gyutaro: Swapped with Tengen and his wives, for the most part. You can get a good understanding of their role if you look at their hashira verse page. They both share the position of Nature Hashira. While Ume infiltrated the entertainment district, Gyutaro enlisted Nezuko, Kaigaku, and Aoi to help him find his sister. Together, they all fought against the duo Upper Six (Mitsuri and Iguro). They survived the battle, but Ume lost her arm and Gyutaro lost his eye. They both were terribly poisoned, so they couldn't continue their duties and have since retired.

If you have any questions, or want to know the identities of any characters not listed here (bc there are a LOT I didn't mention), just ask me!! I am ALWAYS happy to talk about this AU XDD

.............i hope i didnt get anything wrong......my sisters would KILL me XDD
