In a 'kokushibo meets tanjiro fanfiction', one possibility is that Kokushibo senses something different about Tanjiro right away. Maybe it's the fact that Tanjiro has a unique scent or an energy that Kokushibo has never encountered before. Tanjiro, being Tanjiro, would be ready to face Kokushibo head - on, but also be open to communication if there's a chance. The story could explore their different views on the world of demons and slayers, and how they might come to understand each other better through their encounter.
One great 'Muichiro x Reader' fanfiction is 'A Meeting in the Mist'. It beautifully captures Muichiro's somewhat aloof nature while gradually developing a sweet relationship with the reader. The descriptive language used really makes you feel like you're in the Demon Slayer world with them.
For Tanjiro, he could become more understanding of the complex nature of demons. Meeting Kokushibo, a powerful and complex demon, might make him realize that not all demons are simply evil. Kokushibo, on the other hand, could start to have some doubts about his loyalty to Muzan. Tanjiro's tenacity and belief in the good of all might start to chip away at Kokushibo's cold - hearted exterior.
One common theme is the deep emotional bond between them. Given their relationship in the original work, fanfictions often explore how they support and care for each other on a more profound level. Another theme could be adventure, where they go on quests together and their relationship develops during those experiences.
The relationship development between Muichiro and the reader has to be believable. It can't be too rushed. A slow - burn, where they gradually get to know each other, understand each other's quirks, and form a deep connection over time is much more appealing. Also, the setting should be in line with the Demon Slayer universe. Whether it's in the Demon Slayer Corps headquarters or on a mission, the details of the world should be well - described.
Muichiro's death in the manga occurs during a particularly intense confrontation. His injuries accumulate, and he ultimately succumbs despite his valiant efforts.
The battle of Yoriichi vs Kokushibo can be found in the advanced stages of the Demon Slayer manga. It's an intense and highly anticipated confrontation. The build-up and action are both masterfully depicted.
