Branching Paths (archiveofourown.org)/Branching Paths (Fanfiction.net) is a Alternate Universe retelling of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.The point of divergence is Tomioka Giyu seemingly killing Nezuko, only for her to be taken under the wing of Kibutsuji Muzan. His only family gone, Kamado Tanjirou has nothing left to live for, until he is approached by the spirit of Tsugikuni Yoriichi, who teaches him the art of Demon Slaying. | |

Notably, Kanao is able to snap Tanjirou out of his Heroic BSoD leading to him hugging her for comfort during a moment of vulnerability. Kanao starts experiencing feelings that she never even knew of afterwards. | |

The Heart | |
| Branching Paths (Fanfic) / int_1badfb3a | comment |
Kanao, the only female in the group, and her arc about rediscovering her emotions also makes her The Heart of the group. Due to her heightened eyesight, she represents the sense of sight. | |

Adaptation Expansion: The Lower Moons who get decimated by Muzan in the original story get to live to fight another day in this one. So far though, only Kamanue, Lower Moon Six, has been given his time at the spotlight. | |

Kick the Dog: Nezuko/Chihime’s first action upon making her presence known to the Five Senses in the Natagumo Mountain arc is to kill the downed Demon Slayers who had previously tried to raid the mountain before them right after Tanjiro had saved them from the Spider-Mother’s control. | |

| Branching Paths (Fanfic) / int_723606c4 | comment |
Adaptational Early Appearance: Played with. Shinazugawa Genya first appeared in the Final Selection in the manga, but didn't have a prominent role until the Swordsmith Village arc. Here, he is given spotlight earlier on, even accompanying Tanjirou and co. to Natagumo Mountain. | |

Adaptational Badass | |
| Branching Paths (Fanfic) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Having learned the Breath of the Sun from Tsugikuni Yoriichi, the strongest Demon Slayer who ever lived, Tanjirou is alot more powerful than he was in canon. This applies to Chihime who was formerly Nezuko. In this version of the story, she was taught how to use the breathing techniques of the Demon Slayers by Kokushikubo, who used to be one of them Rui's Lower Moon rank is higher than it was in canon. Until he is defeated by Nezuko in a Blood Battle and reverts to being Lower Moon Five anyway. | |

Five-Man Band | |
| Branching Paths (Fanfic) / int_92587498 | comment |
Five-Man Band- The Five Demon Slayers who survived the Final Selection in Canon are made into an official team during their mission to Natagumo Mountain, acknowledged first by the author and later in the story as the Five Senses, referencing how each of them represents one of the five basic senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch through their unique characteristics. Tanjiro, The Hero of the story as well as the group’s officially appointed leader, representing the sense of smell due to his incredibly keen nose. Inosuke, who plays a strong contrast to the story’s quieter and more composed Tanjiro by being his usual loud and brash self, representing the sense of touch due to having inhumanely sensitive skin. Zenitsu, who is not particularly smart compared to the others but is still often the voice of common sense. He has amazingly good ears, making him the sense of hearing. Genya, physically the strongest of the team as well as easily towering in height over the others, represents the sense of taste due to his demon eating habit. Kanao, the only female in the group, and her arc about rediscovering her emotions also makes her The Heart of the group. Due to her heightened eyesight, she represents the sense of sight. | |

Keep the Reward | |
| Branching Paths (Fanfic) / int_a8476736 | comment |
Keep the Reward: More like promotion, but when Ubayashiki offers to promote Tanjirou to a Pillar after killing the Lower Moon Six, he rejects it on the grounds there are things about the Demon Slayer Corps that he can't agree with. Ubayashiki respects his wishes, but raises his rank regardless. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Branching Paths (Fanfic) / int_d9ffec82 | comment |
Curbstomp Battle: Applicable to Tanjiro’s fight against the Hand Demon in this story. Whereas it was more of a close call in canon, here Tanjiro dominates the demon and cuts it down without a single breath technique, coming out of the fight completely uninjured. Near the end of the Natagumo Mountain Arc, Chihime challenges Rui to advance in the Lower Moons. She wins handily, in part due to her Blood Demon Art having a natural advantage over his. | |
