I cope with the rush of finally having posted this fanfic by making bad memes but the important part is having fun I guess.

At last, after months and years of just visualising in my mind how Yuzu would look like, I asked for a commission to this incredible artist who captured all the details of my imagination and then brought to life the Rabbit Hashira.

She named her nichirin blade Emono no Kamitsuki - Prey's Bite.

I'm deeply grateful beyond words. Thank you 💚🐇🍵

Yuzu is downright lovely and cheeky I LOVE HER.

Now a small piece from the latest Radiance chapter "The siblings across the sky":

«Tanjiro kept glancing at her from the corner of his eye as he finally allowed himself to eat, the odd and currently non-threatening companionship spurring his stomach to ease. Taking in detail upon detail of this eerie warrior, as striking as the first time. 

The white rabbit mask covered most of her face.

Long black-tipped silver hair braided in elaborate fashion with red silk ribbons and wisteria flowers.

The pristine dark uniform fit to her body like an armour, severe and kept in perfect condition to conceal any weak points.

Draped like the mantle of a folktale, she wore a mesmerising silver-gray haori, beautifully embroidered with green wind-swept grass fields and silver-white rabbits apparently busy in a coordinated dance. And tabi socks decorated with dainty tiny leaves of silver and green threads. 

She had rested a small backpack at her feet, sturdy and well worn, which to his sensitive nose seemed more like she carried a small carefully-selected tea shop around - some blends he recognized, while others smelled wonderfully new and exotic. How did she find the time to brew while on the grueling duties of slaying remained a mystery.

“So, tell me Tanjiro, how have been your first days hunting demons?”»

Absolutely in love with this sketch by the lovely @aisheux - they are bringing my Yuzu to life and making her justice 🐇💚🍵

character who is sun-coded but not in the traditional ray-of-sunshine way. character who is sun-coded in the sense that they burn hot and bright and powerful, that they're a raging fury of fire and passion, and that maybe, just maybe, they are destroying themselves as they do so.

[binabees]

character who is moon-coded but not in the moody grumpy way. character who is moon-coded in the way they shine brightly in darkness guiding others. a character that is moon-coded with all their darker sides no one else can see. that they are lonely and lovely. doomed to watch on as the the person who gives them their light slowly destroys themselves taking the light with them.

this juxtaposition works so well for "Radiance" and sun/moon siblings dynamic I am writing about

Rabbit Hashira or folklore spirit?

Wish I had better drawing abilities but everything is better than AI at least lol.

Mostly her haori is my crux - best description is in chapter 3 of Radiance, from Tanjiro's pov as he takes in the details of this eerie visitor:

"The white rabbit mask covered most of her face. Long black-tipped silver hair braided back in elaborate fashion with red silk ribbons and wisteria flowers. The pristine dark uniform fit to her body like an armour, severe and kept in perfect condition to conceal any weak points. The mesmerising silver-gray haori draped like the mantle of a woodland spirit, beautifully embroidered with green wind-swept grass fields and silver-white rabbits apparently busy in a coordinated dance".

One day I will get a good depiction that gives her justice, I promise.
