something i drew year ago

so i’ve been seeing a lot of breathswap lately and i decided to try my hand at my own! this is largely just based off of my headcanon that rengoku would be the loving brother zenitsu never got

photo id, image transcription (for my handwriting), and a little ramble under the cut!

[ID: Rengoku and Zenitsu standing together, Zenitsu being much shorter than Rengoku. Rengoku looks as usual and is smiling, while Zenitsu is frowning. Zen’s hair now gradients from yellow to orange to red, and he wears a light yellow cape with orange, spikey flames. The next picture is filled with scribbles and has sketches of zenitsu, now with long hair in a ponytail and standing with his cape fully shown. He is pouting or upset in most doodles, though one he is comically on fire. END ID]

Ideas: 

- unsure of himself + rengoku’s legacy

- but supported by rengoku and gaining confidence!

- rule #1 of rengoku apprenticeship: respect women

- stuck by lightning and burst into flames

- aniki. (zenitsu calls rengoku aniki and rengoku has a bit of a soft spot for it. naturally zenitsu exploits this as much as possible)

basically my breathswap barely counts as a breathswap but my main idea is that zenitsu- the whole thing with kaigaku and his gramps happened much earlier in his training, so rengoku took him in and continued teaching him with breath of fire! he’s unsure of himself but rengoku helps him with his confidence, except now instead of being worried he’ll die (for the most part), he’s more worried about ruining rengoku’s image and failing him.

i have more thoughts for other characters but i just HAD to draw zen u know?

Day 03: Breathswap | Roleswap (August 11th)

''Please! Anything but him! Take anything but my little brother, he's all I've got!'' the boy screamed as he bowed his head in the snow begging the man with blank semblant in front of him.

Kaigaku felt at disadvantage, all he had was an axe, and the swordsman who tried to kill Zenitsu was fast, he moved too quickly for Kaigaku's eyes to catch him. And really, throwing his axe at the man, as a last ditch effort to win was stupid, risky, and most definitely useless, since he missed the mark. But when he awoke and Zenitsu was still beside him, wide awake and crying his eyes out as the blond clung to Kaigaku's shirt, he was so relieved he almost didn't register the man's last words to him.

The training was a nightmare from hell. He almost copied Zenitsu's antics and started screaming at the top of his lungs that he was gonna die at any given second. But he was the eldest, and he would persevere. It was fitting that Kaigaku's eyes were blue, an ocean hue, like the tides that seemengly emerged from his blade as he swung it towards the grotesque demon in front of him. He lost the mask Urokodaki-san had given him, it'd been split in half, but all he could think of at the moment was surviving. And so that's what he did. He survived the final selection.

As he walked back, he sensed the crow that had been given to him flying close by. His legs felt heavy, every limb felt as if it were about to fall off from his body and he would collapse in the middle of the road anytime, still, he persevered as Urokodaki's house was right in front of him, and out of it came Zenitsu, crybaby Zenitsu with his choppy hair that grew out in the two years he slept, yellow haori falling off one shoulder, and bamboo piece firm over his mouth, rushing to greet him as the eldest's legs finally gave in. He held his little brother tight, and Urokodaki-san joined them, the man was relieved with his safe return.

That night, he shared the futon with his brother, despite the exhaustion he stayed awake tangling his fingers on spilled gold. Kaigaku brought Zenitsu closer to him, with as much strength as his arms allowed him –which wasn't that much–.

''I will turn you back into a human. I promise'' he mumbled quietly, and kissed the crown of the youngest head.

nezuko is insect breathing style user 

tanjirou flower breathing

I redesigned Kazumi and I like this version a lot more! 

[hazydr3amer]

I love all these breath swaps AUs, but I also love when people make up their own breath styles! So I did both. This is specially made for @ciralili and @redyarns who inspired me to make this. I’ll included the forms for the style down below along with some information on this new Zenitsu (I thought about this waaaay too much):

Name: Kazumi (Written as Peace and Beauty) He, just like Kanao was able to chose his own last name.

Quick Background: He and Kanao came from the same town. Zentisu tried to save up enough money so he, Kanao, and his current ‘girlfriend’ could leave town and start over. But, he gets bamboozled by his girlfriend. Luckily he and Kanao are adopted by the Kocho Siblings. 

Additional Info: Couldn’t master Flower or Insect breathing so he created a new style. He deeply loves his siblings and is very protective of them & is always in the company of one of them (or w/ the other butterfly girls) He still has really good hearing but he has selective hearing and always assumes that people are thinking ill of him and is distrust of anyone who isn’t family. His nickname in the estate is ‘The Distant Prince’ as everyone loves him and his beauty but he’s convinced they all hate him. (Like the anime handa kun)

BREATH OF BEAUTY:

Branched off from the breath of flower, water, and love. The style is characterized by fluid movements, flexibility & speed. Requires someone with good coordination and quick movements. Nichirin blade emits glowing plum blossoms and rose petals.

1st Form ‘Charming Flourish’: User twirls the sword once bringing it under their armpit before turning their body to let the sword continue its movement then twirling around with a sweeping circular slash. (This move can easily be modified ex not having the sweeping motion at the end, or simply repeating the movement of the flourish for longer)  

2nd Form ‘Striking Beauty’: User draws their sword and cuts diagonally from the left shoulder to the right hip before moving forwards and slashing from the right shoulder to the left hip; this is repeated quickly two times followed up by thrusting the sword into their opponent (preferably in their chest/heart area) this motion is carried out much like a ballet arabesque 

3rd Form ‘Alluring Magentism’: User dashes forward then ballet leaps towards their opponent while attacking with a series of slashes at their neck area.

4th Form ‘Lovely Sublime’: User will menege towards their opponent with their sword extended out and swiftly decapitated them before returning to their starting position. (Mercy Kill)

5th Form ‘Radiant Angel’: User will leap into the air towards their opponent and slash down diagonally before swiftly decapitating them.
