Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Season 2 Ends with a Heartbreaking Past of Gyutaro and Daki
The latest episode of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba season 2 has left fans feeling emotional as the backstory of Gyutaro and Daki was finally revealed. The anime delves into their horrific past, showing that just like demons, humans also have a heart. It portrays the importance of treating all individuals with kindness as they harbor emotions and feelings.
When Gyutaro and Daki were still human, they suffered many hardships and were mostly mistreated. Gyutaro, in particular, was born into poverty and lived a life that was never expected of him. His mother even attempted to end his life several times while he was still in her womb. He was treated as a curse and shunned by everyone who came across him, receiving insults and stones instead of kindness. To survive, Gyutaro had to resort to eating any animal he could catch, such as snakes and rats. He used only his sickle as a weapon to protect himself.
Gyutaro only found a purpose and a reason to live when his beautiful sister was born. He was proud to have such an adorable little sister and worked hard to provide for her. Unfortunately, he made a mistake that would change their lives forever. Gyutaro became careless and angered his samurai boss, who took out his frustration on Daki, his little sister, and burned her alive. Enraged, Gyutaro killed the samurai in a fit of rage but also left him severely injured.
With nowhere to go and no one to turn to, Gyutaro and Daki were forced to wander, and no one offered them help or assistance. The only creature that offered them that was Doma, the second-ranked Upper Moon Demon. In exchange, he asked Gyutaro to become a demon so that he and his sister could have a chance at life.
For Gyutaro, his sister was the only thing that mattered, and he agreed to become a demon in exchange for the chance to live with her. In his case, being a demon was a reaction to the horrible treatment he received as a human.
The story of Gyutaro and Daki teaches us that deep down inside, humans have a dark side that can make them do cruel things. However, it also shows us that we must treat others as we would like to be treated and not look down on those who are different from us. Even the weakest among us can become powerful and inflict pain. Demonstrating kindness and empathy can prevent such atrocities from happening.
The conclusion of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba season 2 has been a touching and emotional journey for fans. Not only is it a gripping story but it also teaches an important lesson that transcends anime.
