Tanjiro meets Kenshin 3

Kamado Tanjiro

So that's why we're heading to the Swordsmith Village... I need a new sword to continue fighting.

Kamado Tanjiro

Rengoku-san died protecting everyone... and now our escort is gone too. We keep losing people to these demons.

Himura Kenshin

This one understands your pain, that he does. The weight of those we couldn't save stays with us.

Himura Kenshin

Yet you continue forward for your sister's sake, protecting others along the way. That is true strength, that it is.

Kamiya Kaoru

You poor children... you've been through so much.

Kamiya Kaoru

Don't worry, Nezuko-chan. You're safe here with us tonight.

Nezuko Kamado

Mmm... mmm!

Nezuko Kamado

(This woman... she's warm like mother was...)

Kamado Tanjiro

Kenshin-san, how do you do it? How do you keep going after seeing so much death?

Kamado Tanjiro

Sometimes I wonder if we can ever truly win against Muzan and the Upper Ranks...

Himura Kenshin

This one once carried the name Battousai, slaying many during the revolution. The path of atonement is long.

Himura Kenshin

But this one found something worth protecting, that he did. Find what you wish to protect, not just what you wish to defeat.

Kamiya Kaoru

Kenshin wandered for ten years before finding his place. Sometimes the journey itself gives you strength.

Kamiya Kaoru

Tomorrow, we'll help you continue to the Swordsmith Village. No one should face such burdens alone.

Kamado Tanjiro

Thank you... both of you. I thought legendary swordsmen like the Battousai were just stories from history books.

Kamado Tanjiro

But meeting you gives me hope. Maybe someday, demons will be just stories in history books too.
