Summary
Over a year after Kyojuro’s death, Akaza cannot shake the feeling of having made a mistake by killing him. Curiosity draws him to the Rengoku Estate, where he discovers that Kyojuro has a younger brother. Naturally, he seizes the opportunity to have a different but surely equally skilled person to fight, and kidnaps Senjuro.
Upon discovering that Senjuro is not, in fact, a skilled fighter, hope and boredom compel Akaza to mould the boy into a worthy opponent. Senjuro, hopeful for a chance (however slim it might be) to avenge his brother, agrees to stay.
For the next two years, they form a bond based on tension, skill, growth, promises, and lies. In the end, their goals and futures will be forever changed by having known and cared for one-another.

Summary
Akaza's attempts to forget Rengoku Kyojuro are permanently undermined when he finds that his response to being a stranger in a strange land is to instigate a prison break and agree to escort three girls and Rengoku Senjuro out of a warzone.
And then Kyojuro starts haunting his dreams.
If only he hadn't killed him.Kyojuro finds himself miraculously alive in a foreign hospital, and is forced to look at his life and admit that it has its own value. Talking with Kamado makes it easier.
As does, to Kyojuro's chagrin, the Akaza he can't stop dreaming about.
If only he were real.It's a story about loss and grief, about rediscovered memories and humanity, about unexpected friendship, about finding a reason to live, about claiming your family legacy while escaping its shadow, about strength and all the places you can find it. It’s about how humans are good; how kindness is never wasted. It’s about two Japanese boys finding themselves while lost in a country far from home.
It's about not burning yourself to keep others warm, about letting others help you stand, about a pillar letting himself be only human.
It's about falling in love.
It's about finding your way home.Series

Summary
It is a well-known fact that demons don’t retain their human memories, except under extraordinary circumstances. Humans, too, don’t retain many memories they have of being a demon—a fact Kamado Nezuko copes with as she meets Tomioka Giyuu for the first time.
But like many things in her newly human life, she can’t really untangle how she’s meeting a man for the first time when he’s already saved her multiple times. And he’s just one of the scraps of memory that she is trying to weave together to make back up a life that is a coherent whole.
