00:00Did you know that Rengoku's father lived with the weight of his son's death crushing him every
00:04single day? The moment Rengoku's mother passed, something in Shinjiro broke. He wasn't just
00:08grieving, he shut himself off from his kids completely. But Kyojuro, he never resented it.
00:12He picked up books, trained alone, smiled through the silence, and grew into a Hashira the entire
00:17core respected. Still, Shinjiro couldn't shake the thought. If he had trained his son himself,
00:22maybe, just maybe, things would have gone differently against Akaza. We all know deep
00:26down that Akaza had the upper hand regardless, and Rengoku was walking toward fate that day.
00:30But grief doesn't care for logic, so when Tanjiro came knocking after the tragedy,
00:34Shinjiro lashed out. Not because Tanjiro did anything wrong, but because he reminded him
00:39of what could have been sun breathing, the strongest form, a style he abandoned. And that shame,
00:43it boiled over into blame. But the truth? Shinjiro wasn't angry at Tanjiro. He was
00:48mourning the sun he never got to say sorry to.
