Songs that sound like Gyutaro singing
Daki songs also featured
(sorry for this unprompted showcase and unintentional rant/essay but it's midnight I needed to get this off my chest bc it's been on my mind for a year and I need to have other people know)
Cw: a lot of these songs contain lyrics describing toxic relationships and death/suicide. If these topics trigger you, then please don't listen to them. I'll apply a warning to every song mentioned just in case
So, Gyutaro and Daki are the only characters in care about in Demon Slayer (no joke I skipped season 1 and the first few episodes of season 2 bc I only wanted to see them lol) and I absolutely love their voices oml.
Ryōta Ōsaka is now my favorite voice actor. His rasps and growls hit hard.
So I feel the need to assign playlists to all my favorite characters. And I have this weird thing where I like to imagine the characters singing these songs specifically so I try to find artists who sound similar.
So here are some covers by the YouTuber Chogakusei that I think sound close to Gyutaro (and what I think he'd personally sing in a modern au setting lol).
All of the original songs he is covering are linked in his video descriptions back on YouTube if you ever wanted to check them out.
Also all 3 of these songs have English captions available!
1. Hindrance
Cw: people being deceitful, people being paranoid of each other(?), general animosity and spite towards others, jealousy against other people, mention of children fighting
I could honestly write an entire essay on how the lyrics coincide with Gyutaro's entire life and backstory. It all fits so well with his spitefulness towards the world and how quick he is to resort to violence.
Especially in the beginning when he's mocking this person for being so "good" and seemingly perfect. It just reminds me about how he mocked Tengen and the samurai that tried to kill Ume by burning her.
And the lyrics "Children turning into fighters in an instant" makes me think of how he was essentially forced to resort to violence back when he was a human bc everyone treated him like shit (also him having to be Ume's bodyguard bc she also had to become a sex worker just so they could get food. "Fighters" doesn't always have to mean a physical brawler. It could also refer to someone who's pushing back against the shit hand life gave them via taking whatever opportunity they can)
And when Chogakusei sings "jealousy let's run" my heart just went agh yep that's Gyutaro
2. Neroism
Cw: mentions of a suicide note, person lamenting on how bad life is, person telling others to go die
I'm pretty sure this song is actually about a girl who decides to commit suicide bc of how much her life sucks. But the way Chogakusei sings it just changes the whole vibe into a man so spiteful and hateful towards the world for making his life so terrible, which just matches Gyutaro perfectly
When he sings "Yes, just be sad and die" I'm again reminded of how Gyutaro treats Tengen for being so handsome and wanting him to go die
The growls are just on point with this song oml
(also at the end when he starts the "ahahaha" I imagine it as his head getting cut off and tumbling to the ground like in the anime if this was an animatic :) just to make you feel as sad as me)
3. Bocca della Verità
Cw: mentions of an abusive/toxic relationship, complete hatred towards another person, original music video/lore alludes to a deal with a devil(?), alludes to the abusive person getting killed(?), lyrics mention the singer being dragged into the abyss/possibly hell(Presumably I think???)
I've got no excuse this is just bc he's an angy man.
The screams and growls just fit him, y'know? So does the very harsh "I HATE YOU" mentality
That being said y'all should check out his channel just bc he's an amazing artist and he deserves all the support in the world for his amazing voice!
Now ik I only picked 3 songs for Gyutaro but pretty much any of the songs Chogakusei sang on his channel can be interpreted as gyutaro singing bc he does the good growl voice in basically all of them. I just picked the ones that had lyrics similar to Gyutaro.
But there's still more to talk about my dear friends bc I want to mention Daki as well (don't worry Gyutaro is involved here too and he'll be back in another song lol)
First of all Daki's voice actor (Miyuki Sawashiro) is my second favorite voice actor now bc do you guys know how hard it must be to sound like you're sobbing and whining like a child? I know I would be absolute shit at it and too embarrassed to even try. She's got mad vocal cords and that deserves praise
But I feel like it's harder to find a match with any one singer. It's not as distinct and unique as Gyutaro's but still feels like no one can really replicate it? Idk man
I have two different options currently but I'm biased towards them bc I don't know a lot of Japanese singers that are women so oops on my part.
This is also all based on my headcanon that Daki would sing with a raspier voice than compared to how she normally talks as a sort of allude to her brother
(also bc a while back my choir teacher taught us that the human vocal cords like to mimic other people's vocal cords when they sing/talk. That's why your throat hurts after listening to screamo/metal music all day. Your vocal cords are vibrating to try and mimic the artist who is straight up screeching into the mic - except their throat is trained to do that and yours isn't. My teacher called it vocal mimicry but when I try looking it up, all google shows is of parrots mimicking human speech so maybe this is all made up crap ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But anyway I feel like growing up around someone with a raspy voice you'd start picking up on it yourself)
Here's some links of Daki talking if y'all want a refresher on her voice:
-- https://youtu.be/2EuJL1m8dEA
-- https://youtu.be/CKzCrkCoOsE
-- https://youtu.be/HlIhNxSqp_c
(just watch like the first 3 minutes)
-- https://youtu.be/eXlCav0N4QY
(just watch like the first 3 minutes)
Daki can clearly be high pitched but also can get pretty low. There's also a little squeakiness in her speech, like maybe little hitches/voice cracks but it's not overpowering. What I hear most of tho (correct me if I'm wrong lol, my hearing could be off) is that she has a certain cadence to her voice, like there's a resonance in the back of her throat that makes her almost kinda echoy??? Or at least a layered voice?? Am I making any sense here????
But either way. I needed to find a singer who can growl, go to both high and low pitches and who has a resonance in their voice.
So my wonderful friends that is why I have chosen our first option as...
Ado 🎉
I feel like this is a generic/expected response when finding female singers who can growl but I still think it can work.
I'm also mostly focusing on the songs she sang before her debut (as in before the release of Ussewa)
I'll be staying whether these songs are covers or not under their titles.
And Tokyo Cannibalism is the only Ado song on this list with English captions. The rest don't but you can suck it up and appreciate good music without knowing the words. I know you've done it before.
1. Brain Revolution Girl
Cover song. Original from Maretu
Cw: picture alludes to self harm, lyrics possibly allude to suicide, sexual abuse or online bullying( the meaning is up for interpretation)
Like just from listening to the first 1:30 of the song and I can already imagine Daki screaming into the mic. Especially with the voice crack when Ado screams "ah!" at 1:11
2. Tokyo Cannibalism
Collab with YouTuber biz
Cw: visuals of people being eaten, visuals of giant bugs, visuals of people being eaten by said giant bugs, general gore with blood and body mutilation
This one leans more into that high pitched, whiney sort of voice Daki has. Y'know, when she has a meltdown in front of Tengen and when everyone compares her to a boiling teapot? Yeah that.
Also the song's premise kinda goes along with her being a demon and eating people
3. Bocca della Verità
Cover song. Original by Hiiragi kirai
Cw: mentions of an abusive/toxic relationship, complete hatred towards another person, music video/lore alludes to a deal with a devil(?), alludes to the abusive person getting killed(?), lyrics mention the singer being dragged into the abyss/possibly hell(Presumably I think???)
:)
Also the best part about imagining Daki as Ado and Gyutaro as Chogakusei means that their Collab video is the perfect song to imagine the siblings singing together!!
4. Eraser Girl
Cover song. Original by Maretu
Cw: (I genuinely don't know bc I can't figure this song out so I'm looking online for the meaning) life generally sucking for two people and treating them like crap(?), maybe those two people kill themselves in the end (??), maybe those two people are girls and are gay for each other but society is just a bunch of homophobes(???)
Ok so maybe not a perfect song for the siblings lyrical wise, but vocally speaking it still works (at least in my book lol)
That's all I have from Ado. Once again show your support over on YouTube by watching more of what interests you bc she's an amazing artist.
Now I'm about to fall asleep (it's 1:40 in the morning as I write this sentence) so I'll quickly go by my second option for Daki which is...
Raon 🎉
She was one of the first Japanese artists I listened to so I'm definitely biased here. But her voice is just so good like she can do so many cool pitches it's crazy.
For here I'll be showing the ones where she has a sort of raspy-growl in her voice.
This is what I imagine Daki's voice would be in a modern au if her profession was ever singing - a slight whisper of something unhinged but still very smooth and alluring.
Most of these picks are focused on the voice aspect, so what the lyrics say aren't really of importance.
And all of these songs have English captions.
All of these songs listed under Raon are covers. The originals will be linked in the description of her YouTube videos.
1. Envy Baby
Cw: abusive/toxic relationship
2. Darling
Cw: abusive/toxic relationship
3. Ameotome (Rain Maiden)
Cw: abusive/toxic relationship
The voice isn't what I imagine exactly, but I feel like the lyrics are something Daki would actually sing.
So that's all I have in terms of songs.
Remember to show support for all 3 creators bc they are so talented and deserve the attention.
It is now 2:37 on the morning, so I'm gonna go pass out. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk. Until next time my friends :)
Hi I'm looking for a demon slayer fic where Y/N eats Muzan and becomes the new demon king and trys to befriend the uppermoons. They save Rui and writes letters to Tanjiro and Nezuko and leaves them at their old house to attempt to make up what muzan did. They went to a festival with Daki, Nakime and Rui. They experiment with their resistance to the sun.
Sorry that's all the details I can seem to remember right now. Please help me find this fic, it was on Ao3 if that helps.
Hey I'm looking for a fix where y/n is the head of an abandoned/extinct clan and she's very frail and sickly and one night she run into Akaza and somehow befriends him? And basically he keeps coming round for tea almost every night. And like one night Kagaya Ubuyashiki has a vision of muzan starting at her through her window.
Thats all I can remember right now, please help me find this fic 🙏
The history book on the shelf is always repeating itself
They both have a very; let's have another go, yeah? maybe we'll be better at this, this go-round, vibe that they bring to the workplace that I really appreciate.
How Fumiko gaining the Uppermoons' interests at first.
Her relationship with other demons aside from the top three :
⚠️TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️
In the heian period, Fumiko was married off by her parents for political reasons and her husband was an abusive man. He also hold a strong belief that baby girl is a taboo so when Fumiko gave birth to her daughter, he killed the baby. Yes, he's cruel. He also killed Fumiko in the end.
Muzan killed him btw.

this woman loves you
you’re not like other men she’s seen
when she saw you in the red light district , she noticed even when other woman were throwing themselves at you , you just ignored them and gave them small smiles
also once saw you stand up for one of the girls when a customer was yelling at her
daki believes she deserves it , but it’s the thought that counts right ?
she came up to you and told you to sit with her
from then on you guys hit it off
she asked you out , you said yes
everyone’s happy
forehead kisses ? forehead kisses
she lives for affection , can be quite clingy when it comes to said action
sometimes she’ll massage your scalp , which is pure heaven
nuzzles her nose against you a lot , specially when you first started dating
protective over you
once her brother was throwing you questions , giving you no time to answer any of them
she hugged you from behind and proceeded to stick her tongue out and say “ stop asking him questions . I love him and that’s all that matters , mind your damn business ”
least to say her brother is suspicious of you
will bring you food in the morning before you wake up
she’s pretty wealthy , and so she can buy you practically anything you want
whenever she kisses you on the lips , it’s always just a quick peck , also smooches your cheeks to give you a surprise
whispers sweet nothings when you guys are alone

a scenario for Daki/ume in Morden AU with male reader?
MODERN AU
CHARACTERS — UME (HUMAN DAKI)
READER — MALE
GENRE — FLUFF
CW — NONE
Ume slowly sat up in her bed, rubbing her eyes in the process . The lack of warmth next to her woke her from her slumber. She huffed in frustration before throwing the covers off of her figure, slithering out of bed.
When walking down the stairs she freezed in her tracks, the aroma wafting in the air all too similar. Squealing like an excited school girl, she jumped down the stairs before rushing towards the kitchen, eyes practically sparkling.
(Y/n) chuckled at her reaction, before embracing her into a quick hug, sneaking a couple of pecks on her cheeks. “You made me pancakes, I am eternally grateful!” Ume cheered, sitting down on the chair that was her usual spot.
“You deserve it. Especially after you passed your test on biology.” (y/n) grinned, his hand sneaking towards his girlfriends’ unnocupaid hand, intertwining their fingers together.
Ume simply nodded in affirmation, too busy digging into the pancakes, her cheeks stuffed like a hamster stuffing food in its pouches. (Y/n) sighed, a small smile gracing his features.
He’s really grateful to have a girlfriend as beautiful and hard-working as Ume.

¿What would Daki be like as a mother, as a human and a demon ?
CHARACTERS — DAKI, UME (HUMAN DAKI)
READER — NOT A READER INSERT
GENRE — FLUFF
CW — PREGNANCY, MENTIONS OF CHILDREN
DAKI —
I feel like she’d not rlly be sure how to react to getting pregnant
Like, she’s ask Muzan if it was even possible for a demon to be impregnated
He said that there was a 0.01% chance of it happening
She would be an emotional mess tbh during pregnancy
Luckily her brother tried his best to comfort her
When it comes to caring for the child... she’s kinda rusty
Doesn’t know what the fuck to do, she’s lost
Asks the upper moons for help, which they hesitantly agreed to, mainly due to gyuutaro threatening them to do so-
She may not be the best when it comes to the child’s needs, but I feel like she’d enjoy playing with her child???
Playing peek a boo and all the other stereotypical games
Won’t hesitate to kill / harm anyone willing to hurt her child ( wether they’re human or demon, she doesn’t care )
Gets a lot of help with raising her child and giving them the right food, mainly from Muzan because he’s an old fart ( sorry not sorry )
UME (HUMAN DAKI) —
surprisingly, she’s a good mother
she may lose lots of sleep because of the crying child, but she still loves them to bits
a bit rusty when it comes to certain things, asks some women for advice
her brother helps her out a lot, even though he is busy most times due to his job
he expected the child to cry when seeing him, only for the complete opposite to happen
the little baby laughed and smiled, his heart low-key went doki doki
she likes carrying her baby around and going on walks with it, sometimes gyu will join them
kisses her baby on it’s little head a lot, usually leads to her kissing their entire body
overall, she adores her baby to bits
AUTHORS NOTE
apologies if daki is ooc in this, still trying to grasp her character somewhat
feel free to give me some constructive criticism!!! it’ll help me improve my writing skills
