Demon Slayer 2 Season Episode 18 Recap
Demon Slayer season 2 episode 18 delved into Gyutaro and Ume’s human lives, revealing the reason for the resentment and hatred that festered within both siblings, even as demons. They were born to the lowest of classes in the Entertainment District.
Gyutaro had to resort to hunting and eating rodents and insects since his mother saw him as a burden, and tried to kill him many. Things improved for him after Ume’s birth because of her exquisite beauty. He became a particular debt collector, while Ume began working at a brothel.
Ume was burnt alive for stabbing a samurai’s eye with a hairpin. Gyutaro was also fatally wounded when he found her half-alive form and confronted the samurai.
The demon bearing the markings for Upper-Ranknk Six found them and turned them into demons. The demon, called Douma, mused whether the two siblings could become demons and climb up the ranks to become an Upper-Rank Demon like him.
His only regret was that he could not give his sister a better life. He saw his sister, dressed not as Daki but as Ume again. He tried to push her away believing it was his fault that she die such a miserable death. But she refused to let him go, citing his promise never to abandon her.
