Demon Slayer x Monster Hunter stories AU Part 3
This is the third part for my Au, this time it's about the demons. All the Demon will be turned into humans, except for Muzan that will be a wyvernian (Like Ena from monster hunter stories 2)
The first one is Kokushibo, i thought that the perfect monster for him would be the Magnamalo, this monster fit him perfectly for his aesthetic
For Douma, I chose the Legiana, I thought this monster suited him well, given both its ice-based abilities and its kinship attack.
For Akaza, I chose the Brachydios; I went for this choice because of the types of attacks the monster uses in combat (particularly in the "Monster Hunter World" version).
As for Hantengu and Gyokko, I decided not to include them for different reasons. In Hantengu's case, his main ability involves splitting into various copies based on his emotions, those copies can merge to form Zohakuten; adapting this mechanic would be complicated, as I would have to choose whether to turn Hantengu or Zohakuten as riders, or turn all the clones into Riders by assigning a different monster to each. Regarding Gyokko, I would have no problems redesigning him in human form, but in this AU i thought that his presence would create narrative complications, given that he and Hantengu were together, (not during fights, just at the same place) in the Swordsmith Village in the anime, so it wouldn't make any sense adding only one demon when there were two in the original story. Due to this choice, i decided to replace both of them with two monsters: the Khezu and the Zinogre.
Now it's Gyutaro's turn, first of all, i decide to make him a rider, him and Ume will be more like troublemakers rather than good and professional rider (i took inspo from the spin off manga Kimetsu Academy, where both are troublemakers). for Gyutaro's monstie, there are a lot of monsters in Monster Hunter with poison abilities, i thought that the perfect monster for him would be the Pukei Pukei. For Daki instead, i decided her to be Ume and she won't have a monstie at first, since she would be a beginner rider and she will be still learning
Kaigaku's turn, i decide to gave to him the Astalos, since his blood demon art is based on thunder element (tbh don't like Kaigaku and it hurts me so much to give to him my favourite monster)
I don't know if this would be the last post, there are other side character missing and i don't know if i would do them. I hope you enjoy this post
