Tanjiro cuts through the backbone, and an explosion occurs throughout the train. 

Tanjiro: Hinokami Kagura... Clear Blue Sky! 

Y/n: He's using sun breathing! 

Enmu's true head is severed from his body. 

Enmu: "Ah... Ahhhh!!" The train begins to derail and explode. 

Tanjiro: "Because of its screams and tremors, the train is turning over! Inosuke, are you... Gah!" 

Tanjiro holds his stomach where he was stabbed. 

Y/n: "Was I not fast enough?!" 

Inosuke: "Ah! Hey, is your belly okay?!" 

Tanjiro: "Y-Yeah! Inosuke, protect the passen --" 

The train shakes violently. 

Tanjiro: "Ah!" 

The train conductor's body begins to fly away. 

Tanjiro: I can't die. If I die, that'll make him a murderer! I can't die! 

Tanjiro begins to fall away from the train. Inosuke and the train conductor fly off. 

Tanjiro: I don't want to let anyone die! 

The train lands hard. Tanjiro lands on the ground. 

Tanjiro: "Gah! Ngh..." 

The train comes to a stop. 

Inosuke: "Ahhh! Woah! Wha... Gah!" 

Inosuke lands on the fleshy parts of the train. 

Inosuke: "Urgh... Ah... Are you okay, Santarou?! Hang in there! I was lucky I could bounce off the demon's flesh! Cool, huh?!" 

Y/n: "Santarou..." 

Y/n snickers a few times before she couldn't hold it in. 

Y/n: "BWHAHAHAHA!" 

 Inosuke helps Tanjiro sit up. 

Inosuke: "Is your belly okay?! Your belly that got stabbed!" 

Tanjiro: "I'm... all right. What about you?" 

Inosuke: "Never felt better! I didn't even catch a cold!" 

Tanjiro: "I won't be able to move... for a while. Help the others, will you? Was anyone injured? What about the engineer near the head?" 

Inosuke: "It's okay if that bastard dies!" 

Tanjiro: "It's not okay..."

Inosuke: "Ngh... He's the one who stabbed you in the belly, remember?! He's got his leg stuck and can't move! His leg's shattered, and he can't walk anymore! Just leave him there, and he'll die!" 

Tanjiro: "Then he's already atoned for his sin. Help him, will you?" 

Y/n: "Tanjiro... That's not how you should do this. You can't save everyone." 

Inosuke: "Ngh..." 

Tanjiro: "Please..." 

Inosuke: "Grr..." 

Inosuke places Tanjiro back down. 

Inosuke: "Hmph! I'll go for you, then! Because I'm the boss! Because my minion asked me to! After I rescue him, I'm going to pluck out all of that guy's hair! Hmph!" 

Y/n: "Do it."

Tanjiro: "That's really not necessary..." It's almost dawn. Get your breathing under control. We have to... save the injured... before it's too late. Nezuko... Zenitsu... Kyōjurō ... I'm sure they're all safe! You have to believe it!
