Tanjiro: *I-I know that face. I've seen him before*

Tanjiro: Why does the doll have six arms?

?: It's arms? Well according to my dad that they had to give him six arms otherwise they couldn't replicate his movements.

?: They said that the doll was modeled after an actual swordsman.

Tanjiro: *I feel like I know him but I don't know why*

Tanjiro: So who exactly is this person?

?: I don't much of the details, But it dates back to the Sengoku era

Tanjiro: S-sengoku era!?!

*The Sengoku era was 300 yrs ago for them*

Tanjiro: It's that old? How is it not broken?

?:Its construction was so superb that we can't hope to achieve that level now. So if it breaks, we can't repair it anymore.

Tanjiro: Really?

?: Yes and It might break soon, That's why I want to preserve it. My dad died suddenly and I don't have any siblings. So I had to be the one to fix it.

?: But I don't have the talent to fix blades or doll.

Tanjiro: So that's why... I see.

Tanjiro: So he is amazing...

!: Of course he is! That boy is a descendant of the sun breath users!

Tanjiro: !?

Crow: He's on a different level from you! *Caw* *Caw*

Tanjiro: Tokito's crow? The sun breath is the original breath.

Tanjiro: So he really is a genius...

Tanjiro: But he doesn't use sun breathing.

Crow: ! SHUT UP! OR I'LL GOUGE YOUR EYES OUT!

*The crow starts to bite tanjiro in the face*

Tanjiro: AGHHH

Tanjiro: Oh! I remember! I saw him in a dream!

Crow: What? You saw him in a dream? Have you been in this village before? Haha! You make me laugh!

Crow: So you know a warrior from the sengoku era? How old are you?

Tanjiro: Sorry, That must be weird right?

?: No! No! Maybe it was a memory that was passed on.

?: We have a saying in my village that appearances are not the only thing that is inherited

?: Living things are pass on their memories too! For example having memories, when you first forged a sword or knowing to do something they've never done before. We call them Inherited Memories.

?: So the memories you saw must have been your ancestors memory!

Crow:Ridiculous! Ridiculous!

Tanjiro: Aww~ You're so sweet! What your name? I'm Tanjiro

Kotetsu: I'm Kotetsu. You really don't have to listen to this bully crow.

~Wood Cracking~

Tanjiro and Kotetsu: !!!

*The mechanical dolls is breaking*

Tanjiro: I-it's armor!

Kotetsu: *Runs away*

Tanjiro: Kotetsu-kun!!

Tanjiro: Kotetsu-kun!!, Kotetsu-kun! I will find you! I have a good sense of smell!
