Giyuu lay dying on his 25th birthday recounting all the good times he spent with his friends before and after the final battle with the demon king and his servants. Yet, as he takes his last breaths and finally finds solace in the life he's lived, he is mysteriously transported back a whole 8 years in the past. Now faced with a second opportunity to correct his mistakes and save the lives of those he felt indebted to, what would he do? -Certain character ages may be changed for the sake of the story (specific birthdays will be explained later). -Manga spoilers (why would anyone read a fanfic about the end of the series if they didn't finish the story)

21 year old Shinobu, formerly Kocho, now Tomioka, and her sometimes cute, sometimes annoying, and ever weird and confusing husband.

A coming of age story placed after chapter 205 so spoilers ahead. Shinobu sees Giyuu as a little brother, especially since he's five years younger than her. However, for some reason, whenever she looks at him, she's reminded of someone. Someone who she loved very dearly. However, no matter how much he reminds her of someone, she can't fall in love with him. It wouldn't be fair to both him and to that person. On the flip side, Giyuu has been hopelessly in love with Shinobu and has been trying for years to get her to see him as a man rather than a little brother. However, she's always one step ahead of him and he's always chasing after her. Five years is a large gap and it doesn't help that she doesn't want to see him in any other way. Yet he can't help but to reach out to her again and again. In their previous lives neither were able to reach out to each other. However, with a second chance, will they get their ever after?
