Chapter 35

Scattered (りり) is the thirty-fifth chapter of Koyoharu Gotōge's Kimetsu no Yaiba.

Summary
The chapter begins with Tanjiro's assault against the Father Spider Demon, he uses the Water Breathing: Second Form - Water Wheel and manages to penetrate through the demon's arm but fails to slice it off. The Father Demon tries to swing at Tanjiro but is intercepted by Inosuke, who also fails to cut his limbs off.

The Father Demon becomes enraged and throughs the two boys back then proceeds to charge at them. He targets Tanjiro and furiously demands that they stay away from his family, but before he can accurately attack him, Inosuke sneaks up from behind and tries to kill him. While the Father Demon changes targets, Tanjiro uses the Water Breathing: Second Form Improved - Lateral Water Wheel to try to cut a nearby tree to fall on top of the Father Demon.

The Father Demon becomes trapped beneath the tree and is enraged. Tanjiro attempts to eliminate the Father Demon by preforming the Water Breathing: Tenth Form - Constant Flux but before he can do so, the Father Demon picks up the tree and uses it as a bat to send Tanjiro flying into the night. Inosuke comically calls out to "Kentaro" as he is left alone to face the Father Demon, and Tanjiro tells him not to die before he gets back, he also warns Inosuke to be careful since he was facing "one of the twelve kizuki."

Elsewhere on the mountain, Zenitsu can be seen on top of the floating cabin, struggling to breathe. He gazes up to the moon as he uses his final thoughts to apologize to Nezuko. As he accepts his fate, the Insect Hashira flutters on top of the cabin and greets him to ask if he is ok. He gazes at her in confusion, not knowing who she is.

The scene returns back to Tanjiro falling from the sky, as he approaches the ground, he uses the Water Breathing: Second Form - Water Wheel to soften his landing. However when he begins to survey his surroundings, he is horrified to see Rui torturing and mutilating the Daughter Spider Demon's face.

The chapter concludes with Rui aggressively questioning what Tanjiro is looking at as he spindles his threads coated in blood.
