SHINGIYU

this is Shingiyu but their first designs and you may say Shinobu's outfit is to revealing for her but I don't care because we could've had an flirty Giyu and serious Shinobu 😭 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ About Shinobu Kocho(fun fact) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Early sketches show her with a looser, unpinned hairstyle before she settled on her iconic pulled-back bun with a butterfly ornament. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Age/height/look Age-18yo height-151=4'11½ Look-She did not wear her trademark permanent, gentle smile. Instead, her initial design featured a much more melancholic, blank, and tired expression, looking more like an regular solemn swordsman. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ About Giyu Tomioka(fun fact) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ it actually made him look like a samurai from the ⁠historical Sengoku Era (15th–16th century), rather than the Taisho Era (early 20th century) where Demon Slayer is actually set. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Age/height/look Age-21yo height-176=5'9½ Look-Rather than looking completely empty, stoic, and unbothered, his face had a ⁠subtle, confident smirk, giving him a slightly flirty or arrogant vibe. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HOW THEY ACT ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Shinobu-Rather than acting playfully passive-aggressive or teasing Giyu Tomioka with a cheerful tone, she possessed a cold, distant gaze and a completely unreadable, emotionless expression. Giyu-While the final Giyu is famous for his blank, unbothered, and empty stare, his prototype character possessed a much sharper, intense, and active gaze.
