  Summary

  How did Zenitsu manage to befriend someone so kind and gentle? He doesn't deserve this. He doesn't deserve this at all. He doesn't deserve his kind words, his encouragement, his sympathy, his friendship. Why would he give so much to a pathetic loser like him. It was hard to calm down with those thoughts swirling around in his mind, but he tried so hard. He didn’t want to be a burden anymore.

  Or Agatsuma Zenitsu struggles with his self doubt and hatered, Kamado Tanjiro stays by his side.
