for some reason tonight i cant stop thinking about different pairings for the infinity castle arc. what if shinobu had met akaza first, where she reminds him of poison-users, but he can't attack her due to her gender and her revenge wouldn't work on a demon who doesn't eat women? what if it was gyomei who met kaigaku, and genya with him seeing just how bad older brother figures could really be? or tanjiro and muichirou as a team meeting kokushibo, reminding him of yoriichi in different aspects of themselves. sanemi getting frustrated over douma's fake personality while giyuu takes no shit because he's so used to shinobu poking at him. iguro and yushiro finding each other first and sort of getting along because each of them worship a girlboss. mitsuri meeting inosuke and his loud personality who doesn't understand social norms, meaning he doesn't care that a woman is strangely strong. kanao meeting zenitsu against like nakime or someone where each of their heightened senses picks up fear from the other, and though they have multiple different reasons, one similar worry is failing those they love.
like. hello? there could've been so many different lifelong relationships if nakime had strum her biwa even slightly differently.

The evolution of Kanao Kocho's dress
When we first see Kanao, she is wearing a special-made Demon Slayer Corps dress uniform, which consists of a pleated, long, purple skirt. Image below.
As we can see, there is barely any skin showing between her legs and the top of her boots. She is nearly completely covered. This symbolizes body image difficulty, which we know she has, as it was explored in several of the light novels, and in the anime. Kanao was starved from a young age, but was led to believe she was overweight, and ugly, which most likely stemmed her request to Shinobu and Aoi for a unique uniform. She had also seen Shinobu burn her first uniform (with the open chest, like Kanroji's) and she had seen Kanae politely hand it back and create her own with Aoi. This was most likely also a part of why Kanao chose to cover up, because she could not make her own decisions, and she had seen two of her sisters, people she looks up to, choose to cover up, which is most likely a contributing factor as to why Kanao wore a special-made uniform, sewn by Aoi Kanzaki.
But, that all changed after meeting Tanjiro. After meeting Tanjiro, she began to feel more confident in her body, and in her choices. After their meeting at the butterfly mansion, in which Tanjiro flipped her coin, and it landed on heads, leading her to make her own choices. After this happened, Kanao felt even more afraid at first, and even refused to go on missions for a couple days afterwards. But, when she began to realize what Tanjiro meant, and the freedom she had now, she began to use that freedom. She began even asking Shinobu for missions, unlike before, where she would be waiting for Shinobu to hand them to her. After she began asking and receiving, and successfully completing more missions, Kanao began to feel more confident and comfortable in her own skin. She then altered her uniform herself, making it with a slightly shorter skirt. This is seen in the first episode of the Swordsmith Village Arc. Picture below.
After Kanao starts to grow more comfortable in her body, she starts to wear the uniform pictured above. But, after Kanao found out about the growing feelings and affection between Genya Shinazugawa and Tanjiro Kamado, Kanao started to feel something she never felt before. In fact, it had been a long time since she felt anything. But Kanao started to feel jealous. Tanjiro and Genya had just been through so much together in the Swordsmith Village, while him and Kanao had just trained together. When Kanao found this out, she asked Aoi to alter her uniform again. Aoi asked what it was for, but Kanao wouldn't say, likely due to embarrassment. After Aoi altered it again, it became even shorter and tighter, emphasizing her bust and showing off her legs. Picture below.
As you can see in the above picture, most of her legs are showing, and the skirt is barely covering her backside. She did this most likely to catch Tanjiro's attention, and to drive Genya away, since Genya hated girls, and showing more of her body would most likely make him uncomfortable.
Everything I've talked about above is a great sign of growth for Kanao Kocho. Stay tuned for more!
