I can't stand it anymore. The constant comparison, the never-ending feeling of being second best. It's like a weight on my shoulders that I can never shake off. Every time I look at Zenitsu, all I see is what I could have been if only things had gone differently.
Jigoro always favored him over me, showering him with praise and attention while barely acknowledging my existence. It burns me up inside to know that no matter how hard I try, I will never be able to surpass Zenitsu in his eyes.
But it's not just about Jigoro's approval - although that alone would be enough to fuel the fire of jealousy within me. It's also about the recognition from our fellow demon slayers. They all look up to Zenitsu as some kind of hero, singing his praises and ignoring the fact that he owes much of his success to luck rather than skill.
And then there are those pathetic girls who fawn over him like he's some kind of prince charming come to save them from their troubles. Do they not see through his cowardly act? Do they not realize that behind that facade lies a weakling who relies on others for protection?
I refuse to play second fiddle any longer. From now on, Kaigaku will make sure everyone knows just how powerful and deserving he truly is. No longer will I allow myself to be overshadowed by someone as undeserving as Zenitsu.
It may take time and effort, but one day soon, everyone will see Kaigaku for who he really is - a force to be reckoned with; a warrior unmatched in strength and determination; an upper moon demon whose power knows no bounds.
Zenitsu may have stolen Jigoro's favoritism once upon a time, but mark my words: it won't last forever. Sooner or later, the truth will come out and when it does...well let’s just say there won’t be anyone left doubting who truly deserves their admiration.
Until then though…all we lesser beings must bear this burden silently…and wait for our moment in the spotlight….
