The Demon Slayer franchise has become such a force in the anime world. While it is an archetypal shounen anime at its core, it hasn't neglected pleasing fans of romantic tropes. Among all the couples in the show, the Zenitsu-Nezuko pairing is the one fans are most invested in. But do Nezuko and Zenitsu get together?
Spoiler Warning: This article contains spoilers from the Demon Slayer anime and manga.

Does Nezuko Like Zenitsu?
Before we can determine whether Nezuko and Zenitsu end up together, we have to first identify what feelings the hybrid Demon Nezuko has for the loud crybaby that is Zenitsu.
From the moment he first laid eyes on Nezuko, Zenitsu has never found a need to keep his crush on her a secret, openly professing his love for her every chance he gets.
At first, Nezuko is visibly troubled by such straightforwardness, and as per usual, big brother Tanjiro is there to protect her from his advances.
It's important to note, however, that though Zenitsu is mostly obnoxious, he takes it upon himself to protect and care for Nezuko as much as he can, even swallowing back his fears if it means putting her safety first.
When Nezuko returns to being human, she picks up memories from her time as a Demon, including moments she previously shared with Zenitsu.
She particularly remembers him giving her flowers, which may be a hint that she doesn't think him to be all that bad.

Do Nezuko and Zenitsu Get Together?
Congratulations, ZenNezu fans! Nezuko and Zenitsu do end up together, as hinted by the manga's finale.
However, it's not explicitly shown how the two end up marrying each other and even having kids together.
In the timeskip in the Demon Slayer manga's final chapter, we are introduced to Yoshiteru and Toko Agatsuma, siblings who are highly likely to be Nezuko and Zenitsu's great-grandchildren.
Not only do the two look exactly like our beloved pair, but they also seem to have taken after them attitude-wise.
Nezuko and Zenitsu's relationship is not the smoothest, even among the most complicated of anime couples.
But theirs is proof that all is well that ends well, and their individual growth and maturity helped them reach that point.
