Why Inosuke's descendant ended up alone

My theory:

The four of them (Tanjirou, Nezuko, Zenitsu, Inosuke) lived together in Tanjirou's house, until at some point, some of them decided to start their own family -- have a wife, have kids -- and went their own way.

It must have started with Zenitsu insisted on marrying Nezuko, and despite her scars (caused by Tanjirou) Zenitsu still loved her and wanted to take care of her for life. (Not to mention he's Nezuko's type, too: a Hisha)

Then, Tanjirou also started thinking about having his own family, and Kanao came to mind. It could be because she's his type (a Shiba Inu that's like Lily of the Valley) or he felt guilty for scarring her (the chest stab when he became a demon).

At last, Inosuke started to wonder if family is "a snack" (no, Inosuke, but it gives you good "meals"). Perhaps he met Aoi in Tanjirou's wedding with Kanao, and without using much brain power, decided that he'd marry whomever makes him food all the time. But before he actually got married, Inosuke took a lot of time to figure out how to treat females and sort out his feelings and past hurts.

And because Inosuke was the last one to get married (yes, late bloomer), his children would probably have big year gap from the former two couples'. With time, the gap between their descendants' families (Tanjirou's & Zenitsu's vs. Inosuke's) grew -- not to mention they didn't have social media, plus wars, plus urbanization, etc. -- and the descendants became unaware of each other's existence.

I'd like to think that even though Inosuke's descendant is not directly hanging with Tanjirou's and Zenitsu's, they are bound to be connected in one way or another -- as fate or karma, because their past (ancestral) connections ran deep, intertwining with one another.



Bonus theory: Remember the group photo of the original gang? Inosuke was wearing the wild boar mask -- how the hell can Kamados and Agatsumas tell it's THE Hashibira?? Tch tch
