I haven't play-tested it yet, so I can't be sure it will work perfectly, but I based most of the abilities off of other subclasses and many of them are just exactly the same. It seems like it would be a fun alternative to using a Kensei Monk.
What do you guys think about this idea? I am sure you could do a fun Demon Slayer campaign with the standard subclasses, too. Inosuke would be great as a Barbarian. I think a Battle Master fighter or Samurai would be fine for a lot of characters, too. I really wanted to have those ki points available, though. My biggest problem though was that the martial arts dice and the ki points scale so differently than the Battle Master's Superiority dice that I couldn't really do a bunch of maneuvers with them.

I wanted to make this Demon Slayer subclass for a while, so I decided to make a video explaining what I was going for, check it out!
Here's a link to my "Way of Zen Breathing" Monk Subclass here on D&D Beyond: https://www.dndbeyond.com/subclasses/963937-way-of-zen-breathing
