A New Mystery in the Pillar Training Arc! Amane-sama's Statement Reveals the Identity of the Swordsmen of the Beginning Breath

Hello everyone! I am KENTA, a Japanese who loves manga. This time, I would like to share with you an article discussing the Pillar Training Arc of the very popular anime “Demon-Slayer”. What is the fierce battle that is about to begin, and what is the startling fact that Amane-sama revealed? Let’s unravel the deep fascination of the story together, as we explore the secrets of the Pillars. By reading this article, we are sure that your love for Demon-Slayer will deepen even further! In this article, we will explain and discuss the details of the Pillar Training Arc as depicted in the original story, the swordsmen of the Breath of Beginning and the swordsmen of the past demon-slayers.

Outline of the Hashira Training Arc

The Hashira-Geiko Arc is nine episodes in the comic between Volumes 15 and 16. It is surprisingly few. However, it is a chapter in which the Onikagitai fighters practice with the pillar so that they can become even stronger for the battle against Muzan, which is in full swing now that Nezuko has been overcome. It will be aired as a one-cour portion in the anime, but it will have that much of an impact on future stories.

By introducing the pillars who have yet to play a prominent role in the Pillar Training Arc, it will be easier for the viewers to feel empathy for each character in the upcoming all-out battles. After the attack on the village of the swordsmith, an emergency meeting of the pillars is held. Kagaya Ubuyashiki’s wife, Amane Ubuyashiki, is attending the meeting on behalf of Kagaya Ubuyashiki, the head of the village, who is unable to attend the meeting due to illness.

Bruise manifestation conditions and the secret of the bruise

Amane-sama begins her talk about birthmarks. Tanjiro Kamado had already developed a birthmark, but he too did not know the details of the conditions for developing birthmarks and was only using his senses to tell us. Tanjiro Kamado had already developed birthmarks. Muichiro, however, was able to describe exactly how the bruise appeared.

According to Muichiro, his heart rate was over 200 and his body temperature was over 39 degrees Celsius when the bruise appeared. Tanjiro also gave a sensory description of how the bruise appeared, but there is no doubt that the increase in heart rate and body temperature had something to do with it.

Swordsmen of the Beginning Breath

Amane-sama continues to talk about the bruises, revealing that all of the Breath of the Beginning Swordsmen had developed bruises similar to the Oni no motifs. The Breath of Beginning is a daily breath used by the swordsman Tsugoku En Ichi during the Warring States period. This breath is one of the breaths of total concentration, and to this day there are only 11 users, including Tsugikoku En’ichi.

Tanjiro is also a user of this breath, which is the true identity of the Hinokami Kagura that was passed down from his ancestors, the Kamon family.

Breathing Traditions and the History of Onikagura

The reason for the breakdown of the tradition of hibi no hibi is that Kibutsuji Muzan wiped out all hibi no hibi users; Muzan encountered swordsmen who used hibi no hibi and felt they were a threat to him, so he tried to eliminate them thoroughly. As a result, knowledge of and users of the sun’s breath gradually dwindled, and today it is almost unknown in the Onikagitai.

However, the technique has been secretly passed down in the form of Hinokami Kagura, a form of Kagura passed down by the Kamakado family, and Tanjiro’s earrings remain as part of this tradition. Yoriichi Tsugikuni left no direct descendants.

How was it? We have explained the new mysteries of the Pillar Training Arc and the startling identities of the swordsmen of the Breath of Beginning.

Hello, I’m KENTA, a manga enthusiast from Japan! Today, we’ll thoroughly explore the unique sensations of each Breathing Style featured in Demon Slayer. From Tanjiro’s kindness to Rengoku’s intensity and Shinobu’s terror, we’ll uncover the new charms visible from the demons’ perspectives. Let’s dive into the deep world of Demon Slayer together! 1. Water Breathing Sensation Water Breathing is a fundamental technique used by the protagonist, Tanjiro. It is particularly popular among users due to its accessibility for beginners and its less flashy attacks compared to other Breathing Styles, resulting in relatively less pain when struck. Hand Demon’s Experience One demon, Hand Demon, described being defeated as “instantaneous.” When Tanjiro used the “Second Form: Water Wheel” to behead him, he felt more of Tanjiro’s kindness than pain. Thus, the sensation of being cut by Water Breathing feels like being gently caught in a soothing rain. 2. Flame Breathing Sensation Flame Breathing is an aggressive technique wielded by the Flame Hashira, Rengoku. Its power is unmatched, and its beauty is acknowledged even by the demons it strikes. Rengoku’s Charm The demons who faced Rengoku were captivated by his strength, expressing sentiments like “he was so cool.” While his Flame Breathing inflicts severe pain, it seems they accept that pain as part of its allure.

Hello! I’m KENTA, a Japanese manga enthusiast. In this article, I’ll be diving deep into the ‘sensation of being cut’ by each Breathing Technique as revealed in the official fanbook of Demon Slayer. We’ll explore how these techniques affect demons from their perspective. Additionally, I’ll share my own thoughts on the sensations caused by Thunder Breathing and Beast Breathing, which were not covered in the fanbook. Make sure to read until the end! Stone Breathing Let’s start with the Stone Breathing used by Gyomei Himejima, one of the strongest Hashira in the Demon Slayer Corps. This breathing technique embodies overwhelming power and weight, fitting for someone of Gyomei’s stature. He uses a spiked flail and an axe instead of a traditional sword, making his presence truly terrifying. Even demons, who are not easily frightened, describe the sensation of being cut by Stone Breathing as ‘utterly terrifying,’ with one demon admitting to wetting themselves out of fear. The overwhelming force of this technique leaves demons feeling crushed and completely overpowered. Flame Breathing Next, let’s discuss the Flame Breathing used by Kyojuro Rengoku. This technique, like its name, is fierce and dazzling, much like the personality of Rengoku himself, who shines like the sun.
