Let’s look together at why the San-yashiki family hid information about demons on the pillars and what kind of drama was behind it! By reading this article, you will discover the truth behind the story. Dear readers, let’s embark on this thought-provoking journey together with excitement!
The Mission and Curse of the Sanayashiki Family
First, let’s review the Sanayashiki family. The San’yashiki family is the family that oversees the Onimusubi Corps, and their long-held desire is to defeat the Onimusubi Tsuji Musho. This family is very sickly and carries a curse that shortens their lives. The cause of this curse comes from the fact that Onimai Tsuji Mushyaku is of the same bloodline as the Sanayashiki family. The Sanayashiki family members are born sickly and weak and doomed to die at a young age due to Mushyashiki’s curse.
In order to break this curse, the San’yashiki family has been striving for generations to have wives from the Shinshiki clan and to break the curse of the family by defeating Mutsuko. The head of the Sanyashiki family, Teruya Sanyashiki, is the supreme leader of the Oni Killing Squad and a man of character who is trusted by the pillars. In reality, however, he is very sickly, having become the head of the Sanayashiki clan at the age of nine and suffering from the curse of Onimai Tsuji Mushyaku.
Teruya Sanayashiki and his family
In the Taisho era (1912-1926) depicted in the main story, Teruya San’yashiki is the 97th head of the family and leads the Onimusubutai despite his sickly condition. His wife, Amane San’yashiki, supports the family and sometimes commands the Oni Killing Squad in place of her sick husband. Amane has the ability to foretell the future and used this power to help in the fight against Mushashi.
Teruya and Amane have five children. Their eldest daughter, Hiaka Sanayashiki, has shown great talent despite her young age by nursing her father and participating in the Chugai Conference. The second daughter, Hina, is a strong woman who assists her father and supports the other sisters. The third daughter, Kumi Sanyashiki, and the fourth daughter, Katakata, have different personalities: Kumi is strong-willed, while Katakata is graceful and not good at sports, but has a strong will.
And the eldest son, Sangyashiki Teruriya, as the 98th head of the family, commanded the Oni-killer Squad in the final battle against Mushyasumi. He faced the curse of Mushashi and fought with the fate of his clan on his shoulders.
The Secret of Mutsuko and the Curse of the Sanyashiki Family
The relationship between the Sanayashiki family and Muthsura is very complicated. Muthsura is a distant relative of the Sanayashiki family. Muthyasumi was born with a weak constitution and was saved by a doctor, which gave him immortality. In return, however, he became a demon and acquired the cannibalistic impulse to eat humans. This was the birth of Mushyashi and the cause of the curse on the Sanyashiki family.
Mutsuyashi’s curse led to the San’yashiki family’s cursed fate as a prominent family. In order to break the curse, the San’yashiki family made it their family’s mission to defeat Mutsuko, and formed the Oni-killer Squad to continue fighting Mutsuko.
The Secret of the Bruise and the Beginning Swordsman
Another secret that the Sanyashiki family has kept hidden is the existence of birthmarks. The birthmark is a bruise resembling a demon’s pattern that appears on the body as a result of mastery of all concentrated breathing, and Sumijiro and the other Pillars gained superhuman abilities by manifesting it. The bruise is a derivative of the virus of cruelty, and those with the bruise are likely to be humans evolved by the virus of cruelty.
Another important secret kept by the Sanyashiki family is the existence of Yoriichi Tsugikuni, a swordsman of the beginning. Yoriichi is the legendary swordsman who laid the foundation of the swordsmanship used in the Onikagurei and was the only one who hunted down Mushashiro. However, Yoriichi was expelled from the Onikagiri-tai when his older brother, Tsugikunidou Katsu, became a demon and joined Mutsuko.
Why did they withhold information?
So why did the Sanyashiki family keep this information from the pillars? It was to prevent confusion and low morale within the Onikagiri-tai. Teruya San’yashiki was planning a strategy to defeat Mutsura without fail, and was taking care not to cause unnecessary anxiety among the Pillars. He also considered the risk of information being leaked to Mushashi, and by maintaining secrecy, he was able to maintain the unity of the Onimussuicide Squad and ultimately defeat Mushashi.
Conclusion.
The reason why the Sanayashiki family hid information even from the pillars was to maintain the strategy to defeat Mushashi and the unity of the Oninokitai. The Sanayashiki family has devoted everything in its long history to the fight against Mushashi. As a result, they were able to finally defeat Mutsuko and lift the family curse, albeit at the cost of many lives. It can be said that Teruya Sanyashiki’s determination and family ties led the Onikagitai to victory.
