Hello! I’m KENTA, a huge manga fan from Japan! Welcome to all Demon Slayer fans, and to newcomers as well! Today, we’re focusing on the harsh training that the most powerful swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps, the Hashira, went through. Which of the Hashira had the toughest training? We’ll rank them and explore just how intense and grueling their training was. Demon Slayer is known for its intense battle scenes, but the bonds and growth of the characters are just as captivating. Behind their growth lies an immense amount of effort, and the training of the Hashira is a big part of that! The training the Hashira undergo is not just about physical fitness. They have risked their lives in order to defeat demons, undergoing extreme training in preparation for battle. Let’s take a closer look at which of their training was the most brutal! 1. Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji, the Love Hashira, may appear gentle and soft-spoken, but her training is far from easy. Her physical training focuses on high-intensity exercises that make use of her muscle strength. Intense Hip Flexor Stretches In one scene, Mitsuri is shown helping Tanjiro stretch his hip flexors by forcefully opening his legs.

Hello! I’m KENTA, a manga enthusiast from Japan. Today, I want to explore one of the most shocking scenes in the immensely popular series “Demon Slayer”—the fates of the Upper Moon demons. These demons are some of the most powerful entities in the story, stirring deep emotions in the audience. Their deaths reveal complex backstories that differentiate them from mere villains, adding depth to the narrative. Let’s dive into the final moments of each demon. 1. What Are the Upper Moon Demons? The Upper Moon demons consist of six of the strongest foes in the series, serving directly under Muzan, the progenitor of demons. They possess immense power and symbolize fear for humanity. Each Upper Moon demon has unique abilities and backstories, with tragic pasts from their human lives deeply influencing their actions. 2. Kyogai’s Tragedy First, let’s discuss Kyogai. He appears in the Swordsmith Village arc and identifies himself as an “artist.” His past is incredibly grim; during his human life, he was ostracized and exhibited psychopathic behavior. In his quest for artistic expression, he harmed those around him, and becoming a demon only intensified his brutality. Kyogai’s demise symbolizes his inner pain and suffering. During his battle with Muichiro, he regains some memories and fights valiantly, but ultimately, he is beheaded.

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 huge manga fan from Japan! Today, we’re diving deep into a ranking of the Hashira from the popular manga Demon Slayer. By exploring their charms and unique fighting styles, you’re sure to enjoy the series from a fresh perspective! Let’s embark on this exciting adventure together! 9th Place: Shinobu Kocho Shinobu Kocho is a petite woman who serves as the Insect Hashira. Although she is smaller in stature compared to other Hashira, she makes up for it with her quick movements and unique poison techniques. In the Natagumo Mountain arc, she demonstrates her strength by defeating the Lower Moon demon, Rui. Her poison is special and can affect demons, but it has limited effectiveness against Upper Moons. Notably, it didn’t work on Upper Moon Two, Doma. While her poison is incredibly potent, she must first inflict a wound on her opponent to deliver a fatal blow, raising questions about her effectiveness against other Hashira. 8th Place: Tengen Uzui Tengen Uzui, the Sound Hashira, possesses a flashy appearance and fierce combat skills. He has a flamboyant personality and exceptional physical abilities. Using the Sound Breathing technique, he excels at explosive attacks, which are particularly strong compared to other breathing styles.

Hi! I’m KENTA, a Japanese manga enthusiast. Today, I’ll be exploring why Zenitsu Agatsuma was the only one who didn’t fall into the Infinity Castle. While Tanjiro Kamado and his allies struggled, Zenitsu took a different path. Hidden behind this was a letter Zenitsu received and a deep story of his growth. We’ll dive into his relationship with Kaigaku, how Zenitsu’s heart changed, and the new side of him revealed through these events. By the end of this article, you’ll gain a deeper appreciation for Demon Slayer. Let’s dive in together! Why Zenitsu Didn’t Fall into the Infinity Castle In the Infinity Castle Arc of Demon Slayer, we see most of the main characters get drawn into the Infinity Castle. However, there’s no scene showing Zenitsu Agatsuma falling in. Unlike the others, he’s treated differently, and many fans have noticed this inconsistency. In this post, we’ll explore why Zenitsu didn’t fall into the castle and what it means for his character. What stands out about Zenitsu is that while other characters were suddenly sucked into the castle, Zenitsu seemed to act of his own will. This scene’s subtle hint lies in the letter Zenitsu received, which played a significant role in his actions.

Hello! I’m KENTA, a huge fan of manga. In today’s blog, we’ll dive deep into the intense battle between Kanao Tsuyuri and Doma from Demon Slayer. This is a fight that all Demon Slayer fans are curious about—one that wasn’t fully revealed in the main story. Together, we’ll explore the hidden mysteries and the untold strength of Kanao. As we analyze this legendary battle, you’ll uncover secrets about the story’s deeper layers. Let’s enjoy this thrilling exploration together! Who is Kanao Tsuyuri? Her Kindness and Tragic Past Let’s start by discussing Kanao Tsuyuri. She was the elder sister of Shinobu Kocho and served as the Flower Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps. However, her role in the story is mostly depicted through flashbacks, as she tragically passed away before the main events unfolded. Kanao was known for her gentle and serene personality, which matched her delicate appearance. Her life was far from peaceful. As a child, she and her sister Shinobu lost their parents to a demon attack and barely escaped death themselves, thanks to the intervention of Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Hashira. This event led Kanao to join the Demon Slayer Corps alongside her sister, with the goal of eradicating demons.

Hi there! I’m KENTA, a huge fan of manga! In this article, I’ll dive into the story of Demon Slayer: Mugen Train, focusing on what might have happened if Hashira other than Kyojuro Rengoku had been aboard the train. The Demon Slayer: Mugen Train arc is a crucial episode in which Tanjiro and his comrades grow stronger. At the heart of it is the Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku, whose bravery and final stand left a lasting impact on fans. But what if Rengoku hadn’t been the one to die? Could another Hashira have made the ultimate sacrifice in his place? Let’s explore this “what if” scenario! 1. Overview of the Mugen Train Arc and Kyojuro Rengoku’s Role The Mugen Train Arc was released as a movie and became a huge hit. In this story, the Demon Slayer Corps members, also known as the “Kamaboko Squad” (Tanjiro, Zenitsu, Inosuke, and Nezuko), face off against demons aboard the Mugen Train. They are accompanied by the Flame Hashira, Kyojuro Rengoku. The main antagonist is Enmu, Lower Rank One, who traps the passengers in dreams and tries to destroy their spirit cores from within those dreams. However, thanks to their incredible mental strength and refined techniques, Tanjiro and the others manage to break free and ultimately defeat Enmu.

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.

Hello, I’m KENTA, a Japanese manga enthusiast! In this article, I’ll be exploring the reason why Gyomei Himejima didn’t bring his Nichirin Blade to the Strategy Meeting during the Pillar Training Arc. This curious detail caught the attention of many fans watching the anime. We’ll dive into the unique characteristics of Gyomei’s Nichirin Blade and how it influences his fighting style. The Pillars at the Strategy Meeting First, let’s look back at what the Strategy Meeting was like. This meeting took place after the battle in the Swordsmith Village and discussed the “marks” that Mitsuri Kanroji and Muichiro Tokito awakened during the fight. In the meeting, each of the Pillars is shown placing their Nichirin Blades at their feet. However, Gyomei was the only one who didn’t have his blade with him, raising questions among fans. Characteristics of Gyomei Himejima’s Nichirin Blade Next, let’s examine the unique characteristics of Gyomei’s Nichirin Blade. Unlike the other Pillars, Gyomei’s weapon is composed of a handheld axe and a spiked flail connected by a chain. While the other Pillars wield sword-shaped Nichirin Blades, Gyomei’s weapon is clearly designed for a specialized fighting style. Some theories suggest that the spiked flail has a diameter of about 40 centimeters and weighs up to 300 kilograms, showcasing Gyomei’s extraordinary strength.
