Hello, I’m KENTA, a Japanese manga enthusiast! Today, we’ll delve into why Muzan Kibutsuji from “Demon Slayer” prioritized the attack on the Ubuyashiki Estate over the search for Nezuko Kamado. Let’s unravel the true intentions of Muzan that everyone is curious about. By reading this analysis, you might discover a new aspect of “Demon Slayer”! So, let’s embark on this exciting adventure together!
1. The Importance of a Demon Conquering the Sun for Muzan First, let’s examine how crucial it was for Muzan to find a demon capable of conquering the sun. For over a thousand years, Muzan has been desperately searching for a demon that could withstand sunlight and the Blue Spider Lily.
Muzan’s only weakness is sunlight. To overcome this weakness, he continuously created more demons, even though he preferred not to. While a demon can be defeated by decapitation with a Nichirin Blade, Muzan’s decapitation is ineffective. If he could conquer his only weakness, the sun, he would become an invincible being.
As shown in a recent episode, even when Himejima beheaded Muzan, he regenerated immediately, proving that Muzan is almost perfect. However, because he couldn’t overcome the weakness of the sun, he spent years searching for a demon with sunlight resistance.
