Main character from [[Kimetsu no Yaiba]].
He is a Demon Slayer in the Demon Slayer Corps, who joined to find a remedy to turn his sister,  [[Kamado Nezuko]], back into a human and to hunt down and kill demons, and later swore to defeat [[Kibutsuji Muzan]], the King of Demons, in order to prevent others from suffering the same fate as him.

Before he became a Demon Slayer, Tanjiro was a coal burner before his entire family was slaughtered by Muzan while his younger sister, Nezuko, was turned into a demon.

He has ruffled, [[black hair]] with burgundy tips, combed back to expose his forehead, and wide, dark [[red eyes]] with [[white pupils]] that appear lighter around the lower section of his irises.

Tanjiro first appears wearing a checkered, black and sea foam green [[haori]] over a white robe and black pants. He occasionally sports a [[turquoise scarf]] and is seen with circular, [[white bands]] looped around his calves. He also wears a distinct pair of [[hanafuda earrings]], with the image of the rising sun over a mountain.

During the Final Selection, Tanjiro wears a blue, cloud-patterned samue-styled [[kimono]] and [[black pants]], nearly identical to Sakonji's outfit. He still wears his [[hanafuda earrings]], but his hair is cut extremely short and remains the same length since. Similar to the rest of the apprentices that were trained under Sakonji, Tanjiro wears a hand-carved [[fox mask]] crafted from his master on the left side of his head. The mask has red accents on the eyes, ears, and spots on each corner of its mouth. On the upper right corner of the mask, there is a sun-shaped design that likely symbolizes the scar on his forehead.

After becoming a Demon Slayer, Tanjiro wears the standard [[Demon Slayer uniform]], a dark-brown gakuran jacket, a white belt, baggy chocho zubon pants that extend into tabi socks, a pair of zōri with red straps, and bands of white cloth wrapped tightly around his calves resembling kyahan, all beneath his signature [[checkered haori]]. He carries a large [[wooden box]] on his back (which was a gift to him from [[Urokodaki Sakonji]]), where his sister sleeps as they travel during the day.

[spoiler]After being turned into a [[demon]] by [[Kibutsuji Muzan]], Tanjiro is able to heal the growth on his face as well as regenerate his lost arm and other smaller injuries. He obtains eyes with [[slit pupils]], fangs and flame-shaped marks over his left forehead and right jaw that are reminiscent of those of [[Kokushibou]], in addition to a third, smaller flame-shaped mark coming down from the right side of his head down to his eyebrow after he conquered the weakness to sunlight. His scar turns into a flame-pattern as if it were a permanent Demon Slayer Mark, has become longer and is the largest of the three, and all three marks vaguely point towards his nose, though only his scar-mark reaches it. He still dons his bloodstained corps uniform, one sleeve ripped off where his arm was severed, but loses his checkered haori and the Nichirin Sword at his hip.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]After returning to his human form, Tanjiro loses the ability to see from his right eye, the iris of which is now a dull pink-gray color and the pupil black rather than its original white. His left arm, which he regrew as a [[Demon]], now takes the appearance of that which an older person may have, becoming wrinkled and skeletal, and he loses all feeling in it below the elbow and thus the ability to move it from his forearm down.[/spoiler]
