Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Mitsuri is a curvaceous young woman of deceptively muscular build and a pale skin complexion. She stands slightly taller than average. She has large round, pale green eyes with long eyelashes and a small beauty mark beneath each of them. She has long, light pink hair that fades into a lime green color at the halfway point, which she wears in three thick braids. She has five shorter, choppy clumps hanging over her face as voluminous bangs, the tips lime green as well. When she was trying to get married, her hair was dyed black in an attempt to make herself look more "normal."
Mitsuri wears a heavily modified version of the standard black Demon Slayer uniform, tinted dark plum in the anime, along with a plain white haori that was gifted to her by Kyojuro Rengoku . [6] Because of its tight fit, the chest area of her jacket and her undershirt is left unbuttoned, and she wears a short pleated mini skirt in place of the usual tattsuke-hakama pants. Additionally, she wears a pair of navy blue thigh-high socks layered with the vertically striped lime-green socks Obanai Iguro gave to her and a pair of white zōri with pink straps tied and fastened with a bow on the front.
While at the Swordsmith Village , Mitsuri wore a kimono with floral designs.
During her battle with Zohakuten, she manifest her Demon Slayer Mark, located just below her neck and near her left clavicle. It appears as two red hearts positioned opposite from each other, aligned by two red teardrop-shaped spots in the middle.
During her and the other remaining Hashira's fight against Muzan , Mitsuri's left and back braids are cut off by Muzan Kibutsuji 's attacks, now shortened to shoulder length, and part of her left ear is also torn at the side. [7] Mitsuri also loses both of her arms in the process of ripping off Muzan's left arm. [8]

Mitsuri is a very emotional, passionate, and jovial individual who constantly compliments and swoons over her comrades in her head, likely a contributing factor towards her nickname as "the Hashira of Love." Although she can be shy and is easily flustered, Mitsuri is always kind to others. However, despite her gentle and seemingly innocent demeanor, Mitsuri will show no mercy in the face of demons , instead expressing such sentiments with a fierce tone. She showcases a great amount of dedication to the Demon Slayers' cause. Despite being put out of commission by Muzan at an early stage in their battle, she was determined enough to return and fight.
Given her desperation for marriage, Mitsuri decided to become a member of the Corps with the purpose of finding a suitable husband stronger than her, a rather difficult task given the astounding level of her physical strength. Upon joining the Corps, she felt an immense amount of guilt for her reasoning behind becoming a Demon Slayer to the point where she ate much less than her typical meals. However, she was able to move past those feelings with the help of Shinobu Kocho and Obanai Iguro . [9]

Mitsuri excitedly welcoming Tanjiro.

Besides her rather emotional personality, Mitsuri can also come off as somewhat childlike at times. When she is asked to explain the process of obtaining the Demon Slayer Mark , she describes it using bizarre onomatopoeia. She's also prone to exaggerated over-reactions. She is a very caring person, always showing others her love as befits her Hashira title. She can get rather excitable, grabbing her friends for a big group hug after the battle against Gyokko and Hantengu.
When she is slashed by Muzan and taken out of the battle by Obanai, she says she wants to be of use and not drag everyone else down. She even begs for Obanai to come back and not get himself killed. This alludes to her love for him, the person she can finally feel for and be loved by. She shares Obanai's hope that they could reincarnate, meet each other and get married in another life.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Muichiro is a young boy of fair skin and short stature with a lean muscular build along with long, straight hair of a raven-black color that fades to a cyan color as it approaches his waist. He wears his hair loose with two clumps protruding slightly from each side of his head, a set of marginally shorter hair left down to frame his face, and unruly bangs over his forehead. He also possesses large, empty-looking cyan eyes. He is identical in appearance to his older twin brother Yuichiro .
Following his meeting with Tanjiro Kamado and the return of his childhood memories, Muichiro's once empty looking eyes seem to now have a hopeful glimmer that is accompanied with a more upbeat and cheery expression, reminiscent of his former demeanor before the death of Yuichiro.
Muichiro wears a black standard Demon Slayer uniform, tinted bluish black in the anime, consisting of a button-up jacket with a stand collar. However, he wears longer, looser sleeves that are more reminiscent of those of a kimono than of the standard uniform shirt-like cuff sleeves. Along with this, in the place of the standard tattsuke hakama wrapped by a pair of white kyahan around his calves, he wears his hakama in the umanori style, that along his style of sleeves, gives a loose and oversized appearance to his whole garment. He also has dark blue tabi socks and a pair of white zōri with dark blue straps.
When Muichiro was young, he wore a light, sleeveless yukata with a cyan mist design, similar to the darker one his brother wore when they were both ten.
Due to Tanjiro's presence around him, Muichiro manifested his Demon Slayer Mark during the battle against the Upper Rank 5 Gyokko . Muichiro's mark is blood red coloured, resembling mist shaped clouds on both his cheeks and the left side of his forehead.

Muichiro is an air-headed individual who seems to constantly wander off in thought and is unable to focus on anything. Impassive and, at times, obtuse, he tends to think only for himself and operates on logic alone, never letting emotions guide him, making him seem seemingly apathetic and indifferent. However, Tanjiro Kamado sensed that Muichiro wasn't being apathetic on purpose as he didn't emanate any animosity. Despite his mostly uncaring and unserious demeanor, he has been shown to become serious when it is required and is devoted to his position as the Demon Slayer Corps ' Mist Hashira . Alternatively he seems to display a cold and arrogant side; as shown by him violently shaking down Kotetsu and calling him stupid, saying his time as a Hashira was important, more so than his own, and that all that the swordsmiths could do was make weapons. Despite this, Muichiro doesn't seem to be indifferent towards Kagaya Ubuyashiki , most likely due to his immense respect for his master.

Muichiro's original cheery and optimistic disposition.

However, before the death of his twin brother when the siblings were eleven, Muichiro's personality was that of a much more compassionate and optimistic individual, the polar opposite of his current disposition. Having originally taken after his father, he was shown to display a higher level of kindness and understanding, believing he should aim to do good for others if he wanted good to be done for him. When told by Amane Ubuyashiki that they were descendants to Demon Slayers of old, Muichiro became excited at the prospect of being able to protect people.
After his brother was attacked by a demon and witnessing his final moments and death, Muichiro subsequently lost his memories and has held an omnipresent rage deeply suppressed inside of him that inevitably drove his future, intense training. After this memory loss, he started exhibiting the indifferent attitude of his twin brother he is now known for as a Hashira . Following his battle with Gyokko and reuniting with Tanjiro after the latter's battle with Hantengu , he warmly thanked Tanjiro for helping him regain his identity and showed concern for his wellbeing.

Muichiro's compassion for Tanjiro.

During his later interactions with Tanjiro , Muichiro started regaining his memories of his past, causing him to behave more maturely and seriously, even choosing to help Kotetsu when his life was in danger instead of ignoring him. After his memory was fully restored, Muichiro began expressing more emotions and became more confident in himself and started caring more for his peers in the Demon Slayer Corps . He also started exhibiting emotions common for someone his age, particularly childishness and immaturity when interacting with his other Demon Slayers . He also appears to be evidently biased towards Tanjiro after his battle with Gyokko in the Swordsmith Village , as his cheerful demeanor when around him was replaced by a cold indifference when around other Demon Slayers. However, he was shown to be more aware of himself and those around him, evident when he realized that Obanai Iguro had a crush on Mitsuri Kanroji , which surprised Gyomei Himejima . His kindness also aided him in building friendships among the Demon Slayers and making happy memories like the ones back when he lived with his family.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Mukago was a short woman of slight stature. She had very light gray skin, two dark red stripes across her cheeks, and a pair of white horns protruding from either side of her forehead. Her eyes were a grayish purple shade with white rings around the sides and dark red sclera, with the kanji for Lower ( 下 , Ka ? ) and the daiji for Four ( 肆 , Shi ? ) was etched onto her left eye, which signified her position. She also possessed chin-length white hair with shorter bangs between her horns.
Mukago wore a plain red kimono with a black-and-white fur-lined collar tied up at the back with a large, dark purple bow, white tabi socks, and black zōri shoes that have orange colored straps.

Like most demons, Mukago held great fear and respect for Muzan Kibutsuji . However, out of all the Lower Ranks, she was also shown to be the most cowardly. As stated by Muzan through reading her thoughts, Mukago had no intention of battling the Demon Slayer Corps ' Hashira and planned to flee at the mere mention of one, noted to have done so numerous times. When Muzan learned of this, Mukago attempted to deny her thoughts in an attempt to appease him.

Murata is a young man of average height and athletic build. He has straight jet-black hair parted down the middle, fair skin tone, and black eyes.
Murata wears the standard predominantly black Demon Slayer uniform, consisting of a gakuran jacket and tattsuke-hakama pants.

A younger Murata during Final Selection

Not much is known about Murata, however, he does not like it when a hunter of lower rank chastises him. He is somewhat timid, however he does seem braver than most, continuing to fight atop Mount Natagumo even after his entire group was wiped out.
He is often exasperated by his more eccentric comrades like the rambunctious Inosuke Hashibira . In addition, he has large amount of respect and fear for the Hashira as well, as although he's extremely intimidated by them, he commends their strength.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Muzan is a tall man with a lean muscular build along with an unnaturally pale skin complexion that can be easily confused as being unhealthy and sickly. He has curly black hair and sharp, almond-shaped eyes. His irises are cat-like in appearance and are of a plum red color. He also possesses sharp, blue nails on his hands. Physically, he appears to be in his twenties.
In his first appearance, Muzan was shown wearing a white fedora with a red ribbon and a somewhat extravagant outfit, consisting of an embroidered black tuxedo and a white tie over a black dress shirt and white dress pants. He also wore black loafers. As seen in Rui's memories of meeting Muzan, the Demon King once sported a slightly different hairstyle and outfit in the past. When he met Rui, Muzan's hair was straighter and parted down the middle. He also wore a loose-fitting tuxedo and a white half-cloak over it.
During his meeting with the Lower Ranks , he arrived disguised as an elegant woman with a chignon hairstyle while wearing a long black yukata, causing the Lower Ranks to not initially recognize him. [10] Later, he transforms himself into his latest cover identity - the adopted sickly son to an old couple - taking the form of a young child with pale, white skin and black, silky smooth, neatly combed black hair. His main outfit in this disguise is a plain white button-up shirt and black cargo shorts with long tube socks and loafers.
In his meeting with Kagaya Ubuyashiki , Muzan donned a lavish three-piece suit consisting of a white collared shirt, a black tie, a black and gray paisley waistcoat closed with gold buttons, and a white suit coat. He wore a pair of white formal trousers, light brown dress shoes, and completed his attire with a long black collared overcoat.
After he neutralizes Tamayo 's human-conversion drug and emerges from his flesh cocoon, Muzan's hair grows in length and turns white due to Shinobu 's poison accelerating his age. He also grows numerous mouths all over his limbs, each one lined with a set of incredibly sharp teeth. His skin also appears to have a dark-red mass growing from the ends of his limbs and branching onto his body. [11] It is later revealed that Muzan has an array of scars all across his body from the wounds inflicted during his battle against Yoriichi Tsugikuni, which had burned down into him at a cellular level and never fully healed despite happening over four hundred years ago. These wounds are not visible in plain sight and only come to light when his regeneration weakens.
During his final struggle, in an effort to protect himself from the dawn's light, Muzan adopts an enlarged demonic infant form, approximately as tall as a 3 story building when standing up. In this form he has very pronounced blood vessels across his body, small claws in his hands and fanged teeth in his mouth.

Muzan is cold-hearted, ruthless, intimidating, and exceptionally intelligent. He sees no value in any humans he has encountered and shows little value in his own subordinates. Rarely ever visibly upset or happy, he appears completely monotone and detached on most occasions, even when he callously murders his own subordinates. The only times he ever shows emotion are when his vision of perfection is moving forward or when he has subordinates completely submit to his will. Initially, his expressions would only change slightly and only bear a slight shift from his usual calm attitude and his tone of voice tends to be consistent at nearly all times, accentuating his monotonous demeanor. His cruel and imposing nature has gained him the great admiration and fear of many demons.

Muzan's sadistic and arrogant attitude.

After Hantengu informs him of Nezuko Kamado 's survival of sunlight, Muzan reveals a side that is in stark contrast to his perpetual composed disposition, as he is shown to be ecstatic at the prospect of absorbing her to finally gain the immunity to sunlight himself. In addition, he also shows himself to be extremely arrogant and prideful, first seen when he mockingly asked a platoon of soldiers sent to kill him if they were referring to him. His boastful side is also shown when he gloats to Kagaya about never facing any divine retribution for his millennia of murders. Furthermore, he is shown to have a sadistically cruel side to him, first shown when he reminds Tamayo on how she murdered and ate her family following her transformation, gleefully smiling as she wells up with tears and further reminding her that she killed more people as well. In addition, when Muzan has Nakime summon the Demon Slayers Corps inside the Infinity Castle, he sadistically boasts to Tanjiro that he will murder the entirety of its members that night, and when he responds with a vow to hunt him down, Muzan boldly dares the Demon Slayer to follow up on his threat if he can. It is apparent that after his encounter with Yoriichi Tsugikuni , Muzan's more vicious and overconfident personality was stifled by the sheer terror brought upon by the Demon Slayer that nearly killed him, only resurfacing after learning of Nezuko's ability and realizing a new chance to complete his ultimate goal is now in his grasp.
His inflated ego and delusional sense of self-worth are so large, he cannot stand being mocked or corrected in any fashion, believing that others only exist to serve him. This also means he rarely ever takes any opponent or threat seriously. He brutally killed a drunk man simply for being rude to him and killed the man's brother and a female companion when they had done nothing, all while proclaiming of his own perfection and superiority over them, displaying his shrewd pettiness as he won't settle for any mockery and will do anything he pleases until the humiliation is remedied. This event also hints that Muzan has unpleasant memories of his weaker, human past, and is very self-conscious of his unnaturally sickly appearance, immediately following his own rhetorical questioning with a lengthy denial that he is unhealthy, sick and much less on the verge of death, in all likelihood a bitter reminder that he is still imperfect. When he confronts Kagaya Ubuyashiki , the man responded to Muzan in a tone of pity and sadness for the life he had led. However, Muzan only interpreted his words as insults and threats, which further accentuates his hatred for humanity and the Demon Slayers. He also believes that Heaven has let him off the hook for murdering thousands as he has never seen a god or Buddha.

Muzan ruthlessly punishing Akaza for his failure.

The most prominent trait Muzan possesses is extreme narcissism, pettiness, and an obsession with becoming the perfect being. As he has had over a thousand years to live and observe, along with hardly any real challenges, his extreme egocentrism is almost expected. He considers almost nothing to be his concern except overcoming his inability to walk in the sun, which is his primary drive. His long life and obsessions have caused him to want every plan he concocts to be absolutely perfect, and his superiority complex prevents him from seeing his own failures. His belief that he is the closest thing to a perfect being causes him to have zero tolerance for any failure, brutally punishing those who fail him or those he considers weak, even if the failures are minor.
Furthermore, his delusional sense of omnipotence is such that he compares himself to natural disasters, namely something that is far beyond what humans can compare to and fight against. As a result of this, he believes the Demon Slayers to be a group of deviants who cannot accept the "natural" order of things and resume their lives as normal when other people simply move ahead following a tragedy. His analogy evidences his complete inability to feel sympathy or remorse for his actions, given that none of the murders he ever committed (directly or indirectly) were the result of an accident but carefully orchestrated acts of pure evil. On the contrary, he considers his greatest adversaries as the real problems. After being heavily damaged by Kagaya commiting suicide by exploding his own mansion, Muzan is left in astonishment that Kagaya's hatred for him would prompt him to pull such an action, questionining his sanity and calling him a wicked man with a pitch-black heart. In addition, when he recalls the immense strength Yoriichi had in almost killing him, he claims that for that reason, he was the real monster.
Being the obsessive perfectionist he is, Muzan loathes the very concept of change; be it change of circumstance, physical, emotional or change of any kind. He equates change to decay, and thus evidence of imperfection. In his own words, he loves things that remain unchanging, constant, and in a state of permanence. At the same time, he views one's own humanity as a sign of weakness, believing Gyutaro had lost because he was still attached to his sister Daki , and he even derided the Upper Ranks by stating that they were now ranked in order of how much humanity they had left. Gyutaro's defeat at the hand of the Demon Slayers deeply angered Muzan, as they had undone a status quo that lasted for 113 years, causing him to lash out and demand more self-sacrifice out of the remaining Upper Ranks. This could also explain his brutal execution of the Lower Ranks demons, as the echelon was in a constant state of change due to their frequent deaths, eventually causing Muzan to believe that maintaining the positions was no longer worthwhile. Conversely, he is pleased whenever he sees any amount of progress that may benefit him, as he uncharacteristically complimented Nakime for her rapid growth after being turned into the new Upper Rank Four.

Muzan displaying his cowardly nature by fleeing from his opponents.

Behind the myriad of façades he displays, and completely offsetting his insatiable ego and lust for perfection, Muzan is unbelievably cowardly. He always seeks to avoid conflict whenever possible, and his refusal to confront an unpleasant situation was most evident in his encounter with Giyu Tomioka and Tanjiro Kamado . He stated that the duo managing to survive should already be sufficient for them, telling them they should accept that the people he has killed will not come back, and they should instead live to earn their wages and put a halt to the cycle of revenge. This trait also complements his manipulative nature, bending many demons to his will to do his bidding while he doesn't get his hands dirty. In the final confrontation between him and the Demon Slayers, Muzan attempted numerous times to escape, either by attempting to split himself or merely running away, even demanding multiple times for the remaining Demon Slayers to just give up fighting and die, once again cementing his cowardly nature.
He has shown himself to be very manipulative and cunning, being able to blend in human society normally, even having a family of his own to add. A long life and continued practice have allowed him to take on many roles in society and play them capably, including children and women should he choose to. This life has also given him great intelligence and the ability to think tactically. Being a quick-thinker and strategist enables Muzan to be able to deal with unfavorable situations rapidly and successfully, though this may also be because the loss of his subordinates means nothing to him in the long run.

Muzan manipulating Akaza to continue fighting.

Because of his perceived superiority and his double-faced nature, he feels no attachment to his henchmen, using them and discarding them as disposable pawns whenever he sees fit. Additionally, he does not allow his subordinates to question him, regularly enacting brutal and ruthless punishments should they do so. Many of his subordinates, in turn, are deeply afraid of him, and measure their words and thoughts carefully for fear of saying anything that may displease him. In spite of this, he is able to sway many demons to his side with promises of power, revenge, and grandeur so long as they serve him. His intelligence and manipulation shine here, since many find the promises appealing, as he encounters many of his subordinates at their lowest point. In the end, all of these promises are ultimately false, given that Muzan only cares about himself and has no qualms about killing his own subordinates to protect his own safety.
Muzan is also shown to be a corruptive force that enables the worst qualities in his demons, by either rewiring them through tampering with their mind, or playing into their emotions. Notable examples include erasing Akaza's memory of his human past and fostering his manic desire to fight and become stronger, playing into Hantengu's victim complex by claiming to pity him, telling Rui who was distraught by killing his own parents by claiming that they deserved it for not accepting him, and tempting Kokushibo with the option to become a demon in order to surpass his brother and later telepathically pressuring him to defeat the Hashira during his fight in the Infinity Castle .
However, despite his cruelty, even to his own subordinates, Muzan can allow for leniency should a demon fall into favor with him. Notable examples include allowing Rui to weaken himself by sharing his own power with other demons in order to form a "family", and giving Akaza permission to not eat women, even though he personally disagreed with both of their choices.
When not hiding behind a façade, his sheer malice and overflowing violent intent are so incredibly malignant, they can be perceived by others. Most notably, Yoriichi Tsugikuni described him as being like boiling magma erupting from a volcano, ready to consume everything. In the anime, the extent of his rage is visible during the Upper Ranks meeting, where the many glasses and flasks he was working with all broke apart and exploded into thousands of pieces due to Muzan's boiling frustration over being unable to achieve his goals, his fury greatly intimidating the Upper Ranks.
Beyond his egocentric demeanor lies a sense of self-preservation that easily overrides his megalomania, most notably shown by his act of cursing his subordinates in a terrifying manner so that none of them would even utter his name, or else be killed instantly in a ruthless manner. When pushed into a corner, Muzan's typically calm, arrogant, and superior stance collapses, paving the way for panic and fear to take root as he desperately fights for his life, adopting more drastic measures to protect himself. This obsession with survival could well explain Muzan's brutal homicide of three civilians after his first encounter with Tanjiro. Both times he was reminded of the two major events where he nearly lost his life, namely his life coming close to ending before his treatment took effect and when Yoriichi overpowered and nearly killed him.

Muzan's interest in chemistry.

Regardless of Muzan's personal faults, he has repeatedly shown a very notable fondness for both high fashion and higher learning. Whenever shown outside battle, he comes in the appearance of an extremely well dressed individual. In his Tsukihiko guise he dresses in a fedora and suit. On an interesting note, his 'wife' Rei is shown in a cloche hat and elegant dress, hinting that he enjoys himself living in wealth and luxury; adding to this is the fact that Muzan is also known to sell Gyokko's pots, which can fetch a high price. In his Toshikuni guise, he wears button up pants and a dress shirt, and is shown doing a great deal of personal studying. During the Upper Ranks meeting , he was casually mixing various chemicals showing he had an expertise in chemistry, more than likely to create a medicine in order to improve his demonic physiology to conquer the sun and/or not need to consume flesh and blood.

Muzan's constant struggle against death resulting in his desire for immortality.

Later, upon his defeat and final moments, as he burned away due to his exposure to the sun, Muzan showed a much more vulnerable side to his personality as he slowly disintegrated to ash and lamented on his life and choices. It is revealed that Muzan's true fear of dying and immense desire to live and survive was due to him being born "dead," where his heart would constantly stop in his mother's womb and was assumed stillborn until he fought to breathe before his cremation. Muzan's desire for "life" and his near constant struggles while human constructed his obsessive ambition to survive, and he truly felt vulnerable whenever he was reminded of his human frailty. However, even when on the brink of death, he remains utterly unrepentant of murdering and eating humans for a thousand years, stating that he could not remember a single person he had killed.
However, as Muzan reflects on his life while dying from sunlight, he came to understand and accept Kagaya Ubuyashiki 's words to him on the fact that everything inevitably dies and the only true "immortal" thing in the world are someone's emotions, feelings and memories. This realization brings Muzan to tears and genuinely moves his heart, causing him to ironically adopt Yoriichi and Kagaya's belief and focus on leaving "something" behind in order to truly become "immortal".

Nagakura is a male with a trimmed buzzcut hair style, eyelids always shut, and a noticeably round nose.

Not much is known about his personality, but he is impressed by the Hashira 's skills. He is also shown to express a sense of camaraderie and cared for his fellow Demon Slayers, as seen when he risked his life to protect Tanjiro from Muzan's attack.

Naho is a light-skinned, young girl with black button-like eyes. Her hair is parted in the middle with two braided twin tails tied with green butterfly clips.
She wears a long-sleeved nurse uniform with a green wrap tied into a bow around her waist and white socks and shoes.

Naho is bright, cheery, and helpful, readily willing to help others.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Nakime is a pale woman with a grayish complexion, who has sharp, blue-stained nails and notably dark pink lips which sharply contrasted the tone of her skin. She has glossy, hip-length hair of a black color, which she wore falling down her back in slight waves that cut off sharply at the ends, with two chin-length strands left to frame her face and long bangs that obscured her large eye set in between them, swept to either side of her nose.
Nakime dons a plain-loose black kimono with a white loose yuban underneath, secured with a striped pale brown-striped obi, white socks and no shoes or clogs. She was always seen holding a four-stringed wooden biwa with a large bachi pick .
Since becoming an Upper Rank, Nakime took to wearing her bangs as to not obscure her face, showing that she possessed a single large, pink-colored eye with the daiji for "Four" ( 肆 , Shi ? ) engraved into its iris. The upper portion of her face was also revealed, and appeared to be a darker gray color than the rest of her pale skin with prominent veins surrounding her one eye. In addition, her hair would grow extensively and resembles roots on a nearby wall.

Nakime's as Upper 4 in the manga. Nakime's as Upper 4 in the anime.

Unlike most demons, Nakime was not particuarly violent or sadistic, and instead is aloof and taciturn, almost never speaking and displaying little to no emotion or will outside of obeying orders. She was extremely loyal to Muzan, listening and following his every order faultlessly, something he appreciated; in fact, her unwavering loyalty to him is one of the very few instances Muzan ever complimented an individual, though it seemed more likely that he was satisfied to have a powerful tool to use at his disposal. Despite this outwardly one-sided relationship, Nakime graciously accepted his words and told her master she was honored to be of great use to him.
She showed little interaction with other demons and seems to be mostly disinterested in their presence. During the Lower Ranks Meeting , she calmly sat by and observed with the same stone-faced expression as the demons were all ruthlessly killed, almost paying them no attention and simply waiting for Muzan to give her another order. Similarly, in the Upper Ranks Meeting later on, she only speaks during two instances; answering Akaza's queries and rejecting Doma's invitation to be at his temple. Despite this, in her battle against Obanai Iguro and Mitsuri Kanroji , Nakime appeared to be very confident in her powers and did not regard the threat the two posed on her, remaining unmoving as the Hashira launched numerous attacks against her that would prove futile due to her vast and highly unorthodox powers.
Ironically, she displayed the stereotypical murderous behavior of demons when she was a human.  This is shown when after her husband lost her favorite kimono when gambling, Nakime flew into a blind rage and murdered him with a hammer. In addition, after she successfully played her usual Biwa performances after killing her husband, Nakime had a habit of murdering people before preformances, because she was anxious and her finger trembled which produced an effect on the strings of the biwa that the audience liked.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Nezuko is a young girl with fair skin, visibly large, prominent fangs, a slender build, and sharp, stiletto nails with a base color of light pink and ombre fading to a red-pinkish color at the end where they point. Her hair is long, black, and wavy. It reaches just below her waist, turning a flame-orange color as it passes her elbows, and appears to be crimped into large, straight ridges, worn side-swept drastically to her left. She has soft-looking, pale pink eyes that appear a lighter color around the rims of their irises and on the center a persian pink below the pupils; they slanted downwards toward the sides of her face and framed by notably long eyelashes. Her pupils appear as black slits as she transforms. In the manga, Nezuko can sometimes be shown with more than one bow. According to Tanjiro, Nezuko was known as a great beauty in their home town. [4]
She wears a light pink kimono with an asanoha (hemp leaf) pattern, the lining a paler pink layered with the white  wavy yuban underneath as a medium-length trailing skirt kimono to freely move as a demon; this, the white clothes  lowly cover her knees then goes down to almost her ankles making a open window, secured by a red and white-chequered hanhaba obi with an orange-threaded obijime and a green obiage . Over this, she sports a long, dark-brown haori that reaches her calves, as well as a pair of zōri with pink straps and white tabi socks , wrapped with thick pieces of black material resembling kyahan . Nezuko also wears a small pink ribbon on the left side of her head to keep her hair out of her face, along with the bamboo muzzle Giyu Tomioka gave her, [5] which is secured around her jaw with a strip of red cloth.
When Nezuko transforms into her awakened form during her fight with Daki , she has a bigger, taller, and more curvaceous body with longer hair that reaches to her feet. She loses her bamboo muzzle and footwear, as well as the sleeves of her  kimono. She grows a short white horn on the right side of her forehead, designed with an irregular crack pattern, along with vein-like patterns in her forehead near her horn. She has a vein-like pattern around her left eye, but her most striking new feature is the red and green vine-like pattern that covers her skin, circling around her arms, legs, and chest, along with crack-like patterns around the rim of her irises.
As a human, she had a very similar appearance, the only differences being her lack of demon-like traits, fiery-coloured hair, and pale pink eyes. Instead, Nezuko had fully black hair, was tied back in three low buns, was decorated by pink ribbons, and had eyes of a darker pink color. She wore the same kimono, just without her haori and with a layered pink kimono with the white yuban underneath, along with a white Onbuhimo cloth tied around her, which she used to carry her little brother, Rokuta Kamado , on her back. [6] After becoming human again, these features return, with the exception of her hair, which seems to retain its flame-orange tips, [7] a feature that would be passed down to her descendant, Toko .

Nezuko's original personality as a human was that of a kind and caring girl who thought of others before herself, much like her older brother, Tanjiro. Additionally, she was a responsible elder sister to her younger siblings and often put their needs before her own. [8] [9] Nezuko is, however, not afraid to get in harm's way, protecting her friends from demons even after being returned to a human state. It is also shown that Nezuko's humane, laid-back demeanor supports this fact after Tanjiro apologizes to her. [10]

Nezuko's friendly disposition.

While Nezuko initially starts off like any other demon, bloodthirsty and hungry for human flesh, after seeing her brother's desire to protect her from being killed by a Demon Slayer despite her being a demon, she changes completely and becomes fiercely protective of him. Nezuko seems to have forgotten a good portion of her memories as a human, besides those related to her family, and thus doesn't retain the exact personality she had before transformation, instead acting akin to a child. She is still very caring and protective towards humans who she sees as members of her family, although this is mainly due to the influence Sakonji Urokodaki had on her while she was asleep for two years. Nezuko also retains some of her human emotions, as she has been seen to cry when sad and smile when happy, but in general, she appears more detached than her human cohorts, although she is still much calmer and less malicious than most demons. Nezuko also tends to see the images of her siblings in other humans, like Rokuta Kamado in Yushiro .

Nezuko protecting Tanjiro from Giyu.

Since becoming a demon, Nezuko appears to have become rather brazen and does not seem to fear fighting; she fiercely guards her brother as well as her allies. She has also developed a strong willpower, which can be seen through her refusal to consume human flesh or blood, even in cases of extreme injury or exposure to human blood, which can be seen when she refuses Sanemi Shinazugawa after he attempts to lure her into biting him with his Marechi blood. [11] Her strong willpower remains even when she is no longer a demon, as shown when she willingly leaps in front of Inosuke to protect him from her own brother, who had become a demon and was attempting to kill those around him. Though she could have been killed, Nezuko did not hesitate to protect her brother.
On the rare occasion that Nezuko attempts speech, she has been seen to stutter a lot, which may be due to her bamboo mouthpiece, which is seldom removed, and the fact that she didn't speak for a number of years after her transformation. However, after developing resistance towards sunlight, which allows her to go outside and interact with others more often, her speech has shown signs of improvement, and she is able to fully pronounce words if someone else has just spoken them, [12] or hears them repeated frequently enough. [13]
It was later revealed by Tamayo that her missing memories and underdeveloped personality were due to her not being fully conscious, as she prioritized developing her resistance to the sun over regaining her consciousness. [14]


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Like the rest of her family, Nichika had large eyes with pale skin. She wore her short, white hair in a blunt bob with a fringe.
Nichika wore a dark blue Hōmongi kimono with purple flowers as its pattern and a maroon obi with a cream yellow obiage and juban under everything. On the left side of her hair, she donned a yellow ribbon.

Not much was known about her personality, but she does show a sense of loyalty for dying along with her twin sister when their father sacrificed himself to defeat Muzan. Kiriya describes his sister as more skilled than him.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Noguchi is a male with a long bob cut hairstyle, green eyes, and an x-shaped scar on his right shoulder.

Not much is known about his personality, but he is impressed by the Hashira's skills.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Obanai is a young man of short stature, pale skin complexion, and a fairly muscular build. He has straight-edged raven-black hair of varying lengths, the longest reaching down to his shoulders and the shortest stopping at his cheekbones, which he wears down with two shorter strands hanging between his eyes. His eyes are almond-shaped and tilt upwards on the far sides, and are unique colored due to Obanai possessing heterochromia—his right eye is yellow and his left eye is teal. He is partially blind, barely able to see out of his right eye. [4]
Obanai's mouth is usually hidden by the bandage he wears over his lower face to hide his large facial scars, which were the result of his family horrifically cutting open his mouth to resemble that of a snake's gape. [5]
He wears a black standard Demon Slayer uniform, tinted deep koamaru in the anime, along with a black and white striped haori , the hem and cuffs of which are striped length ways rather than vertically, which covers his hands. Obanai also sports bandages as his leg-wraps around his calves giving the resemblance of more classic kyahan , as well as another set of bandages that cover his mouth, and white with blue-strapped zōri on his feet. He is also always seen with his white snake, Kaburamaru , wrapped around his shoulders.
During the battle with Muzan, Obanai and the other remaining Hashira are attacked by the demon's flailing whips, and Obanai is left with three long slanted scratches over his eyes, rendering him completely blind. [6]
When he was a child, Obanai had waist-length hair that he wore tied down his back with a long white bandage and a regular-looking mouth before it got cut by his family. He also wore a plain white kimono.

Obanai is a very harsh and strict individual who shows no concern for those who do not abide by the rules of the Demon Slayer Corps. His expectations for his fellow Demon Slayers are quite unrealistic, as he was seen berating Tengen Uzui for suffering heavy wounds against the "weakest" Upper Rank and telling him to "fight to the death" when Tengen insists on retiring. Tengen's retirement also highlights Obanai's devotion to the future of the Demon Slayer Corps, often at others' expense, such as when he ties up lower-ranked Demon Slayers and uses them as obstacles during Hashira Training for relatively petty reasons. He also sees the newer Demon Slayer recruits as weak and incapable of improvement, expressing extreme surprise when Tengen informs him that Tanjiro Kamado survived the battle with Daki and Gyutaro . Obanai has a rather prominent habit of pointing at people with his finger in an accusatory manner while berating them or talking badly about someone.

Obanai threatens Tanjiro for growing too close to Mitsuri.

Despite his merciless personality, there are two people he cares deeply about: Kagaya Ubuyashiki and Mitsuri Kanroji . He has a crush on Mitsuri, as he often lets his feelings shine through by sharing meals with her and giving gifts, such as the signature green socks she wears with her uniform. Obanai seems to let his overprotectiveness of Mitsuri show at times, such as when he threatens Tanjiro for growing too close to her. [7] It was implied that he has a crush on Mitsuri because of her cheerful personality that didn't let any of the hellish training she had gone through to radiate in the slightest. Talking with her also made him forget all the strife and conflict he had encountered during his past and made him feel as if he was an ordinary young man. [8] Like all the Hashira, Obanai has a great deal of respect for Kagaya too.

Obanai's traumatic past taking a toll on his mental health.

Obanai is also noted to possess an immense sense of self-loathing due to the fact that he was born to a selfish and immoral clan who would mercilessly sacrifice even newborn children to a demon for their own monetary gain. Obanai considers himself and his family so tainted that years after they were killed, he still felt as if his family were digging their nails into his skin to make sure he couldn't go anywhere. [9] He even goes as far as to believe that, in order for him to ever be worthy of Mitsuri, he would first have to die and cleanse himself of his corrupted blood before confessing his feelings to her. [9]
His upbringing also seems to be the cause of his gynophobia since he was born into a family of only women who treated him like a tool. The trauma of his past can also be seen in the form of his facial bandages that he dons to cover the terrible scars he received, never removing it until the final battle . In addition to the horrible treatment he received from his family, of being treated as a mere tool and sacrifice, Obanai was deeply affected by the words of resentment and hatred from his only surviving cousin when she said that the entire family died simply because he ran away. Although he recognized that her grudge and words were illogical, he chose to accept that he was at fault and even considered himself as corrupt as his family was, believing he was not worthy to live a normal life. This shows that despite the various unpleasant traits of his personality, Obanai actually has a conscience and morals, unlike his family.
Obanai has an incredible sense of determination, continuing the fight against Muzan even after he is completely blinded and covered in wounds. His ability to protect Giyu and Tanjiro throughout the fight, as well as thanking Tanjiro for helping him and later even took a blow for him proves that Obanai was able to drop his initial grudges and become more open with people he was rude to prior.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Omitsu was a middle-aged woman with noticeable wrinkles on her face and sharp eyes. Her black hair was tied up in a type of tsubushi shimada style held with a decorative comb.
Omitsu was seen wearing a patterned kimono tied with a light-colored obi .

Although not much is known about Omitsu's personality, it was evident that she was an esteemed figure in the brothel, evident by the number of people that mourned her passing in the days after she was discovered dead. [1]
Omitsu initially respected Warabihime , as shown when she first ignored the incidents revolving around her. However, that respect eventually evaporated over time and ultimately led Omitsu to confront Warabihime in an attempt to protect her staff from further harm. [2]


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Ozaki was a plain-looking young girl with wide, dark brown eyes that faded to a lighter color at the bottom and shoulder-length black hair that she wore tied up in a mid ponytail, with some shorter bangs left hanging over her face.
She wore the standard Demon Slayer uniform.

Despite her short presence, it is presently obvious that she was a very kind and selfless girl. She warned her fellow Demon Slayers to not approach her since she would just end up unintentionally hurting them, begging them to summon someone of higher rank, not just for her but for the other captured Demon Slayers.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Rei was a young woman of average height. She had large brown eyes, a fair complexion, and dark hair styled in a neat bun. She appears to be of similar age to her husband.
In her minor appearance to both the anime and manga, she was seen wearing a white cloche hat, ornate blue colored earrings, and a white and powder blue dress.

Rei was a noted to be kind and loving person, as evident by her affection towards both her daughter and to her husband under the alias of "Tsukihiko". She was confused at Tanjiro's behavior and attire and became frightened by the sudden appearance and attack of a demon , showing that as a normal civilian, she had no knowledge of the ancient war happening between demons and Demon Slayers .
She lived blissfully unaware from the fact that she was the fake wife of a horrendously monstrous being.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Rokuro had the appearance of an older man with a stocky build and pale skin that was decorated with black, vein-like patterns down his face, arms and legs. He had long, dark purple hair that he left down, and a short, jagged beard around his jawline, as well as golden, cat-like eyes, with the kanji for Lower ( 下 , Ka ? ) and the daiji for Two ( 弐 , Ni ? ) was etched onto his left eye, which signified his position.
He wore what appeared to be a dark cyan version of a typical karate gi.

As with most demons, Rokuro greatly respected and feared Muzan Kibutsuji as his leader. After almost every Lower Ranks had been killed by the Demon King, Rokuro was visibly scared that the same would happen to him and resorted to begging his leader for more blood to increase his strength so he wouldn’t die, showing quite a somewhat cowardly demeanor. However, in spite of this, Rokuro appeared to be very confident in the potential of his abilities as a demon , since he claimed that if he received just a little more of Muzan's blood he could definitely become a strong fighter worthy of being in the ranks of the Twelve Kizuki , which showed he had a great resolve and passion for his role.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Like the rest of his family, Rokuta has light skin and dark red eyes along with white pupils. He wears his black hair in a bowl-cut and wears a blue kimono with white diamond patterns, checkered pants and white socks.

While not much of his personality is known other than him acting like a typical toddler, Rokuta seems to have a good relationship with his parents and siblings.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Rui was a boy of short stature and small physical build. His skin was solid white, with red dots appearing at several spots on his face, located above his eyes where his eyebrows are supposed to be, below his left eyelid, ending above his nose, and finally a vertical one running the length of his right cheek. His hair was white and bore resemblance to spider legs. The sclera of his eyes was dark red, while his irises were white, having teal colored eyelashes. Due to holding the position of Lower Rank Five, Rui had the kanji of Lower ( 下 , Ka ? ) and daiji for Five ( 伍 , Go ? ) engraved into his left eye, signifying his ranking. His right eye on the other hand had three pupils, with one large one in the center, and two smaller ones to the right and left of the center pupil
He wore a white, oversized kimono that had spider webs etched on the sleeves and the expanse of the hem, which also possessed a loose collar, decorated with the same dot-like markings as his face, and a dark red obi belt around his waist. He also wore a plain, white juban underneath, and was barefoot. His nails bore the same color of his eyelashes.
As a human, he possessed normal black hair styled with the same spider-like hairstyle, as well as bright blue eyes. He heavily resembled his human father. He wore the same white kimono and paired it with a dull brown haori and a pair of wooden sandals.

Rui was a quasi-calm, aloof and somewhat polite individual, rarely raising his voice, and talking to anyone, demon or Demon Slayer, with a reasonable tone and vocabulary, though his low and guttural way of speaking seems to imply repressed anger and annoyance. Every time he spoke with Tanjiro Kamado during their initial duel, he remained somewhat civil in speech.
Despite this stark difference in demeanor when compared to most demons, Rui  still had the cruelty that most demons possessed, and was actually a disturbed individual who desired the close bonds that a family had and expected family members to perform their own roles. In spite of his yearn to experience a familial bond, his vision of attaining one was incredibly twisted and founded on nothing but fear of him, instilled through repeated abuse on his fellow kin, which he did with unrepentant sadism. To him, "family members" who do not perform their roles as he expected them to (namely to protect Rui unconditionally or follow his every instructions) were worthless and as good as dead.
Well aware of his great power, he was incredibly authoritarian and cruel, having no qualms about abusing others or killing members of his own "family" by stringing them up and leaving them to be burned by the sun when they go against his wishes. In addition, according a demon that he had recruited to be his sister, another punishment for disobedience was having their intellect taken from them, a punishment possibly given to his brutish and animalistic " father ". Because of his strength, he tended to act almighty and confident, although this arrogance, while hardly unfounded, did not blind him to potential threats to his life, as seen when he decided to behead himself to escape Tanjiro's attack. Furthermore, he seemed to be fully aware that all his efforts to create a "family" to feel a bond have been in vain, most evident when he saw the bond between Tanjiro and Nezuko Kamado ; he denounced his family and claimed that none of them have ever reach or lived to his expectations, as well as lashing out at his "sister" for simply trying to speak.

Rui's unstable nature.

Because of this, Rui was incredibly sensitive to the subject of family and was furious when Tanjiro pointed out the more than evident toxicity of the bonds forged between his "family." This angered him to the point that he demanded that Tanjiro retract himself and his words and threatened to kill him if he did not comply. This stance contrasted heavily with his desire to have Nezuko for himself as his sister after witnessing her selfless act of shielding Tanjiro from his threads, becoming obsessed with the idea of developing a bond with her, albeit still through fear and torture. This contrarian behavior was further evidence to Rui's delusions, mental insanity, and emotional instability.
Following his close call with Tanjiro's fatal attempt to kill him and during his battle with Giyu Tomioka , Rui's collected and calm demeanour fractures, becoming visibly angry to know that Tanjiro would have killed him if he hadn't beheaded himself and denouncing the Demon Slayer Corps as a constant annoyance to his goals. His pride in his strength also faltered when he witnesses the Water Hashira repel his strongest threads, desperately trying again before he is beheaded.

Rui begging for his parents' forgiveness.

Aware of the actions he performed throughout his life, Rui was haunted with the knowledge that he himself was the one to sever his bonds with his family. In death, as his life flashed before him, he conceded that everything he had done towards his one goal was futile and he lamented his inability to apologize to his parents for killing them. Resigning himself to his fate in Hell, the unexpected appearance of his parents and their acknowledgement that they would unconditionally love him and forgive him of his actions caused Rui to break down in tears, hugging them tightly and begging for their forgiveness, showing that Lower Five was simply a boy who was forced into a inconceivably harsh fate, corrupted and anguished by his failure to see a true love he once possessed.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Ruka was a young woman with defined facial features, such as her sharp nose, long eyebrows, and pale complexion. She had large dark red eyes with circular white pupils, similar in appearance to the Kamado family, and a small mouth, with semi-long black hair tied loosely at the end in a ponytail.
She was only seen wearing a traditional kimono in a series of flashbacks.

As opposed to her husband Shinjuro's loud and brash personality, Ruka was depicted as being wise, gentle and graceful. In the manga, she was seen having strong morals, teaching Kyojuro the importance of his life and the need to use his strength in order to protect the weak and helpless people in the world as his primal duty. [2]
Later, her husband speculated that their two sons have wonderful personalities mainly because of her biological influence before she passed away, musing both boys were more like her than like him despite appearances.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sabito was a fair-skinned young man with a large scar running from the right corner of his mouth to his right ear, and kind, cat-like eyes of a grayish lavender color, a horizontal bar of much paler purple visible across them near the bottom. He had thick, spiked, peach-colored hair of varying lengths, the longest reaching his shoulders, that he wore messily down with side micro bangs over the left of his forehead.
Sabito wore a green kimono , patterned with a geometric hexagon design of yellow and a darker green, tied off at the waist with a piece of black fabric, below which he sported a pair of tattsuke-hakama pants and over which a plain white haori . Around his calves, he wore a pair of kyahan , that bore the same design as his kimono, which his pants were tucked into, as well as black tabi socks and a pair of zōri on his feet. As with the rest of Sakonji Urokodaki 's apprentices, Sabito's white warding mask , hand-carved by his master himself, took the shape of a fox's face, his decorated by a large scar in the same place as the one on his face. The mask's eyes and nose were of a dark green while the ears were more of a gray-red, and it was secured around his face by a thick piece of red rope around his head, the ends of which hung down from behind each of his ears.

Sabito was a serious young man who believed that all of his actions should be becoming of a man. He was seen as a ruthless mentor during his time training Tanjiro Kamado , who was always quick to point out his flaws and refused to acknowledge him as a man. When asked about defeating the Hand Demon , Sabito appeared to have a pessimistic view on conflicts, saying he believed that no matter how hard someone tries it will never be enough to take the beast down.
Even so, Sabito entrusted his will to Tanjiro and was happy when he surpassed him as Sakonji's strongest student, openly acknowledging that Tanjiro was the toughest of them all and proudly leaving the lingering will of all Sakonji's lost children to him.
According to Sabito's best friend Giyu Tomioka , he was a very kind boy with a strong sense of justice, back when he was still alive. It is implied that Sabito was a selfless person, as seen in Giyu's flashback, when it is revealed he saved everyone in his group from the Hand Demon during his Final Selection , sacrificing himself in the process.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Saburo's hair is curbed. He has an oblong forehead and sharp brown eyes with no distinct pupils.

Saburo possesses sharp discernment. He also displays sincerity towards young Tanjiro , willing to offer him his own house to take rest in for a night because he believes man-eating demons will come out during the night and it would be unsafe for travel.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sakonji is a reasonably tall elderly man, as noted by the countless number of students he has trained, along with his silver-colored hair. His face has never once been revealed or depicted throughout the entire completed manga; he is always seen wearing a tengu mask that covers his entire face although Tanjiro states through a Taisho Secret that Sakonji's face is very gentle and calm.
He is always seen wearing a cloud-patterned jinbei kimono with navy colored pants which are fastened at his shins by white kyahan guards. He also wears traditional black tabi socks, and sandals similar to Tanjiro, except his sandals have blue straps. On the occasions when Sakonji travels, he wears a white cloth that covers his head and wraps around his neck.
When he was younger, his hair was black and fashioned into a topknot.

As a trainer and former Demon Slayer, Sakonji is pragmatic, strict, and vigilant, while simultaneously sympathetic and understanding. When first meeting Tanjiro, he was quick to criticize him for his weak resolve and innate kindness, harshly telling him the solution to when Nezuko eats someone is to kill her and then himself. He possessed a no-nonsense demeanour while training Tanjiro, repeatedly kicking, beating, and harshly instructing him to get his bearings together and get things quickly and properly; he even began to utilize traps armed with knives and spikes when Tanjiro began to improve his descent of his mountain. That said, he became incredibly proud of the Demon Slayer he would become.

Sakonji embraces Tanjiro after he returns.

As a cultivator who had lost so many student over the years, Sakonji was haunted by his association with the Hand Demon, realizing it had been the demon to kill his past 13 students. He flatly told Tanjiro that he had no intention of sending him to Final Selection and believed the giant boulder he had set on the boy was too big to cut. Taken aback by his student's accomplishment, he hugged him and told him to come home. Upon seeing that Tanjiro would indeed return from Final Selection, Sakonji embraced him and cried in relief. He also commended him for being the one to kill the Hand Demon.
He showed great dedication to Nezuko, attempting, and successfully, to implant suggestions within her to protect humans and kill demons. He wrote to Kagaya Ubuyashiki his belief that Nezuko was completely able to withstand her hunger of humans, even putting his own life on the line by promising to commit suicide should the occasion ever arise.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sanehiro greatly resembles his ancestor Sanemi, possessing his spiky white hair and large, pale purple eyes. He has several scars after arresting someone who was wielding a knife. [1]
He wears a blue police officer uniform and cap with a circular golden pendent on the front.

Sanehiro is shown to take after his ancestor Sanemi in personality; being rather abrasive, hot-blooded, and stubborn, often times impulsive and quick to lash out.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sanemi is a tall man of very muscular build, with spiky long white hair and large almond-shaped eyes framed with long eyelashes; his purple irises also appear to have dark swirls within them. When angered, they appear notably bloodshot. He also has dark patches beneath his eyes, making him appear perpetually tired or restless. His face and body are covered with scars, accrued over his many years of fighting demons. He cuts his hair short somewhere in between the events of the Hashira meeting and the Mugen Train incident . He is usually seen wearing a crazed expression on his face.
He wears a black standard Demon Slayer uniform, tinted dark green in the anime, unbuttoned to expose his chest and abs with a white long sleeved haori over it with the kanji for kill ( 殺 , satsu ? ) etched on the back, white buckles around his shins and tabi socks with a pair of white zōri with green straps.
During his battle with Kokushibo, he loses his right index and middle fingers. [3]

Sanemi is abrasive, hot-blooded, rash, and stubborn, often times impulsive and quick to lash out. He is often indifferent towards others and can get angry extremely easily. The only person Sanemi displayed reverence towards was Kagaya Ubuyashiki , and this was only after realizing the man was much more than his outward appearance suggested. Sanemi has also displayed a hunger for battle, wishing that he could encounter Upper Rank demons and proclaiming his excitement in fighting Upper Rank One, Kokushibo .
Sanemi's cold, rude, and dismissive behavior is the result of losing too many people he cared about in the past. Later, when he sees those people who have passed, such as his mother, he can't help but give her a smile to be able to see her again. When Genya joins the Demon Slayers in search of him, Sanemi repeatedly dismisses and lashes out during any chance of seeing him, but Tanjiro Kamado is able to tell Sanemi didn't truly hate him; and in fact still bore the same brotherly love he had for him in childhood. This was however never expressed outwardly as he tried to push Genya away from him and the Demon Slayers so he wouldn't be exposed to danger.

Sanemi's dismissive behavior toward demons.

Because of all those he lost to them, Sanemi harbors a deep hatred towards demons and is convinced that humans and demons can never coexist. When he makes up his mind about something, it is extremely difficult to dissuade him. He did not believe Tanjiro's insistence that Nezuko Kamado wouldn't eat humans and even moves to prove his own point by stabbing through the box with Nezuko inside. [4] After riling her up, he slashes his own arm to try and bait her into attacking him due to his rare blood's effect. Even after she doesn't, and Kagaya uses this as proof Nezuko won't attack humans, Sanemi doesn't truly accept the Kamado siblings.

Sanemi showing his mellowed side after the final battle.

Tanjiro is ultimately right about Sanemi. Despite his poor treatment of his brother, Genya, Sanemi truly did love and care for his brother, admitting that he blames himself for not protecting him. He even expresses that he wished that Genya would settle down and have a family. Following the battle with Upper Rank One, Sanemi shows not only great anger and a certain emptiness towards Muzan, but more cooperation with the likes of Giyu, someone he clearly did not get along with in the past. Even when Sanemi is launched out of the battle against Muzan, he displays undeniable courage and determination, like his fellow Hashira.
When the showdown with Muzan is finally over and time has passed, Sanemi has clearly mellowed out a bit. He is able to smile with Giyu, even after their past confrontations. Most surprisingly, he admits his mistakes and apologizes to Nezuko about his actions. It goes to the point he gives her a smile and a pat on the head, as he sees Genya in the way she responds.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Satoko was a young girl with black hair, parted at her forehead with short bangs framing her face. Her hair was partially tied with a large, dark pink ribbon on the back of her head.
Satoko wore a magenta-and-white-patterned kimono tied with a mauve-colored obi and zōri . Before she was kidnapped, she was seen carrying a decorated pouch.

Not much is known about Satoko's personality, but it appears she had a cheerful attitude seen when she pleasantly laughed while talking with her fiancé. [1]


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sayo has black, short hair styled in a blunt bob with a fringe. During her time at the temple, she typically adorned herself in a traditional light-pink kimono embellished with delicate floral patterns. Like the older children, she did not wear any shoes.

Not much is known about Sayo, other than that she likely behaved like a typical toddler. However, she was shown to be particularly selfless and kind as shown when she offers Gyomei her fish dinner after seeing the the monk himself was not eating, worriedly pointing out his thin physique. [2] In the present, Sayo gained the maturity to retroactively realize her disjointed testimony led to Gyomei's arrest, and that caused her to regret her words.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Senjuro has a similar appearance to his brother, Kyojuro Rengoku , and father, Shinjuro Rengoku , possessing unruly golden hair that flares out around his face, becoming red near the ends above his ears and shoulders, that he wears messily tied back behind his head. He has fair skin and large, gold eyes that redden near the pupils, that are slanted inwards and shaped so as to give him a determined yet kind appearance.
Senjuro wears a plain white yukata and juban with darker umanori-styled hakama pants. In Kyojuro Rengoku's memory dream in the Mugen Train, he wore a dark haori above his white yukata.

Senjuro is originally seen to be very sad and rattled by his brother's death and his father's verbal abuse, but, after spending some time talking to Tanjiro Kamado , his true personality as a kind, caring individual who can usually see the best in a situation or person shines through. He has hope for his future, and even though he knows that by not becoming a Demon Slayer he has broken his family's ancient tradition, he knows that his older brother, Kyojuro, would forgive him for leaving such a scar on their history. [2]


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

As a child, Senri looked identical to his older brother, with the only differences being bangs that parted down the middle and a different colored kimono. In addition, he is shown to wear an angered glare with eyebags, reflecting his resentful personality.

While not much is known about Senri, it can be assumed that he was a particularly resentful and depressed individual, unlike his patient and kind elder brother. He lamented his short life span and refused to wear women's clothing, as was tradition in the Ubuyashiki family to stall the familiar curse. His mental state became worse following the suicide of his father and caused him to be very volatile, frequently cursing at his brother and mother. He eventually became hateful enough to decide to burn the Ubuyashiki Mansion to commit suicide and force his younger brother Akito to join with him.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

The Serpent Demon has long black hair that reached past her shoulders, yellow eyes with thin slitted pupils similar to a snake, a wide fanged mouth stretching from ear to ear, and vein-like patterns around her eyes. Her long tongue was forked at the end and she had sharp nails on her hands. Her upper torso had three violet lines alongside the oblique of her chest. The lower half of her body was that of a traditional snake, with an elongated legless body covered in brown scales.
The Serpent Demon wore nothing but a gold necklace imbedded with various jewels and four larges pearls.

As with most demons, the Serpent Demon was extremely cruel and murderous towards humans. [1] Notably, she had a disturbing preference towards eating children, especially infants, and requested them regularly as her favorite meal. Her sadistic pleasure in her choice of prey was also reflected when she deemed Obanai as something worthy to satisfy her, ordering that he be allowed to grow up before she could eat him, even having his mouth sliced open to look like her.
The Serpent Demon was arguably smarter than the average demon as she developed a contractual relationship with humans, which in turn gave her a safe feeding ground to eat in, a steady food supply of her favorite type of meal and a place to hide from both sunlight and Demon Slayers for decades completely undetected. Nonetheless, she paid no heed to their mistake of letting Obanai escape and killed nearly all of her worshippers before pursuing Obanai.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Shigeru was young boy with light complexion and dark red eyes with white pupils, just like the rest of his family. His black hair was worn as a buzz cut.
Shigeru wore a light green and black patterned kimono with a light green haori over it and a white nagajuban under everything.

Shigeru appears to be very fond of his brother, Tanjiro Kamado , wanting to follow him wherever he goes and do whatever he does. Like his siblings, he is upset when Tanjiro and his mother tells him he cannot go to town with him.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Shimamoto is a male with short messy spiky black hair and an x-shape scar on his right face.

Not much is known about his personality, but he is impressed by the Hashira's skills.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Shinjuro strongly resembles his sons, Kyojuro Rengoku and Senjuro Rengoku , possessing unruly orange hair that flares out around his face, becoming redder near the ends above his ears, that he wears messily tied back behind his head. He has fair skin, bushy black eyebrows and bright, orange eyes that redden near the pupils, that are slanted inwards and shaped so as to give him a furious appearance.
Shinjuro wears a traditional kimono robe. When he was the Flame Hashira, he also wore the haori with flame-like ridges at the end that Kyojuro wore when he was the Flame Hashira. In the Infinity Castle Arc , he is shown with a katana with a flame guard similar to Kyojuro's, with what appears to be a flame pattern on the sheath.

Shinjuro is a very short-tempered man, especially when regarding the Demon Slayer Corps and his son, Kyojuro, with the mention of either causing him to grow furious. He appears to be abusive, harshly insulting the recently deceased Kyojuro and knocking Senjuro to the ground during his fight with Tanjiro. He is also an alcoholic - his first action upon awaking after being knocked out by Tanjiro is to buy alcohol, and he is often seen drinking with sake .
Shinjuro possesses feelings of inferiority, which stemmed from reading the chronicles of the past Flame Hashira, where Sun Breathing is described as the original and most powerful breathing style. He mocked the other styles as "cheap imitations" of Sun Breathing and accused Tanjiro of coming to their residence to mock them for his superiority, after recognizing his Hanafuda earrings.
However, it is later revealed that Shinjuro truly cared for Kyojuro despite what he said to Tanjiro, and the memory of Kyojuro causes Shinjuro to begin breaking down in tears.
He later defends Kiriya and the rest of the Ubuyashiki Family with Tengen Uzui and vows to follow Kyojuro's example and not to bring shame to the Rengoku family.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Shinobu is a petite young woman with a slender and short build and a fairly pale complexion. She has large eyes that lack pupils, only a haze of gradient purple, making her eyes appear similar to those of insects. She has very short raven-black wavy hair that fades into dark purple at the ends, styled at the back of her head into a flat yakai-maki bun, fastened with a white, turquoise and light purple butterfly ornament. She has center-split, ear-length, voluminous curtain bangs that flow down to frame the sides of her face, with two slightly thinner chin-length locks of hair in front of her ears below them. She stands out among the more physically imposing Hashira due to her diminutive stature and small frame, which is later reinforced by her mentioning that she does not possess enough physical strength to decapitate a demon as the others do. According to Zenitsu , Shinobu is so cute that she could make a living on her looks alone.
Shinobu wears a dark purple tinted standard Demon Slayer uniform, consisting of a button-up jacket with golden buttons, stand collar, and long sleeves, having the kanji for "Destroy" engraved on the back, a shirt pocket on top of the left breast, matching the dark purple color of her tabi socks and her long saggy tattsuke hakama pants, that is wrapped by a pair of white butterfly-patterned Kyahan fading into a pale turquoise to pink shade around her lower legs, fastened with white ribbons. Over her uniform, she wears a white haori that previously belonged to her older sister , which has a butterfly wing pattern, specially that of a Monarch Butterfly , that fades into a pale turquoise then pink color gradient on the sleeves and hem which are cuffed with a black and white dotted trim. She wears white zōri sandals with purple straps for footwear; she conceals a hidden blade in the right sandal.
When Shinobu was fourteen, her appearance was altered slightly. Her chin-length strands of hair in front of her ears were tucked in, and she had a different Demon Slayer uniform consisting of silver buttons and cloth a darker shade of purple. She also sported a plain white haori over it.

Shinobu displays a bright, friendly and cheerful demeanor, always having an easygoing smile on her face regardless of the situation she is in. However, her outward behavior is shown very quickly to be a façade. This is displayed in the way she enjoys teasing others, to the point of being rather sadistic about it, enjoying most notably to pick on Giyu Tomioka . [4] Despite her relaxed exterior and her initial claim of wanting to get along with demons , she can be rather cruel towards them, which is seen when she kills Daughter after giving her false hope of helping her, and immediately attempting to kill Nezuko Kamado without giving Tanjiro Kamado a chance to prove that she was harmless to humans. [5] Later on, she is shown to have a more compassionate side towards both Tanjiro and his sister after hearing their full story. [6]

Shinobu's true personality displayed during her battle with Doma.

It is later revealed that her outwardly calm and tranquil disposition is worn as a mask, as Shinobu holds an intense hatred for demons due to the loss of her sister, Kanae Kocho , at a young age, along with the deaths of her parents, almost all of her Tsuguko , and the families of her apprentices at the Butterfly Mansion . This hatred is so strong that she is in a near-constant state of extreme anger, [7] which is sensed by Tanjiro Kamado when the two individuals hold a conversation. Her desire for revenge rendered her unable to live the normal life her sister had wished upon her, instead devoting the entirety of her energy to defeating demons. [8]
During her battle against Doma , Shinobu reveals that she also suffers from an inferiority complex due to her inferior physical abilities compared to her fellow Hashira, having been jealous of them for possessing taller or more muscular bodies than her and cursing her own body for not developing further to make her more effective in combat. [9]

Shinobu's original, bolder and blunter disposition.

Shinobu's younger self had a more brash, blunt and uncomplicated demeanor as seen when she and her sister rescued Kanao Tsuyuri , who she had a pointedly negative attitude towards raising. After the death of Kanae, however, Shinobu began to outwardly behave more like her sister and eventually developed her positive attitude and mannerisms to match while internally holding in her rage, which she later clarifies is fueled by her desire to continuously display the smile that her sister favored. Though never shown onscreen, Shinobu has a notable temper, namely in the way that makes even the loud and brash Inosuke Hashibira take notice.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Shizu was a petite woman with a small and dainty frame [1] Her black hair was fastened in a low bun with her bangs clipped back on the crown of her head. She also had a very small face with large blue round eyes. Shizu wore a white juban underneath her horizontally stripped yellow kimono, and had a black obi tied around her waist.
As a demon, she possessed noticeable fangs and sharpened nails, but otherwise appeared the same as whilst she was human except for her hair being down.
Shizu as a demon. Shizu as a demon (Manga).

Shizu was described as a hard worker who would work from "morning until night" and hardly slept. [2] Despite being in an abusive marriage, and having a small frame, she would always shield her children from her husband Kyogo 's abuse and was considered a "hero" to them. [1]
In the afterlife, even when she was unable to control herself as a demon, Shizu could not stand to be with the children she unwillingly killed and reserved herself to her fate in Hell, though she seemed appreciative when Sanemi did not hesitate to go with her.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Shoichi is a short young boy of around 8-10, with black spiky hair and hazel eyes with a thick black border.
Shoichi wears a blue haori over a light green iromuji kimono with a white juban under it.

While his personality is not fully elaborated on, one can assume he is a loyal brother as he decides to follow his older brother to rescue him after he was kidnapped by a demon . He has also shown a protective side while interacting with his younger sister. It can be surmised that Shoichi is braver than average, as he decides to follow the two Demon Slayers, Tanjiro and Zenitsu, into the Drum House. Even when separated from the others with Zenitsu, he shows more courage than the Thunder Breathing user.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Shuya was a young boy of small stature and fair skin tone. His dark hair was shaved down and he had large purple almond-shaped eyes. He bore a resemblance with his two oldest brothers Sanemi and Genya.
Shuya wore a tan colored kimono with a two-tone black and light brown obi.

Shuya, like his siblings, was a warm and caring child. He loved his mother dearly, who, in return, would often protect him from his father's abuse on multiple occasions. When he awoke to find she had not come home late at night, he waited til she came home and eagerly ran to greet her at the door when Shizu did arrive, though it would sadly cost his life.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Slasher was a bald middle-aged man of a fairly muscular build and very pale skin. His eyes had a lime green iris, a black sclera and vertical slits for pupils, and he had sharp pointed nails that are dark blue in color and several prominent fangs in his mouth. Most prominently, Slasher's whole body was covered in dark blue tattoos, running across various places on his face, limbs and torso. These tattoos light up and glow blue when he uses his Blood Demon Art . He also wore a sleeveless blue shirt and black leggings complete with tabi socks and a pair of zōri with blue straps. Slasher was usually seen with a maniacal expression on his face.

Like most demons, Slasher was a ruthless individual that only seems to care about murdering and eating humans, He also was shown having a sadistic and malicious side, off-handedly mentioning he slashed a woman till he became bored and when he dug his claws into a young boy . He was also shown to be quite arrogant at times, looking down on the Flame Hashira , Kyojuro Rengoku and boasting his speed in front of him as well as challenging him to a duel twice. However, Slasher was not above using underhanded tactics like taking a hostage to win against Kyojuro.
Slasher was also rather petty, trying to find whatever means to provoke Kyojuro and growing further frustrated and more aggressive when the young man both held his ground, retorted back and even stopped his murders.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Daughter appeared as a girl of slight build in her early teens. Her most notable traits were the spider-like features she shared with her "family". She had snowy white, pale skin, and a small, sharp-featured, white face patterned by red dots. Her eyes are white, and her silvery eyeballs distinguish them from her white sclera, fringed by pale teal-colored lashes. She also had long, snowy white hair tied into two loose tails, one above each shoulder. They are tied by ribbons decorated by a large turquoise/teal bead each. She usually wore an aloof expression on her face.
Daughter's clothing consisted of a long white kimono and a dark blue hexagon-patterned juban underneath. She wore ribbons in her hair that were decorated with a large blue bead, and unlike her other "family members", who were barefoot, she wore black slippers.
Daughter's original appearance as a demon was completely different than her current, having morphed and changed her features due to being forced by Rui as a condition to be accepted into his family. Her original appearance was that of a teen demon with black hair, slitted cat-like eyes and pale grayish skin.

Daughter is shown to be the most cautious within her "family," having instead opted to observe and stand back rather than jump right into the battle against Demon Slayers. She is also shown to be very cowardly, both with battling against the Demon Slayer Corps and dealing with her family's internal conflict. When her "mother" was being violently abused and reprimanded by Rui and her " father ," she stood back and gave her the same severe glare due to her weakness instead of helping her. She again shows her cowardice by trying to convince Rui to run instead to fight after most of their family was defeated, which enrages him and leads him to wound her.
In truth, Daughter loathes and hates her "family" and began to think that she would have likely done better on her own. She believes that the rest of her family are fools for playing along with Rui, despite him not having any real emotional attachment or care for any of them, though she seems aware that not going along with Rui's desire's is dangerous. Whatever the case, Daughter did make a point of staying in Rui's good books, even going so far as to deliberately set up another 'Sister' of the Spider Family.
She even went as far as attempting to use sympathy and pity on Shinobu Kocho , knowing that she was a Demon Slayer, by pleading that she was forced into her situation by Rui . However, this contradicts her actions as she went through various lengths to stay with him and his family, revealing that she only does what is convenient for her own survival, and took clear enjoyment out of killing humans.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Physically, Father was the most formidable of his "family", possessing great height and a powerfully built physique. His skin was dark brown with the same red, dot-like design extending from his shoulders reaching down to his arms as other members of his family. Like his " wife " and "children," Father also had white hair reminiscent of Rui, although his was much longer, reaching down across his shoulders. His most unique trait was his monstrous face; unlike his "family's" more humanoid appearance, his face was identical to that of a true spider, with several eyes and large pincers for a mouth.
When he moulted, he gained green skin with blade-like protrusions sticking out of his arms and legs. He lost all his hair and obtained sharper teeth and more pronounced mandibles. He also gained five spikes going upwards on his forehead. Finally, one of the most notable changes was that the number of his eyes doubled from nine, to eighteen.

Father was animalistic, aggressive and extremely bloodthirsty. He was shown to be very devoted to his "family", as when he battled Tanjiro Kamado and Inosuke Hashibira , he repeatedly told them to stay away from his family while attempting to kill the duo. He served as the main protector and was seen being on the lookout for the Demon Slayers when they came to Mount Natagumo . However, he was also shown to be very abusive towards his "wife," having repeatedly slashed and physically abused her in the past without even stating his reasons for doing so due to her being weaker than to what they originally expected of her. Father was additionally shown to have been unquestioningly loyal to Rui, having never once challenged or defied him.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Mother was very similar in appearance to her "son" Rui , having the same solid white skin, teal eyelashes and nails, and circular, red facial markings. She also possesses a short and curvaceous physique. Additionally, she had bushy eyebrows and long, white hair parted down the middle of her face which was tied with teal orbs into two, thick strands.
Mother wore a lengthy, layered kimono — maroon on the inside layer and white on the outside layer — that exposed part of her chest and was tied with a patterned obi. She also donned a beaded necklace composed of teal and purple orbs and decorative anklets. Like almost every other member of the Spider Family, she also goes barefoot and has black nail polish on her toenails; the lower front of the kimono is open, exposing her legs.
However, it was revealed that this was not Mother's true appearance, as her body was altered to look like Rui's. Her original appearance was completely different from her transformed one, with a much smaller, childlike body compared to her new, more voluptuous figure. Her skin was marked with two maroon lines on each of her cheeks and her eyes were rounder with yellow irises and x-shaped pupils. She also wore her short, black hair parted to the side with bangs framing her face and two, low pigtails.

Like most demons, Mother was cruel, unfeeling, and murderous towards humans. She ruthlessly controlled dozens of Demon Slayers through her threads and manipulated them into killing each other. She was also rather sadistic and callous, uncaring that her manipulation brought them prolonged suffering. In spite of this, spending time with Rui's family caused her developed an intense fear for him and Father , both of whom had abused her for being weaker than expected. This abuse was severe enough to make her embrace death instead of having to continue on knowing that both Rui and Father would continue to torment her.
In Mother's final moments, she seemed to have regained some of her feelings and memories as a human and seemed to have been genuinely touched by Tanjiro's kindness, thanking him for giving peace by warning him that a Twelve Kizuki was on the mountain, wishing him to be careful in her last moments.
It was later revealed that compared to the rest of her "family", she was technically the youngest demon of the family (her original appearance being that of a young girl) and was still coping with her previous human feelings and memories, which caused her to cry and grieve many times when remembering them. Due to this she became a target of severe reprimand from Rui, due to her inability to be a proper "Mother" to her "Children", who were all technically older than her.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Son takes the form of a giant spider possessing a human head. His face, like Mother and Daughter , had the same facial features of red dots, white skin and hair similar to his "younger brother" Rui , with the only difference being that his eyes possess dark red scleras, with blue irises and black pupils.

Son was shown to be sadistic and cruel, as seen in the flashbacks of Mother's memories when he openly taunted and enjoyed the physical and verbal abuse she was being put through by Rui and Father , while addressing them formally as his parents, showing that he sadistically enjoyed playing the part of being in a "family". Similarly to Father, he was extremely loyal to Rui's cause and played his role as an elder brother in his family without question.
Like most demons, he hated humans; he was responsible for a great number of people transforming into spiders and even ruled over them, making them servants when their mental intellect eventually faded away with their transformation. His taunting and prideful nature was also evident when he continually prodded and mocked Zenitsu Agatsuma over his impending fate as a spider.
Son was also shown to be arrogant and brash, openly insulting his attacker's ability to do just one form and becoming enraged at the thought of dying at the hands of someone he thought so lowly of. In spite of his pride and confidence in himself, he became fearful upon seeing Zenitsu's true power being used and desperately tried to flee back into his house.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Suma is a young woman of short height and with shoulder-length black hair, short bangs, and blue eyes. Similar to the other wives of Tengen Uzui , she sports a shapely figure.
Suma wears a short, blue, sleeveless dress than show her sides of her hips reaching her upper thighs with a plunging  white neckline that exposes her cleavage, which is secured with a gray obi where she probably stores her kunai . She wears gray ankle-length tabi socks and white zōri with blue straps.
When retired, Suma wears a more modest version of her usual dress that covers her legs. She also tied her hair into a ponytail.

Suma's personality is particularly similar to Zenitsu Agatsuma 's, expressing overdramatic and exaggerated emotions in practically every situation she's in. She also tends to give off a fearful and unconfident attitude when it comes to dangerous situations, as well as a tendency to cry easily, whether due to receiving praise or from fear when being near a demon. She tends to acts immature, arguing with her two co-wives  (Makio in particular) and generally irritating them whenever she gets fussy or emotional.
Despite this, she remains a loyal and loving wife to Tengen and cared for the people around her, leading the evacuation of Yoshiwara alongside Makio when the battle between the Upper Rank demons and Demon Slayers became more intense. Her love for Tengen is also prominently displayed when she forgoes her shy and unconfident demeanor and angrily scolded Nezuko Kamado for "cremating" her husband early, later wailing in relief when the poison inside him was burned away.

Suma's much more cheerful demeanor post-retirement.

Outside of combat, in her retired life, Suma is shown to be much more cheerful and relaxed. As she assists Tengen in his section of Hashira Training by serving as a cook, she is prone to way less emotional outbursts, instead happily serving meals, gossiping with her co-wives, and getting amused at Tengen harshly reprimanding the trainees, knowing that his harsh words come from a place of worry. [2] However, she can still slip back into her notorious emotional personality, as shown when she heavily dotes on Nezuko in the wake of the final battle, and cries to Tengen when Makio strikes her for it.
Like her co-wives, Suma has a soft spot for Tanjiro, due to his monumental aid in the Entertainment District, offering him kind words during his training, and wishing the best for him in his battle against Muzan. [2]


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sumi was a girl of small frame and light skin tone. She had dark colored hair that was fastened in a low bun with her bangs clipped back on the crown of her head. She also had a very small face with large, blue round eyes. Sumi bore a great resemblance to her mother.
She wore a long light red kimono with an orange obi.

Sumi was a warm and caring child, much like the rest of her siblings. During one of her father's violent outbursts, she blocked her youngest sibling's view in order to prevent him from seeing it. She loved her mother dearly and was worried for her wellbeing when she was late to come home, noting that she had never done so before. Strangely enough though, despite her virtuous qualities, her elder brother Genya claims that although she was kind and considerate of their mother, she was also "a spoiled brat". [1] It's unknown if Genya meant this in a tounge-in-cheek way or if Sumi was actually temperamental or coddled as a young child.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sumihiko is a young man with short, ruffled black hair with burgundy tips, that he wears combed back, a few stray tufts falling down over his forehead. He has wide, dark red eyes with white pupils that appear lighter around the lower section of his irises. Overall, his appearance bears a strong resemblance to that of his ancestor Tanjiro Kamado .
Sumihiko wears his high school's uniform, consisting of a pale blue dress shirt with a sleeveless, white v-neck cardigan worn over the top, and plain black pants. He wears a black necktie around his neck, as well as a pair of dark brown dress shoes.

Sumihiko takes after Tanjiro in terms of personality as well as appearance, as he too is kind and cheerful by nature, smiling and talking happily to his friend Tojuro as they run together. He also appears to be rather sleepy, not waking up when Kanata tried to get him up for school and implying he's slept in and been late numerous times, as well as being shown to be yawning on the cover page. He appears to be rather athletic, countering his brother 's noted skill in more academic subjects, as he was seen jumping down and off tall buildings and swinging himself from stairwells and railings on his run to school. [3]
Despite being somewhat clumsy, Sumihiko has respect for others, as, when he runs past a pair of older men playing shogi and a group of young girls, he turns back with an apologetic expression and says he is sorry for any disruption he had caused. [4]


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

She wears a grid-patterned pale purple kimono with a light pink obi and has no footwear.

Sumire as a baby (manga) Sumire as a baby (anime)

Sumire is usually happy and cheerful, always shown smiling, as is typical of a toddler. Being very young, she is curious, as shown when she approaches Yoriichi talking with her father and later watched him perform the moves of his Sun Breathing. According to Sumiyoshi, Sumire enjoys being lifted up and she squeals with joy when Yoriichi picks her up, since Yoriichi is much taller than Sumiyoshi. Despite her usual happy and cheery demeanor, she appears saddened when Yoriichi leaves them for the last time.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Sumiyoshi looked remarkably like an unscarred, older version of Tanjiro Kamado , possessing the same facial structure, eyes and hair type, although his hair was longer, about shoulder-length, and worn tied in a ponytail behind his head.
Their similarities continue into his attire, as Sumiyoshi wore a white nagajuban with a short, black-checkered kimono over it of an almost identical design to Tanjiro's usual haori, as well as a pair of light tobi pants. He finally sported white zōri with red straps, lacking any tabi socks .

In the short memory piece that Tanjiro received from his ancestor, it is shown that their personalities are very alike. Sumiyoshi, like Tanjiro, is shown to be kind, generous, honest, and humble individual.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Susamaru was a pale-skinned woman with bright yellow eyes with cat-like slits and white horizontal slats with black hair with orange-colored ends. Her hair was styled as bangs at the front.
Susamaru wore a pair of long silver earrings and an orange kimono that matched her hair. She had a black haori on top but took them both off when she entered her battle, revealing a small black sarashi that covers her chest and upper abdomen.
Although she normally had an average build, when fighting seriously, her body became noticeably more muscular. She could also grow two new pairs of arms as well.

Susamaru was shown to be rather playful, yet very brash and quite immature while almost always smiling and always enjoys and accepts a challenge. Her pet phrase is "what fun this is" and she will repeat this constantly if engaged in bouts she deems amusing. Her immaturity is a stark contrast to Yahaba 's seriousness.
She was fanatically loyal to Muzan Kibutsuji and battled to the best of her abilities in the hopes of killing Tanjiro Kamado and taking Tamayo hostage for her master. When the latter had denounced Muzan as a manipulative coward, she defended his honour and denied her statements vehemently.


Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba

Suyako was a petite young woman with long black hair, which appeared to curve in or be tied together below her shoulders, with two ear-length strands handing down on either side of her face.

Her attire consisted of a plain, pale purple-colored (pink in the anime) kimono and a piece of white cloth that she wore tied around the top of her head.

As seen by Tanjiro Kamado during his flashbacks, Suyako is a happy, [3] hardworking woman who was always doing the best she could for her children. [4] Upon seeing Yoriichi unexpectedly weeping as he hugged Sumire, her caring nature came forward and she told the swordsman she would feed him to cheer him up. Suyako's cheerful nature is also present when she would ask Yoriichi to perform his Sun Breathing forms, causing her to be delighted and fascinated by them.
