The new episode of the second season of anime Kimetsu no Yaiba (Demon Slayer) introduced one of its iconic villains called Gyutaro (妓夫太郎 Gyūtarō).
Who is oni Gyutaro
Gyutaro is a thin oni (demon) with pale skin, green hair, and orange eyes, and the Upper Moon is numbered Six. Gyutaro wears no shirt, wearing only pants and pieces of cloth that cover some parts of his body, in total being seven red, one on his neck and three on each arm.
Having lived a difficult life, Gyutaro became cruel and envious. While still in his human form, he worked as a debt collector in the Red Light District , making everyone fear him. His arrogance stems from his ability to fight and having killed several demon hunters throughout his life, some of whom were Hashira , the highest ranking demon hunter in the group. His protective side stems from the fact that his sister is his greatest pride. Gyutaro, even though he is a stronger demon than his sister Daki, prefers to stay by her side, to the point that they share the same body.
Gyotaro's Past
In the past, he survived numerous abuses from his mother, mocked for his voice, and starved himself and ate rats and insects to survive. Over time, Gyotaro became protective of his sister Ume , who shattered his sense of inferiority.
Techniques and Skills
Gyutaro possesses regenerative abilities Muzan 's blood . Able to manipulate his own cellular tissue, he can combine with his sister to increase his powers and become immune to death by decapitation. This is demonstrated when Daki is decapitated by Uzui, yet remains alive minutes after losing her head. His blood techniques involve the use of poisons, even managing to create enormous scythes.
Ultimately, we don't know if the anime will change the pace of the story.
Furthermore, the new season is being shown in Japan on Sundays and is being broadcast on Crunchyroll and Funimation here in Brazil.
