More About the Demon Slayer Hashiras – The Most Known

Giyu Tomioka: First, let's start with this guy who's quite famous in the anime . He's the pillar of water thanks to Urokodaki, meaning he also masters the same breathing technique as our protagonist. What's more, in his first appearance, he was the one who tried to kill Nezuko, but as the series progresses, Giyu also becomes one of the people most responsible for protecting her!
Shinobu Kocho: Now, let's talk about another character who gained considerable prominence while training and welcoming our heroes. Shinobu is the insect's pillar and has a rather confusing personality. Even though she exudes calm, she harbors a deep grudge. Finally, it's worth highlighting her pharmaceutical skills, which help her create cures and especially in combat.
Kyojuro Rengoku: Here, we see the pillar of fire who stood out in the Demon Slayer movie and now takes center stage in this second season. Thus, it's worth highlighting his energetic personality, as well as his sad past due to his father. Thus, he is undoubtedly one of the most beloved characters in the entire anime, but he died while facing a Higher Demon.
The Other Pillars
Muichiro Tokito: Now, let's meet the lesser-known Hunters in the anime. First, we have this guy who masters mist breathing and has an extremely laid-back personality. However, don't be fooled by his aloof demeanor, as he is certainly one of the strongest Hashiras in the anime, having become a pillar after just two months of training!
Tengen Uzui: The pillar of sound, he's very flamboyant and also has roots in a ninja family. Because of this, he and his brothers endured many hardships, but they ultimately became a great Hashira. He's also very caring and proud.
Gyomei Himejima: Here, we see another guy who achieved his position in just two months. Thus, he can be considered one of the strongest pillars, if not the strongest. Furthermore, he mastered stone breathing and stood out in the anime for always appearing crying and being blind! Even so, he developed super hearing and certainly shouldn't be underestimated.
Obanai Iguro: He's the snake pillar and always seems quite demanding of others. He developed snake breathing on his own and also has partially impaired vision. Incidentally, what's also striking is that he carries a snake with him.
Mitsuri Kanroji: And here we see the Hashira of love. She tirelessly searches for a husband to marry, but she's quite demanding, as she wants to find a man stronger than herself. On the other hand, she has a super sweet and cuddly personality, and she's also developed her own breathing.
Sanemi Shinazugawa: And finally, let's talk about the guy who mastered wind breathing. He's very aggressive and withdrawn, and he was the one who attacked Nezuko in front of everyone. So, it's quite common for us all to harbor a certain hatred for him. However, this cruel demeanor stems from the traumas of his past, not to mention that he's an extremely skilled Hashira.
