Who are the upper 6 rank demons? ›

Tanjiro's connection to Yoriichi is not through blood relation, but through their similar appearances, which is due to the divine nature of Sun Breathing. (Also Read: Did Demon Slayer hire a Bollywood director for Season 3? Fans speculate!)

Kokushibo, the Upper Moon One, is renowned for his mastery of the sword and formidable array of abilities. Formerly a Demon Slayer, he honed his skills and created his own unique breath style known as Moon Breathing, which ranks as the second strongest breath style.

As his thoughts of seeking to avoid defeat and resentment towards his self heavily conflict with him, his body begins to decay, exactly at the point where Muichiro stabbed him, struggling for a final time, the Upper Rank One's body crumbles away, as he realizes that all he wanted was to be like his younger, more ...

The actual answer is a little more complicated, but essentially no, Genya is not a demon. According to the source manga: "Genya has a special ability. For a short amount of time, he can become a demon using his bite strength and his special digestive organs."

After battling a few demons, however, Tanjiro became strong and brave enough to fight Kyogai, the Lower Rank 6 and the weakest member of the Twelve Kizuki. Much after Kyogai's demise, Tanjiro came across the Lower Rank 5 Rui and his family.

Muzan is beheaded by Gyomei. Using this opportunity, Gyomei Himejima appears and destroys Muzan's head. However, he is able to instantly regrow his head, just as Kagaya had predicted earlier, instructing Gyomei to restrain Muzan until sunlight.

Tanjiro is not a Hashira within the Demon Slayer Corps. Officially, the highest rank he attains is Hinoe, the third highest position within the Corps.

Ultimately, Yoriichi is the only being Muzan ever feared as he personally saw him as the true "monster" between the two of them and to the very end he remained baffled as to how a being like Yoriichi came to exist.

Kokushibo's disgust turned to fear upon seeing that Yoriichi still was the same capable and powerful warrior from before. He told his brother when he was to attack and soon struck, slicing through his neck without Kokushibo able to even draw his blade.

Why does kokushibo hate Yoriichi? ›

Kokushibo growing immensely envious of Yoriichi. It is revealed that, as a human, Kokushibo harbored an immense sense of envy towards his younger twin brother for his natural talent and incredible abilities.

Mitsuri Kanroji (Love Hashira)

However, Mitsuri passes away while fighting Muzan Kibutsuji in the Sunrise Countdown arc. She displays extraordinary strength, ripping off the Demon King's arm. Despite her power move, Muzan's attacks tear her flesh and limbs, and she succumbs to death during the battle.

Moving in to finish the job with his Nichirin Sword, Genya ignored Tanjiro's advice, proceeding to complete Karaku's decapitation. The two demons became four, and Genya is stabbed through the chest by the spear-wielding Hantengu, Aizetsu.

Despite being the Progenitor of Demons in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, Muzan Kibutsuji generally feels little more than disdain toward his creations. He has a few favorites among the Kizuki such as Rui (Lower Five), Gyutaro (Upper Six) and Akaza (Upper Three).

Tanjiro Climbed Ranks Without Even Meaning To

Once Tanjiro was ready, he took part in the Final Selection. Upon successfully completing the Final Selection, Tanjiro obtained the rank of Mizunoto.

It think its safe to assume that at the time Douma turned Gyutaro and Daki, Gyokko was not turned into a demon. So that means the original Upper Moons were two unnamed moons that were killed within 25 years of when Gyutaro and Daki were turned. Thus after 26 years, Gyutaro and Daki were Upper 6 and Douma was Upper 2.

Eventually, Muzan realizes that if he does not make a tough decision soon, the Infinity Castle can be used against him. With his back against the wall, the Demon King kills Nakime bringing an end to her life of servitude.

Muichiro mocks him for thinking he was the only one who did not take the fight seriously in the beginning; he gets close to the demon whilst obscured by the mist and swings his blade up, decapitating Upper Five. Muichiro kills Gyokko once and for all.
