After
Demon Slayer's season 3's latest episode has left fans on edge with Tanjiro's discovery of Yoriichi Tsugikuni's Type Zero sword.
We watched Tanjiro spend most of the episode battling against an extremely cool mechanical doll, the Yoriichi Type Zero, under the tutelage of young swordswmith Kotetsu until the pair were surprised by a treasure hidden inside.
History. Hotaru Haganezuka forges Nichirin swords for the Demon Slayers.
In the manga Tanjiro has the sword repaired by Haganezuka, who he initially traveled to the Swordsmith Village to find.
Talking about the ways to activate the bright red color of the sword, we all know Tanjiro has activated his Demon Slayer Mark, but this time, it was Nezuko's Blood Demon Art that helped him get access to the sword's remarkable ability. Yes, that's right; Nezuko has the ability to awaken a Bright Red Nichirin Sword.
He was a genius when it came to swordsmanship and nearly killed Kibutsuji Muzan all by himself. So now, Tanjiro, the protagonist of the Demon Slayer series, has access to a sword that belonged to the best swordsman to have ever lived.
Black swords are also supposed to hold all the colors, which means Tanjiro is to find his way through all colors and breathing techniques. It is also said to absorb the most sunlight, so it is the strongest sword against the demons.
Tanjiro is a prime example as he only became a Demon Slayer and got his black Nichirin after a demon Human Slayer-ed most of his family.
Being one of the strongest Hashira, Sanemi's sword matches his appearance. His sword is very durable and lasts throughout the series. It had no problem piercing through the box that Nezuko is held in. He fought against Kokushibo during the final arc of the manga.
Yoriichi was powerful enough to defeat Muzan; however, he couldn't do so. That's because he couldn't come down to kill his twin brother, leading to his own demise. Even to this day, Muzan is scared of Yoriichi.
Tanjiro and his father look extremely similar to each other. Fans think that Tanjiro was related to the legendary swordsman since he had the same earrings, and their appearances are similar as well. However, Tanjiro is not a descendant of Yoriichi Tsukiguni.
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.
Tanjiro's Black Sword
Of course, the one who takes the top spot in terms of the best swords in Demon Slayer is Tanjiro's black Nichirin blade.
Tanjiro's ancestor was a good friend of Yoriichi and arguably was one of his only true friends. Therefore Yoriichi gave the earrings as a gift, and since then they have been passed down the generations until they reached Tanjiro.
In an interesting turn of events, as mentioned above, Tanjiro later uses the flame handguard from Rengoku's sword on the legendary Yoriichi sword he finds during the Swordsmith Village arc.
8) Muzan hates being called pale or dead
Muzan is the most powerful demon in the entire series, and is responsible for creating all demons. For someone who considers himself to be perfect, it is natural that he will hate being called pale or dead. This is established quite early on.
The mark on Tanjiro's head is actually a Demon Slayer Mark. Powerful Demon Slayers possess the ability to unlock unique marks that coincide with the special breathing fighting techniques they perform.
why tanjiro's head is so hard? Well, it's thanks to his genetics, as his mother, Ki Kamado, passed down the trait of a rock hard head to him. In fact, Nezuko heard a story about their mother. scaring away a boar by headbutting it, which shows that Ki was also very tough and fearless.
Black blades are seen as a rarity, as demon slayers who wield them are doomed to die young. No wielder of a black sword has ever become a Hashira, either.
The pink blade represents Love, which may seem kind of abstract when put together with the other blades but it has an explanation: the Love Breathing has a peculiar nature, and it was developed by the pink Nichirin blade wielder herself, Mitsuri Kanroki.
To become a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, he had to clear the Final Selection. During this event, Tanjiro received a massive blow to his head from the Hand Demon that killed many of Urokodaki's students. This increased the size of his scar and changed the color as well.
He is believed to have gone by the name of Go Yoshihiro or simply Go, the name of the town from which he came. As well as being a Soshu swordsmith he is a member of the Etchu tradition. He is considered to have the highest skill in forging swords among the Masamune Juttetsu [1].
Despite of this possibility, there might still be hope that Tanjiro may not have died at the young age of 25.
