4 Tengen Usui, the Sound Hashira
Despite his oddly flashy showing in the Hashira meeting, Tengen turned out to be a reliable ally for Nezuko and Tanjiro, making him one of the most friendly and likable Hashira.
Rengoku is easily one of the most lovable Hashira in Demon Slayer. This is why it's a shame that he succumbed to the wounds that he suffered in his fight against Akaza.
The shonen protagonist himself, Tanjiro Kamado, is naturally one of the best characters in Demon Slayer for many different reasons. He is compassionate, brave, smart, loyal, and strong-willed, even more so than his shonen rivals Izuku Midoriya from My Hero Academia and Yuji Itadori from Jujutsu Kaisen.
Tanjiro Kamado is undoubtedly one of the kindest characters in the series. The only one who comes close to him is Kagaya Ubuyashiki. In a show that is this dark, kindness is a bit of an odd trait to have.
Between all of Tanjiro's skills and his mannerisms, Muzan is certainly scared of Tanjiro.
1 Tanjiro Kamado
Demon Slayer's protagonist is also, unsurprisingly, the anime's most popular character by quite a wide margin. Tanjiro is kind to his friends, but he also doesn't hesitate to put them into place for their poor behavior, particularly when it comes to Inosuke and Zenitsu.
Demon Slayer's adorable icon Nezuko has stolen fans' hearts for five key reasons, earning her the title “Best Girl” of the series.
Shinobu, the insect Hashira, is one of the fan-favorite female characters in Demon Slayer. She is also the most unique swordsman in the anime. Instead of relying on her physical strength, she smartly uses Wisteria poison (harmful for only demons) to weaken demons and then easily slices their necks with her katana.
Obanai Iguro is one of the harsher Hashira members. He demanded that Giyuu be punished for allowing Nezuko to get away unharmed, and later restrained Tanjiro as he tried to help his sister. He hates demons and has little regard for his fellow Hashira, except Mitsuri Kanroji later on.
The Wind Hashira has one of the saddest backstories in Demon Slayer. His mother had turned into a demon and had killed five of his siblings. He was forced to kill his own mother in an attempt to save his only remaining brother, Genya.
1 QUIET CHARACTER: Gyomei Himejima Is Soft-Spoken
The stone Hashira, Gyomei, is a gentle giant who is patient and firm like the earth itself.
1 Mitsuri Kanroji
Mitsuri has a strange connection with her renown for strength while being secure in her talents as a powerful Hashira.
14 She Has A Really Sweet Relationship With The Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji. In the manga, Nezuko gets to know the Love Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji and looks up to her like an older sister, which makes their relationship interesting since Nezuko usually sees female humans as either a surrogate mother or a young sister.
Shinobu Kocho's tragic backstory is one of the most heart-wrenching in Demon Slayer. She and her sister, Kanae, were orphaned at a young age after their parents were killed by a demon.
Don't go! DON'T LEAVE ME HERE! Muzan speaks his final words as he loses control over Tanjiro.
Since she's the Love Hashira, it just makes sense for Mitsuri to be one of Demon Slayer's kindest and most compassionate characters. She always compliments the people around her, even if it's just mentally. She can also find everybody's best qualities.
Tamayo is arguably one of the smartest characters in Demon Slayer since she is one of the major reasons why Muzan died to the members of the Demon Slayer Corps.
Nezuko Kamado
The young girl almost faced the same fate, but she ended up becoming a demon herself; however, Tanjiro made it his mission to reverse Nezuko's condition and turn her back into a human.
1 Muzan Is The Ultimate Villain
Still, Muzan is admired for his relentless ability to pursue his goals and his high intelligence. Despite his many crimes, he remains respected in the Demon Slayer fandom for being an exceptional villain, and for this reason, he is beloved by many.
Demon Slayer has peculiar characters with incredible strength, skill, and presence. But, among this group of eccentric people, Kyojuro Rengoku still stands out from his colleagues due to his upright and exceptional bright personality. Yet, his fiery hair is also one of the biggest reasons he stands out.
1) Shinobu Kocho
The Insect Pillar of Demon Slayer Corps, Shinobu is undeniably the smartest individual. She might not be physically stronger than others, but her intelligence is what kept her going.
