A few basic traits immediately come to mind when someone imagines a typical hero. These could include, among other things, physical strength, bravery, resiliency, and courage. These qualities are undoubtedly shared by many of the heroes in Demon Slayer, particularly Tanjiro Kamado, the main character of the series. Curiously, though, Tanjiro’s greatest quality is something wholly unanticipated that makes him stand out from all other shonen heroes.
Unquestionably one of the most powerful Demon Slayer characters is Tanjiro. As the series goes on, he trains more and faces more formidable, difficult demons, which only increases his might. He is maybe the most cunning and formidable hero in the entire manga by the book’s conclusion.
In addition to his astonishing swordsmanship and Water Breathing, he also has an unexpected ability called Sun Breathing. The strongest demon slayer in history, Yoiirichi, created Sun Breathing, the rarest and most sought-after Breathing Style that only a handful are able to master and use in combat.
Tanjiro’s optimism elevates him above other heroes and sets him apart.
Nothing Has Been Able To Stop Tanjiro From Moving Forward Despite Adversity
Tanjiro unleashes “Hinokami Kagura”—the Sun Breathing talent that so few people are able to use—many times during Demon Slayer. He excels above his fellow Demon Slayer Corps members thanks to this unique talent, which when paired with his tenacious nature renders him all but unbeatable. Though it is a highly valuable component of who he is, his swordsmanship and fighting prowess are not his greatest qualities. Unexpectedly, Tanjiro’s greatest asset isn’t his terrible circumstances; rather, it’s his optimistic, positive attitude on life.
Tanjiro’s favorite mentor passed away in front of his eyes, he lost his entire family to demons, and he faced unimaginable mental and physical difficulties. His lone surviving sibling also became a demon. Anyone in his position might be expected to be quite pessimistic, yet Tanjiro is the complete opposite. Regardless of the circumstances, the hero maintains an optimistic outlook and motivates those around him. His most distinctive feature is his unwavering optimism, which sets him apart from all other shonen heroes and makes him an incredibly memorable and unexpected figure.
Tanjiro firmly believes that no matter what, one must always persevere.
Throughout Demon Slayer, Tanjiro’s valiant actions are motivated by this fundamental idea.
Tanjiro’s optimistic outlook helps him get through challenging times, like losing loved ones and sustaining severe injuries. His unwavering optimism stems from his abiding conviction that giving up is never an option. He conveyed this feeling to Kazumi, offering the man consolation following the death of his wife with the sobering yet accurate advice, “you have to go on, no matter what.” Tanjiro has undoubtedly often exemplified this notion in Demon Slayer. He had every reason and chance to give up the struggle after the deaths of Rengoku and his family, but he never once considered doing so.
He joined the Demon Slayer Corps, demonstrating his deservingness of the moniker “demon slayer” by valiantly enduring the Final Selection test. He sought this objective in order to shield innocent humans from ruthless demons and to safeguard his younger sister Nezuko, hoping to return her to her human form. These inspiring reasons provide him with the willpower to keep moving forward and seeing the bright side because giving up would mean failing not just for himself but also for his beloved sister and the entire human race, which he vowed as a demon slayer to defend.
His Encouragement Strives to Uplift Everyone, even Demons and Humans
Tanjiro Leads by Example by Giving Kindness Unselfishly to All, Even the Undeserving
Tanjiro’s optimistic outlook not only serves him well, but it also makes him a wonderful mentor and source of inspiration for everyone he comes into contact with. Tanjiro’s compassionate demeanor and soft spoken words appear to have the amazing capacity to connect with nearly everyone, be they a vicious demon determined to destroy everything or just another good-hearted demon slayer. He encouraged his companion Zenitsu when he was feeling scared about facing demons, for instance, and inspired Giyu to enlist in the Hashira training. Several of the demons themselves experience his astounding kindness as well, as he converses with and consoles them prior to their demise.
From the Hand Demon to Gyutaro and Daki, Tanjiro never treats demons cruelly and, for the most part, gives them the fastest, least painful death possible. He acknowledges the evilness of their deeds and the need to destroy the demons, but he also feels compassion for the animals since he knows that many of them were wrongfully singled out by Muzan and left to suffer this destiny. All things considered, he is the type of person who seeks for the best in everyone—including devils.
Tanjiro’s most defining characteristic is his positivity, which is fundamental to who he is.
His positive outlook that benefits both himself and others defines every aspect of his personality.
Although Tanjiro does experience periods of despair and brokenness, without these occurrences, he would appear too ideal to be realistic. These sporadic displays of weakness and vulnerability help to further humanize Tanjiro and fortify his commitment to keep working hard in pursuit of his objectives because everyone experiences doubt and pain from time to time. His positive outlook is genuine, and his words of encouragement are more than simply platitudes. He strives to serve everyone and better the world around him with every action and decision he makes, demonstrating how essential his positivism is to who he is.
