Affiliation Demon Extermination Corps

They are a group composed of the best and most powerful swordsmen belonging to the Demon Extermination Corps, who serve as elite warriors.

The Pillars are the nine most powerful swordsmen among the Demon Slayers, led by Kagaya Ubuyashiki, and a vital part of the Demon Slayer Corps. Each possesses a distinct breathing style that they were able to perfect through intense training.

The pillars are constantly searching for a Tsuguko (継つぐ子こ, Tsuguko?), a successor, to take their place when they die or retire. Each has an assigned region to protect, and they must also gather information about demons and improve their techniques or develop new ones. Due to their busy schedules, they only dedicate their time to training their tsuguko.

To apply for tsuguko, one must be accepted or recruited by a Pillar. They generally take a hunter with a similar breathing style as a successor, but they may also recruit one with a completely different style.

It is said that to ascend to Pillar, one must undergo arduous training, usually taking five years for an ordinary person. However, those with great talent are able to do so in two years. Also, as a requirement, one must defeat one of the Twelve Demon Moons. Likewise, a Hunter can become a Pillar if they kill fifty Demons.

Uniform. The characteristic uniform of the Demon Hunters that was created with a light and special fabric that allowed them to be protected from air, humidity and fire, even the claws and teeth of a demon would not be enough to destroy the fabric with which it was created[7].

Nichirin Sword. A special cutting weapon that was used and made specifically for the Extermination Corps to kill demons. They were forged from a unique mineral that constantly absorbed sunlight, one of the demons' greatest weaknesses.[8]

Kasugai Crow. These were birds used by members of the Extermination Corps, primarily for communication through notes or to inform hunters about new missions, among other things.

Foundation More than 1000 years ago[1] Founder Ubuyashiki Family[1] Leader(s) Kagaya Ubuyashiki (97th) †[2] Kiriya Ubuyashiki (98th)[3]

an organization that has been in existence for over 1000 years, dedicated to protecting humanity from Demons.

It was founded by the Ubuyashiki Family over 1000 years ago because after one of their members became a demon, the entire family was cursed and all newborns died shortly after birth. The priests advised them to dedicate their lives to killing the demon and in this way, the Ubuyashiki family name could continue to exist for many more years. Since then, the founding of the organization took place and it has been led for hundreds of generations by members of the Ubuyashiki Family[1].

The organization is composed of hundreds of Demon Slayers and were never recognized by the government.[5][6] Its ninety-seventh leader was Kagaya Ubuyashiki, and after his death, Kiriya Ubuyashiki became the ninety-eighth leader until the organization's dissolution.[3]

Join To become a demon hunter, an individual had to pass the Final Selection, a test used as an entrance exam to join the Extermination Corps. During this selection, a group of people had to survive on a demon-infested mountainside without any outside help for seven nights.

organization composed of a group of twelve Demons who pursued the goal of finding the Blue Spider Lily.

The organization was created and led by Muzan Kibutsuji; the demons that composed it were under the total control of Muzan and he was in charge of providing them with a considerable portion of his blood as a reward for following his orders [1]. Most of its operations and meetings [2] were carried out in the Infinite Dimensional Fortress. They were active for hundreds of years until its destruction after the attack on the fortress began.

The Twelve Demon Moons were divided into two groups, the Upper Moons (上じょう弦げん, Jōgen, also called Crescent Moons?) and the Lower Moons (下か弦げん, Kagen, also called Waning Moons?). Their main characteristic was the number that identified them as one of the twelve Moons, which was printed on their eyes; one in the case of the Lower Moons and two in the eyes of the Upper Moons[3].

The power scale of the demon moons was determined by the number they possessed[1]; the lower the number, the more powerful the demon. However, the power scale was divided, so that the lower moon six was the weakest of all while the upper moon one was the strongest[4].

Tamayo was also able to turn a human into a demon, albeit through science rather than blood sharing, however this method is not as efficient as it took him two hundred years to develop, and was only put into practice once[7]. Yushiro was also able to demonize Chachamaru through an unknown means[8].

It should be noted that its creation is not mystical, but a biological process achieved through substances, suggesting that Muzan's blood and the medicine created from the Blue Spider Lily have mutagenic properties. As demonstrated by Muzan pouring blood on a civilian, the process takes place at the cellular level, where if the mutation is too drastic, the victim's cells that cannot withstand the change will be destroyed leaving only ashes. [9]

Leader(s) Muzan Kibutsuji (Progenitor)

Its origin dates back to the Heian Period, during which there was a man named Muzan Kibutsuji who suffered from a serious and mysterious illness that would end his life once he turned twenty. Frustrated and seeing that there was no possible cure for his recovery, Muzan murdered the doctor responsible for his care before he could complete his recovery by using a plant known as the Blue Spider Lily[3].

Shortly after, Muzan realized that the treatment had worked, prolonging his life, albeit at the cost of his humanity. He soon regretted killing the doctor, as he discovered that becoming a Demon no longer allowed him to expose himself to sunlight[4], as it could burn him to death, and the only way to overcome the sunlight was by consuming the medicine created from said plant[3]. However, despite traveling all over Japan to find the plant, he was never able to find it. Obsessed with walking in the sun once more and ridding himself of his weakness, Muzan has made it his life's goal to find the Blue Spider Lily[5], but was unsuccessful, and so Muzan continued to create Demons with his blood, so that they can help him find it. This makes Muzan the progenitor of all Demons.[2]

Demons are not born naturally, except for Muzan, who was the first Demon to be born as a result of medicine created from the Blue Spider Lily.[3] Most members of the race reproduce by turning human through exposure to the blood of a very strong Demon; only Muzan and his two top Demon Moons, Doma and Kokushibo, have been shown to possess this ability. People resistant to Demon blood do exist, however, they are very rare.[6]

Uzui goes to the Butterfly Mansion to steal its occupants for his infiltration mission. At that moment, Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke stop Uzui from doing such a dangerous thing by offering to join him on the aforementioned mission. To do so, Tengen has the boys disguise themselves as women to infiltrate the houses where his wives were supposedly last seen, while he poses as just another client.

Being one of the sons of a clan with a strong tradition in the Shinobi arts. [1] Tengen was one of the nine children that made up the family nucleus. However, seven of his brothers died when he was 15, leaving only him and his second youngest brother. The harsh and abusive training that his father made them endure made his brother become like his father: carefree about life and someone who did not hesitate to use people as tools. [1]

Disgusted by this worldview, Tengen chose to rebel against the values ​​instilled in him during his youth. He instructed his wives to value their own lives first, innocent civilians second, and his own last, despite completely defying his training.[2]

Some time later, Kagaya Ubuyashiki took them in, and Tengen joined the Demon Slaying Corps. He became a Pillar sometime before Sanemi Shinazugawa, as he was present at Sanemi's first meeting and expressed his annoyance when the new Pillar confronted his leader.

Tengen's first appearance is during the emergency meeting of the Pillars to determine the punishment Tanjiro would receive for helping a Demon despite the fact that it was his younger sister Nezuko. Like all the other Pillars, Tengen chose to obey his master Kagaya Ubuyashiki in letting Tanjiro live, as he was too valuable to the organization as he was the first Hunter to see Muzan in person.

Tengen had sent his wives Suma, Makio, and Hinatsuru to Yoshiwara, an area of ​​Tokyo where the so-called Red Light District or Entertainment District is located, a place where adult entertainment is found within the city where brothels abound. Because there are rumors of the presence of Demons responsible for the disappearance of hundreds of people over the years. However, since he has no contact with his wives,

Gentle nature; she was calm, patient, and extremely kind, with a personality similar to Tanjiro's. However, while she tended to appear tolerant and serene, she occasionally revealed a different side, standing out for her bravery in combat situations and her ability to think quickly. Furthermore, she proved skilled at creating battle strategies, which were often highly effective.

Due to her more understanding and calm demeanor, Hinatsuru often played the role of emotional support for Tengen, in a way that neither Makio nor Suma could provide. Despite being only slightly older than them, she displayed much more maturity, frequently acting as a mediator between the two. This was evident when she conversed with Makio about how Tengen lived his life differently from traditional shinobi, much to Makio's confusion.

Though generally calm and kind, Hinatsuru showed anger when Suma and Makio argued while Tengen was on the verge of death due to Gyutaro's poison. She also expressed outrage when Obanai belittled Tengen's efforts, demoting him just for defeating the weaker upper rank.

A young woman of medium height, with a slim and curvaceous figure. Her long, black hair, which she usually wore in a ponytail, complemented her facial features. She had large, almond-shaped violet eyes, framed by delicate eyelashes and thin eyebrows, with a distinctive mole under her left eye.

She wore a short, sleeveless lavender dress adorned with an irregular, square pattern in a darker shade. The design featured a plunging neckline that exposed part of her bust, secured by a purplish-red obi, likely where she kept her kunai. She completed her outfit with fishnet socks that reached mid-thigh and pale sandals with purple straps.

Makio has a headstrong personality similar to Inosuke Hashibira: bold and confident in the way she acts. Out of her two co-wives, Makio tends to have the least patience for Suma. When the women are fighting Daki's obi in the underground cavern, Makio can be seen reprimanding her for being condescending. Later, when the three wives are reunited, Makio can also be seen slapping Suma and calling her an idiot after she makes snide remarks about Hinatsuru's supposed death.

However, Makio has a softer side that she shows when dealing with Tengen. She is seen worried about his deteriorating health after their big battle, and clings to him in relief after Nezuko heals him.

Makio is a young woman of average height who possesses a voluptuous figure with pale skin and large golden eyes framed by prominent upper and lower eyelashes, and thin, downward-arching eyebrows that give her a determined and stubborn look. She has black hair tied back with golden-brown bangs hanging loose, framing her face.

Makio is seen wearing a sleeveless red and white striped dress that ends mid-thigh, also revealing her cleavage, and secured with a black obi where she keeps her kunai. She has grey bandages wrapped around her calves and up to her thighs. Her footwear consists of a pair of zōri with red straps. During her time as Daki's captive, she is seen with cuts and bruises all over her body.

Suma possesses a personality that bears a strong resemblance to Zenitsu Agatsuma's, characterized by exaggerated and overacted displays of emotion in almost every situation. Her attitude tends to lean toward fear and insecurity, especially when faced with dangerous circumstances, and she has a tendency to burst into tears easily, whether due to praise or fear of demons. She also tends to behave childishly, getting into arguments with her co-wives, particularly Makio, whom she often irritates with her tendency to become fussy or overly emotional.

However, despite her immature traits, Suma proves to be a deeply loyal and loving wife to Tengen Uzui, as well as a concerned individual for those around her. During the Battle of Yoshiwara, she leads the evacuation of the inhabitants alongside Makio when the confrontation between the Hunters and the higher-ranking Demons reaches its peak. Her devotion to Tengen is also evident at critical moments, such as when she abandons her usual insecure attitude to angrily launch herself at Nezuko Kamado, scolding her for prematurely "incinerating" her husband during the poison purge. In a twist of her temperament, Suma goes from anger to relief, moaning with happiness at the realization that Nezuko's action saved Tengen's life by burning away the poison that afflicted him.

Suma, one of Tengen Uzui's wives, is a short young woman distinguished by her shoulder-length black hair with short, neat bangs and deep blue eyes. Like the other wives of the Sound Pillar, Suma possesses a well-proportioned figure that emphasizes her presence.

In her signature attire, she wears a short, sleeveless blue dress that exposes both sides of her hips and barely covers her upper thighs. This dress features a deep white neckline that highlights her cleavage, secured by a gray obi where she usually keeps her kunai. She complements her outfit with gray tabi socks that reach her ankles and white zori with blue straps.

Superhuman Speed: Tengen was considered the fastest Pillar in history and thus also has superhuman reflexes. He often appeared to be teleporting.[7] Most notably, Tengen was fast enough to decapitate Daki before she could process what had happened.[8] Superhuman Strength: Tengen possessed tremendous physical strength that prior to his retirement, he was considered the second strongest pillar of his generation only surpassed by Gyomei Himejima. He displayed his superhuman strength several times as he was able to carry Aoi and Naho without problems[9] and shortly after he left Zenitsu and Inosuke unconscious.[10] He was even able to match Gyutaro's strength without his left arm. Echolocation: Tengen possesses echolocation as when trying to find Inosuke's location, he analyzed the sounds reflected and resonated through the air by the cavern walls, and accurately located and was even able to guess the number of people within the tunnels by hearing the sound bouncing off their physical bodies.[11] Musical Score (譜ふ面めん, Fumen?)[12]: It is a technique that Tengen developed using his heightened sense of hearing to work in conjunction with his sound breathing, where he would analyze combat maneuvers and deconstruct the rhythm of his enemies' attacks into sound and read them like musical scores, to the point where each fight would become like a song. However, it took Tengen a long time to complete the score. Once completed, Tengen was able to fight Gyutaro on equal terms despite losing his left hand, but due to the poison he was pushed to his limit and was unable to attack Gyutaro's neck.[12]

Very eccentric, he always wanted to complete his actions in an "extravagant" way, and became excited when a situation or person met those characteristics. He considered himself a superior being, calling himself "God" multiple times, which complemented his arrogance and egocentrism. [6] He could be inconsiderate and insensitive, as seen when he tried to take Aoi Kanzaki against her will to carry out the mission in the entertainment district, but he also had a caring side that he only showed mainly towards those most precious to him, especially his three wives, Makio, Suma and Hinatsuru. He also showed a somewhat kinder side towards Tanjiro after his mission, and began to accept him more and more as the series progressed.

Despite being a shinobi who traditionally valued completing the mission above all else, Tengen rejected that ideology after seeing its effect on his family. He believed that his subordinates, whether his wives or the Demon Slayers under his command, should value their lives and the lives of innocent people above their missions or his own.

A very tall, heavily built man with a bulky and muscular build and lightly tanned skin. His hair was white and of uneven length, the longest strands reaching his shoulders and styled with three shorter, more noticeable strands that arced to fall like bangs between his eyes and on either side of his face. He had very thin, fuchsia-colored eyes that appeared to slant inward, each with a long eyelash flowing across his face.

During his time in the Demon Slayer Corps, Tengen wore a customized version of the standard Demon Slayer uniform, which was a black color dyed in a shade of turquoise along with a burgundy cloth wrap around his calves where his hakama pants fastened and white sandals. He also wore two thick, golden rings around his upper arms and what appeared to be a pair of blue fingerless gloves, secured around his middle finger with a white band and his wrists with another set of thinner golden rings, this time with two on each side. In addition to this, Tengen sported a white wrap covering his hair, leaving only a thin ponytail visible falling behind his head between its layers, which was adorned with a large, pale gray headband that was decorated with six light pink gemstones, three large and arranged in a line, and three small and arranged in a triangle on the far left. A chain of smaller pale blue gemstones hangs from each side of this headdress, framing her face, and she also wore what appeared to be red eye makeup around her left eye, consisting of alternating large and small dots running inward from her eye.
