He is the ninety-seventh leader of the Demon Slayer Corps and head of the Ubuyashiki family, respectfully known to all as "Oyakata-sama." His lineage shares a familial origin with Muzan Kibutsuji, and thus he carries a hereditary curse that weakens his body from birth and prevents him from living beyond youth; he is blind, and his skin progressively deteriorates with age. Despite his frail physical condition, he possesses exceptional wisdom, charisma, and strategic ability, and treats all members of the corps as if they were his own children, deeply concerned for their well-being and safety. He directs all corps operations, coordinates missions, and makes the most important decisions, commanding the absolute respect and loyalty even of the Pillars.

When he was human, he suffered from an illness that left him very weak and with difficulty moving, so Muzan Kibutsuji transformed him into a demon to grant him a stronger body. After killing his parents in a moment of confusion and fear, he developed a distorted idea of ​​what a family means, gathering other demons on Mount Natagumo and forcing them to fulfill family roles under his control. His demonic technique allows him to create and manipulate very strong and sharp threads.

He is the demon who holds the position of Upper Moon Five within the Twelve Demon Moons. Before becoming a demon, he was named Managi and was a fisherman in a coastal village; he was rejected for his strange habit of collecting and displaying dead fish, and after his parents died in a sea accident, he was found and transformed by Muzan Kibutsuji.

Its appearance is one of the most grotesque: its upper body emerges from a large porcelain vase; instead of eyes, it has two green mouths, its true eyes being on its forehead and in its mouth, and many small arms sprout from its body. In its awakened form, it acquires scales and an appearance more akin to a sea creature. It is extremely narcissistic, believing itself to be a great artist and considering everything it creates a masterpiece; it flies into a rage if its creations are not appreciated.

His Demonic Blood Art is based on magical vases: he can teleport between them, summon fish and water creatures with sharp teeth, launch poisonous needles, trap enemies in unbreakable water bubbles, and create many other offensive techniques.

After Hantengu's death, she ascended to Upper Moon Four. Formerly a street biwa player, she was turned by Muzan.

She was forced by Muzan to continue fighting and was ultimately killed by him when he lost control of the castle.

His true form is tiny and hides inside one of the clones.

However, when Hakuji was 18, a rival dojo poisoned the well water, killing them both. In despair, Hakuji killed all 67 members of the rival dojo with his bare hands and was found by Muzan, who transformed him into a demon, erasing most of his human memories.

He is a tall, muscular man with pale skin, short pink hair, and yellow eyes with his rank written in the pupils. His body bears blue markings similar to the criminal tattoos he had when he was human.

From a young age, he demonstrated a lack of genuine emotions and a belief in gods or the afterlife. He founded and led the religious sect "Eternal Paradise," where he posed as a savior to lure and devour his followers, especially women, as he believes their blood provides him with more nutrients. He was transformed by Muzan over a century ago and maintains absolute loyalty to him, though he feels no true devotion. He is a tall, slender young man with long silver hair and rainbow-colored eyes bearing the characters of his rank written in his pupils. He always wears a calm smile and an affable demeanor that masks his complete emptiness of feeling, his contempt for life, and his belief that death is merely disappearance without judgment or reward.

Born in the Sengoku period, he developed a deep envy and admiration for his brother's unparalleled talent. Knowing that those who awakened the slayer mark would die before the age of twenty-five, and fearing being left behind and disappearing without a trace, he abandoned his duty, allied himself with Muzan, and transformed into a demon to seek immortality and eternally perfect his sword.

He retains the slayer mark he awakened in his human life and wears a modified version of the slayer uniform along with a dark cloak.
