Sanemi Shinazugawa¹⁰

Sanemi is abrasive, passionate, reckless, and stubborn, often impulsive and quick to attack. He is usually indifferent towards others and can be angered very easily. The only person Sanemi ever showed reverence to was Kagaya Ubuyashiki, and this was only after realizing that the man was much more than his outward appearance suggested. Sanemi has also shown a hunger for battle, wishing to be able to meet the Demons that are part of the Twelve Demon Moons and proclaiming his eagerness in fighting Kokushibo, the Upper First Moon.

Sanemi's cold, rude, and disdainful behavior is a result of losing too many people he cared about in the past. Later, when he sees those people who have passed away, such as his mother, he can't help but give her a smile so he can see her again. When Genya joins the Demon Slayers on their quest, Sanemi repeatedly ignores him and lashes out at any chance of seeing him, but Tanjiro Kamado is able to tell him that Sanemi didn't really hate him; and in fact still felt the same brotherly love he had for him in childhood. However, this was never openly expressed as he tried to keep Genya away from him and the Slayers so he wouldn't be exposed to danger.

Due to all the losses he suffered in his childhood, Sanemi holds a deep hatred towards Demons and everything they stand for, holding a strong belief that humans and Demons do not deserve to coexist peacefully. When he comes to a decision on this matter, it is extremely difficult even for his fellow Pillars to sway him. In order to prove his point, he ignored Tanjiro's words regarding his sister Nezuko being incapable of feeding on humans and in order to prove his point, he risked his physicality by injuring Nezuko inside her wooden box[5] and even taunting her with his blood to invite her to attack him[6]. Even after she does not comply, and Kagaya uses this as proof that Nezuko will not attack humans, Sanemi does not really accept the Kamado siblings. Sanemi has been shown to be quite flexible in the use of weapons, being able to use Genya's sword and shotgun alongside his own Nichirin blade in a high-speed battle against Kokushibō. Also, when he fought Muzan, he used fire by throwing oil on the demon and lighting it with a match.

As a Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, Sanemi is a very powerful and skilled combatant. [5] He has demonstrated his extraordinary abilities and proficiency in combat on multiple occasions. By training under Giyu Tomioka , Sanemi was able to fight on equal terms with the Water Hashira. In the battle within Infinity Castle, Sanemi was shown to be capable of instantly annihilating hordes of demons that were comparable to the Lower Ranks in strength. In particular, he was able to hold his own against the Upper Rank One, Kokushibo . According to the demon, Sanemi's physical and technical abilities have reached their peak. [6] Kokushibo also commented that Sanemi and the accompanying Gyomei Himejima stood out as highly skilled even among the ranks of the already powerful Hashira. [7] After the Upper Rank was defeated, Sanemi quickly recovered from his brother's death and proceeded to aid the Demon Slayers against the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji . He played a pivotal role in damaging the demon alongside the attacks of the other combatants and was one of the two Hashira who survived to see the end of the monumental battle.

Indomitable Will: Sanemi possesses an unbreakable spirit and incredible willpower. In his confrontation with Kokushibo, the second most powerful demon in existence, he has shown on numerous occasions his complete refusal to give up, despite the seemingly impossible odds against the demon and the numerous grievous injuries he received. Sanemi goes so far as to fight the demon directly, actively battling Kokushibo alone for a long period of time and outright stating that he would kill him for hurting Genya. After the battle ended with Genya's death, despite mourning his beloved brother, Sanemi was able to put aside his grief to confront Muzan shortly after.

Tactical Intellect: Despite appearing impulsive and reckless, Sanemi boasts an impressive ability of observation and understanding in battle, particularly through action-based thinking. He demonstrated this when he deduced the threat of Kokushibo's miniature moon-shaped attacks, and again when he instantly grasped the abilities of Yushiro's talismans despite never having used them or been informed of their properties.
Combat Intuition: Sanemi possesses incredible split-second thinking and planning ability. He was able to trap and kill countless Demons on his own despite having no knowledge of the Demon Slayer Corps or Nichirin swords, creating elaborate ways to capture them by arming himself in any way he could and using his Marechi blood.
Weapon Versatility:
Sanemi nearly stabs Kokushibo with Genya's Nichirin sword.

Supernatural abilities
Marechi Blood: Sanemi's blood was revealed to be one of the rarest blood types, making it incredibly intoxicating and delicious to Demons. It is also unique due to its intense potency that the slightest scent of her blood causes Demons to salivate and immediately lose focus, as her blood was able to affect the strongest of the Upper Ranks, Kokushibo. However, its effect wore off after a while and was shown to be completely ineffective against Kokushibo after growing accustomed to him and Muzan. Despite the potency of her blood, Nezuko was shown to be able to withstand it due to her own strong conviction and will to not eat humans, which is further cemented and strengthened by the hypnosis planted in her brain by Sakonji Urokodaki. In addition to its potency against a demon's senses, Sanemi's blood was able to clot through his mastery of Total Concentration Breathing, allowing him to stop his bleeding completely and continue fighting even when cut.

they cut.

Fighting style
Master Swordsman: Being a Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, Sanemi is one of the most powerful and skilled swordsmen in the entire organization. [12] His swordsmanship matched that of Giyu Tomioka, an extremely skilled swordsman in his own right, during their sparring match while undergoing Hashira Training. Sanemi's swordsmanship skills allowed him to keep up with and impress the Upper Rank One, Kokushibo, a demon with centuries of swordsmanship under his belt. [13] Sanemi could also adapt and work with Gyomei's Stone Breathing techniques to push Kokushibo back.

.

Wind Breathing (PleaseYesYo呼Yo吸きゅう, Kaze no kokyū ? ): A breathing style that Sanemi learned and mastered under Masachika Kumeno after receiving tutelage from an unknown cultivator. As a Wind Hashira, Sanemi was considered the most skilled Wind Breathing user of his generation. His level of skill with Wind Breathing reminded Kokushibo of the first Wind Hashira during the Sengoku Era, the Golden Age of Demon Slayers.

Childhood
Sanemi was born into a large family. He was the oldest of seven siblings and lived with his parents and six younger siblings.

His father was a violent man who mistreated his family. Because of this situation, Sanemi developed a protective attitude towards his siblings from an early age.

His mother, although she loved her children, lived under the consequences of family violence.

Sanemi had an especially important relationship with Genya, his younger brother.
His father's
death His father ended up being killed by someone who had conflicts with him.

After his death, the family was left without his presence, but the problems did not disappear.
Her mother's
tragedy Sanemi's mother began to disappear during the nights, and it was later discovered that she had turned into a demon.

One night, he attacked his own children.

Sanemi tried to protect her siblings and ended up confronting her mother. He managed to stop her, but he could not prevent several of his brothers from dying.

Genya survived.

When Genya found out that Sanemi had killed her mother, she accused him of murdering her.

Sanemi, devastated by what happened, reacted violently and ended up pushing him away.

This relationship is one of the most important elements to understand it.

Sanemi didn't really hate Genya. On the contrary: I loved him deeply.

But after losing almost his entire family, he developed a very particular idea:
"I didn't want Genya to become a hunter.

• He wanted his brother to have a normal life.
• I was trying to keep him out of harm's way.
• He did not know how to express his concern in a healthy way.
• He preferred that Genya hated him rather than see him die.
  His aggressiveness towards Genya was a misguided form of protection.
  His path as a hunter
  After losing his family, Sanemi began hunting demons on his own.

His hatred of them became a very powerful motivation.

Eventually he met Masachika Kumeno, who became his partner and an important person to him.

Masachika's death also affected him deeply.

Subsequently, Sanemi became the Pillar of the Wind.

2. Psychological traumas
   Sanemi has several traumatic experiences that directly influence his behavior.
   2.1. Childhood trauma from domestic
   violence Growing up in a home where there was constant violence could teach her that:

• The people who should be protecting you can also hurt you.
• The world is not a safe place.
• You must be prepared to defend yourself.
• Showing vulnerability can leave you exposed.
• Protecting someone may require sacrifices.
  This helps explain their defensive behavior and difficulty trusting.

Trauma from family
loss The death of her siblings was one of the most devastating events of her life.

Sanemi not only lost his family, he also had to witness a situation where he couldn't save the people he loved most.

This can be related to:

• Traumatic grief.
• Persistent feelings of guilt.
• Fear of losing someone again.
• Excessive need to protect.
• Difficulty accepting affection.
  2.3. Survivor's
  guilt This is a particularly relevant psychological interpretation.

Sanemi survived a tragedy in which his brothers died.

Although he was not responsible for what happened, it can be interpreted that he carries the feeling that he should have done more.

This could manifest itself in thoughts such as:

• "I should have protected them".
• "I wasn't strong enough."
• "I can't let it happen again."
• "If I get close to someone, they will end up suffering."
  These are not thoughts that the work necessarily presents as literal phrases, but an interpretation of his actions and his history.
  2.4. Trauma related to Genya
  The relationship with Genya represents an emotional wound that she never managed to completely close.

Sanemi lost his siblings, but Genya was still alive.

Instead of enjoying that opportunity to keep someone in her family, she ended up building a relationship filled with rejection and resentment.

Their behavior can be understood as a combination of:

• Guilt.
• Fear.
• Repressed love.
• Frustration.
• Inability to communicate your feelings.
  2.5. Cumulative grief
  Sanemi did not suffer a single loss.

He lost his father, several siblings, his mother and later his companion Masachika.

The accumulation of these experiences may explain why he seems to be constantly prepared for another misfortune.

. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): possible
It is one of the most interesting possibilities to analyze.

She has lived extremely traumatic experiences during her childhood and adolescence.

Some behaviors compatible with manifestations of post-traumatic stress are:

• Hypervigilance: remain attentive to possible threats.
• Irritability: reacts aggressively to situations that cause frustration.
• Defensive behavior: it is difficult for them to let their guard down.
• Emotional avoidance: avoids talking about their feelings and losses.
• Intense reactions: some situations related to demons or Genya can arouse very strong emotions.
  We cannot say that he has PTSD, but there are elements compatible with this interpretation.
  3.2. Complicated or prolonged grief:
  possible Sanemi seems to have difficulty processing the losses she experienced.

Their past continues to influence their relationships and decisions.

It may present:

• Difficulty accepting losses.
• Feelings of guilt.
• Emotional attachment to deceased people.
• Need to maintain an attitude of strength.
• Difficulty in allowing oneself to enjoy life.
  3.3. Emotional
  regulation problems This is one of the most obvious characteristics.

Sanemi has difficulty controlling the intensity of his emotions.

For example:

• He gets angry quickly.
• May react before thinking.
• You have little patience.
• Use insults and confrontations.
• They can interpret certain actions as provocations.
• It is difficult for them to express sadness without transforming it into anger.
  This does not necessarily mean that you have an intermittent explosive disorder. Impulsivity and aggression can also be learned responses and related to traumatic experiences

Avoidant or defensive attachment:
Sanemi seems to have a complicated relationship with emotional intimacy.

He loves certain people, but he has difficulty proving it.

It could present characteristics of an avoidant attachment style:

• It is difficult for him to depend emotionally on someone.
• He does not usually ask for help.
• May refuse signs of affection.
• Prefers to solve their problems alone.
• Feels uncomfortable when someone tries to get too close emotionally.
• It can push away people you think are important.
  However, their behavior also has elements of fearful attachment: they want to keep the bonds, but they fear the consequences of loving someone.
  3.5. Self-destructive behaviors
  Sanemi shows an extreme willingness to endanger his own integrity.

Their lack of concern for their safety and their willingness to endure very painful situations can be interpreted as a form of personal carelessness.

It doesn't necessarily mean that I want to die. His behavior especially relates to his determination to eliminate demons and protect others.

His main psychological weaknesses are:

1. Impulsivity: he can make hasty decisions when he is angry.
2. Difficulty communicating: they do not know how to adequately express what they feel.
3. Distrust: they can interpret other people's intentions in a negative way.
4. Pride: it is difficult for them to recognize when they need help.
5. Overprotection: you can try to decide for other people.
6. Difficulty forgiving: may hold resentments.
7. Fear of Losing: Your previous experiences can cause you to cling too tightly to the protection of others.
8. Self-neglect: prioritizes their responsibilities and other people over their well-being.
9. Difficulty accepting affection: they may feel uncomfortable with displays of affection.
10. Emotional rigidity: it is difficult for them to adapt to situations that require vulnerability.
    His greatest emotional
    weakness His family.

Especially Genya.

Sanemi can face extremely powerful enemies, but emotionally he is still an older brother who could not save his family and who is afraid of losing what little he has left.

6. Strengths
   Not everything in Sanemi is suffering and aggressiveness. It also has extraordinary qualities.
   6.1. Loyalty
   When you consider someone part of your circle of trust, you can develop a very deep loyalty.

He does not easily abandon people he considers important.
6.2. Courage
Is able to face situations that other people would consider impossible.

It doesn't mean that you don't experience fear, but that you can act even when you're in danger.
6.3. Resilience
Despite the traumatic experiences he lived, he managed to develop skills that allowed him to continue with his life and become one of the most important hunters.
6.4. Capacity for sacrifice
Is willing to take great risks to protect other people.
6.5. Practical

Its pain tolerance and endurance are impressive.

He can:

• Recognize attack patterns.
• Adapt to unfamiliar skills.
• Identify opportunities during a confrontation.
• Coordinate with other hunters.

Sanemi possesses an extremely rare blood known as Marechi.

Its aroma is especially intoxicating for demons and can alter their concentration.

It is a very particular biological characteristic that gives it an advantage in certain confrontations.
7.7. Mark of the Demon Hunter
During the battle against Kokushibo he manages to awaken his mark.

This greatly increases their physical abilities.
7.8. Crimson Nichirin Sword
He also manages to participate in the manifestation of a crimson red Nichirin sword, an important feature during final confrontations.
7.9. Muscle
Control Demonstrates an extraordinary ability to control your muscles and keep your body functional even after sustaining major injuries.

His skills are backed up by his matchups against Kokushibo and Muzan.
There are details of Sanemi that contrast quite a bit with his aggressive personality:

• Favorite food: Ohagi, a Japanese sweet of rice and red bean paste.
• Hobby: Breeding Japanese rhino beetles.
• Social personality: is not especially open with people.
• Aperture level: it is quite reserved.
• Respect: He has special respect for Kagaya Ubuyashiki.
• Relationship with children: You can be much kinder to them than your appearance and behavior suggest.
  A fun detail is that he likes ohagi, but his pride can prevent him from openly acknowledging it, especially in front of Giyu.

Main
characteristics Aggressive and temperamental

• It has an explosive character.
• Easily irritated.
• He does not usually measure his words too much.
• You can raise your voice when something is bothering you.
• Has little tolerance for people they consider irresponsible.

  He's not exactly someone who strives to look nice.
  Direct and brusque,
  Sanemi does not have too many filters.
• Says what he thinks.
• He does not usually soften his opinions.
• It can be quite rude.
• You don't have much patience for long explanations.

• Does not like to take orders.
• You hate feeling inferior.
• Has difficulty apologizing.
• You can continue arguing even when you know you're wrong.

• Suspicion of other people's intentions.
• He doesn't usually talk about his problems.
• He finds it hard to believe that someone would want to help him without expecting something in return.
• He may interpret kindness as an intrusion.
  She's not someone who lets just anyone see her vulnerable side. This is probably the most interesting part of her personality.
  She hides her sadness behind anger
  Sanemi has difficulty expressing painful emotions.

When he is sad, frustrated, or worried, he may react with irritability.

Instead of saying:
"I'm worried about you."
"I'm afraid of losing you."

• "I don't feel well".
  "I need help."
  He is more likely to respond with anger, silence, or rude comments.
  He is emotionally reserved
  She doesn't like to talk about her feelings.

You may experience very intense emotions, but you don't necessarily know how to communicate them.

Even with close friends and family, he would probably find it difficult to talk about his childhood and the losses he suffered.
She is sensitive, even if it doesn't seem like it.
His aggressive behavior does not mean he is emotionally insensitive.

In fact:

• The losses affect him deeply.
• He cares a lot about the people close to him.
• You may feel guilty about situations beyond your control.
• He has difficulty accepting that someone important is suffering.
• It can store memories and feelings for a long time.
  His sensitivity is largely protected by a defensive personality. His sense of humor
  Sanemi isn't particularly joking, but that doesn't mean he lacks a sense of humor.

His humor would probably be:

• Sarcastic.
• Dry.
• Ironic.
• Something scathing.
• Spontaneous.
  He could make quite cutting remarks without changing his expression.

He wouldn't be the typical character who tells jokes to liven up a room. He'd be more like the one who makes an unexpected comment and then goes back to what he was doing.

• Staring at someone when you are suspicious.
• Respond with short sentences.

• Having little patience with people who constantly complain.
  He also has rather particular tastes, such as his fondness for rhinoceros beetles and his love for ohagi. Sanemi doesn't seem like someone who uses nice words constantly.

Their way of showing affection would primarily be through actions.

For example:

• To check that someone arrived safe and sound.
• Worrying about whether he ate.
• To intervene when someone is in danger.
• Remember important details.
• Help without announcing it.
• Staying close when someone needs company.
• Attempt a solution

• Combating: wild, fast and extremely determined.
• Quiet: reserved, although he still has a rather stern expression.
• Smiling: their expression is much less common and can be quite surprising.

How would she fall in love?
Sanemi wouldn't be someone who falls in love easily.

It is likely that initially:

• Observe the person before approaching.
• Be quite suspicious.
• Don't show too much interest.
• Be upset if someone invades your space.
• Try to maintain an indifferent attitude.
  It would not be enough for him to find someone attractive. I would need to develop confidence.

What might appeal to you?

• Sincerity.
• Loyalty.
• Courage.
• Independence.
• Patience.
• That someone does not constantly judge you by your character.
• That it respects its limits.
• Don't try to force them to talk about their past.
  You might also be attracted to someone who has a calm, though not necessarily submissive, personality.

Once Sanemi establishes trust, his behavior could change quite a bit.

It would still be:

• Moody.
• Straight.
• Proud.
• Impatient.
• Not very expressive verbally.
  But it could also become:
• More attentive.
• More considerate.
• Protector.
• Loyal.
• Be mindful of your partner's needs.
  She wouldn't magically transform into a sweet and calm person. Her personality would still be quite intense.

3. How would you show affection?
   Sanemi would probably be more inclined to show affection through actions.

Some examples:
Situation: How might I react?
Your partner is cold. I would offer them something to keep them warm.
She's sick. I would worry and check on her.
She's having a bad day. I would try to help, although I wouldn't always know what to say.
She's tired. She could take care of some tasks.
She needs help. I would appear to help her.
He is in danger. His protective instinct would be activated immediately.
She'd prepare something for him. He would appreciate it, although he might not express it too much.

I might say things like:

• "Did you eat yet?".
  "Be careful when you go out."
  "Don't overexert yourself."
  "Let me know when you arrive."
• "Come, sit down for a while."
  His way of saying "I care about you" would be quite practical. He doesn't seem like someone who's particularly demonstrative in public.

In private, he could gradually get used to displays of affection.

Possible behaviors:

• Hug your partner when there is enough trust.
• Place a hand on their shoulder.
• Take his hand.
• Sit close.
• Accept that your partner rests next to you.
• Give small kisses without too many words.
  At first, he might feel somewhat uncomfortable, especially if he's not used to receiving affection.

However, it would also be important to respect when your partner does not want physical contact.
5. Would he be jealous?
Yes, I might have a certain tendency towards jealousy.

Sanemi has a territorial and distrustful personality, although that doesn't necessarily mean he's controlling.

Could:

• To frown

He does not seem to be particularly demonstrative in public.

In private he could progressively get used to displays of affection.

Possible behaviors:

• Hug your partner when there is enough trust.
• Rest one hand on your shoulder.
• Hold his hand.
• Sit nearby.
• Accept that your partner rests next to you.
• Give small kisses without too many words.
  It may feel a little uncomfortable at first, especially if you're not used to receiving affection.

However, it would also be important for them to respect when their partner does not want physical contact.
5. Would he be jealous?
Yes, he could have a certain tendency to jealousy.

Sanemi has a territorial and suspicious personality, although that doesn't mean he's necessarily controlling.

You could:

• Frown when someone flirts with their partner.
• Become more serious.
• Ask who that person was.
• Show irritation if someone tries to provoke an uncomfortable situation.
  It wouldn't be healthy for you to try to control your partner's friendships, clothes, or activities. He would have to learn to manage his insecurities.

6. How would you react when your partner is sad?
   This would be an interesting situation because Sanemi is not exactly an expert at emotional comfort.

He would probably have two reactions.

First: concern.

• I would ask what happened.
• I would try to identify the problem.
• You would be upset if someone hurt your partner.
• I would look for a practical solution.
  After: accompaniment.

If you find that your partner simply needs company, you might stay close.

He wouldn't necessarily talk too much.

You might say,

"You don't have to explain anything to me now. Stay here for a while."

Even if he's not especially good at expressing comfort, he might learn to recognize the emotional needs of someone important to him.

This would be one of their biggest difficulties as a couple.

Sanemi has trouble controlling his temper.

During an argument you could:

• Raise your voice.
• Interrupt.
• Respond impulsively.
• Getting defensive.
• Saying hurtful things.
• Walking away when he is too angry.
  You may also have a hard time apologizing.

However, a healthy relationship would require you to learn to stop before you emotionally hurt your partner, listen and acknowledge your mistakes.

Her past explains part of her reactions, but it does not justify the abuse.
8. What things would you like about your partner?
I think I would especially value:

1. That he is a sincere person.
2. Don't play with your feelings.
3. That he is loyal.
4. Be patient.
5. That he respects his moments of silence.
6. Don't try to completely change your personality.
7. That he can tell you when he is wrong.
8. Show affection through small details.
9. That it has its own interests.
10. That I can trust him without being afraid of him.
    Something important: he wouldn't need a person who always agreed with him. He could probably use someone who can set limits.
11. What things would bother you?

• Lies.
• Betrayals.
• Emotional manipulation.
• Constant provocations.
• To play with their feelings.
• That they do not respect their limits.
• Trying to force you to speak when you are not ready.
• Someone deliberately putting their life in danger.
• People who appear to be something they are not.

0. What would it be like when you are in love?
   This is one of the most interesting parts.

Sanemi could become quite attentive, although he would try to hide it.

Some possible behaviors:

• He would remember small things that his partner told him.
• You would care about your well-being.
• Would seek to spend time together.
• He would get used to his presence.
• Would be less hostile when alone.
• He may have small gestures of tenderness.
• It would be difficult for him to say "I love you", but his actions would prove it.
  And I'd probably have a huge problem with compliments.

Partner: "You look pretty today."

Sanemi: "What nonsense are you saying?"

He is left thinking about the comment for the rest of the day.

and I imagine a fairly simple coexistence.

• I would prefer a quiet environment.
• He would not be especially talkative when he woke up.
• Could take care of household chores without announcing them.
• You would enjoy eating together.
• You would need quiet moments.
• He would be quite disciplined with his responsibilities.
• You would probably have a hard time talking about household problems if you are angry.
  You could also enjoy quiet activities like taking care of your beetles or sharing a sweet treat with your partner.

12. Their main virtues and defects as a couple
    Virtues
    The best of Sanemi

• Very loyal.
• Protector.
• Attentive to details.
• Committed.
• Value sincerity.
• Capable of sacrificing himself for those he loves.
• You can develop deep bonds.

Difficulties
The most complicated

• Explosive temperament.
• Jealousy and insecurities.
• Poor emotional communication.
• Pride.
• Distrust.
• Overprotection.
• Difficulty apologizing.

13. What type of partner would be most compatible with him?
    I think I could get along better with someone who:

• Is patient, but has character.
• Be affectionate without invading their space.
• Can communicate directly.
• Don't be afraid to set boundaries.
• Respect their moments of silence.
• Be emotionally supportive.
• Don't try to become your savior.
• Allow them to learn to express their feelings at their own pace.
  He wouldn't need someone to put up with all his bad behaviors. I would need a relationship where they could both grow.

One of their most important
bonds The relationship between Sanemi and Genya is probably the most painful in their history.

When they were children:

• Sanemi was very protective of Genya.
• He assumed the responsibilities of an older brother.
• He tried to keep his siblings safe from their father's violence.
• Genya admired Sanemi and trusted him.
  After the family tragedy, their relationship broke down.

How does Sanemi treat Genya?

Externally:

• It is extremely abrupt.
• Insults him.
• He rejects it.
• He doesn't want her to get close to him.
• He gets angry when Genya tries to follow in his footsteps as a hunter.
  But emotionally:
• He cares a lot about him.
• He doesn't want me to die.
• You want them to have a normal life.
• You are afraid of losing it again.
• Keep loving it deeply.
  Sanemi even tries to get Genya to leave the Demon Extermination Corps.

The most painful thing is that Genya interprets that rejection as hatred, when in fact Sanemi is trying to protect him in the wrong way.

Deep down: Genya is the person who represents the last family bond that Sanemi still retains.

His relationship with his mother was important during childhood.

Sanemi loved her and helped take care of her siblings.

However, when she turned into a demon and attacked her children, Sanemi had to stop her.

After that he was emotionally devastated.

It is likely that he retains contradictory feelings:

• Love for the mother he knew.
• Grief over what happened.
• Guilt for having to kill her.
• Sadness over the loss of their family.
  His father
  His father was violent and mistreated his family.

Sanemi had a very negative relationship with him and took a protective role against his behaviors.

There is no affectionate relationship between the two that develops in the story.
His deceased brothers Sanemi had six younger siblings
, counting Genya.

After the tragedy he lost almost everyone.

His death profoundly marked his personality and his way of relating to others.

Conflicted
relationship Sanemi and Giyu do not have a particularly friendly relationship.

Sanemi considers Giyu to be arrogant, aloof, and obnoxious.

• Irritates at their reserved behavior.
• You don't understand your attitude well.
• You can provoke it verbally.
• You don't have much patience with him.
  Giyu, for his part, is also not someone who seeks to get too close to Sanemi.

The curious thing is that both have some similarities:

• They are reserved.
• They have difficulty relating.
• They have experienced significant losses.
• They do not easily express their emotions.
  However, their personalities clash quite a bit.

Despite that, both are partners and fight on the same side.
Gyomei Himejima (Pillar of the Rock)
Much respect
Sanemi deeply respects Gyomei.

Gyomei is considered the most powerful hunter of his generation and Sanemi recognizes his capabilities.

Their relationship is quite interesting because Gyomei has a calm, compassionate, and religious personality, while Sanemi is explosive and aggressive.

Even so:

• Sanemi listens to your opinions.
• Acknowledge their experience.
• Trust in their abilities.
• You can work in coordination with him.
• He does not usually treat him with the same hostility that he shows towards others.
  Gyomei also understands that Sanemi has a painful past and a complicated personality.

Good affinity
Obanai and Sanemi have a pretty good relationship.

Both share certain characteristics:

• Severe personalities.
• Demanding character.
• Distrust of certain people.
• A very strong sense of duty.
• Quite critical attitudes.
  Sanemi seems to feel comfortable with Obanai because they share a similar understanding of his responsibilities.

In addition, both have a relationship of camaraderie like Pilares.

They are not necessarily people who express affection constantly, but there is mutual respect.
The relationship between the two is not very developed.

Mitsuri is cheerful, affectionate, expressive, and quite kind.

Sanemi is practically its opposite.

It is possible that:

• You feel somewhat overwhelmed by your enthusiasm.
• Don't know how to respond to your displays of kindness.
• Seems too expressive.
• Respect her as a partner.
  There is not enough evidence to affirm that they have a particularly close relationship.

Sanemi and Rengoku share a strong personality, although they are very different emotionally.

Rengoku is enthusiastic, open, and optimistic.

Sanemi is reserved, aggressive, and suspicious.

He probably respected her determination and her skills as Pilar.

We don't have too many scenes that allow us to know a deep friendship between the two, so it's important not to exaggerate their closeness.
Shinobu Kocho (Pillar of the Insect)
Shinobu has a personality quite different from Sanemi's.

She uses a smiling, polite, and sarcastic attitude, while Sanemi usually directly expresses her irritation.

Their relationship is not too explored, but they share the work as Pilares.

Sanemi probably recognizes his abilities, although the way he communicates can be irritating to him.
Muichiro Tokito (Pillar of the Mist)
Their relationship is not very developed either.

Sanemi can seem rather gruff in front of Muichiro, who is usually distracted, distant, and inexpressive.

However, he recognizes his abilities as a hunter.

During the final battle, the two fight against extremely powerful enemies.
Kanae Kocho (former Pillar of the Flower)
Kanae had a kind and compassionate personality.

There is not much information about his personal relationship with Sanemi, but they were part of the same environment as Pilares.

Her character was probably quite a contrast to his.

Initial
distrust At first, Sanemi has a rather hostile attitude towards Tanjiro.

Why?

Because Tanjiro protects Nezuko, who is a demon, something Sanemi finds unacceptable.

During the meeting of the Pillars:

• Question Tanjiro's behavior.
• You consider it too naïve.
• He is angry about his defense of Nezuko.
• Try to prove that Nezuko is no different from other demons.
  However, he later recognizes Tanjiro's determination and his ability as a hunter.

They do not develop a particularly close friendship, but their relationship evolves towards greater respect.
Nezuko Kamado
Their relationship starts off pretty badly.

Sanemi deeply distrusts her for being a demon.

During the meeting of the Pillars, he arrives to provoke her to see if she would attack a human.

He has no sympathy for Nezuko initially and considers keeping her alive to be dangerous.

After Nezuko proves that she can live together without attacking humans and Kagaya's decision is known, her position changes.

They don't get to have a close relationship, but it's no longer simply an enmity based on their demonic nature.
Zenitsu Agatsuma
There is no very developed personal relationship between the two.

However, considering their personalities, they would probably have some clashes.

Sanemi might:

• Be irritated by his screams.
• Losing patience with their complaints.
• Considering that it is too scandalous.
• Recognize your abilities when you demonstrate your skill as a swordsman.
  Zenitsu, for its part, would likely be intimidated by Sanemi.

Imagine Zenitsu trying to explain something to him for five minutes while Sanemi is already losing his temper!

Nor do they have an important relationship developed in the canon.

But they would be two quite explosive personalities.

• Inosuke is competitive and provocative.
• Sanemi is temperamental and proud.
• Both have a strong inclination towards combat.
• None of them are particularly patient.
  They could end up arguing over any silly thing.

Although Sanemi would probably recognize his physical ability and combat instinct.
Kanao Tsuyuri
Their relationship is not particularly developed.

Sanemi would probably maintain a serious and relatively aloof attitude towards her.

Kanao, who is reserved and unexpressive for much of the story, also does not seem like someone who seeks to initiate unnecessary conversations with him.

There is not enough information to attribute a particular friendship or enmity to them.

Deep
respect This is one of the most important relationships to understand Sanemi outside of his family.

Sanemi deeply respects Kagaya.

Unlike his behavior with other characters, he shows a much more disciplined and respectful attitude towards him.

• Recognize their authority.
• Respect their decisions.
• Trust their leadership.
• Considers it important to fulfill their responsibilities.
• They do not usually question their authority in a disrespectful way.
  Kagaya, for her part, understands that her Pillars are people with different histories and sufferings.

Their relationship shows that Sanemi is capable of respecting and obeying someone when he recognizes their authority and abilities.
Very important
friendship Masachika was a fundamental person in Sanemi's life.

He was his companion during his early years as a demon hunter.

The interesting thing is that Masachika did not treat him as someone monstrous or unpleasant because of his character.

He recognized their efforts and their abilities.

• I accompanied him during missions.
• He was confident in his abilities.
• He shared with him the dangers of being a hunter.
• He cared about him.
• He was one of the first people with whom Sanemi developed an important companionship.
  Masachika ended up dying during a confrontation with a demon.

His death deeply affected Sanemi.

This loss also helps to understand why Sanemi has such a hard time establishing close bonds: each important person she loses reinforces her fear of experiencing that pain again.
