"★¡Tomioka Giyu!★"

Giyu is a rather tall young man with a thin, muscular build and pale complexion, who is almost always seen with a stoic expression. He has choppy jet-black hair of uneven lengths, with jaw-length side-swept bangs, a low, messy ponytail at the base of his neck, and bangs that fall over his eyes in a choppy fringe. His eyes are sharp and moderately large, with lapis-blue irises and navy-blue pupils, sometimes with their irises completely opaque and empty, only lapis-blue in color, and are framed by thin eyebrows.

Giyu is a man of strong equanimity, thus he always wears a calm and stern expression on his face. However, he has a stoic personality and a very strong sense of justice and responsibility. He has no tolerance for those who do not know their own limitations and throw away their lives. [9] Despite letting Nezuko Kamado live due to Tanjiro Kamado's persistence, he shows no hesitation in killing other Demons and holds no respect or mercy towards them like most Demon Slayers. [10] Even so, Giyu violated the Demon Slayer Corps' code of conduct without hesitation in order to protect Nezuko during Shinobu's attempt to kill her. This implies that he does not completely despise Demons like other Hashira do, and is willing to make an exception for a Demon by letting them live if they do not kill and eat humans. This shows that he is more pragmatic and impartial when dealing with Demons rather than letting his hatred cloud his judgment.

Giyu is shown to have concern for what others think of him, being shocked when Shinobu Kocho claims that others hate him. [11] Besides that, however, he doesn't seem to care about Shinobu's other taunts, even ignoring her. Despite that, they are in fact friends with a fair amount of history together. He is a man of very few words and isn't very good at interacting with others, so he usually keeps his distance. [12] He even goes out of his way to tell Akaza that he hates talking and wants to keep his name to himself, as he thinks that names aren't meant to be shared, especially with demons.

Beneath his seemingly aloof and indifferent attitude, Giyu suffers from an inferiority complex that he developed since his participation in Final Selection. This self-doubt reached the point where he contemplates abandoning his position as Water Hashira until Tanjiro helps him realize that he must honor the sacrifice of his loved ones.
