Top 50 Strongest Demon Slayer Characters Of All Time

 

Demon Slayer is an amazing anime that got the recognition and love that it deserves. Apart from its surreal animation and lucid motion, the series also consists of some incredible characters that can entertain a wide variety of audiences.

 

And being the action-shounen anime that it is, Demon Slayer is bound to have some super strong characters. So today, we will be taking a look at some of them and trying to figure out the best out of the rest.

 

This is the Top 50 Strongest Demon Slayer Characters list. I hope you enjoy it!

 

 

1. Yoriichi Tsugikuni

 

 

This one is pretty easy. It has been explicitly stated in the anime that Yoriichi is the strongest Demon Slayer to ever exist.

 

He was the one who started the killing techniques we know by the name of Breathing Techniques. And his excellence was unmatched.

 

In fact, even to this day, he is said to be the strongest Demon Slayer to ever exist. And that would explain why he is ranked so high on our list.

 

He is a monster on the battlefield. And there's no denying that no one can match his strength and power.

 

Not even the Demon Lord Muzan himself. And when you are so strong that your Memory scares the main villain, your prowess is quite self-explanatory.

 

 

2. Muzan Kibutsuji

 

 

He is the main antagonist of the entire series. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Muzan Kibutsuji. He is the first demon to ever exist and is known for his unreal strength and potential in the series.

 

It has been stated that Muzan is so strong that no other demon comes even close to matching him in a battle.

 

And most of them got their strength using his blood. This would explain why he is placed on such a high pedestal in the series.

 

We haven't seen him in the anime just yet. In action, that is. However, he is definitely a Monster in the manga and you wouldn't wanna miss out on his insanity at all.

 

 

 

3. Tanjiro Kamado

 

 

While the anime fans might be surprised as to how Tanjiro is placed so high on this list, the manga fans know exactly why he is here.

 

In the manga, our boy manages to become a Demon Lord himself. And that makes him something completely different.

 

And when I say something completely different, I mean it. Tanjiro became the bad guy who will kill anyone and everyone to attain what he wishes.

 

And that's why he started to get appreciation from the fandom and its members. However, in battle, he used Sun Breathing so effectively that his skills far surpassed any Hashira in the show.

 

And with such prowess, Tanjiro shaped the series and himself forever.

 

 

 

4. Kokushibo

 

 

This man is a freak of nature. And there's no way you can ignore that. Kokushibo is one of the side characters in the show who serves as the Rank 1 Upper Moon in the series.

 

It has been stated that this man goes up against some of the strongest demons and demon slayers, only to consume them after the battle.

 

In terms of sheer skills and experience, he is unreal. And we haven't seen him in the anime yet.

 

However, once he shows up, things won't be looking all that great for anyone else. There's a reason why people love this series so much.

 

It is characters like Kokushibo that add fun and spice to the series which will make us lose our minds.

 

 

 

5. Gyomei

 

 

Known to be the strongest Hashira alive, we have Gyomei. He is the Stone Pillar in the series and serves as one of the finest characters in the series.

 

And apparently, he is one of the most experienced Demon Slayers as well. The show has portrayed his excellence and proficiency with respect to strength and powers.

 

However, that's just the surface. He is a special man on his own. And that's because he is visually impaired.

 

However, he is still a refined warrior because he managed to strengthen all his other senses so well that he doesn't need eyes at all.

 

Moreover, it has been stated that he doesn't have a Katana and instead uses a completely different weapon that makes him physically lethal.

 

 

 

6. Doma

 

 

He is one of the most handsome characters in the entire series. And there's no denying that his looks just portray his level of strength and power to the viewers.

 

Doma is the second-highest moon in the series. And as some assume that he is just slightly behind Kokushibo to become the number 1.

 

In the anime, it was hinted that he was the 6th Upper Moon back in the day. However, with the passage of time, he rose in rank.

 

And that happened either by him improving his physical strength or by the death of other Demons. All in all, Doma is the havoc that can't be contained without either one of the characters mentioned above.

 

Fighting him is a battle for life.

 

 

 

7. Akaza

 

 

This man is a monster. And in the anime, he has been recognized as the one who took down Kyojiro Rengoku.

 

He is Akaza. Akaza is the third-ranked upper moon whose strength is absolutely gorgeous. It is stated in the anime and manga that he is the only Demon who doesn't use a weapon.

 

While the anime fandom hates him altogether, his popularity comes from his battle against Rengoku. And that battle was absolutely magnificent.

 

Nothing was able to top that at the time of its execution. And there's a reason why the Demon Slayer movie became the most financially successful film of all time.

 

People loved the characters that played in the story and Akaza was one of them.

 

 

 

8. Sanemi Shinazugawa

 

 

Remember that guy who stabbed Nezuko in her box with a sword? Yeah, that's Sanemi. And I won't lie, Sanemi was one of the most hated characters at one point in time.

 

And that was because of his ruthlessness with Nezuko and Tanjiro. However, soon enough, we realize his backstory. And things flipped immediately.

 

Sanemi is one of the most impressive characters in the show who happens to have an extremely disheartening life before he became the Wind Hashira.

 

However, apart from his past, his present is also impressive as he is known to be one of the most skilled Hashiras in the entire series.

 

This man is a freak of nature on the battlefield.

 

 

 

9. Giyu Tomioka

 

 

Tomioka is the first demon Slayer to appear in the series. And that's quite something considering that he serves as the model figure for Tanjiro and his team.

 

Giyu is one of the Hashiras who is known for using water breathing. Tanjiro got his breathing style from the teacher of Giyu himself who is known as Urokodaki.

 

This man is quite impressive with his skills. Everything about him is sleek, captivating, and fascinating. The most insane moment about Giyu was his fight against Rui.

 

In that battle, he used the 11th form of Water Breathing and took out the demon without breaking a sweat.

 

And that was the moment when Tomioka shaped his strength and prowess for the audience.

 

 

 

10. Kyojuro Rengoku

 

 

This man is a legend. And that's not me saying this. It is the community that looks up to him and his character.

 

Kyojiro Rengoku was the Flame Hashira in the series. And he was the one who saved the Mugen Train and went against Rank 3 Upper Demon Akaza.

 

His battle was a feast for the viewers. And that's the exact reason why Demon Slayer Mugen Train became the highest-grossing anime film of all time.

 

This man was not only motivational, but also strong, captivating, and inspiring. The sheer skill and strength that he portrayed during his time as a Demon Slayer were unreal.

 

And his vision for being a human is what makes him worthy of this rank on our list.

 

 

 

11. Muichiro Tokito

 

 

Although he may seem absent-minded all the time, this man is something completely unexpected. He is one of the Pillars in the Demon Slayer Corps and serves as the Mist Hashira in the series.

 

It is assumed that Muichiro is a prodigy whose skills are second to none. He was the Hashira who was remarked by Uzui for becoming so strong in a matter of two months.

 

That's right ladies and gentlemen. Muichiro became a Hashira in a matter of two months. And he is just as young as Tanjiro and the gang.

 

Now you know why he is placed so high. As time goes by and he practices more and more, this man will shape himself to become a beast in the story.

 

And that's why he is so important.

 

 

 

12. Tengen Uzui

 

 

Uzui Tengen is the Sound Hashira in the series who served his role in the second season of the franchise.

 

He was the one who went up against Gyutaro and Daki who serve as the 6th Rank Upper Moon Demons in the show.

 

However, Tengen gained recognition in the anime community thanks to his flashiness and wives. Apart from countless memes that place the idea of having multiple wives, Tengen is also known for his excellence in the sense of sound.

 

And that is just the beginning of his character. As time passes by, we see him perform more and more impressive feats that rank him high in the minds of the viewers and characters that play within the show.

 

 

13. Mitsuri Kanroji

 

 

Although we are yet to see from her, Mitsuri is one of the most crucial characters in the series.

 

She is the one who serves as the Love Hashira and uses what is known as Love Breathing. This Breathing Technique is branched from Flame breathing and that's why she is just as impressive as his model Kyojiro.

 

We will be seeing her insane performance in the next season of Demon Slayer, along with Muichiro. However, based on what we know so far, she is a lot more impressive than how she was when we first met her.

 

Therefore, Mitsuri is a character you wouldn't wanna overlook if you are in search of some incredibly strong beings in the series.

 

 

14. Obanai Iguro

 

 

This man is yet another beast when it comes to his strength and fighting prowess. Although we haven't seen him in action just yet, in the manga, he is a force of nature.

 

Obanai Iguro is one of the Hashiras in the series who uses a special type of breathing technique known as Serpent Breathing.

 

And this breathing technique makes him one of the strongest characters in the entire franchise. Apart from his excellence as a warrior, he is also recognized for his character and values.

 

Just like Sanemi, he is also misunderstood by the audience. And his personality will be unveiled with the passage of time.

 

Soon enough, people will know how strong he is on the battlefield.

 

 

15. Shinobu Kocho

 

 

She is the Insect Hashira of the Demon Slayer corps. And right now, she is walking on the path of her sister.

 

Being a sadist, Shinobu may not seem all that interesting at first. However, that's just how things went for her.

 

In the anime, she is a special kind of Demon Slayer that uses poison to kill her enemies instead of beheading them.

 

And this is why she is appreciated so much within the series. All the Demon Slayers have something or the other going on for them.

 

And Shinobu is no exception. She is also known for being a fan favorite in the series. And with all these feats in place, Shinobu serves as the woman of quality and value that you would want in your storyline.

 

 

16. Kanao Tsuyuri

 

 

Kanao and her excellence are quite sensible considering her background. After all, she was raised by the Flower pillars in the series.

 

She is one of the lead characters who use insect breathing. And she was nurtured by Kocho Kanae as well as Kocho Shinobu.

 

Therefore, she has been claimed as one of the strongest amongst the new generation of Demon Slayers. And because of her stoic attitude, she is able to use all her energy and focus to become the best version of herself.

 

This goes to show how insane she can be if she gets enough training over time. And that's what makes her worthy of this spot on our list.

 

If you went up against her in battle, you will have a hard time surviving as a Demon.

 

 

17. Zenitsu Agatsuma

 

 

Agatsuma Zenitsu has always been the problem child in the series. However, he is also the one who portrays the highest degree of strength in the series.

 

He is known for using Thunder Breathing, which he inculcated from the previous Thunder Hashira. However, because of his limitations, he is only able to use one breathing form.

 

And that's what makes him unique. He will take down his enemies using the same move over and over.

 

And it's the sheer practice of that move that makes him worthy of being one of the finest Demon Slayers in the series.

 

If you are against him, you can't outspeed him. He is unreal.

 

 

18. Inosuke Hashibira

 

 

Inosuke is the most entertaining character in the entire series. No questions asked. And that's why he is also the most prevalent one as well.

 

Inosuke is known for using beast breathing, a completely unique form of Breathing that hasn't been seen by anyone else.

 

He is recognized for his boar mask and aggressive personality. However, over time he has become a lot more rational and focused on his life and the battles he fights.

 

His backstory has a lot of darkness in it. And the boar mask speaks for itself. However, in battle, this man has proven that his past isn't going to define the level of excellence that he may have in the future.

 

Beast Breathing is going to become even more lethal.

 

 

19. Genya Shinazugawa

 

 

Genya Shinazugawa is the brother of Sanemi and is known to have just as much aggression as him. This man and his capabilities are all focused on the heat that he possesses within himself.

 

It's the insane hatred and dismay towards demons that give him strength on the battlefield. And he has been taken in by none other than the strongest Hashira alive, Gyomei Himejima.

 

You know you will become a fine warrior when you learn from the best. And that's the reason why Genya is so impressive in the series.

 

And with what happened to him in his past, we won't be seeing a character like him in anime anytime soon.

 

Let's hope for his portrayal in the anime.

 

 

20. Hantengu

 

 

This demon stands as one of the upper moons. However, he is a lot different than the others. He is the upper rank 4 who is known for his body that stays in a constant state of fear.

 

Hantengu is the one who has a completely different outlook on his life and the purpose that he serves in it.

 

If we talk about his raw strength, that's quite focused on his ability to manipulate flesh. Moreover, he is able to create small versions of himself that possess some insane powers within them.

 

Needless to say, he gets weaker with every division of his own body. But having such a game-changing technique at his disposal makes him worthy of a high rank on our list.

 

 

21. Gyokko

 

 

This man is formless. And as hideous as he may appear, he can still cause a lot of havoc and trouble for all those around him.

 

Gyokko is one of the lead characters in the series who is known for his upper moon rank of 5.

 

And that allows him to outperform most other demons. He is able to regenerate to an extremely fast degree and has the ability to manipulate his own flesh.

 

And that's just the beginning of his character. He is also able to move extremely quickly and transform into his true form which makes him even more dangerous.

 

He is a monster that can cause a lot of trouble for anyone and everyone in the series. And that's why he is ranked here.

 

 

22. Nakime Otokawa

 

 

While her powers may not seem all that insane at first, she is definitely capable of changing the odds in her favor.

 

Nakime is one of the minor antagonists in the series who has a specific style of fighting. She fights in a fortress that seems to be endless in its space and size.

 

And within that fortress, she can manipulate and create various entrances and exits. Moreover, she can shift the room and play around like it's a Rubik's cube.

 

In that fortress, fighting her without losing your mind is essentially impossible. And that's why she is placed so high on our list.

 

She deserves more recognition from fans.

 

 

23. Gyutaro

 

 

He gave the sound Hashira a run for his money. And that's why he deserves to be standing there on our list.

 

Gyutaro is part of the Upper Moon 6. And he is the stronger half of the duo. Gyutaro had a miserable past and his ugly appearance made him the man that he is right now.

 

Over time, he became an extremely strong demon. And the fact that he went toe to toe with none other than Uzui Tengen is insane.

 

Within the anime, Uzui manages to defeat Gyutaro with his skills. However, it takes him a ton of effort and pain to do so.

 

And when that happens, he ends up losing a lot in the fight. This explains why you shouldn't mess with Gyutaro even if you are a Hashira.

 

 

24. Daki

 

 

She is the second half of the 6th rank in the upper moons. And she is arguably the weakest upper moon in the series.

 

However, that doesn't change the fact that she still packs a punch when the situation calls for it. Daki is one of the antagonists in the series who happens to be an extremely beautiful demon.

 

She fights alongside her brother Gyutaro and together, they form the upper moon rank 6. Daki is nasty in her approach.

 

And that's why she goes on to play with her opponents as much as she can. When things get out of hand, Daki calls out her brother and battles alongside her.

 

And that's where the true strength of the Upper Moon 6 comes into play.

 

 

25. Enmu

 

 

Let's talk about the lower rank 1, Enmu. She is one of the strongest characters to exist in the series and serves as the primary antagonist of the show.

 

Enmu is a demon known for his ability to manipulate dreams. More specifically, he is able to shape the dreams of all those who go up against him and gives them the most blessed dreams as well as the most horrific ones.

 

His character is quite psychopathic and that was one of the reasons why Muzan spared him when he was dealing with the other lower ranks.

 

Soon enough, we get to know that Enmu is taken down by Tanjiro and Inosuke. However, that entire act took a lot more effort than we would have imagined.

 

 

26. Kaigaku

 

 

Coming in as the succeeding upper moon 6, we have Kaigaku. In the realm of Demon Slayer, Kaigaku was the one who took over the spot that Gyutaro and Daki had.

 

And he is insane at his skill. He is known for his ability to manipulate electricity. And so, that makes him worthy of standing next to some of the most refined electric users in the show.

 

He also has access to Thunder Breathing and his skills within that segment are just as impressive. Moreover, the reason why he is one of the finest warriors in the entire show is because of the fact that he can have his own way with electrical forces.

 

And his speed is beyond impressive. No wonder he is placed so high.

 

 

27. Nezuko Kamado

 

 

Nezuko is a surprise entry to a lot of us, mainly because it wasn't even hinted that she will be the one who will outperform everyone on the battlefield.

 

However, she has proved her prowess time and time again in the series. During the battle with Rui, she used her blood demon art for the first time.

 

And that allowed her to assist Tanjiro in almost slaying down Rui's head. And we saw her become an absolute beast during the entertainment district arc where she gave Daki a run for her money.

 

She needs some training on her own. And if that happens at the correct moment, she can become a completely new being.

 

 

28. Rui

 

 

Rui is the lower rank 5 demon in the series. And his skills are just as impressive as you might expect from someone of his stature.

 

He is one of the first breathtaking villains in the series. And his skills made the audience lose their minds.

 

Although they may not be as threatening now, at one point in time, those spider fibers that Rui had, made him a freak of nature.

 

Our boy Tanjiro lost his sword because of fact that he wasn't able to cut through Rui's sword.

 

People look up to the era when Rui was a menace. And his backstory was also heartwarming and entertaining for the audience, making him worthy of all the love and support he gets from the fans.

 

 

29. Kanae Kocho

 

 

Kanae is one of the side characters in the show who happens to be the late Flower Hashira. Now here's the deal.

 

We know that she was a Hashira during her reign. However, we don't have a clear image of her strength in the series just yet.

 

Since Shinobu is a relatively weak Hashira, it is tough to determine how strong Kanae was during her prime.

 

However, there's no denying that she would have been quite impressive considering that you need at least a kill count of 50 demons to qualify as a Hashira or you need to kill one of the Twelve Kizuki.

 

Do that and you will become a Hashira. However, doing either of these tasks is extremely difficult and that's why Kanae is worthy of this rank.

 

 

30. Rokuro

 

 

This demon was quite strong during his moments. Unfortunately, we don't get to see his action in the series.

 

He is one of the Twelve Kizuki. And his rank is the Lower Moon Two. If you remember correctly, Muzan killed ranks 6, 4, 3, and 2.

 

This is why we never get to see Rokuro in action. However, it has been stated in the manga that this man was quite a havoc during his prime.

 

We don't have any idea about him just yet. But the fact that he stood as the Upper Rank two goes on to prove how much potential he would have had in his ace moments.

 

This is why Rokuro is a notable character in the show.

 

 

31. Wakuraba

 

 

This man is the lower rank 3 in the series. And just like the previous entry, he was taken down by Muzan when he was angry.

 

However, just like Rokuro, it would be a mistake to ignore the potential strength that this man would have had.

 

He is one of the side characters who was a Human at one point in time. He seems to have had enhanced speed, regeneration, and his original blood demon art.

 

While we don't have a good idea about his blood demon art, we do know that his regeneration skills and his ability to move were good enough to make him one of the strongest demons in the entire world.

 

And that's why Muzan gave his blood to him in the first place.

 

 

32. Mukago

 

 

This character is also one of the misfortunate who ended up losing their life while facing Muzan. However, this is just the surface of her character.

 

Mukago is one of the background characters in the show that gained a lot of attention during the Rehabilitation Training Arc.

 

In terms of appearance, it wouldn't be wrong to say that she looked quite a lot like Rui. However, it is assumed that her backstory must have been quite different from Rui or anyone from his family.

 

Moreover, she is assumed to be a strong demon who would have had the capability to pack a punch during the initial arcs of the series.

 

However, we don't have any evidence to cross-check that and so, Mukago has to settle for this rank.

 

 

33. Tamayo

 

 

She is grace on her own. And although we haven't seen her fight yet, there's no denying that she is quite a qualitative woman in the series.

 

Tamayo is one of the side characters that appeared as a surprise to the viewers. In the entire series, Tamayo, Nezuko, and Yushiro are the only demons that don't rely on killing humans for their survival.

 

And that's what makes Tamayo so special. Moreover, she was turned into a demon by none other than Muzan himself.

 

However, he wasn't able to control her completely and so, she decided to pursue her career as a doctor and continue researching Demons and their capabilities.

 

This is why she is so respected in the show.

 

 

34. Spider Demon Father

 

 

Now it's time to talk about the Spider Demon Family, starting with Spider Demon Father. He is the one with a scary face and a muscular body.

 

In the anime, he served as the father of the family that was created by Rui. And during his battle with Tanjiro and Inosuke, he was able to give them a run for his money.

 

Out of all the demons who served as the family members, Father was the strongest. Needless to say, that's next to Rui himself.

 

Moreover, his capabilities have shown brute strength and insane agility, making him worthy of higher ranks on this list.

 

However, since he was taken down by our boy Giyu, we can't know for sure.

 

 

35. Spider Demon Son

 

 

Time to talk about the Spider Demon Son, ladies, and gentlemen. He is the one who served as the younger brother to Rui.

 

And his appearance is basically a spider with a human head. He was the one who had red dots on his face, just like his other family members.

 

And in the anime, he was able to cause a decent amount of tension among the characters. Needless to say, people looked up to him at times but he wasn't able to sustain his standards since he was also taken down by the Demon Slayer corps.

 

However, that doesn't change the fact that he was indeed a force to be reckoned with at one point in time.

 

 

36. Spider Demon Mother

 

 

Out of all the Demon family members, she was the one who had the biggest impact on the audience.

 

And that's what makes her so special for the series. She was the one who served as the Demon Mother.

 

And she portrayed the misery that other demons were facing as they were associated with Rui. Her portrayal was so heartwarming that Tanjiro decided to give her a smooth and painless death.

 

And during her final moments, she was happy that Tanjiro ended her miserable life. This is why people looked up to her character.

 

And that's the reason she is placed here on our list.

 

 

37. Kamanue

 

 

He is the one who is ranked as the lower moon 6. And that's why he placed last on our list with Kizuki.

 

However, the fact that he was part of the lower moon means that he was only weaker than 11 demons in the entire world.

 

And during the start of the series, we were portrayed with a ton of demons that shaped the series for us.

 

Some of them weren't even part of the Twelve Kizuki but still packed a punch. With such a status in place, these characters were bound to be impressive to the audience.

 

And that's why Kamanue would have gotten more appreciation if it wasn't for his untimely murder. He was a demon with potential who didn't get to explore it.

 

 

38. Kyogai

 

 

This demon lost his mind because of the fact that he wasn't one of the Twelve Kizuki anymore. And during the start of the show, he packed a strong punch for our characters.

 

He was one of the minor antagonists who is known as the Room Demon in the series. And that's because his demon art allowed him to launch attacks using the drums on his body.

 

Each drum serves a different purpose and they all portray one or the other form of havoc for the characters.

 

This is why Kyogai was so tough to beat in the series. Fortunately, Tanjiro managed to take him down and ended his career.

 

 

39. Susamaru

 

 

Remember that ball demon who decided that it was a good idea to play volleyball with our main cast? Yeah, that's Susamaru.

 

And she is quite a tough challenge for beginners. She used her super-strong balls to attack the opponents and pack a punch on them.

 

Moreover, she is also able to direct the motion of the balls of her own will. And that's what made her so captivating in the first place.

 

Susamaru managed to cause a lot of trouble for our boys and gave them a run for their money.

 

However, in the end, our boys managed to put an end to her acts. And that's how Susamaru and her existence ceased.

 

 

40. Spider Demon Daughter

 

 

Belonging to the Demon family, we have the Spider Demon Daughter. She is one of the side antagonists in the show who served as her sister for Rui.

 

Out of all the characters present in the story, she was the one who served as the easiest hurdle for anyone and everyone in the series.

 

And that's because she wasn't interested in battle at all. She had her life and was not happy about it.

 

Therefore, she just wanted to have an end to it all. And that's why her character isn't known for her capabilities.

 

However, it is claimed that Spider Demon Daughter was quite strong in terms of skills.

 

 

41. Yahaba

 

 

This man is known for his assistance to Susamaru. And that's why he is placed here on this list.

 

Yahaba is one of the minor antagonists that teamed up with Susamaru to take down Tanjiro and the team.

 

It was his eyesight demon art that allowed Susamura to pack such a lethal punch on the opponents. And if it wasn't for his ability to manipulate objects, the fight would have ended in a completely different manner.

 

That's why Yahaba is a character that you wouldn't wanna miss out on in the series.

 

 

42. Murata

 

 

Although he is one of the side characters in the series, he does have a lot going on for himself.

 

For starters, he uses Water Breathing for battles. But the catch is that he doesn't fight all that often.

 

Instead, he just works as an assistant and helps out the people who do the real fighting. His family was killed by Demons and so, he decided to take them head-on.

 

Unfortunately, he realized that he didn't have what it takes to turn down these demons and so, he wasn't able to hold his own against anyone for that matter.

 

However, he was able to highlight the strength it takes to be a demon slayer.

 

 

43. Horned Demon

 

 

Now we are reaching the part of the list where the demons didn't have any names for themselves. However, they were definitely noteworthy during their arcs.

 

And we start this segment with the Horned demon. He is one of the background villains who was taken down by our main cast.

 

He used to reside in the Tsuzumi Mansion. And as someone who doesn't have a lot going on for himself, he is just a background monster who caused some trouble to others using his abilities.

 

And that's why he is placed here on our list.

 

 

44. Tongue Demon

 

 

He was subjected to Zenitsu's lethal first form. And let's just say that it was quite fun to watch him getting slaughtered in a second.

 

Tongue Demon is the one who went up against Agatsuma Zenitsu and decided to take him down. Unfortunately for him, our boy is a monster in disguise.

 

And it was at that moment that he realized that this isn't going to work. The tongue demon will destroy anyone and everyone in his path.

 

Therefore, the sleeping Zenitsu decided to take matters into his own hands and destroy the opponent in just a single blow.

 

 

45. Hand Demon

 

 

This man is right up against Urokodaki. And that's why he is placed here on our list. The hand demon is named so because of his appearance.

 

His entire body is filled with hands and he has taken down 13 of Urokodaki's students including Sabito. This is why he was a formidable opponent for everyone who entered the exam such as Tanjiro and Zenitsu.

 

Our boys managed to get across him using their skills but this beast goes to show how difficult it is for someone to become a demon slayer in this world.

 

Defeating him is nothing less than an achievement.

 

 

46. Sabito

 

 

He was a ghost in the story. A ghost who added another layer to the show. Sabita is one of the side characters who appeared during the initial episodes of Demon Slayer.

 

It is stated that he was a ghost who served as the assistant to Urokodaki. But all of this happens without words.

 

He went up against Tanjiro multiple times. And most of the time, Sabito was the winner. But the one-time Tanjiro managed to take him down, he was gone for good.

 

Sabito is one of the most creative characters that shaped the philosophical aspect of the series for us.

 

 

47. Makomo

 

 

She is one of the apprentices that served under Urokodaki. And her character gained a lot of attention thanks to her contribution to the show.

 

Makomo is said to be one of the ghosts who assisted Tanjiro on his journey to becoming a proper demon slayer.

 

And that was the inception of our boy. She didn't battle him head-on. However, she did give him proper guidance on achieving better performance.

 

Just like Sabito, she was also gone after Tanjiro secured his victory. But that doesn't change the fact that she had what it takes.

 

 

48. Yushiro

 

 

As much as he admires Lady Tamayo, he is definitely a notable character in the show. Yushiro is one of the side personalities who work alongside Tamayo and assists her on every part of her journey.

 

He is madly in love with her and can do anything and everything to protect her. This is why he is placed here on this list.

 

Despite being a demon, he retains his senses and acts as a human altogether. And it is because of his character that the series got a mysterious touch to its narrative.

 

 

49. Aoi Kanzaki

 

 

She is one of the supporting characters in the series who isn't strong enough to fight demons. And so, she decides to serve the Demon Slayer corps in her own way.

 

Her contribution to the series has been significant considering that she shaped our characters to become as strong as they are today.

 

And it was the basic training that she gave to the main cast that created them into the absolute monsters we know today.

 

The help may be marginal but it was definitely notable enough to earn her a spot on this list.

 

 

50. Swamp Demon

 

 

This demon doesn't really have a lot of strength under his belt. However, he was one of the first to be in the show so he deserves a spot on this list.

 

He was known for being a demon infamous for stealing girls every night. And once the Demon Slayer corps got the intel about him, they decided to send help.

 

Tanjiro went ahead and took him down with no major issue. And that's how this demon's end came to be.

 

However, he still packed a punch during the start of the show.
