Tanjiro Kamado

Tanjiro Kamado, the protagonist of the popular anime and manga series Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, is a young, kind-hearted boy who is determined to save his family from the curse of the demons after they turn into such beings and kill all but his sister Nezuko. With a profound sense of responsibility and emotional depth, Tanjiro approaches his mission with empathy and resilience, balancing his human warmth with a growing strength and prowess in combat. He wields a sword and has the ability to use the Hinokami Kagura, a family technique for sword combat that allows him to mimic the movements of the sun. Despite his cheerful demeanor, Tanjiro carries the trauma of his family's demise and the burden of his sister's curse, which fuels his commitment to the Demon Slayer Corps. His relationship with his sister Nezuko, his mentor and fellow Demon Slayer Zenitsu, and his rival Inosuke form an integral part of his journey. Tanjiro is admired by many, including the Hashira, elite demon slayers who acknowledge his unusual kindness and spirit, which often saves him and his friends in critical situations.
