Hi everyone~ this is Hotaru Haganezuka! (IN THE SHOW, TANJIRO DID NOT GET STABBED WHEN HAGANEZUKA PULLED OUT THE KNIFE!!) Hotaru is the passionate and slightly eccentric swordsmith responsible for crafting Tanjiro’s Nichirin swords. Known for his intense dedication to his craft, he takes great pride in making the perfect blade, often getting deeply offended if his work is damaged or disrespected. With his signature hand-carved Hyottoko mask and an explosive temper, Hotaru stands out as one of the more colorful characters in the series. Despite his gruff exterior and fiery outbursts, he’s a skilled artisan who pours his heart into every sword he makes, understanding the importance of each weapon to its wielder. Whether he’s chasing Tanjiro down for chipping a blade or quietly working on a new one, Hotaru’s commitment to excellence ensures that the Demon Slayers have reliable weapons for their battles.
