My favorite Hashira has to be Gyomei because of how much he values human life and how he brings out the beast within when needed. Giyu is a close second! Without Giyu, we might not even have a story to tell! (He spared Nezuko and allowed Tanjiro to become a Demon Slayer!)

The most tragic backstory, to me, is kind of a tie between Gyomei and Sanemi. Gyomei had to go against his calm demeanor and slay (hold back) a demon with his bare hands only to be blamed for the deaths of the people he was trying to save. Then there is Sanemi, who had to kill his demon mother, after she killed his siblings, only to be called a murderer by the lone surviving sibling.

To the guy who rejected Mitsuri "Ah, i see you're NOT a man of culture"

I don't think Giyu protected Nezuko because of his inferiority or because he has an open mind. I think it's more to do with the fact that nezuko protected tanjiro, just like his sister protected him. He relates them back to his own past and wants to believe in nezuko's sacrifice. If I went through what Giyu did, I'd want to kill all demons. So this is the only believable explanation to me.

The fact Giyuu didn't kill Nezuko and basically saved Tanjiro multiple times, and ended up saving so many others by the end of the manga was crazy. Just love how the mangaka had it weaved in there that he was always important if not the one who helped secure safety for others in the future.

How to be a hashira in a nutshell Step 1:have a sad backstory Step 2:meet oyakata sama Step 3:become very strong Step 4: kill one of the 12 kizuki Step 5:be accepted to be a hashira Congratulations 👏 You became a hashira

Tragedy is the most suitable word for the life of every hashira..i believe that the mangaka does a phenomenal job by creating and adding those amazingly and beautifully written characters into the story.. It is so unique in my opinion that they are not just Characters with insanely huge strength..they are definitely way deeper than that.. Honestly without them demon slayer wouldn't be as amazing as it is right now..

I absolutely LOVE Mitsuri!!! I mean, her backstory is probably seen as boring and not as tragic as the others, which is true, but I think that her backstory is so common and relatable. Just one of many things that make me love mitsuri. Watch out Iguro, I’m coming for your girl.

Actually Misturi's Uniform was made by a pervert even Shinobu had it but ended up burning it in front of the tailor while Misturi was too embarassed to do that , it was in the one wing butterfly novel I think

Hashiras: **Been through sad and tough times** Meanwhile the Demons: *"Finally, something in common...."*

But Rengoku's father only began his drinking and abusive stead after his wife died. In the beginning he was a great father but became a abusive drunk when grief and depression hit him. I'M NOT SAYING HE WAS RIGHT FOR HIS TREATMENT, I'M JUST SAYING HE IS LIKE THAT BECAUSE OF THIS*

my favorite demon slayer is Sanemi he’s shown to be a rude slayer but he has a heart of gold and truly cares for the people around him

Muichiro has gone through a lot at a young age and at first I didn’t care about him that much but when I started to read manga I fell in love with that character he has so much potential,talent and his tragic backstory still make me cry He will always be my fav character

I have total respect now to all hashiras, such tragic lives and deaths😔😔😔

I would have liked to see more of Giyu’s backstory, he’s my favourite Hashira. But the story is just brilliant, I remember getting to vol 16 & seeing “Final Battle” and thought there’s no way, the final battle is starting now?!? With 8 volumes left?!? The anime is going to get totally insane when it gets to that point.

It's still mind blowing that muichiro, was 14, had memory loss, and only picked up a blade for 2 months before becoming a hashira and one of the strongest at that

this my ranking on the saddest backstories 1: Sanemi 2: Obanai 3: Gyomei 4: Muichiro 5: Giyu 6: Shinobu 7: Tengen 8: Kyojuro 9: Mitsuri

*My favorite Hashira is Shinobu Kocho! She is a kind and Loyal soul, Even before her Sister died, she and her sister were a kind duo. Adopting a young Kanao from a cruel world and looked after her, And when Kanae died. Shinobu Continued to work hard and to become stronger. As she wanted to take revenge on the demons who took away almost everyone she loved. But! Even though she despises demons with her whole heart. She still took in Tanjiro, Nezuko, Zenitsu and Inosuke despite them Protecting a young demon. And took care of them, Always there to heal them, always looking out for them when they need it. And the most Girlboss thing of all from her. Was that she was preparing to Kill Douma by sacrificing herself by injecting her body with Wisteria Poison for YEARS!! As she knew she couldn't take down Douma, as he was too strong to take down on her own.* *It just shows how Loyal, Kind, Strong and Determined kind of person that Shinobu is!* *And also, she knew it herself that she wasn't 'Physically' strong enough to slice off a demons head. So, with the knowledge of Medicines and poisons. She soaked her Sword in Wisteria Poisons which is incredibly deadly to demons. Which also makes her stand out to the other Hashira, It just shows her Strong, Smart, Loyal, Kind and Compassionate!* *I'm proud that my Fav died as the Hero who Killed the UpperMoon!*

I have kept my wallpaper as the guy who rejected The love hashira... To remind myself when I am feeling low, that i am not the stupidest guy ever

Giyus story: 2:18 Rengokus story: 10:04 Mitsuris story: 15:04 Obanais story: 21:02 Tengens story: 23:44 Shinobus story: 26:49 Gyomei story: 29:30 Muichiros story: 31:37 Sanemis story: 34:22 This is for the people who were watching to see a certain hashira

I gotta say I love Gyomei!! I love the character trope of the gentle giant along with him being super blunt with his answers and questions! Along with him finding every life previous. Just, beautiful

Tengen may have came out of the series looking the best. Just chilling with his wives and helping guide the next generation.

OK BUT LIKE HOW COULD YOU REJECT MITSURI?! THAT GUY’S A DAMN FOOL, SHE LITERALLY HAS ONE OF THE CUTEST PERSONALITY AND BEST BUST IN THE SERIES 😭😭

The most strong hearted mother in demon slayer Rengoku's mother 💕

Damn I wish the show focused more on the hashira. They’re so bad ass!

I think Sanemi is my favorite. I have no least favorite but Sanemi is my absolute favorite. Then Gyomei and Muichiro. But I do think Giyu is the most important hashira because Without Giyu sparing Nezuko there’s no demon slayer. And without Shinobu the overpowered Doma AND Muzan (yes there was no way of taking down doma tbh) wouldn’t have been defeated. Without Muiciro and Genya Kokushibo (my favorite upper moon) wouldn’t have been defeated. And without Mitsuri, hantegu would’ve escaped. And Tengen is just fine. And I wished rengoku got enough screen time.

obanai, sanemi and gyomei have such sad backstories, from obanai being imprisoned and forced to eat so he could get bigger and could fill up a demon to sanemi having to kill his own mother after she became a demon

"Set you're heart ablaze" -Firey chad🔥

I don't care what others say, the series and characters are top notch. Great video as always!!

At the star sanemi seems like a jerk but later on you understand that in the end of demon slayer it’s sad really, sanemi’s goal is to kill of demons in hopes of giving his brother a better future, but in the end he lost his brother and when he was in limbo he wasn’t able to save his mothers soul cause he didn’t die.

Imagine giyu coming to save tanjiros family earlier, muzan wouldve bodied giyu no doubt🤐

The most tragic backstory is shinobu and muichiro. Shinobu post her parents, her sister, literally every tsuguko shes had execept kanao and muichiro literally lost his memory and past perosonality because of the trauma

what i learned all the hashira are considered by themselves or other's weird or flawed and abnormal or hated but i think that just makes them more determined to win to prove to other's that if they weren't them they couldn't take such great length's to win and protect others

This story reminds me of gyomei. There was a horse a draft horse named Galloway Warrior at a stable I volunteered at as a child. He was huge and made other draft horse look like miniature ponies. He was so gentle tho. A baby bird found his way into his stall and he just kind of looked after him. Eventually tragedy approached and when the baby bird was no longer in his stall he went through a huge depression. I'm always a sucker for a big gentle giant lol

I always felt that Giyu must have felt Tanjiro’s desperation to protect Nezuko as himself would do anything he can to protect his sister and friend. Then he saw Nezuko protective state of Tanjiro and he was touched by her reaction even after she was turned into a demon.

I haven't read the manga yet, but because I'm gonna watch this video anyways, I should buy Demon Slayer manga. Yes, I will do that.

Lets be true - Sanemi , iguro and akaza have saddest backstory .

See the fact Nezuko was able to resist Sanemi's blood despite him having Murechi blood is an amazing feat

This was a great video! I really love the backstory of All Hashira’s.

Every other Hashira's backstory: *everyone they love is dead* Rengoku backstory: my father sucks as a dad. Mitsuri's backstory: accept me, NOW

I absolutely love how the mangaka put a lot of little details to each and every character. How they all are connected to build an awesome story as Demon slayer as it is!! Hatts off 🙌❤

Giyu Tomioka is my favorite hashira, wow he sure lived a sad life, not to mention everyone hating him and all, poor guy😔💔

Nice video your videos are clear and really enjoyable keep it up

The top of the tippy when it comes to this Mt. Rushmore anime. Keep up the good work, you're appreciated.

Thankyou so much for making these great videos, I really love them:">💕✨

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

Love ur great content keep it up!

Love the video keep up the great work

Perfect upload time I was very bored thank you for stopping my boredom for a bit

One of my personal head cannons with Rengoku is that he suffers through similar inferiority complex as Giyuu along with serious depression, possibly even suicidal. He just learned to hide it behind a smile. Think about it a dead mom, an alcoholic dad that is physically and mentally abusive, I know he changed of course, having to take the hashira title from his dad so the family name doesn't get ruined as well as taking the brunt of his dad's abuse. Who wouldn't get depressed? However, he hides it behind a smile for everyone else's sake. Some people are good at hiding depression behind a smile and know how to uplift others., Robin Williams being a good example. Everything gets put on his shoulder once mom dies and he does seem to miss her., it wouldn't be surprising that through all that pressure he would feel suicidal. It would even be why he smiles before he dies as well. He no longer has that pressure on him. I also believe that this is the reason his dad changed after his death. He realized that it was his fault in a way. If he had not drank so much and retired as the flame hashira he would have died instead of his son.

Yay!! I know this is gonna be great

When uproar uploads, you know you can finally rest at ease and have a good day

Sabito would have made a good Demon Slayer just like Rengoku did on the train Sabito didn't let a single person die during the final selection👏🏾

Fun fact: the kid who found the demon and made a deal with him, was actually Kaigaku the new uppermoon 6 and he also bullied Zenitsu

oh my god thanks for this man i have been waiting for this

I think Rengoku is not only the main Hashira with the shortest appearance but the biggest impact in the whole series, but in any storyline in general. Thanks for the great video @animeuproar 😁

Gyomei's power and appearance is very similar to Guts from berserk. A pure powerhouse. And when he gets angry had a contorted a violent face. Its very cool

Love the vid! Can you do an all upper rank backstories video?

I NEEDED THIS

My favourite hashira is muichiro he had a really sad and tragic story and he is also a descendant of upper moon 1 and how the mui in his name means he can bring out infinity power to protect other and if he was older he would be definitely the strongest hashira

Just finished the manga ...and this is just a master piece

Thanks for making these videos

Love this channel and rewatching older videos 👍🏾👍🏾 even though I read the manga multiple times 😂😂

i’m really in a tie between sanemi, iguro and gyomei with the most tragic and fcked up backstory. it’s insane they haven’t gone insane over it, it’s honestly so traumatising :/

Saving this video for when new seasons come out. The next season will be based on the Mist and Love pillar so I’m going to only watch their backstories for now. +Rengoku and Tengen

This was dope 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Great video 🔥

There's a small error in the Rengoku part of your video. Shinjuro was a kind and supportive man before his wife died, he only became an abusive drunkard after the death of his wife.

All my love and favor goes to mitsuri 🥰

Amazing

Loved this vid~

Everyone before watching this: *Haha giyu lonely haha haha loser* Everyone after watching this: Water breathing 12th form: SHREDDING TEARS! *Starts crying*

Giyuu and Tanjirou friendship is pretty underrated. I love the mentor/student/brotherly bond between them. Giyuu is pretty much the unofficial memeber of their chaotic group along with Genya

Your videos are amazing I love demon slayer so much

Amazing video... No words to say.

Demon Slayer: the series where you can toss a coin over your should in a crowd of characters, and whatever person it hits is guaranteed to have a tragic backstory. But unlike most other series, this one has many emotional gut punches, and feels very genuine with its tragedies. And I love the hell outta all of it

My favourite is muichiro, then giyuu- sanemi. I really think goyemi is underrated.ln anime uzui is amazing. His batman eyes🤣🤣🤣. I also feel its underrated that giyuu refer two random orphan kids to his own master that's very kind hearted decision. That was really sweet...and obanai has the saddest backstory and he is cute too.

amazing

This is an amazing video and I love your content. Do you think you can incorporate the Video Chapters Preview? I’d love to rewatch while going straight to Muchirou’s story and then skipping to Giyuu’s, or some other combination.

Rengoku: It’s over, that train demon is dead. Let’s head home everyone. Akaza: lol. Square up.

My Favourite is Muchiro bc why not?

Yes Been Waiting For This One Love How You Do Piece By Piece Back Story 😁😁😁.

I love theese vid!!!!

And also there Lives have changes thanks to the Kindhearted Kagaya Ubuyashiki, Oyakata-sama that really shows how truly Nice he actually is. They respect him because they really just Respect him that Much.

I know I’m late, but Giyu has more than earned his title as the water pillar. He surpassed his teacher and saved a demon who was able to regain her humanity!

ahhh TENGEN is such a man when it comes to loving his wives. I love their relationship ✨💕 Btw, tengen is flamboyantly handsome ngl

Keep up the great content!❤❤

My favorite Hashira is Kyojuro, he radiates warmth (both figuratively and literally). He values human life to such an extent that he would sacrifice his body for others and fight through excruciating pain to make others feel safe. He would never give up, no matter the circumstances, no matter the consequences, and *begins to salute* he was a TRUE CHAD....*beings to cry*

Could you imagine that if the Demon Slayers lost?

Terrific 💯

this is so cool

YES THE FLAMING CHAD RENGOKU!!!!!! VERY ✨FLAMBOYANT✨

You forgot the sad part that the three kids who Gyomei took care of who ran off weren’t running to get away but we’re trying to help like one was trying to get a weapon and another was trying to get help and he didn’t know this until his death

love the vid

you are the best anime explainer keep uploading

Wow Sanmei having the rare blood makes it so much cooler when Nezuko refuses his blood.

I've completed the manga but I'm still watching these videos just so I don't forget and then I can tell these stories to my grandchildren(when I get em, that is. I'm still a teen)

I’m subbed and have notifications on
