Zenitsu Agatsuma (我 (あが) 妻 (つま) 善 (ぜん) 逸 (いつ) Agatsuma Zen’itsu^?) is one of the main characters of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and along with Inosuke Hashibira, a travelling companion of Tanjiro Kamado and Nezuko Kamado. He is also a Demon Slayer in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Appearance

Zenitsu is a young boy of average height with fair skin and downward-sloped, worried-looking eyes that fade from soft brown to gold. He has short, yellow hair of varying lengths, cutting off squarely at the ends where it fades to a darker orange color, that falls in front of his face in uneven bangs, loosely resembling a bowl cut. Before he became a Demon Slayer, Zenitsu’s hair was originally black, but it turned the color it is currently when he was struck by lightning during his training.^[2]

For some time following the battle at Mount Natagumo, his limbs temporarily shrunk due to Son’s poison but were able to return to normal afterward thanks to the medicine given to him by Shinobu Kocho.^[4]

He wears a paler brown version of the standard Demon Slayer uniform, which consists of a dark brown gakuran jacket, a white belt around his waist and hakama pants that extend, as well as his signature white-triangle patterned, yellow and orange gradient haori. As well as this, Zenitsu also sports a pair of Kyahan, tied at the front in 3 white bows, with the same pattern as his haori, pale brown tabi socks and white-laced zōri.

Personality

Zenitsu is cowardly, weak-willed, and anxious, often claiming that he doesn’t have long to live due to the dangerous job of being a Demon Slayer. He has rather low self-esteem despite his talent and strength, even considering himself useless, evident when he couldn’t believe he had slain a demon and tricked himself into instead believing that it was Shoichi, even though the latter was a young child who didn’t possess any form of skill.^[5] Zenitsu is in a constant state of fear and he frequently tries to run away at the sight of danger, claiming he wants to live a modest, normal life, instead of that of a Demon Slayer. Due to this, Zenitsu screams and shouts a lot, much to the annoyance of the people around him. He is also shown to be pessimistic at times, especially during Hashira Training where he lashed out at Tanjiro and Inosuke for viewing the training positively.

In spite of his weaknesses, Zenitsu desires to live up to the expectations others have set for him and will try his hardest when he needs to. He holds great respect and admiration towards his comrades and his deceased teacher, Jigoro Kuwajima, and his inner focus and drive in avenging him help to wash away his cowardice and second thoughts when he is in a pinch. Zenitsu also hates himself for how cowardly and incompetent he is, genuinely striving to better himself.

Zenitsu is also shown to be something of a wannabe womanizer, stemming from a desire to not be single should he be killed. He tends to hit on girls who he thinks are cute and asks them to marry him, much to their annoyance.^[6] This womanizing nature is shown to override his docile and quiet personality, particularly when he believes his comrades are «flirting» with cute girls; he would snap and goes in long hysterical rants and complaints. Zenitsu is shown to have a strong attraction to Nezuko, openly expressing his affection for her and always rushing to protect her as if on instinct. During these times, he is also shown to become physically aggressive, lashing out at people in frustration.^[7] Though, despite his shallow behaviour in this regard, Zenitsu does show to respect women, telling Daki to let go of a girl that Daki nearly tore the ear off of, and later demanded her to apologize.

As the only one boy in the trio to have grown up in the city, Zenitsu shows more knowledge about how the city works and is constantly embarrassed by his partners’ naivety.

Before the raid on the Infinity Castle, Zenitsu gives off a different, more serious vibe as if he is focused on something important. This development occurred after receiving a letter from Chuntaro, which revealed his master’s death and Kaigaku’s role behind it.^[8] During his fight against Kaigaku, Zenitsu is stern and becomes enraged, causing him to angrily yell at him for disrespecting their cultivator.^[9] His sudden change surprises his ex-senior, as Zenitsu shows a more mature persona compared to his usual cowardice.

Abilities

Overall Abilities: From the beginning, Zenitsu comes off as a talented and skilled Demon Slayer though he denies this. His strength awakens when he is asleep as his nervous demeanour is what normally keeps him from accessing his abilities, making him more sagacious, calm and precise in combat. This allowed him to instantly decapitate the Tongue Demon and defeat Son of the Spider Family by himself. He was later able to defend 3 entire train carts being under attack by Enmu, Lower Rank One, along with Nezuko. A few months after that, he was able to go toe-to-toe with an awakened Daki with the assistance of Inosuke, and later managed to blitz her with Thunderclap and Flash: Godspeed. As further credence to his strength, Zenitsu was able to advance to the highest point of the Hashira Training.

However, the greatest extent of his powers manifests when Zenitsu fights while awake, as he managed to outmatch the new Upper Rank Six, Kaigaku, in speed by himself and was later blitzed and decapitated him before he could react, although he sustained several severe injuries. Moreover, Zenitsu’s initial reluctance to kill Kaigaku, someone he once cared about and looked up to, was the only thing that gave the Upper Rank the initial advantage, hinting that he could have simply killed him from the beginning if he so desired. Later on, he could keep up with and battle the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, albeit while severely weakened by the Anti-Kibutsuji Drug. Nonetheless, Zenitsu’s strength more than likely matched that of the Hashira by the end of the series.

Enhanced Hearing: Zenitsu possesses a heightened sense of hearing, allowing him to detect danger from even the faintest of sounds. With this, he has displayed the ability to decipher layers upon layers of sound in one of the brothels and even in the Infinity Castle. As another testament to his great sound detection ability, he can perfectly replicate any tune he hears on a Shamisen and Koto only after listening to it once for the first time,^[10] achieving a perfect pitch despite having no musical background. Zenitsu’s exceptional hearing also enables him to fight in his asleep, an impressive feat as he has no visual aid and can only use sound to discern his surroundings while keeping up with the attacks of demons.

• Extrasensory Perception: Zenitsu’s hearing allows him to hear and pick up sounds outside the normal range of perception, such as detecting a person’s thoughts, emotions and even their personality just by picking up the subtle sounds they produce. Moreover, he can discern a human from a demon by comparing the sounds they make, which also allows him to determine their strength to an extent as Daki, an Upper Rank demon, has a more terrible sound than normal demons.

Enhanced Strength: Zenitsu has attained amazing physical strength through years of harsh training. Zenitsu can hold down Inosuke Hashibira with his bare hands and throw his entire body by grabbing to and swinging one of his legs.^[11] Most importantly, Zenitsu has incredible leg strength allowing him to jump extremely high and move at blistering speeds to perform his Thunder Breathing techniques. He was also able to damage the body of Muzan, whose body has the highest durability out of all the demons, further testifying his superhuman physical strength.

Immense Speed & Reflexes: Zenitsu is extremely fast, being able to easily move faster than even the eye can see. Even during the beginning of his career as a Demon Slayer, it is plainly obvious that his speed far outclassed that of lesser demons such as the Tongue Demon and Son of the Spider Family. During both skirmishes, neither demon was able to hit Zenitsu when he was actively engaged with the battle and both were completely unable to react to the speed of his attacks. During the battle against Enmu, he was able to save Nezuko from Lower Rank One’s flesh appendages and could slice through many of them before Enmu could react.

As he progresses, his speed has improved to the point that his movements couldn’t be perceived by Upper Rank demons, like Daki and Kaigaku, the former’s reflexes having been amplified multiple times during the fight and latter being a user of the same Breathing Style as Zenitsu. Moreover, Zenitsu could move faster than Kaigaku’s lightning-based Blood Demon Art and cut his neck before the attack reached him. More impressively, Zenitsu could land multiple hits on the imperceptibly fast Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, with his techniques, albeit he was severely weakened then.

Immense Stamina & Endurance: Zenitsu has incredible stamina and endurance. He has been shown to continue fighting even after being affected by lethal poison from the Son Spider Demon that was gradually weakening him and turning him into a spider. He was also able to defend 3 train cars with Nezuko for an extended period of time without tiring out. Later, Zenitsu, along with Inosuke, engaged in combat with Upper Rank Six, Daki, for a relatively long period of time. Even after receiving numerous wounds from the Upper Rank and later getting trapped under rubble, Zenitsu had enough stamina left to unleash his Thunderclap and Flash: Godspeed technique twice; once to get out of the rubble and the second time to blitz Daki.

He was able to continue fighting with Kaigaku even after being on the receiving end of multiple Blood Demon Art-enhanced Thunder Breathing techniques that burned his skin and eventually summon enough power to use his ultimate technique and blitz him. Zenitsu was even able to exert himself for around half an hour during the fight against Muzan, even being able to surpass his limit of only being able to use his Thunderclap and Flash: Godspeed technique twice a day before his legs gave out.

Indomitable Will: In spite of his initial cowardice and reluctance to fight, Zenitsu nonetheless possesses indomitable willpower and spirit. This was displayed when he absolutely refused to let Inosuke kill the demon inside Tanjiro’s box, and protected it to the end despite getting relentlessly beat up by Inosuke. While he was asleep against the battle against Daki, Zenitsu had the willpower to continue fighting despite sustaining numerous slash wounds all over his body and having his feet broken.^[12] Through sheer will and anger, Zenitsu was able to overcome his cowardice and stay awake in battle against demons, shown during his bout with Kaigaku and Muzan, especially in the fight with the latter in which he refused to give up and persisted despite being enervated and injured.

Tactical Intellect: Even when fighting unconscious, Zenitsu has displayed incredible judgement and tactical intellect. When fighting consciously, this ability is fully released. This able was best exhibited during his battle against Upper Rank Six, Daki. When Inosuke made an erroneous deduction of her weaknesses, Zenitsu correctly explicated that all they need to do is keep both demons’ head disconnected to kill them. After his bout with Kaigaku commenced, he was able to clearly think and process his techniques and demonic abilities.

Unconscious Combat: Zenitsu has the ability to fight when he sleeps, which allows him to awaken his true strength. While awake, his nerves and fear cause him to freeze up so he cannot move. When his life is in danger, his nerves and fear grow so strong that he passes out. But while asleep, his nerves are no longer holding him back, allowing him to fight and move with great judgement, precision and skill. His hearing also places a big part in allowing Zenitsu to fight unconsciously, as it enables him to discern his surroundings and the location of his enemies and their attacks. This also allows him to fight even after he falls victim to Enmu’s spell that makes anyone go into deep sleep.

Fighting Style

Master Swordsman: Zenitsu is an incredibly talented swordsman, especially in his proficiency in extremely fast Iaijutsu-like swordsmanship and the Thunderclap and Flash technique, to the point he can create offshoots of the technique and utilize it even while he is asleep. His swordsmanship skill allowed him to fend off dozens of spiders and defend 3 train carts that Enmu was constantly attacking. Zenitsu’s sword wielding skill evolved to the point that he could fight against Upper Rank demons of the Twelve Kizuki and later matched a severely weakened Muzan, implying that his swordsmanship skill has most likely improved to the point that it matched that of the Hashira, the highest-ranked and most powerful swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Breathing Style

Thunder Breathing (雷 (かみなり) の呼 (こ) 吸 (きゅう) Kaminari no kokyū^?): A Breathing Style Zenitsu learned from a cultivator and his teacher, Jigoro Kuwajima, but failed to master all the forms in the swordsmanship style but could only be able to use the first of the six forms in it, known as Thunderclap and Flash. However, Zenitsu has become incredibly proficient in fighting and winning using the first form alone, even creating several variations and modifications to it and being able to successfully perform the technique even while unconscious. Later, Zenitsu even created an entire new form in Thunder Breathing, something only a Hashira, specifically Giyu and Muichiro, has done before. This form allowed him to turn the tables against his opponent, Kaigaku, and overpower and decapitate him instantly.

Techniques

• First Form: Thunderclap and Flash (壱 (いち) ノ型 (かた) 　霹 (へき) 靂 (れき) 一 (いっ) 閃 (せん) Ichi no kata: Hekireki Issen^?)^[5] — The user unsheathes their katana, dashes forward at blinding speeds and decapitates their opponent faster than they can react, before sheathing it back. This technique is extremely reminiscent of Iaijutsu and its movements are described to be akin to «lightning ripping through the air».^[13]
  • Sixfold (六 (ろく) 連 (れん) Rokuren^?)^[14] — An extension of the Thunderclap and Flash technique created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash six times in quick succession while slightly augmenting the power and speed of his dashes.
  • Eightfold (八 (はち) 連 (れん) Hachiren^?)^[15] — An extension of the Thunderclap and Flash technique created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash eight times in quick succession while slightly augmenting the power and speed of his dashes.
  • Godspeed (神 (しん) 速 (そく) Shinsoku^?)^[16] — An extension of the Thunderclap and Flash technique created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash while greatly augmenting the speed of the technique. During the first display of this technique, an unconscious Zenitsu remarked that he mustn’t perform this technique more than two times, otherwise his legs would be rendered useless due to muscle fatigue and exhaustion. However, during the battle against Muzan Kibutsuji, Zenitsu has shown improvement in the proficiency of this technique, allowing him to use it more than twice while still maintaining the power and speed of the technique.

• Seventh Form: Honoikazuchi no Kami (漆 (しち) ノ型 (かた) 　火 (ほの) 雷 (いかづちの) 神 (かみ) Shichi no kata: Honoikazuchi no Kami^?, lit. Seventh Form: Flaming Thunder God)^[17] — The personal creation of Zenitsu Agatsuma. The user dashes forward at blinding speeds and unleashes a singular forward slash at a low stance, which is seemingly accompanied by a yellow Japanese dragon shaped like a lightning bolt.

Game Exclusive Techniques

• First Form: Thunderclap and Flash, Prime (壱 (いち) ノ型 (かた) 　霹 (へき) 靂 (れき) 一 (いっ) 閃 (せん) ・極 (きわみ) Ichi no kata: Hekireki Issen — Kiwami^?)^[18] — A variation of the Thunderclap and Flash created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash with such strength that they crack and uproot the ground beneath them, and tear up the ground afterwards trying to arrest their momentum.. This move can be performed mid-air, which launches the user at an angle towards the ground as they strike.

• Air Spin (空 (くう) 転 (てん) Kūten^?)^[18] — The user delivers a circular spinning slash to send an opponent upwards. Typically, the technique is used to rebound after executing Thunderclap and Flash.

• Encompassing Slash (四 (し) 方 (ほう) 斬 (き) り Shihōkiri^?)^[18] — The user unleashes a 360° horizontal slash that creates a ring of blue electricity around them.

• Lightning Burst (連 (れん) 続 (ぞく) 斬 (き) り払 (はら) い Renzokukiri Harai^?)^[18] — The user unsheathes their blade and performs three arching horizontal slashes at blinding speeds in quick succession. This technique is extremely reminiscent of Iaijutsu.

Equipment

Standard Nichirin Katana: As a Demon Slayer, Zenitsu carries around a standard sized and shaped Nichirin katana with lightning streaks along the entire blade. His sword’s hilt is circular shaped with 4 slight indentations, the center has a silver tone with small triangles and has a golden border. The handle is white with several yellow triangles going down it. The base of the handle is gold with two short, white ribbons hanging off it. With his katana, Zenitsu has a standard sword sheath that is white in color.

• (To Daki) «Before you die, I have a task for you. Apologize to the girl whose ear you nearly tore off. It may be your money that pays for their clothing, food and housing, but those girls aren’t your toys. You won’t get away with this.«^[27]

As well as this, Zenitsu also sports a pair of Kyahan, tied at the front in 3 white bows, with the same pattern as his haori, pale brown tabi socks and white-laced zōri.

Personality[]

Zenitsu comes off as a coward, as he often claims that he doesn’t have long to live due to the dangerous job of being a Demon Slayer. He also has rather low self-esteem despite his strength, even considering himself useless as seen when he couldn’t believe he had slain a demon and tricked himself into instead believing that it was Shoichi, even though the latter was a young child who didn’t possess any form of special demon-slaying ability. Zenitsu is in a constant state of fear and always cries and tries to run away at the sight of danger, claiming he wants to live a modest, normal life, instead of that of a Demon Slayer. But he also likes to tease people when he’s angry. Due to this, Zenitsu screams and shouts a lot, sometimes annoying the people around him. He is also shown to be pessimistic at times, especially during the Hashira Training Arc where he lashed out at Tanjiro and Inosuke for viewing the training positively.

However, despite these weaknesses, Zenitsu still wants to live up to the expectations others set up for him and will try his hardest when he needs to. He holds great respect and admiration towards his comrades and his deceased teacher, Jigoro Kuwajima, and his inner focus and drive in avenging him help to wash away his cowardice and second thoughts when he is in a pinch.

Zenitsu seems to have a strong crush on Nezuko, openly expressing his affection for her and always rushing to protect her as if on instinct. During these times, he is also shown to become physically aggressive, lashing out at them in frustration. Though, Zenitsu does show to respect women, telling Daki to let go of a girl that Daki nearly tore the ear off of, and later demanded her to apologize.

As the only one boy in the trio to have grown up in the city, Zenitsu shows more knowledge about how the city works and is constantly embarrassed by his partners’ naivety.

Before the raid on the Infinity Castle, Zenitsu gives off a different, more serious vibe as if he is focused on something important. This development occurred after receiving a letter from Chuntaro, which revealed his master’s death and Kaigaku’s role behind it. During his fight against Kaigaku, Zenitsu is stern and becomes enraged, causing him to angrily yell at him for disrespecting their cultivator.

Abilities[]

Overall Abilities: From the beginning, Zenitsu comes off as a talented and skilled Demon Slayer, though he denies this. Zenitsu’s true strength awakens when he is asleep, as that’s when his nerves that normally keep him from accessing his true strength give out, making him more sagacious, calm and precise in combat, which allowed him to instantly decapitate the Tongue Demon and defeat the Son Spider Demon by himself. He was later able to defend 3 entire train carts being under attack by Enmu, Lower Rank One, along with Nezuko. A few months after that, he was able to go toe-to-toe with an awakened Daki with the assistance of Inosuke, and later managed to blitz her with Thunderclap and Flash: God Speed. As further credence to his strength, Zenitsu was able to advance to the highest point of the Hashira Training.

However, his true strength seems to manifest when Zenitsu can fight while awake, as he managed to match the new Upper Rank Six, Kaigaku, in power by himself and later blizted and decapitated him before he could react, although he sustained several severe injuries. However, it was displayed that his feelings of regret and melancholy were the only things keeping Zenitsu from immediately killing Kaigaku, his former senior. Moreover, he could keep up with and overpower the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, albeit he was severely weakened by the Anti-Kibutsuji Drug. Nonetheless, Zenitsu’s strength more than likely matched that of the Hashira by the end of the series.

Enhanced Hearing: Zenitsu possesses a heightened sense of hearing, allowing him to detect danger from even the faintest of sounds. Using his superhuman hearing, he has displayed the ability to decipher layers upon layers of sound in one of the brothels and even in the Infinity Castle.

Even at the beginning of the series when he was at his weakest, shown when his speed could evade the attacks of several demons such as the Tongue Demon and Son Spider Demon effortlessly and later blitz them.

Master Swordsman: Zenitsu is an incredibly talented swordsman, especially in his proficiency in extremely fast Iaijutsu-like swordsplay and the Thunderclap and Flash technique, to the point he can create offshoots of the technique and utilize it even while he is asleep. His swordsmanship skill allowed him to fend off dozens of spiders and defend 3 train carts that Enmu was constantly attacking. Zenitsu’s sword wielding skill evolved to the point that he could fight against Upper Rank demons of the Twelve Kizuki and later matched a severely weakened Muzan, implying that his swordsmanship skill has most likely improved to the point that it matched that of the Hashira, the highest-ranked and most powerful swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Swordsmanship[]

Thunder Breathing (雷 (かみなり) の呼 (こ) 吸 (きゅう) Kaminari no kokyū^?): A Breathing Style Zenitsu learned from a cultivator and his teacher, Jigoro Kuwajima, but failed to master all the forms in the swordsmanship style but could only be able to use the first of the six forms in it, known as Thunderclap and Flash. However, Zenitsu has become incredibly proficient in fighting and winning using the first form alone, even creating several variations and modifications to it and being able to successfully perform the technique even while unconscious. Later, Zenitsu even created an entire new form in Thunder Breathing, something only a Hashira, specifically Giyu and Muichiro, has done before. This form allowed him to turn the tables against his opponent, Kaigaku, and overpower and decapitate him instantly.

• First Form: Thunderclap and Flash (壱 (いち) ノ型 (かた) 　霹 (へき) 靂 (れき) 一 (いっ) 閃 (せん) Ichi no kata: Hekireki Issen^?) — The user unsheathes their katana, dashes forward at blinding speeds and decapitates their opponent faster than they can react, before sheathing it back. This technique is extremely reminiscent of Iaijutsu and its movements are described to be akin to «lightning ripping through the air».
  • Sixfold (六 (ろく) 連 (れん) Rokuren^?) — An extension of the Thunderclap and Flash technique created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash six times in quick succession while slightly augmenting the power and speed of his dashes.
  • Eightfold (八 (はち) 連 (れん) Hachiren^?) — An extension of the Thunderclap and Flash technique created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash eight times in quick succession while slightly augmenting the power and speed of his dashes.
  • Tenfold (拾 (じゅう) 連 (れん) Jūren^?) — An extension of the Thunderclap and Flash technique created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash ten times in quick succession while slightly augmenting the power and speed of his dashes.
  • God Speed (神 (しん) 速 (そく) Shinsoku^?) — An extension of the Thunderclap and Flash technique created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash while greatly augmenting the speed of the technique. During the first display of this technique, an unconscious Zenitsu remarked that he mustn’t perform this technique more than 2 times, otherwise his legs would be rendered useless due to muscle fatigue and exhaustion. However, during the battle against Muzan Kibutsuji, Zenitsu has shown improvement in the proficiency of this technique, allowing him to use it more than 2 times while still maintaining the power and speed of the technique.

• Seventh Form: Honoikazuchi no Kami (漆 (しち) ノ型 (かた) 　火 (ほの) 雷 (いかづちの) 神 (かみ) Shichi no kata: Honoikazuchi no Kami^?, lit. Seventh Form: Flaming Thunder God) — The personal creation of Zenitsu Agatsuma. The user dashes forward at blinding speeds and unleashes a singular forward slash at a low stance, which is seemingly accompanied by a yellow Japanese dragon shaped like a lightning bolt.

Simp Breathing A fan made breathing style made by Zenitsu, derived from Lust Breathing created by Mitsuri Kanroji, which is derived from Fire Breathing created by Kyoujurou Rengoku. It involves Zenitsu being a simp (This is a joke, don’t hate me please)

• First Form: Thunderclap and Flash, Prime (壱 (いち) ノ型 (かた) 　霹 (へき) 靂 (れき) 一 (いっ) 閃 (せん) ・極 (きわみ) Ichi no kata: Hekireki Issen — Kiwami^?) — A variation of the Thunderclap and Flash created by Zenitsu. The user performs Thunderclap and Flash with such strength that they crack and uproot the ground beneath them, and tear up the ground afterwards trying to arrest their momentum.. This move can be performed mid-air, which launches the user at an angle towards the ground as they strike.

• Air Spin (空 (くう) 転 (てん) Kūten^?) — The user delivers a circular spinning slash in the air to their opponent.

Equipment[]

Standard Nichirin Katana: As a Demon Slayer, Zenitsu around a standard sized and shaped Nichirin katana with lightning streaks along the entire blade.

Zenitsu Agatsuma (我 (あが) 妻 (つま) 善 (ぜん) 逸 (いつ) Agatsuma Zen’itsu^?) is one of the main protagonists of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and along with Inosuke Hashibira, a travelling companion of Tanjiro Kamado and Nezuko Kamado. He is also a Demon Slayer in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Appearance[]

Zenitsu is a young boy of average height with fair skin and downward-sloped, scared-looking eyes that fade from soft brown to gold. He has short, yellow hair of varying lengths, cutting off squarely at the ends where it fades to a darker orange color, that falls in front of his face in uneven bangs. Before he became a Demon Slayer, Zenitsu’s hair was originally black, but it turned the color it is currently when he was struck by lightning during his training.

For some time following the battle at Natagumo Mountain, his limbs temporarily shrunk due to the Spider Demon (Son)‘s poison but were able to return to normal afterward thanks to the medicine given to him by Shinobu Kocho.

He wears a paler brown version of the standard Demon Slayer uniform, which consists of a dark brown gakuran jacket, a white belt around his waist and hakama pants that extend, as well as his signature white-triangle patterned, yellow and orange gradient haori. As well as this, Zenitsu also sports a pair of Kyahan, tied at the front in 3 white bows, with the same pattern as his haori, pale brown tabi socks and white-laced zōri.

Personality[]

Zenitsu comes off as a coward, as he often claims that he doesn’t have long to live due to the dangerous job of being a Demon Slayer. He also has rather low self-esteem despite his strength, even considering himself useless as seen when he couldn’t believe he had slain a demon and tricked himself into instead believing that it was Shoichi, even though the latter was a young child who didn’t possess any form of special demon-slaying ability. Zenitsu is in a constant state of fear and always cries and tries to run away at the sight of danger, claiming he wants to live a modest, normal life, instead of that of a Demon Slayer. But he also likes to tease people when he’s angry. Due to this, Zenitsu screams and shouts a lot, sometimes annoying the people around him. He is also shown to be pessimistic at times, especially during the Hashira Training Arc where he lashed out at Tanjiro and Inosuke for viewing the training positively.

However, despite these weaknesses, Zenitsu still wants to live up to the expectations others set up for him and will try his hardest when he needs to. He holds great respect and admiration towards his comrades and his deceased teacher, Jigoro Kuwajima, and his inner focus and drive in avenging him help to wash away his cowardice and second thoughts when he is in a pinch. Zenitsu also hates himself for how cowardly and incompetent he is, genuinely striving to better himself.

Zenitsu is also shown to be something of a wannabe womanizer, stemming from a desire to not be single should he be killed. He tends to hit on girls who he thinks are cute and asks them to marry him, much to their annoyance. This womanizing nature is shown to override his docile personality, in particular when he believes his comrades are «flirting» with cute girls, he soon snaps and goes in long hysterical rants and complaints. Zenitsu seems to have a strong crush on Nezuko, openly expressing his affection for her and always rushing to protect her as if on instinct. During these times, he is also shown to become physically aggressive, lashing out at them in frustration. Though, Zenitsu does show to respect women, telling Daki to let go of a girl that Daki nearly tore the ear off of, and later demanded her to apologize.

As the only one boy in the trio to have grown up in the city, Zenitsu shows more knowledge about how the city works and is constantly embarrassed by his partners’ naivety.

Before the raid on the Infinity Castle, Zenitsu gives off a different, more serious vibe as if he is focused on something important. This development occurred after receiving a letter from Chuntaro, which revealed his master’s death and Kaigaku’s role behind it. During his fight against Kaigaku, Zenitsu is stern and becomes enraged, causing him to angrily yell at him for disrespecting their cultivator. His sudden change surprises his ex-senior, as Zenitsu shows a more mature persona compared to his usual cowardice.

Abilities[]

Overall Abilities: From the beginning, Zenitsu comes off as a talented and skilled Demon Slayer, though he denies this. Zenitsu’s true strength awakens when he is asleep, as that’s when his nerves that normally keep him from accessing his true strength give out, making him more sagacious, calm and precise in combat, which allowed him to instantly decapitate the Tongue Demon and defeat the Son Spider Demon by himself. He was later able to defend 3 entire train carts being under attack by Enmu, Lower Rank One, along with Nezuko. A few months after that, he was able to go toe-to-toe with an awakened Daki with the assistance of Inosuke, and later managed to blitz her with Thunderclap and Flash: God Speed. As further credence to his strength, Zenitsu was able to advance to the highest point of the Hashira Training.

However, his true strength seems to manifest when Zenitsu can fight while awake, as he managed to match the new Upper Rank Six, Kaigaku, in power by himself and later blizted and decapitated him before he could react, although he sustained several severe injuries. However, it was displayed that his feelings of regret and melancholy were the only things keeping Zenitsu from immediately killing Kaigaku, his former senior. Moreover, he could keep up with and overpower the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, albeit he was severely weakened by the Anti-Kibutsuji Drug. Nonetheless, Zenitsu’s strength more than likely matched that of the Hashira by the end of the series.

Enhanced Hearing: Zenitsu possesses a heightened sense of hearing, allowing him to detect danger from even the faintest of sounds. Using his superhuman hearing, he has displayed the ability to decipher layers upon layers of sound in one of the brothels and even in the Infinity Castle. As another testament to his great sound detection ability, he can perfectly replicate any tune he hears on a Shamisen and Koto only after listening to it once for the first time,Template:Ref achieving a perfect pitch despite having no musical background. Zenitsu’s extraordinary hearing also enables him to fight in his asleep, an impressive feat as he has no visual aid and can only use sound to discern his surroundings while keeping up with the attacks of demons.

• Extrasensory Perception: Zenitsu’s hearing allows him to hear and pick up sounds outside the normal range of perception, such as detecting a person’s thoughts, emotions and even their personality just by picking up the subtle sounds they produce. Moreover, he can discern a human from a demon by comparing the sounds they make, which also allows him to determine their strength to an extent as Daki, an Upper Rank demon, has a more terrible sound than normal demons.

Enhanced Strength: Zenitsu has attained amazing physical strength through years of harsh training. Zenitsu can hold down Inosuke Hashibira with his bare hands and throw his entire body by grabbing to and swinging one of his legs.Template:Ref Most importantly, Zenitsu has incredible leg strength allowing him to jump extremely high and at blistering speeds to perform his Thunder Breathing techniques. He was also able to damage the body of Muzan, whose body has the highest durability out of all the demons, further testifying his superhuman physical strength.

Immense Speed & Reflexes: Zenitsu is extremely fast, being able to easily move faster than even the eye can see. Even at the beginning of the series when he was at his weakest, shown when his speed could evade the attacks of several demons such as the Tongue Demon and Son Spider Demon effortlessly and later blitz them. During the Mugen Train Arc, he was able to save Nezuko from Lower Rank One, Enmu‘s, flesh appendages, and slice through many of them before Enmu could react.

As he progresses, his speed has improved to the point that his movements couldn’t be perceived by Upper Rank demons, like Daki and Kaigaku, the former’s reflexes having been amplified multiple times during the fight and latter being a user of the same Breathing Style as Zenitsu. Moreover, Zenitsu could move faster than Kaigaku’s lightning Blood Demon Art and cut his neck before the attack reached him. More impressively, Zenitsu could land multiple hits on the imperceptibly fast Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, with his techniques, albeit he was severely weakened then.

Immense Stamina & Endurance: Zenitsu has incredible stamina and endurance. He has been shown to continue fighting even after being affected by lethal poison from the Son Spider Demon that was gradually weakening him and turning him into a spider. He was also able to defend 3 train cars with Nezuko for an extended period of time without tiring out. Later, Zenitsu, along with Inosuke, engaged in combat with Upper Rank Six, Daki, for a relatively long period of time, even after receiving numerous wounds from the Upper Rank and later was trapped under rubble. Still, Zenitsu had enough stamina left to unleash his Thunderclap and Flash: God Speed technique against twice, once to get out of the rubble, the second to blitz Daki.

He was able to continue fighting with Kaigaku even after being on the receiving end of multiple Blood Demon Art-enhanced Thunder Breathing techniques that burned his skin and eventually summon enough power to use his ultimate technique and blitz him. Zenitsu was even able to exert himself for around half an hour during the fight against Muzan, even being able to surpass his limit of only being able to use his Thunderclap and Flash: God Speed technique twice a day before his legs gave out.

Indomitable Will: Zenitsu possesses indomitable willpower and spirit in order to kill demons. This was displayed when he absolutely refused to let Inosuke kill the demon inside Tanjiro’s box, and protected it to the end despite getting relentlessly beat up by Inosuke. While he was asleep against the battle against Daki, Zenitsu had the willpower to continue fighting despite sustaining numerous slash wounds all over his body and having his feet broken.Template:Ref Through sheer will and anger, Zenitsu was able to overcome his cowardice and stay awake in battle against demons, shown during his bout with Kaigaku and Muzan, especially in the fight with the latter in which he refused to give up and persisted despite being enervated and injured.

Tactical Intellect: Even when fighting unconscious, Zenitsu has displayed incredible judgement and tactical intellect. When fighting consciously, this ability is fully released. This able was best exhibited during his battle against Upper Rank Six, Daki. When Inosuke made an erroneous deduction of her weaknesses, Zenitsu correctly explicated that all they need to do is keep both demons’ head disconnected to kill them. After his bout with Kaigaku commenced, he was able to clearly think and process his techniques and demonic abilities.

Unconscious Combat: Zenitsu has the ability to fight when he sleeps, which allows him to awaken his true strength. While awake, his nerves and fear cause him to freeze up so he cannot move. When his life is in danger, his nerves and fear grow so strong that he passes out. But while asleep, his nerves are no longer holding him back, allowing him to fight and move with great judgement, precision and skill. His hearing also places a big part in allowing Zenitsu to fight unconsciously, as it enables him to discern his surroundings and the location of his enemies and their attacks. This also allows him to fight even after he falls victim to Enmu‘s spell that makes anyone go into deep sleep.

Раньше волосы Дзэницу были чёрными, однако просветлели после того, как в него ударила молния, когда он спасался на дереве от тренировок учителя. Поверх стандартной чёрной униформы охотника носит жёлтое хаори с орнаментом из белых треугольников, его клинок также с жёлтыми разводами. Фамильяр — воробей Тюнтаро.

Невообразимый трус и плакса, Дзэницу пугается любого шума, постоянно прося окружающих защитить его и повторяя, что очень скоро умрёт. Бабник, волочится за каждой девушкой, которая к нему добра, требуя выйти за него. Узнав, что Тандзиро носит в ящике за спиной прекрасную девушку, начинает завидовать ему и беситься, но быстро успокаивается, когда понимает, что Нэдзуко на самом деле младшая сестра Камадо. С тех пор постоянно защищает её, испытывая сильную симпатию.

Несмотря на малодушие, Дзэницу очень любит учителя и друзей, готов ради них рискнуть жизнью, переступая через свои слабости. Обладатель очень тонкого слуха, благодаря которому прекрасно играет на сямисэне и кото, даже на расстоянии может отличать звуки демонов и людей, что весьма помогает в охоте. Для него каждое живое существо издаёт свой неповторимый звук.

Учитель Дзигоро Кувадзима, которого Дзэницу всегда называет «дедулей», обучал Агацуму шести стилям дыхания грома, однако ученик, из-за полного отсутствия таланта, освоил за годы тренировок только первый стиль — «Молниеносный громовой раскат», самый основной, хотя и овладел этой техникой в совершенстве. В бою Дзэницу бесполезен, так как от страха перед демонами сразу падает в обморок и тут же засыпает.

Клинок, рассекающий демонов: Зеницу Агацума

Я ненавижу себя больше всех. Я думаю, что пора действовать, но каждый раз лишь съеживаюсь, хныкаю и убегаю. Я хочу измениться. Я хочу стать сильным.
Цитата Зеницу Агацума

Зеницу Агацума (на английском Zenitsu Agatsuma, на японском 我あが妻つま 善ぜん逸いつ) — персонаж аниме сериала «Клинок, рассекающий демонов», путешествующий вместе с Танджиро и Незуко Камадо.

Зеницу Агацума, вики

Зеницу Агацума — молодой парень среднего роста со светлой кожей и вечно опущенными вниз глазами, чей цвет переходит от мягкого коричневого к золотому. У Зеницу короткие светлые волосы, выцветающие до темно-оранжевого цвета. До того, как Зеницу стал Убийцей Демонов, он носил черные волосы, но они приобрели желтый окрас после того, как в него ударила молния на тренировке.

Зеницу носит более бледную версию стандартной униформы Убийцы Демонов, состоящую из темно-коричневой куртки, белого ремня вокруг талии и расширяющихся брюк хакама, а также его фирменного кимоно с белым треугольным рисунком. Помимо этого, Агацума носит пару кяхан, завязанных спереди тремя белыми бантами, с тем же рисунком, что и у его кимоно, светло-коричневые носки и японские сандали с белой шнуровкой. Обычно Зеницу использует обычную катану с желтоватым лезвием.

Зеницу родился 5 сентября и на момент начала истории его возраст составляет 16 лет.

Зеницу Агацума, персонажи

Зеницу и Танджиро

Зеницу часто полагается на Танджиро в напряженных ситуациях, например, когда они вступают в схватку с Демонами. Это было связано с низкой уверенностью Зеницу в себе и унизительной верой в то, что он был слабаком. Зеницу Агацума уважает и восхищается Танджиро, но иногда насмехается над ним из зависти, когда Танджиро упоминает о своих встречах с девушками без Зеницу. Он также часто злится из-за храбрости и героизма Танджиро, считая это излишним риском. 

Тем не менее, Танджиро действительно является лучшим другом Зеницу. Он очень ценит их дружбу из-за доброты и терпимости Танджиро Камадо. Вполне возможно, что он оказался первым настоящий другом Зеницу за всю его жизнь.

Зеницу и Незуко

Несмотря на сильный страх перед Демонами, Зеницу влюбляется в Незуко. Он частоз пытается убедить ее выйти за него замуж и никогда не забывает упомянуть о своем восхищении ею при каждой их встречи.

Однако со временем Зеницу Агацума становится спокойнее и немного менее агрессивным к Незуко. Он часто рассказывает ей истории о различных миссиях с Танджиро, на которых ее не было, и в какой-то момент он обещает отвести ее на цветочное поле. Кроме того, он помог Незуко посмотреть на золотую рыбку Шинобу Кочо без разрешения самого Шинобу

Зеницу и Иноске

Зеницу и Иносуке обычно не ладят, хоть и находятся в одной команде. В основном  это происходит из-за их крайне низкого мнения друг о друге. Иноске видит в Зеницу раздражающего плаксивого слаба, в то время как Зеницу видит в Иноске жестокого идиота, которого интересует только борьба. Однако они могут хорошо сотрудничать, когда дела становятся особенно плохи. Иноске Хашибира восхищается способностями Зеницу во время сна, по его мнению Зеницу следует навсегда остаться в таком состоянии.

Зеницу и Кайгаку

Зеницу и Кайгаку были учениками Джигоро Куваджимы и наследниками Громового Дыхания. Несмотря на общую неприязнь, Зеницу относится к Кайгаку с большим уважением, настолько большим, что бил других членов Корпуса Истребителей Демонов, которые плохо отзывались о нем за его спиной. Кайгаку, с другой стороны, всегда принижал Зеницу и называл его ничтожеством из-за слабости.

:warning: MAJOR SPOILERS ARE PRESENT :warning:

#WeebyWikis

#TheGreatAAOlympians

Welp, guess who is making another Demon Slayer wiki? JOKUDO, WHO WOULD’VE THOUGHT?! Apparently, I have been seeing fanarts of this character for the past 2 weeks, and I see he is getting more popular as the series grows. Because of the sudden popularity, this character has been getting, why not follow that? This is Jokudo here and I am here to present Demon Slayer’s «Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing» Zenitsu Agatsuma. Not only is Zenitsu a Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing, but he is also a mega simp in which I dislike. I would rather have him being as a clumsy person for one minute and badass in the next, but having him act like a simp for most of the anime gets too annoying too fast. Gladly he develops through this progress though later in the manga, and I’ll explain that down below. As I am writing this, it had just been confirmed that the Kimetsu no Yaiba manga will be ending its run in May (which is this month). So, as a warning, as you approach Demon Slayer content like this, you will be met with SPOILERS almost everywhere. Zenitsu has truly come a long way surviving over 100 chapters in the series. And after the straight chaos that’s been going on in the final arc, let’s just say he’s extremely lucky. I don’t want to spoil too much, but there are some pretty slick manga moments that I need to address. One of those moments is pretty hype if I do say so myself, but I couldn’t risk seeing you guys become spoiled without realizing yet. Now then, let’s begin this wiki like we usually do!

Wiki cover from :arrow_right: Hawks

:zap: Appearance/Personality :zap:

If Demon Slayer had the primary colors that KonoSuba has, then Zenitsu would be Darkness. Everything on Zenitsu has yellow on it, even his demon slayer uniform that has a yellow tint on it. For this appearance, his hair (that was originally black) has the design of a mop. I’ve been hearing this from a few people, and I couldn’t agree more. Whenever Zenitsu was struck by lightning, however, his hair transformed into a bright gold with orange coming out of the tips. With Tanjiro’s haori looking like a green and black checkerboard and Inosuke who doesn’t wear one at all, Zenitsu’s haori has a tint of yellow coming from the top and orange coming from below with white triangle scattered around it. His nichirn blade has a pretty radical design, it has a golden thunder strike coming across. Lastly, since his battle with the Spider demon, his limbs were shrunken due to the poison the enemy had. But Shinobu was there to return his height due to her medicine, thankfully. Really though, this appearance looks awesome as hell. I can’t believe your hair could turn gold after being struck by lightning. If I would become struck by lightning in an anime, then my hair would be white! Zenitsu must have a special kind of body if you can withstand one simple and powerful strike from the sky. What really got me worked up is his nichirin blade, which has a thunder affect on it. Every important demon slayer has a beautiful design on its blade. Knowing Zenitsu has lightning abilities himself, of course his blade would correlate to his power. If Zenitsu were to keep his black hair, then I’d say that would ruin the whole character design. Zenitsu, at the state he is in right now, I wouldn’t consider him to be a blonde. Just calling him a golden mophead is fine by me. But seriously, why does he have a mophead 🤔🤔?

If you look at Zenitsu for the first time he debuted, then you would view him as one of those pessimistic scaredy-cats you see in other anime. Zenitsu is a man who doesn’t want to die, who is too afraid to die. That is what I can understand deeply. If you look at him a few episodes later, you would now view him as an outright simp. You see, Zenitsu does not know any better when it comes to women. If there was any girl who walks past him or even gives him a look towards the eye, then Zenitsu would come bursting to tears begging the lady to marry him. No, this is not love at first sight, this is just giving a certain simp the attention it needs. This also happens when Zenitsu discovered a Nezuko in a box, something he was protecting with his life on the line. I really should sorry for Zenny since he acts this way, but don’t fear. Zenitsu is the Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing in Demon Slayer. Every time this man sleeps, he will unconsciously rise up and start killing demons with a powerful Thunderclap Flash. I was pretty surprised myself that Zenitsu had a little decency in him. Afterward, he would go back being his normal self, or should I say normal simp :joy: ?

Gladly Zenitsu starts to develop his personality throughout the manga. It would begin with the Mugen Train arc and forward where Zenitsu became more observant of his mind and abilities. Instead of being love-stricken for Nezuko, he becomes more protective (I will talk more about that later). Instead of being absolutely dreadful towards Tanjiro and Inosuke, he becomes a closer bro to them like never before — like a trio. It was either the fight in the forest or the training that changed what Zenitsu really is because I don’t think other people caught on to that yet. Zenitsu knows how it is like to protect someone, like Tanjiro protecting Nezuko for example. With his trainer Gramps passing away and Kaigaku leaving behind his humanity away, Zenitsu feels it’s best to fight for the ones you are also protecting — even if you have to serve battles alone. Out of the main cast, this is the only greatest personality shift I’ve seen. Starting as a person desperate for love to a person who wants to protect everyone at the state he’s in, that’s true character development.

:zap: Moments that I Like :zap:

Again, Zenitsu is the Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing, and that can be a good thing or bad thing depending on the character. If Zenitsu ever goes to sleep once, this man will wake up a minute later ready to kick some ass. He had done it against a Tongue demon, now he’s done it against a Spider demon. The build-up of the scene where Zenitsu is about to launch his attack looks MIGHTY FINE. Cracks of lightning are surrounding Zenitsu as he has transformed into Super Saiyan 2. The ground started to shake like some unholy being was gonna rose off the ground. And lastly, his eyes turned pure white as if he is some God. Spiders were crawling on him, but that didn’t do crap! That spider demon must’ve already known his head was gonna be sliced clean off, a normal demon’s demise was already set. Because of this godly power that Zenitsu has, it makes him speed through sound (nowhere near light). I can imagine Zenitsu turning himself into lightning like he ate some Logia Devil Fruit or something. Zenitsu’s powers blow me away, but it’s weird how he handles it. Moments like these do prove his worthiness in the story, but there’s another moment (particularly in the manga) that makes Zenitsu more than just a good character.

His fight with Kaigaku in the Dimensional Infinity Fortress arc was too hype. To make sure we’re on the same track, Kaigaku ain’t a new character of Demon Slayer since he appeared in Episode 17 of the anime, but something does happen to him in the manga as you can see. Seeing Zenitsu fight one of his partners who also trained with Gramps was hype, wasn’t sorrowful for the results and outcome. Kaigaku was a cocky but strong opponent who made many styles other than the First, while Zenitsu looks like he was getting his behind pounded for a man who had nothing but the First Style. It’s like two of the characters are the opposite of each other, and both have quirks that can differ a lot. One with many styles vs one with only one style, sounds very one-sided don’t you think? Well, that’s nothing to worry about because Zenitsu LEARNS ANOTHER STYLE in this fight! Plus, it is something that HE MADE UP! I was wondering when Zenitsu will learn more than one style for his techniques. It was certainly a shocking reveal that he can create sword styles from himself. This move utterly blasted Kaigaku and his greedy intentions away, it was a moment to remember. This proved that Zenny was a good man to Gramps. For a short dude that Zenitsu trusted on the most, it really paid off at this moment here. It’s gonna be one hell of a day for Demon Slayer if this scene ever gets animated. In fact, the whole Dimensional Infinity Fortress arc is gonna be hyped once it’s animated. Though I find these last two arcs disappointing, it’s still gonna be enjoyable. For those who are looking for proof Zenitsu CAN be great, this is it right here :triumph: :triumph: !

:zap: :zap:

:zap: Relationships :zap:

Whenever I did my wiki for Nezuko Kamado, I noted that Zenitsu is the main man who got all eyes on her. Now it is time to see Zenitsu’s point of view for Nezuko. Firstly though, we already know Zenitsu is mega jealous of Tanjiro for having a «beauty» such as Nezuko become inside his little box. This is where he originally became an even larger simp than he already is. For Inosuke, Zenitsu has a tough time getting along with him. Although Zenitsu has mad envy for Tanjiro and an alternating opinionated relationship with Inosuke, they all cooperate well as a battle trio. Again, our main focus is Zenitsu’s relationship with Nezuko, and that’s the spiciest part of this wiki. Whenever Zenitsu discovered a little Nezuko inside the box Tanjiro was always carrying, the dugged huge envy against Tanjiro. Zenitsu spent all day protecting the box from the hands of Inosuke, and seeing it was a little demon girl made Zenitsu furious. No, this wasn’t envied towards Nezuko. Instead, Zenitsu was already in love with Nezuko after seeing her small body lurk outside the box. This was the TRUE start of Zenitsu being an ultra simp. Whenever Zenitsu sees Nezuko from that moment onward, he starts to have a deep sense of love towards her. He started chasing around Nezuko like he was crazed with love, it’s very unfortunate. It’s funny how Zenitsu has a deep terror for most demons, but not Nezuko (who is a demon herself).

It’s crazy how you can simp for one demon girl but there are a few demon girls you could also simp for. I have to give Zenitsu some credit though, this man never stopped in wanting to marry Nezuko despite the fact Tanjiro doesn’t want anyone treating Nezuko like that. It’s also crazy how he had gained most of his inspiration from this one demon girl as well. I can never understand how Zenitsu can awake a strong crush for a girl who can barely open her feelings towards anything. This was Zenny being a huge simp during this time, but later in the manga, it seems he has toned down a bit. He is the one protecting Nezuko the most whenever Tanjiro isn’t around. It happened multiple times, so glad to think Zenitsu is also good at is protecting the ones he truly cares the most. Nezuko usually acknowledges the things Zenitsu has done to keep her safe, like head patting him I suppose. This is heartwarming to see, especially seeing the man who finally got his act together when interacting with girls. I’m not really a fan of this relationship all that much, but I’m relieved something that could’ve turned to an awkward relationship to a protective relationship. Currently in the manga, Zenitsu is protective of anyone. He hasn’t simped in a while and that’s good to hear. This demon-slaying job got Zenitsu busy, hasn’t it? If there is a time skip by the end of the manga, then let this man marry some girl who truly knows a lot about him :yum: .

:zap: :zap:

:zap: :zap:

:zap: :zap:

:zap: Thoughts? :zap:

Zenitsu in the manga is incredibly better than Zenitsu in the anime. I like how he focuses on becoming stronger rather than focusing on girls who he desperately needs to marry. As I said, he is developing himself a lot just by training, fighting against Lower and Upper Moons, and inspiring himself by thinking of his Gramps that trained him. Sure, Zenitsu is like the funniest character in the show; unfortunately, I am a guy who doesn’t like repetitive things. Once I think something that might get old happens all the time, I start to get annoyed. Thankfully this was handled and dealt with when the Mugen Train arc hit. He was, this time, protective over Tanjiro’s sister and felt like he was another brother to her. He barely simped for some other guy’s sister, and that’s what I like to see. Still, though, no one can deny the fact that Zenitsu’s lightning powers are too badass. You’d see him sleep like he is passed out or something. Then out of nowhere Zenitsu is standing up unconsciously ready to unsheath his sword and slice you at the speed of sound. Out of everybody’s powers in Demon Slayer, Lightning-style is my most favorite of all. Although I am a bit annoyed with him for being a simp that I won’t accept, that doesn’t mean Zenitsu ain’t one of my favorites. He appears to be the most interesting than the main cast, which means he’s more interesting than Tanjiro, Inosuke, and ESPECIALLY Nezuko. He has an extremely eccentric personality that differs from anybody else and so on. Whatever happens in the last chapters of the manga, Zenitsu may be grown enough to marry anyone girl who seems to have a liking for him (except Nezuko :confused: ).

With that, time to conclude this wiki. I hope you liked this yellow-haired mophead from a series about slaying demons. And I hope you have caught up to the manga to witness the finale in a few weeks or so. MANY things happened in the last arc, and glad this man made it through. I won’t tell you exactly how though, so READ THE MANGA!! Anyways, see you all next time whenever another Demon Slayer character becomes popular!
