Kamado Tanjiro Development

(The main character in Kimetsu no Yaiba)

Kamado Tanjiro

OPEN THE STORY. TANJIRO WAS BORN INTO THE KAMADO FAMILY. THEY WORKED ABOUT FIRE.  SOME PEOPLE MAY THINK THAT THIS FAMILY MUST HAVE A GOOD STRENGTH. BUT THAT BELIEF WAS PROVEN WHEN WE FIRST SAW MR.  KAMADO TANJURO (TANJIRO’S FATHER). IN MEMORY OF TANJIRO, HIS FATHER WAS A FRAIL SLENDER MAN. WHICH MEANS HIS STRENGTH NOT INHERITED FROM HIS FATHER.

Tanjiro Strength

HIS STRENGTH SPLIT INTO TWO TYPE. FIRST IS A SPECIAL ABILITY ACQUIRED AT BIRTH (OR HASN’T BEEN EXPLAINED IN THE STORY YET). SECOND IS THE ABILITY ACQUIRED THROUGH PRACTICE.

First type of his strength

a special ability acquired at birth (or hasn’t been explained in the story yet).

1) the first strength is “the ultimate smell” we have seen one of his special abilities that is “he was able to distinguish different scents more clearly than normal people”. for example, when he smelled a broken dish to differentiate how the dish was broken. when he sniffed the scent, he was able to immediately distinguish that there was a cat smell attached to it. therefore, the answer is the cat is the handiwork of the cat itself.

2) THE SECOND STRENGTH IS “EXCELLENT INTELLIGENCE” WHEN HE WAS RUNNING TO TAKE NEZUKO BACK FROM GIYU WITH ONE AX. HE RAN THROUGH A TALL TREE AND STRAIGHT IN PRETENDING TO SLASH GIYU. BUT HE MISSED THE MOVE BY BEING KNOCKED OUT BY GIYU. GIYU DIDN’T NOTICE THAT THERE WAS AN AX GOING STRAIGHT TO HIM FROM THE SKY AND THAT WAS TANJIRO’S AX. BECAUSE TANJIRO THOUGHT THAT HE WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO WIN ONE-ON-ONE WITH GIYU. THEREFORE, HE THOUGHT TO BE KNOCKED OUT AT THE SAME TIME WITH GIYU. AND THAT WAS TANJIRO’S WIT.

3) THE THIRD STRENGTH IS “HARDEN HEAD” TANJIRO HAS HIS UNIQUE ABILITIES BESIDES THE SMELLING SKILL. THAT IS HIS HEAD IS VERY STRONG. (ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT INFORMATION, ONLY TANJIROU HAD THAT SPECIAL ABILITY IN THE KAMADO FAMILY).

SECOND type of his strength

THE STRENGTH THAT GAINED FROM TANJIRO’S DEVELOPMENT.

1) HIS FIRST DEVELOPMENT IS “PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT AND ENDURANCE” AFTER TANJIROU MEETS MR. UROKODAKI. HE TRAINS TO IMPROVE HIMSELF AS MR. UROKODAKI SUGGESTS, THAT IS SURVIVING DOWN A MOUNTAIN FULL OF TRAPS AND THE VERY DILUTED AIR. BUT HE WAS ABLE TO GET THROUGH IT. SO THAT MADE TANJIRO MORE PATIENT.

2) HIS SECOND DEVELOPMENT IS “THE SWORD TRAINING” BEFORE HE GOES TO THE TEST TO BECOME A DEMON SLAYER. HE HAD TO CUT THE LARGE STONE THAT MR. UROKODAKI TOLD HIM TO BREAK IN TWO PIECES. THE FIRST TIME HE TRIED TO CUT IT, IT TURNED OUT THAT THE SWORD WAS BROKEN. HE HAS SABITO AND MAKOMO TO HELP TRAIN FOR HIM.

AFTER HE TRAINED FOR A LONG TIME, HE FINALLY SUCCEEDED IN SLASHING THAT STONE.

4) HIS FOURTH DEVELOPMENT IS “TANJIRO’S FIGHT WITH DEMONS” IN THE FINAL TEST TO BECAME A DEMON SLAYER, HE SURVIVED FROM A STRONG DEMON. AFTER HE BECAME A DEMON SLAYER, HE WENT ON VARIOUS MISSIONS UNTIL HE CONTINUED TO DEVELOP HIMSELF. HE BECAME ACCUSTOMED TO USING THE VARIOUS MOVES OF THE WATER BREATHING TEQNIQUE.

5) HIS FIFTH DEVELOPMENT IS “HINOKAMI KAGUYA FIRE DANCE” WHILE HE WAS FIGHTING RUI (THE LOWER 5TH DEMON), HE RECALLED A MEMORY OF HIS FATHER DO THE FIRE DANCING ON A SNOWY DAY AND COLD WEATHER. AT THAT TIME, HE STILL A CHILD. HE TURNED TO HIS MOTHER AND ASKED “WHY WAS HIS FATHER ABLE TO DANCE FOR SO LONG IN THIS COLD WEATHER? EVEN THOUGH HIS FATHER’S BODY IS NOT STRONG”. HIS MOM SMILED TO HIM AND REPLIED “THERE’S A WAY TO BREATHE, TANJIRO”. AFTER THAT, THE SCENE CUTS BACK TO TANJIRO. HE CREATED A MIRACLE BY BREATHING FIRE TEQNIQUE AND USES THE HINOKAMI KAGUYA DANCE TO FIGHT WITH RUI. AND THAT MAKES HIM NOW ABLE TO USE TWO BREATHING TEQNIQUE, THAT IS WATER AND FIRE BREATHING TEQNIQUE.

6) HIS SIXTH DEVELOPMENT IS “TRAINING WITH THE GIRLS” WHEN HE WAS RECUPERATING AT SHINOBU’S MANSION, HE ALSO PRACTICED WITH THE GIRLS THERE. SUCH AS BLOWING GOURDS, CHASING, TACT TRAINING, AND THE LAST ONE IS TO PRACTICE USING BREATHING TECHNIQUES ALL THE TIME.
