First Form: Dance Form of Sun Breathing In it, the swordsman pushes their sword to slice forward and down in an arc. This slashing move is perfect for overpowering opponents, but it takes a lot of force and lacks the speed that the other forms possess.
First Form: Dance
The simplest Sun Breathing technique on this list is a high-powered slash that is pretty powerful indeed. Tanjiro unwittingly pulls off this move during his fight against Rui, marking the first instance of him using the Sun Breathing technique.
1 Yoriichi Tsugikuni
Yoriichi was the very first user of the Breathing Styles and he came up with Sun Breathing, a powerful breathing form that is known to be the most effective against demons.
Second Form: Pearl Flower Moongazing
Putting breaks on the overwhelming attacks, Kokushibo's second form of Moon Breathing sends out multiple crescent slashes at once. The series of moves cancel out all incoming attacks toward the demon and act as a defensive measure for him.
Third Form: Raging Sun
But instead of a single vertical attack, it has two continuous horizontal slashes. The attack not only damages the opponents but also knocks them back. This Sun Breathing form is pretty reliable in a defensive manner and allows the user to counter multiple attacks at once.
Mitsuri's Breathing Style is Love Breathing, a bit odd-sounding next to Styles that draw on nature such as Water Breathing and Thunder Breathing.
Demon Slayer's season 3's latest episode has left fans on edge with Tanjiro's discovery of Yoriichi Tsugikuni's Type Zero sword.

This happened due to a treatment that had gone wrong. While he was being treated, Muzan killed the doctor because he was not able to observe any results.
8 Tanjiro Is The Only Living User
On the other hand, Sun Breathing can, presently, only be performed by Tanjiro Kamado. Though its techniques can be taught to others provided they have the guidance of a Kamado, there are no other known users who are currently alive.
Initially, Tanjiro's accuracy and strength were not up to the mark, which is why Muzan was able to avoid his attacks. However, Tanjiro accurately performed the thirteenth form and inflicted a ton of damage on the Demon King.
Hinokami Kagura (ヒノカミ 神楽 かぐら , Hinokami Kagura?, lit. Dance of the Fire God) is a Breathing Style only known and taught by the Kamado Family, later revealed to be the first Breathing Style, Sun Breathing ( 日 ひ の 呼 こ 吸 きゅう , Hi no kokyū?).
Taught to him by Sakonji during his training in the mountains, it is one of the five main styles derived from Sun Breathing.
Breathing Hybridization
It is possible for a swordsman to use more than one Breathing Style technique at a time, allowing the user to take advantage of the advantageous aspects of both techniques. Tanjiro Kamado, for example, can use both the Water Breathing and Sun Breathing styles simultaneously.
The flashback also reveals that Yoriichi had a twin brother named Michikatsu Tsugikuni, who became a Demon Slayer but later turned into a demon and became Upper Moon One, Kokushibo.
But if we are talking about the human form, then it's a big fat NO, because Tanjiro has just mastered the Sun Breathing whereas Yoriichi is the inventor of it, also he's way more powerful and holds an unfathomable battle intellect, larger than any Demon Slayer in history, so in conclusion, no one is remotely close to ...
Yoriichi would be able to defeat every single Hashira on this list without breaking a sweat. Such was his reputation and skill in swordsmanship.
Only two Slayers were ever known to be older than 25 with a Mark. Yoriichi lived till old age, likely due to him having been born with the mark and thereby avoiding the curse altogether. Gyomei on the other hand did not activate his Mark until he was already older than 25.
Moreover, any Nichirin sword can become bright red regardless of the blade's original color. However, the blade can only stay bright red for a certain amount of time before returning to normal.
After Tanjiro was able to dodge a particularly lethal attack and knock the doll's head clean off, it was revealed that the mechanical body was actually home to a mysterious sword.
Tanjiro is the descendant of someone who knew Yoriichi personally and was a good friend of his as well. Sumiyoshi was rescued by Yoriichi when a demon threatened his life. Since then Yoriichi often met him and they became close acquaintances.
In Chapter 205, we see Obanai and Mitsuri reincarnated and married, as they promised before they died, and they are running a restaurant together. In the volume extras it is revealed that they have five kids.
