1 Kyojuro 'Flame Pillar' Rengoku And finally, let's get to the number one saddest death in the franchise, and of course, that's the death of the brightly burning Flame-Breathing user that is Kyojuro Rengoku.
Shinobu Kocho's tragic backstory is one of the most heart-wrenching in Demon Slayer. She and her sister, Kanae, were orphaned at a young age after their parents were killed by a demon.
1 Mitsuri Kanroji
She felt that only a man stronger than her could love her, so she worked hard to become a Hashira and meet the other Hashira, hoping her partner might be among them. Unfortunately, Mitsuri never got her wish. While battling with Muzan, she attacked viciously, losing both her arms in the process.
The Wind Hashira has one of the saddest backstories in Demon Slayer. His mother had turned into a demon and had killed five of his siblings. He was forced to kill his own mother in an attempt to save his only remaining brother, Genya.
The gentle giant of the group, Stone Hashira Gyōmei Himejima has a huge body and an even bigger heart. He is very sensitive, seen crying almost constantly, and soft-spoken.
8 Shinobu Kocho, The Insect Hashira
That being said, she's arguably the weakest Hashira when it comes to pure strength.
1) Zeno - Beyond estimation (universal)
He has obliterated multiple universes with little effort. Despite his plushy appearance, this deity easily has one of the highest and most immeasurable kill counts of all anime characters.
Shinobu Kocho (The Insect Hashira) While we don't necessarily think Shinobu Kocho is physically weak by any means, we do believe that she is currently positioned at the bottom of the totem pole compared to her fellow Hashira members.
1. Gyomei Himejima. Gyomei Himejima, the Stone Hashira, is the strongest Hashira in the Demon Slayer corps in terms of strength and swordsmanship. He is the only person who uses spiked flails and an axe instead of standard swords to kill demons.
Killed And Was Killed By Doma
Before arriving at the Infinity Castle, the Insect Hashira consumed roughly 81 pounds of wisteria poison. Even though Doma killed her, he died just as quickly because of the sheer amount of poison he ingested after eating her.
The only reason why Muzan hates Doma is because of his insincerity and lack of emotions. This might sound odd, expecting emotions from a demon, but even a demon has to retain such tendencies to keep things in order.
Some confirmed sources estimate bowhead whales to have lived at least 211 years of age, making them the oldest mammals. Rougheye rockfish can reach an age of 205 years. Specimens of the Red Sea urchin Strongylocentrotus franciscanus have been found to be over 200 years old.
Sazae-San (7,920 Episodes)
Sazae-San aired 53 years ago for the first time. It holds the Guinness World Record for the longest-running television animated show ever. Sazae-San lives in a house with her husband, kids and parents.
1. Attack on Titan (2013–2023)
#1 Saiki Kusuo
The smartest character on this entire list, Saiki Kusuo is a step ahead of his jealous brother. Even without the use of his psychic powers, Kusuo would ace any IQ test he took.
Obanai Iguro is one of the harsher Hashira members. He demanded that Giyuu be punished for allowing Nezuko to get away unharmed, and later restrained Tanjiro as he tried to help his sister. He hates demons and has little regard for his fellow Hashira, except Mitsuri Kanroji later on.
Everyone knows that Shinobu is the kind insect Hashira with extensive knowledge of medicinal herbs. She injects the demons with her poisons, killing them with a smile. To fellow demon slayers, she comes off as cheerful, polite, and occasionally playful when she's teasing others.
