It isn't until later that we the audience discover that it is far more than just a scar. The mark on Tanjiro's head is actually a Demon Slayer Mark. Powerful Demon Slayers possess the ability to unlock unique marks that coincide with the special breathing fighting techniques they perform.
As it turned out, the scar on Tanjiro's forehead did have some significance to it, rather than simply being a Todoroki-esque burn from scalding water. Tanjiro wasn't born with this scar on his forehead. Rather, he acquired it when tackling his younger brother out of the way of a falling pot of boiling tea.
In the show, Tanjiro's father Tanjuro is shown with the exact same head "scar" as his son - and it seems unlikely that the explanation for this is that they both had the exact same scarring incident with a boiling hot kettle. As such, it's clear this is an inherited trait, and not the result of an unfortunate accident.
It appeared in the final fight as he was cutting off Gyutaro's head. But after the fight, it simply reversed back to it being his normal scar.
Demon Slayers who have awakened the Demon Slayer Mark are said to die upon reaching the age of 25. Michikatsu Tsugikuni speculated this to be because the mark exchanged the life span of its user for power.
Tanjiro certainly did a lot of good with his Water Breathing techniques, but his ability to use Sun Breathing both gives him an edge in battle and allows him to stand out among the incredibly powerful Hashira he fights alongside.
Tanjuro Kamado was the name of Tanjiro Kamado's father. He passed away before the event of the main story of the Demon Slayer.
So, not only could Tanjuro use his mastery of the Hinokami Kagura for his dance, but he was also an excellent warrior despite his poor health. Tanjuro Kamado bore a mark on his head similar to Tanjiro's own scar, identifying Tanjuro as a chosen wielder of Sun-Breathing.
The black blade represents the Sun and is surrounded by prejudice and misconceptions, as historically every demon slayer who held it lived a short life. This could mean that Tanjirou is destined to break the pattern and set a new legend for black Nichirin blades in the Demon Slayer universe.
During their battle, the former unleashed an attack that harmed multiple people in the entertainment district. Seeing the loss of human lives and the ceaseless destruction caused by the demon, Tanjiro's was overcome with rage, causing his eyes to start bleeding.
Tanjiro's ancestor was a good friend of Yoriichi and arguably was one of his only true friends. Therefore Yoriichi gave the earrings as a gift, and since then they have been passed down the generations until they reached Tanjiro.
Tanjiro awakened his Demon Slayer Mark for the first time while trying to behead Gyutaro, and again, during the fight against Upper Rank Four, Hantengu. The flame-like Mark, which was almost identical to Yoriichi's, became permanent after Tanjiro underwent strict training during the Hashira Training arc.
During Tanjiro and the rest of the Hashiras' showdown with the Demon King Muzan, Tanjiro is mortally wounded and dies. At the same time, Muzan receives a particularly fatal lil' booboo himself. As Muzan is about to shuffle off the mortal coil, he uses the last of his powers to turn Tanjiro into a demon.
In the Demon Slayer Corps, the Hashira is a group of the strongest and most reputable swordsmen who have defeated members of the Twelve Kizuki. Yet, for some reason, Tanjiro Kamado, the series' protagonist, never becomes a Hashira.
why tanjiro's head is so hard? Well, it's thanks to his genetics, as his mother, Ki Kamado, passed down the trait of a rock hard head to him. In fact, Nezuko heard a story about their mother. scaring away a boar by headbutting it, which shows that Ki was also very tough and fearless.
The warrior Muzan feared was a swordsman named Yoriichi Tsugikuni. Yoriichi was the only slayer before Tanjiro who came close to killing Muzan, and the flashback of their fight occurred in Chapter 187.
No, they are not related.
Tanjiro's connection to Yoriichi is not through blood relation, but through their similar appearances, which is due to the divine nature of Sun Breathing. (Also Read: Did Demon Slayer hire a Bollywood director for Season 3? Fans speculate!)
Moreover, Tanjiro's appearance somewhat resembled Tsugikuni. So the only reason Muzan is afraid of Tanjiro is because of the Hanafuda earrings he possesses, which acted as a reminder of his downfall.
Jigoro Kuwajima ( 桑 くわ 島 じま 慈 じ 悟 ご 郎 ろう , Kuwajima Jigorō?) is the biological father of Kaigaku Kuwajima, adoptive father of Zenitsu Agatsuma, and a former Upper Moon.
