Why did Tanjiro's sword turn black?

Tanjiro's sword is black because it's extremely rare and linked to his connection with Sun Breathing, the first and most powerful breathing style, symbolizing his potential and unique path, contrasting the usual color for Water Breathing (blue) and hinting at a deeper connection to the original technique. Black blades absorb more sunlight, making them ideal for Sun Breathing, and historically, users with black swords, like Yoriichi, were Sun Breathers, though they often died young due to the style's rarity and persecution.
