Demon Slayer’sHashira are a group of thestrongest, most experienced demon slayers to join the Demon Slayer Corps. They protect humanity with unmatched bravery, lightning fast reflexes, and unrivaled talent, armed with Nichirin swordsand Breathing Styles.Giyu Tomioka, one of these mighty Hashira, is considered to be one of the best in the organization, slaying multiple overwhelmingly intense demons with ease over the years.
@name_akaradejhas created acosplay of the Water Hashira that is nothing short of jaw-dropping.The cosplayer is outfitted in the standard Demon Slayer uniform of a black, long-sleeved shirt with metal buttons and a pocket on the front and black pants with white trim. Their hair is black and layered, matching Giyu’s typical hairstyle. Finally, @name_akaradej wears Giyu’s unique and multicolored haori. One side of the haori is crimson, and the other is patterned with yellow and green shapes. The vibrant designs and colors of the garment make Giyu stand outamong the Hashira, with one of the most distinctive designs.
Giyu’s Haori, That Honors the Memory of Those He Has Lost, Appears in the Look
One Half of the Garment Represents His Older Sister, Tsutako and One Represents His Close Friend, Sabito
Not only is Giyu’s haori visually pleasing, it has a more emotional meaning. The garment boasts two different patterns becauseeach side represents someone close to Giyu who was killeddue to the violence of demons. The red side of the haori matches his older sister, Tsutako’s, haori. Tragically, Tsutako was murdered by a demon while protecting Giyu, on the night before her wedding. Giyu’s best friend and fellow demon slayer, Sabito, was also slain by a demon right before his eyes, so the second side of his haori honors Sabito’s memory by matching the pattern of his outfit identically.
Demon Slayer’s Water Hashira Giyu Is More Similar To Tanjiro Than Fans Think
Giyu and Tanjiro, two of Demon Slayer’s most popular heroes, share one surprising and heartbreaking past experience that ties them together.
Giyu is one of the most reserved and standoffish Hashira and is very cautious of getting close to others. He prefers to fight alone mostly, likely due to the survivor’s guilt he feels over the deaths of his older sister and best friend. Giyu blames himself, since both parties died to save him from harm, and he relentlessly kills any demons he encounters in order to avenge those lives that unfortunately ended in the most despicable way. @name_akaradej seems to understand Giyu’s more quiet, self-reliant personality,gazing into the camera with a confident, but slightly aloof facial expression.
