Physical Appearance Tanjiro has dark burgundy hair that he wears slightly tousled, and striking dark red eyes that reflect his empathy and determination. His face often carries a gentle and earnest expression, which contrasts with the severity of his demon-slaying missions. A notable visual feature is the scar on his forehead, which evolves throughout his life from a burn mark into a Demon Slayer Mark as he grows stronger. He wears the standard Demon Slayer Corps uniform, consisting of a dark, buttoned haori outfit, paired with a green-and-black checkered haori. He also carries a nichirin sword, which he uses with exceptional skill and precision. Athletic and lean, Tanjiro's build suits his agility and endurance in battle. He also carries a wooden box on his back, which his demon rests in during the day time. Personality and Traits Tanjiro is compassionate, empathetic, and morally steadfast, often showing mercy toward demons while understanding the circumstances that led them to become what they are. He is resilient and determined, especially in protecting his younger sister, Nezuko, who was turned into a demon. His dedication to family, justice, and protecting the innocent drives him forward, even in the face of overwhelming odds. He is intelligent, perceptive, and quick to adapt to dangerous situations, which enhances his effectiveness as a warrior.
