Top 7 Demon Slayer Characters Who Prove You Don’t Need to Fight to Make a Difference

Summary

  • People in Demon Slayer who don’t fight demons still make a significant impact through their unique talents and dedication to the cause.
  • Characters like Tecchin Tecchikawahara, Aoi Kanzaki, and Hotaru Haganezuka contribute to the Demon Slayer Corps in different ways.
  • Despite not being combatants, individuals like Amane Ubuyashiki and Kagaya Ubuyashiki play crucial roles in supporting demon slayers.

In the world of “Demon Slayer,” where danger is always lurking, individuals who have been trained as fighters tend to fare better against the persistent menace of demons. Regardless of their best attempts, even the Demon Slayer Corps can’t completely eradicate the threat since demons often prey on the most vulnerable.

Individuals who may not excel in combat utilize their distinct abilities and skills in various beneficial ways. Some of them even collaborate with the Demon Slayer Corps to aid in the battle against malevolent forces. Among the intriguing characters in the series, it is these seven that have left a significant impression through their actions and unwavering commitment to the greater good.

7. Tecchin Tecchikawahara

Master Swordsmith

  • Manga Debut: Chapter 101
  • Anime Debut: Episode 45

Without a doubt, Tecchin Tecchikawahara, master swordsmith, holds a prestigious position as the leader of the Swordsmith Village. Despite his modesty issues, he’s widely admired for his exceptional craftsmanship and skills that earn him respect from his village folk.

It’s his fault for making dull blades that break.

In his younger years, Hotaru Haganezuka was excessively chaotic and troublesome, pushing his parents to the brink of mental exhaustion. However, Tecchikawahara, known for his benevolence and compassion, stepped in and took the boy under his wing, providing him with a nurturing home environment. This kindness proved instrumental in Hotaru’s growth and development, eventually leading him to become an accomplished swordsmith. Through his acts of assistance, Tecchikawahara consistently demonstrated his suitability for leadership within the village, embodying the qualities that make him an ideal leader.

Despite spending his entire life working with swords, Tecchin Tecchikawahara struggles to wield one effectively in critical situations. In the attack on Swordsmith Village led by Gyokko and Hantengu, he was unable to protect himself, and would have met a tragic end had it not been for Love Hashira’s timely arrival.

6. Senjuro Rengoku

Shinjuro Rengoku’s Son

  • Manga Debut: Chapter 67
  • Anime Debut: Episode 34

As the younger sibling of the Fire Pillar Hashira, Senjuro Rengoku, is a compassionate teenager who was anticipated to succeed Kyojuro. However, despite his diligent training and tireless effort, his swordsmanship didn’t quite measure up to that of his father or brother at his age. Unfortunately, Senjuro, who should have been Kyojuro’s heir, struggled immensely in mastering a breathing technique and was compelled to abandon his aspirations as a swordsman.

The Rengokus were known for producing two great leaders, but Senjuro couldn’t live up to their legacy. This left him feeling inadequate and unsuccessful. Gradually, he accepted his circumstances and resolved to seek out a different path in life.

5. Aoi Kanzaki

Demon Slayer Who Became a Helper

  • Manga Debut: Chapter 48
  • Anime Debut: Episode 23

At the Butterfly Mansion, Aoi Kanzaki serves as both nurturing and disciplined assistant, assisting with the recovery of demon slayers. Among the characters listed, she’s one of the select few to pass the ultimate selection process. However, despite surviving this ordeal, Kanzaki harbors feelings of cowardice within herself, believing she lacks the warrior spirit necessary for combat.

In comparison to all of you, I hold a humble place, and gratitude isn’t required from me. My survival through the selection process was more about good fortune than any special abilities I possess. This experience has instilled fear within me, making me more cautious on the battlefield, some might even say I exhibit cowardice. Yet, I remain eager to stand by your side and contribute in my own way.

Aoi has been an apprentice under Shinobu, the Butterfly Pillar, and possesses skills in creating medications. While Aoi doesn’t engage in direct combat against demons, her knowledge significantly aids the Demon Slayer Corps through her proficiency in medicine.

4. Goto

The Caring Attendant to the Demon Slayer Corps

  • Manga Debut: Chapter 45
  • Anime Debut: Episode 21

For quite a while, Goto has been part of the secretive organization known as Kakushi. Despite being powerful enough to be a demon slayer in the past, he opted to work as an attendant instead. He is a man of integrity who frequently finds the quirky personas of demon slayers rather bothersome.

Goto has been the head of the cleanup teams following perilous missions such as the fight in the Entertainment district. Remarkably, despite his ability to combat demons, he has demonstrated no inclination towards wielding weapons.

3. Hotaru Haganezuka

Expert Swordsmith

  • Manga Debut: Chapter 9
  • Anime Debut: Episode 5

Hotaru Haganezuka is a temperamental blacksmith who’s been side by side with Tanjiro since he joined the Demon Slayer team. Being from a long line of master smiths, it’s no wonder that Hotaru has an extensive understanding and exceptional talent in creating Nichirin swords. Despite spending numerous years working alongside the Demon Slayer Corps, Hotaru lacks both the courage and ability to engage in combat with demons.

2. Amane Ubuyashiki

The Priestess With a Heart of Gold

  • Manga Debut: Chapter 66
  • Anime Debut: Episode 33

Amane was a tranquil, collected, and caring individual who tied the knot with Kagaya Ubuyashiki at a tender age. Hailing from a lineage of priests, she was selected to manage the medical requirements of the Demon Slayer Corps’ previous commander.

It appears that the Hashira, gearing up for what lies ahead, have banded together and are now training other swordsmen under their guidance. In essence, they are ensuring that your wishes persist, as they strive tirelessly with great determination – all in a bid to vanquish Muzan Kibutsuji forever, according to your fervent wish.

Amane consistently remained loyal to her husband Kagaya throughout their journey, staying by his side even when he confronted his greatest adversary, Muzan. Her devotion to him transcended any apprehension about death, and despite not being a fighter herself, she embraced her destiny without hesitation.

1. Kagaya Ubuyashiki

Demon Slayer Corps’ Greatest Leader

  • Manga Debut: Chapter 46
  • Anime Debut: Episode 22

Leading member of the Ubuyashiki household and previous commander of the Demon Slayer Organization, Kagaya, exerted a significant impact on the human-demon struggle. He enacted groundbreaking choices and employed tactics that fortified his troops in their battle against Muzan. Regrettably, due to a family affliction that reduced his lifespan and debilitated his physical capabilities, Kagaya was unable to engage in combat himself.

In the midst of yearning to participate more aggressively in conflicts against the Demon King, Ubuyashiki’s weak physique was unable to endure the harm that even common demons could inflict. Despite this, he continued to guide the Demon Slayer Corps with faith that Muzan would be vanquished. In a selfless act of sacrifice, his life came to an end.
