Hi J&J! Just to elaborate a little more of what a Tsuguko is..., basically, a super-elite Demon Slayer who becomes a direct apprentice or successor to a Hashira. Not all Demon Slayers get this chance, and it takes a ton of skill and luck to catch a Hashira’s eye and notice a promising young fighter. The chosen Tsuguko gets close training from a Hashira, learning their techniques and fighting styles. This prepares them to take over if the Hashira decides to retire or dies :( . The Tsuguko are super lucky because they get more one-on-one training than other Demon Slayers :) in this case Kanao is Shinobu's Tsuguko! Hope this helps!!

2025-03-25 22:18:19 +0000 UTCit's not necessarily a spoiler though (i think). it's not explicitly said until later in the show but it's heavily implied from the start given that he's animated/drawn without pupils. i guess people just miss it.

2025-03-25 03:24:45 +0000 UTCIt gets mentioned in the recent season so I can’t say for sure if it’s a spoiler. Mainly since a lot of people said they didn’t know that he was until it was confirmed in the anime

2025-03-25 00:47:12 +0000 UTCJust letting y’all know that the stone Hashira is blind, you can see he doesn’t have eyes , I know some people misinterpret it to be just a character design.

2025-03-24 21:45:34 +0000 UTCJust a question for y’all, who do you guys think is the strongest between the Hashiras when you first met them?

2025-03-24 21:23:59 +0000 UTCI meant to comment on the seppuku last week, and I forgot, so here it is now from a history nerd. Seppuku/harakiri, both meaning 'stomach cutting', is a traditional samurai method of ritual suicide by disembowelment, done to either restore or maintain honor. It's been around since about the 1100's, and could be used as a capital punishment, a way to keep from falling into enemy hands after a failed battle, or to atone for a sin or failing before one's feudal lord. It would typically be something a samurai chooses to do themself to restore honor to themself or their family, but can be forced in the case of a death sentence, allowing the punished to "atone" by taking their own life. It has ties with bushido, the way of the warrior, so it comes up often in stories set in the Sengoku Jidai/Warring States period. It's supposed to represent an "honorable death". It's generally done as a ritual, complete with cleansing beforehand, the wearing of white robes, a special placement in a clear area, usually before a feudal lord or crowd to witness. There's the samurai and their 'second' (kaishakunin), but there are cases where it's done without a second. The samurai would take a sword or short sword, split their belly horizontally left to right, and then the kaishakunin would decapitate them. This part would be like a mercy kill, instead of allowing the samurai to bleed out over time. There's a famous Japanese movie from the 60's called 'Harakiri' that revolves around this, with the samurai narrating his story before the crowd as he prepares to commit seppuku (highly recommended movie). There's also the tale of the 47 Ronin, who lost their lord, formed a rebellion, lost and were forced to commit seppuku en masse. And there are plenty of stories as recent as WWII, of Japanese soldiers (and sadly civilians in places like Iwo Jima) who chose to commit seppuku rather than face defeat or capture.
