Description

Personality

Gyutaro is a cruel and ruthless demon, driven by a deep-seated resentment stemming from a harsh and impoverished human life. His personality is marked by intense envy and a desire for revenge against those he perceives as more fortunate. He revels in inflicting suffering and finds twisted satisfaction in mocking his opponents before killing them. Despite his cruelty, a strong, albeit complex, love for his sister Daki remains a core aspect of his character, influencing his actions and revealing a surprising depth beneath his monstrous exterior. His arrogance and pride, born from years of battling Demon Slayers, often lead him to underestimate his adversaries. However, his tactical intellect and combat prowess are undeniable, making him a formidable opponent. Even in death, his final thoughts reveal a surprising regret, not for his own actions, but for the negative impact he had on his sister's life, highlighting a complex and ultimately tragic character arc.

Abilities

Gyutaro, as an Upper Rank Six demon, possesses a formidable array of abilities stemming from his demonic physiology and his Blood Demon Art. His core can detach and merge with his sister Daki's, granting him enhanced senses and control over her actions. This connection also makes him immune to decapitation; only the simultaneous beheading of both siblings can kill them. He exhibits exceptional regeneration, healing from grievous wounds almost instantly, even those inflicted by Wisteria-laced weapons. His immense strength and speed allow him to overpower even Hashira-level opponents. His Blood Demon Art, Hemokinesis, allows him to manipulate his blood into razor-sharp sickles, coated in a potent, rapidly-acting poison that weakens and kills even those with high poison resistance. He can generate these blood sickles from his body or his flesh Kama, controlling their trajectory and forming them into various attacks, including wide-ranging circular slashes capable of devastating entire areas. His flesh manipulation allows him to create and control his Kama, even trapping opponents' blades within his flesh. His tactical intellect and combat experience further enhance his already formidable abilities, making him a highly dangerous and cunning opponent. Even his physical attributes, such as his durability and stamina, are greatly enhanced by his demonic nature. Beyond his core abilities, Gyutaro displays mastery of dual Kama, utilizing his flesh-based weapons with deadly precision and speed. His fighting style is described as resembling that of a praying mantis, emphasizing swift, precise strikes. He also demonstrates a high level of tactical awareness, coordinating his attacks with Daki's to overwhelm his opponents. His overall power is such that he was able to fight evenly with Tengen Uzui, a Hashira, and nearly defeat Tanjiro Kamado, Zenitsu Agatsuma, and Inosuke Hashibira simultaneously.
