Yoriichi Tsugikuni’s humiliating loss over Muzan led to his acknowledgement of the breathing demon’s entire attention. Now, who could have been more suitable than the samurai’s brother from his nightmares? You did read that correctly. Greater Moon 1 The first person to use sun breathing was Kokushibo, who was also the brother of the greatest Demon Slayer in history. Kokushibo’s fear of a premature death was preyed upon by Muzan, who succeeded in persuading him to transform into a demon. We have compiled all of Kokushibo’s skills and talents in this place.
The only demon Muzan could rely on and his best asset was Upper Moon 1. With each combat, Kokushibo continued to refine his Moon breathing while serving the demon kingpin for decades. He was regarded by every other demon, even Doma and Akaza, as the height of Muzan’s creation. Kokushibo has learned 16 different types of moon breathing by the start of the Infinity castle arc, each of which is more than sufficient to defeat a Hashira.
How Did Kokushibe Become a Demon?
Kokushibo had the life he craved after Yoriichi left. He succeeded his father, wed a woman, and had a lovely family. He resolved to accept his position as the second choice despite his deep-seated feelings of jealousy. But fate had other ideas for him. Years later, he reconnected with his brother, who had previously rescued him from a demon. When he observed what a perfect man Yoriichi had become into, the flames of envy were rekindled.
In order to join the Demon Slayer Corps, he deserted his family. He developed his own method, the moon breathing, because despite his best efforts, he was unable to perfect the sun breathing. His swordplay significantly improved over time, and he eventually released his Demon Slayer mark. When the mark bearers began dying one by one, the heavens suddenly fell onto him. When Muzan offered him the opportunity to become, he accepted out of fear that he would fulfil his destiny before his brother did. He hoped to one day outdo Yoriichi, therefore he sought the long lifespan of demons to hone his swordsmanship skills.
Kokushibo’s Early Life
Kokushibo, as I mentioned at the outset, was Yoriichi’s identical twin. Kokushibo was raised as his father’s heir and lavished with attention as a child due to the lack of marks on his face. He was trained by the best warriors in the kingdom from an early age because he aspired to be a samurai. Yoriichi, on the other hand, was despised by everyone and given a tiny room to reside in. He remained silent and daily observed Kokushibo from afar. At one point, Kokushibo gave his brother a flute to play since he was feeling sorry for him.
But before long, things started to go in the other direction. On a pivotal occasion, Yoriichi defeated Kokushibo’s instructor in combat, exposing his actual prowess. The news quickly reached their father, who immediately turned to Yoriichi to choose the next leader. Kokushibo, seeing his hopes dashed, hated his brother from the bottom of his heart for being the more accomplished sibling. Fortunately, Yoriichi had no desire for the crown and fled when his mother passed away.
Powers and Abilities of Kokushibo
Kokushibo’s regeneration power and stamina are most comparable to Muzan’s. What you would anticipate from the swordsman who drank the most of Muzan’s blood. You can tell how powerful he is since he simultaneously outmatched Himejima, Sanemi, Muichiro, and Genya for the most of the fight. His swordsmanship has advanced to a completely new level thanks to years of practise. He demonstrated twelve various variations of Moon breathing as well as his capacity to enter the transparent world during the Infinity Castle arc.
In addition, he has complete control over the length and shape of his sword, making it impossible to predict his actions. With regard to his Blood Demon Art, he is able to fire projectiles in the shape of crescents that can cut through flesh like a hot knife through butter. Forget about his katana; even someone like Hashiras would find it difficult to dodge the sheer number of those blades.
