The anime of Demon Hunter has just released the crucial episode of the second season, which brings us from the reinterpretation of the “Mugen bow“and lets us immerse ourselves in the longingly awaited”Arc entertainment district“.
This transitional episode of history looks like Tanjiro brings his family the latest news left by the Kyojuro Rengoku pillar of flames, and he unexpectedly comes across even more clues about the ultimate breathing technique of the Demon Slayer Body: The Breathing of the Sun.
The more we learn about the sun breathing technique, the clearer it becomes that this fighting style is deeply connected to Tanjiro’s story and the Key to victory over the evil demon lord Muzan.
Tanjiro meets Senjuro, Rengoku’s little brother, it’s his Father Shinjuro Rengoku, a violent drinker. When Shinjuro (formerly the Pillar of Flame) sees Tanjiro, he freaks about the earrings Tanjiro has been wearing since the first episode of Demon Slayer, claiming he knows they are an icon for a Sun Breath user.
ONE Scuffle between Shinjuro and Tanjiro ends with the first screaming to know that Tanjiro is making fun of him and Rengoku’s memory, as the Pillar of Flame was not powerful enough to survive a higher-ranking demon and the Sunbreath user would obviously have been limited to him to look down on this lesser power.
Shinjuro’s drunken rage actually reveals a great deal about the mysterious power of sun breathing. The former pillar of flame reveals that Sun breathing is the original and most powerful breathing technique developed by the demon slayers, the rest of the breathing techniques (earth, wind, fire, water, sound, thunder, fog, etc.) are simply offshoots developed by those who cannot master the true power of sun breathing.
This is an important revelation as it redraws the story of Tanjiro’s family and his father’s mysterious “Hinokami Kagura” dance. Could the key to ultimate power have been (literally) in Tanjiro’s hands all along?
This episode of the Demon Slayer anime also suggests a darker turning point in the history of Sun Breathing users. A very brief flashback during the Shinjuro outbreak shows thatImage of a mysterious character from behind, believed to be a former swordsmith using sun breathing who was part of the Demon Slayer Corps.
However, when Tanjiro and Senjuro later return and attempt to investigate Shinjuro’s protocol on the history of the demon killing, they make a surprising discovery: the pages on the breath of the sun have been torn from register.
Why is Sun Breathing so hidden in the ranks of the Demon Slayer? And what does that mean for Tanjiro’s family history? These are two major doubts that have been expressed in these final episodes. Do you have any theories about this? We remind you that you can watch the episodes of Demon Slayer 2 on Crunchyroll.
