SHINBOU: NO ONE LIKES YOU Giyuu: Rank 4th on the popularity pole

ah yes the depression breathing pillar

This poor guys misery is practically a meme in the demon slayer fandom

I know most people say that Giyuu is probably middle of pack when it comes to strength among the Hashira, but let's not forget that this man is so unbelievably fast that in his 11th form, he deflects all damage in such a manner to where he doesn't appear to move at all. Thats some Thunder Breathing type speed right there

Ngl ,if Tanjirou would have seriously died in the final battle, that would have put the final nail in the coffin for breaking Giyuu ,so I'm glad it didn't happen 😐

One of the big things also about 'dead calm' a lull in the waves is a terrifying things because what it means is all the ferocity that was above the surface is hidden in the water below.

He thinks he didn’t deserve to be the water pillar but he was the most deserving

Shinobu: "No one likes you" Tanjiro, Nezuko, Urokodaki, Sabito: **laughs**

Shinobu: "Nobody like you~" Kny popularity chat: *Laughs*

11th form: lull Also known as *Dead inside*

He's got a cool flow

I know people would describe Giyu is emotionless or hallow, but it seems way more like closed-off intentionally, even if he doesn't quite realize it. It honestly reminds me more of that, PTSD, and even some depression. If he was emotionless or hallow, he wouldn't have chanced Nezuko or Tanjiro, and would only let logic dictate his actions. I don't see him as emotionless. I see a man who is broken, maybe feels empty, and has adapted to that feeling over many years. But then again, I've only got to the Mugen (?) Train Arc, and am currently reading the manga, so who knows how I'll feel as the series progresses.

I’m gonna say this again but this is exactly why Giyuu is one of my fave characters. His character is written beautifully. Some might say how he is a textbook tsundere type guy but really, he’s a nice person who’s just not good at talking. He takes everything seriously but able to smile! (Referring to his gaiden omg he smiled looking at salmon daki😭) so yeah. He’s really just an introvert guy but totally not a bad guy. He is also extremely skilled given his low confidence. He is also a very responsible person. He does his tasks 1000% but still has his own principles. 💯

Mentor and student fighting a villain side-by-side and triumphing with the student surpassing the mentor is such a great trope in general. Something similar also happened in Black Clover a while ago.

How he grew so warm and respected Tanjiro was so sick

Some of my favorite moments from this series were when some demons regain a little bit of their humanity right before they die, and when you get a glimpse at what caused them to become a demon it's almost always some sad event in their lives when they were human. Spoiler: Like the martial artist demon, if I remember correctly he was taken in by a dojo and was treated like he was the master's son, and was in love with the master's daughter, until a rival school poisoned their well resulting in everyone dying, he would then go to that school and viciously murder everyone there before encountering the demon king later that night and being offered to become a demon, he accepted because he felt he had nothing left. Or if I remember correctly the drummer demon who was a writer who never felt he was good enough, and ultimately became a demon when the person he trusted the most ridiculed both him and his work and called it trash.

Shinobu: No one likes you Also Shinobu: Its nice to hang out with him

If you ever thought that Tomioka is bad or useless or deserves that no one likes him remember that Tomioka is the one and only reason Tanjiro became a demon slayer at all the beginning

I once saw a video that displayed Giyu's depictions in most of the promotional material. Almost all them depict him as away from every other pillar. It kind of makes me sad and laugh that even in ads, the pillars want to get away from him.

Shinobu: "No one likes you." Giyuu: "Yeah, well at least I live!"

The lonely pillar

He making the same pose as Vergil from DMC5.

0:27 - 0:32 *that is a lot of words that start with "s"*

First 2 words: "Survivor's guilt" Me: hoooo boy here we go again

I’ve been waiting for this,thanks bro Tomioka one of my favourite characters in Kimetsu No Yaiba

"Would you people quit saving me?!"

Spoilers I always felt kinda bad for him since he’s lost so many friends like sabito and shinobu. He rarely showed emotion but when he heard that shinobu died you can tell how distraught he was, and when he’s usually stoic seeing him like that hurts

Sounds like Giyu suffers from anhedonia. Which would be in line with his character as anhedonia is a symptom of depression often described prolonged phase of mourning.

Everyone likes Giyuu.

I don't think I've really heard too much about Demon Slayer ever since the manga ended, so being reminded of everything that happened in the manga and all the characters' deaths made me really sad. All in all, I think this was a great video

*GIYUU IS LIKE KAKSHI: HE GREW UP WATCHING PEOPLE CLOSE TIME ALWAYS DIE*

THERE HE IS! THERE HE IS! My SON!

(Everyone except Sabito survived) Cries in Makomo

Been waiting for this one

Hope you do a character study on the demons as well like on Akaza or Kokoshibo. Oh, you can also do "building a bastard" on Douma or Kaigaku.

Dude I absolutely love your videos and the quality of them keep up the fantastic work my dude

Amazing video 🙌 Thanks for all the research and putting it up together. Enjoyed every bit of it!

Awesome research has gone into this, I absolutely adore this type of content! Thank you and my subscription is yours!!! ❤️

I hope they do an OVA on the two chapter spin-off series of Giyu.

I really love tomioka

If Tanjiro did die, Giyuu would probably have the third pattern on his cloak

I’m glad Giyuu managed to save Tanjirou pretty sure if he died Giyuu would been completely broken

Outstanding alliteration, that was absolutely amazing.

Amazing video as always!!

Thank You for the Videos.

Giyuu when Nezuko didn’t eat anyone so he can’t kill himself: 😔

WE ARE THE GIYU FORCE!

AH YES SAD BOI TIME

I really like Giyuu Tomioka a lot now.

I love giyuu But i love him even more now coz i understand it better now Thank you very much sir💙

I literally love giyuu so much, he's my favourite character

What if he randomly smiled and everyone start suspecting him as an imposter

I would love a Akaza or Tanjiro analysis I thoroughly enjoyed this video

____ was a normal, albeit talented child! That is until demons came and slaughtered their close ones... Now which Kimetsu character am I talking about?

I love your demon slayer vids the most please keep doing them!!!!

Please (if there is enough known knowledge) do a video on Kokushibo. I absolutely love him,

Thank you for this video. Giyu was my favorite character from the first episode of the anime and I blew through the manga to find out the rest of his story. The way you presented his story is very insightful and really reinforces why I like his character so much.

I thought Giyuu's half and half kimono, sorry if that's not the right term, is supposed to represent his sister's kimono and Sabito's Kimono. I'm sure other people noticed that too.

Yess a new video love youu ❤️ ❤️

Hope your channel blows up one day

A really fleshed out mentor character wih his own arc. Ever looking at tower of god and the styles, like baam is pretty water styled, later, season one is prologue. And shinsoo is somewhat "divine water" Interesting characters. Especially endorsi(the wholw shoe metaphor) and khun an a lot of character designs.And white and others, hansung is great.

this is a certified "we aren't connected by blood, but we're brothers" moment

The series cut of sabito which has the potential to become one of the best characters

Hope you can do Beauty of Reimi Sugimoto one day

I think we can all say that giyuu is probably our favorite hashira other than rengoku!

SANEMI NEXT PLEASE. IVE BEEN WAITING.

This may be Giyu but the pose is giving me motivation

(눈_눈)------>( ◡‿◡✿) Giyu's Journey

gawd he's so handsome

Meti: "A single powerful vertical slash." Tanjiro: *Does a horizontal slash*

Do yushiro and tamayo as a pair soon please.

It's been a long time coming

Ok so, I know this might be VERY off-topic. But I found it really cool that the background art for the video for Tomioka is the same pose for Vergil in Devil May Cry 5. Plus, Tomioka’s backstory has a lot of similar moments as Vergil’s. I just thought it was really neat.

At 12:00 You can see the silhouette of I think Rui or his sister if you look close enough.

Bahaha- I’m just laughing that it shows what Giyuu thinks about the pillars. Shinobu: WEAK Lmaooo

He says ‘Urokoroki’ *everyone else says ‘Urokodaki’* 13:32

Beautiful character all the way around

I only wish that giyu and shibou were a Canon ship, I think we all can agree on that.

Ooooh early nice!!!

Blessed rain after a drought. It’s just so incredibly awesome.

he boy, he do boy things, he’s beautiful

Giyuu is my favorite character but imagine if sabito reached his prime…

dude the alliteration was amazing 😩😩

Giyuu's pose in the thumbnail reminded me of a certain storm that is approaching

Giyuus the best character

Giyuu Tomioka is the the one with the most beautiful yet sad backstory amongst the Hashira in my opinion..

SO GOOD.

Mt fav character ever

Love the use of Tidal Tempest

The full solid colred one is the color of the kimono i think of his sister that sacrificed her life to save him thats why he wears it

The alliteration of this guy is phenomenal 😂

The drought for the 5th form can be the lack of blood a demon would go through to show they have changed

Giyu really needs a hug

Do a video of Akaza...Also Giyuu and Tanjiro didn't beat Akaza, he gave up in the end and killed himself.

Hey can you do a video about akaza the upper moon 3 deamon plz

Now I'm waiting for "Muzan: King of Demons" video

I read somewhere that the solid color side came from his sister and the other side from sabito

Can we get a glory to Inosuke video please.

What would you guys call Pillar that uses multiple breathing styles I was thinking the Multi Pillar or the Elemental Pillar

Giyuu was my favorite pillar because he was the first to accept Nezuki and I personally don’t like Shinobu because in the spider forest arc she seemed to be needlessly cruel to the sister and her first instinct when she saw Nezuki was to kill Nezuki Tanjiro and when Giyuu defends them she attempts to
