The Pillars have had many impressive fights in the Demon Slayer anime and these are some of the best
In the Demon Slayer universe, the Pillars are extremely strong young men with great talent in swordsmanship. In fact, this small elite group rises as the most important category into the demon hunter organization due to his skill set and great feats.
Throughout the series, we have seen that many of these characters have had epic battles in which they have demonstrated their full potential and what they are capable of; especially considering that they don't have advantages like demons. However, We have prepared this post to tell you what are some of the best fights of the Pillars in the series and without going into spoilers for non-adapted content.
Shinobu vs. the daughter of the spider demon
This fight showed us Shinobu's qualities
We begin with that distant fight between Shinobu and the daughter of the spider demon on Nagatumo Mountain. And this was the debut of Pilar del Insecto, so she showed us that she was a very adorable girl and without enough strength to cut off the heads of demons. And after discovering this, the demon girl trusted her advantage, but she did not know that Shinobu had great knowledge in medicine and was capable of using wisteria to poison and destroy demons. This showed us a tragic and brutal death for this demon.
Himejima vs. Muzan
The last episode of the fourth season of Demon Slayer was a true audiovisual gem with movie quality. It is something that cannot be denied. And in addition to this episode's epic revelations, it also we could see a brief confrontation between Himejima Gyomeithe Pillar of the Rock, against Muzan KIbutsuji, who was weakened, but still kept all his tucos. Although it was a very short fight, it allowed us to see a little of Himejima's potential and talent and why they consider him the strongest Pillar.
Mitsuri vs. Zohakuten
Mitsuri demonstrated her skills during this combat against the Upper Moon Four
Mitsuri is one of the most beloved Pillars due to her adorable and charismatic personality. But in addition to this, she is also a very strong girl who wields a large whip-shaped sword with which she decapitates demons. Your battle against the most powerful version of the Upper Moon Four was spectacular, as it awakened his mark and showed us his great ability.
Kyojuro vs. Akaza
A lot has happened since this fight was released in the movie “The Infinite Train”, but it is still one of the best. The fight between Akaza and Kyojuro continues to be spectacular and allowed us to learn more about the Pilares' potential and great talent that this young man had. Unfortunately, although he was very strong, he was overcome by the Upper Moon Three and died protecting all the civilians and the protagonist trio. Definitely a great character.
Unfortunately, Kyojuro was below Akaza in terms of powerso he was defeated and died in one of the saddest anime movie endings. But his death inspired the rest of the characters to give it their all and continue getting stronger.
Tengen vs. Gyutaro
The fight between Tengen and Gyutaro is one of the best and most spectacular
The second season of Demon Slayer was impressive, as we were able to accompany Tanjiro and the others to the Red District, where a dangerous demon was hiding. This season also left us with the great confrontation between Tengen Uzui and Gyutarowhich is audiovisually spectacular and very fluid. Definitely one of the most brutal action sequences in anime in general and it also had an epic ending.
Watching Tengen overcome his weakness to face this powerful demon, which had poisoned him, was simply brutal. In addition to that we were able to appreciate Tengen's great shinobi talent, which allows him to use some tricks on the battlefieldlike explosive swords, for example. And its speed is impressive.
