Known for its stunning animation by Ufotable and dynamic fight sequences, Demon Slayer has become a global phenomenon, praised for both its visual artistry and heartfelt narrative.

The Demon Slayer Corps is a fictional organization from Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. It is a secret group of trained swordsmen and warriors who protect humanity from demons. Members of the Corps use special breathing techniques, intense physical training, and Nichirin swords, which are blades made from ore that absorbs sunlight and can kill demons. The organization is led by the Ubuyashiki family, and its strongest fighters are called the Hashira, or Pillars. Demon Slayers usually work at night because demons cannot survive sunlight, and their main mission is to hunt demons, protect innocent people, and eventually defeat Muzan Kibutsuji, the first and most powerful demon.

The Upper Moons are the six strongest demons in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and are part of Muzan Kibutsuji’s elite group called the Twelve Kizuki. They are ranked from Upper Moon One to Upper Moon Six, with Upper Moon One being the most powerful. The original Upper Moons are Kokushibo, Doma, Akaza, Hantengu, Gyokko, and Gyutaro and Daki, who share the Upper Moon Six position as siblings. Each Upper Moon has terrifying abilities, unique Blood Demon Arts, and enough strength to challenge or defeat Hashira-level Demon Slayers. Later in the story, after some Upper Moons are defeated, new demons such as Nakime and Kaigaku rise into Upper Moon positions.
