Life Story of Kokushibo Demon Slayer

Under the turbulent skies of the Sengoku era, Michikatsu Tsugikuni was born as a samurai with extraordinary talent. His blade danced like lightning and his name was etched in history as the first Hashira of the Mist.

However, his ambitious nature to surpass human limits has led him down the wrong path.

One day, Michikatsu meets Muzan Kibutsuji the demon king and accepts his offer. Then Michikatsu falls, abandons his humanity and is reborn as Kokushibo.

With this demonic power, Kokushibo becomes stronger but full of cruelty. Kokushibo did not hesitate to kill humans, even his own family.
