Yoriichi Tsugikuni lived about 500 years ago during the Sengoku period. He is the strongest demon hunter ever in history.

Yoriichi is the creator of the Sun Breathing Technique which eventually evolved into the Hinokami Kagura used by Tanjiro and the other members of the Kamado family.

He has a twin named Michikatsu Tsugikuni who will later become a demon and join the 12 moon demons.

Yoriichi is a patient person and really respects other people. He always has a calm facial expression and rarely shows his feelings.

Because of his nature and expressions, not many people understand how Yoriichi really feels except his wife, Uta.

Little Yoriichi always admired his older brother. Michikatsu had a dream of becoming the strongest samurai in all the land, so Yoriichi said that he would become the second strongest samurai after his brother.

Yoriichi is a person who really loves his family. He tried to take care of his sick mother without anyone knowing.

He also continued to look after his father without telling anyone how he was treated as a child and how his father did not love him.

Yoriichi continued to keep the flute his brother gave him when he left home until death took him.

After 60 years, Yoriichi meets Michikatsu again who has found a new life as a devil.

Feeling very devastated, Yoriichi cried for his brother. Despite this, he still tried to kill Michikatsu to prevent him from becoming a traitor to the Demon Slayer Corps.

Known as the strongest demon hunter in history, Yoriichi was born with the Demon Slayer Mark which allows him to access the Transparent World and Selfless State.

At the age of seven, despite having never held a sword at all, he managed to defeat a trained swordsman without having to try hard.

At the same age, Yoriichi also has excellent stamina and endurance. He can run all day without having to rest.

He also managed to survive without food or drink for 10 full days during the mourning period for the loss of his beloved wife.

After undergoing training as a demon hunter, Yoriichi was able to defeat several demons at once.

Among the other Demon Slayer troops, Yoriichi was able to corner and even put Kibutsuji Muzan on the verge of death until he could barely escape.

Yoriichi has the best speed and reflexes of all the characters in this anime, where he managed to block all the attacks that Muzan launched at him.

In addition to extraordinary physical strength and fighting skills, Yoriichi also mastered the supernatural power to detect the presence of demons from long distances.

With this ability, he can differentiate between demonic and human auras and estimate the abilities of the opponents he faces.

Yoriichi himself uses a medium-sized Nichirin katana weapon with a black color that turns bright red when in battle.

The hilt of the sword has a circular shape with 4 small indentations with black in the middle and gold on the edges.

In the Swordsmith Village Arc Yoriichi's sword is found after his death, hidden in a fighting doll modeled after him.
