Serpent Breathing
Serpent Breathing is a distinctive form of combat present in the Demon Slayer series. Derived from Water Breathing, it emulates the movements and abilities of serpents, focusing on twisting and bending the sword akin to a slithering snake.
The techniques are indirect and constantly meander, offering unpredictability in striking. Users visualize manifesting white serpents when executing the techniques, enhancing their combat capabilities. This breathing style is associated with Obanai Iguro and requires a twisted blade comparable to an Indonesian Kris Sword.
Notable techniques include Winding Serpent Slash, Venom Fangs of the Narrow Head, Coil Choke, Serpent's Bite, and Serpent's Wrath. Each technique demonstrates the prowess and distinctiveness of Serpent Breathing, making it a formidable and agile combat style within the Demon Slayer universe.
