Tanjiro, Nezuko, Genya and Mitsuri Vs Hantengu
Tanjiro, Nezuko, Genya, and Mitsuri found themselves embroiled in a grueling confrontation with the formidable Upper-Rank 4, Hantengu. The demon, adept at shrinking himself, proved elusive as he darted through the forest with the agility of a mouse, leaving the group struggling to keep up. Hantengu's Demon Art manifested a tumult of powerful adversaries, diverting Nezuko, Genya, and Mitsuri's attention, while Tanjiro relentlessly pursued the elusive demon.
Despite Tanjiro managing to catch up, the battle took a harrowing turn. Hantengu's evasive maneuvers thwarted Tanjiro's attempts to sever his head, adding a layer of complexity to an already arduous confrontation. As dawn approached, Tanjiro faced a poignant dilemma: protect Nezuko from the impending sunlight or continue the pursuit to vanquish Hantengu. Opting to shield his sister, Nezuko surprised him by forcefully kicking him away, urging him to pursue the elusive demon.
The intense battle unfolded over multiple episodes, culminating in Tanjiro overcoming the combined threat posed by Upper Ranks 4 and 5. However, the victory came at a grave cost—Nezuko's apparent sacrifice. Unbeknownst to Tanjiro, his sister emerged unscathed, immune to the sun's rays. This revelation hinted at future trials, as Nezuko exhibited a unique trait coveted by Demon King Muzan—an unforeseen twist in the ongoing saga of hardship and conflict.
