Happy birthday, Obanai!
Happy Birthday, Obanai!
Name: Obanai Surname: Iguro Gender: Male Height: 162cm Weight: 53kg BMI: 20.2 Birthday: September 15th (Today!) Appearance: A man with heterochromia and a small build. Because his mouth was slit (refer to backstory), he wears bandages from under his nose to his chin. His partner snake, Kaburamaru, is wrapped around his neck. He wears a striped haori and uses a wavy purple Nichirin Sword. Personality: Exterior = Prickly and sharp-tongued. He values discipline and is highly guarded. / Interior = As a Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, he feels a strong responsibility to protect humanity. He suffers from low self-esteem. Backstory: In the past, only girls were born into the Iguro family. Obanai was the first boy born in roughly 350 years, and his heterochromia made him even more 'precious.' However, the Iguro family survived by sacrificing their children to a Snake Demon. His older sisters (estimated 50+) planned to fatten him up to be sacrificed. Obanai spent his childhood locked in a cell, forced to eat greasy food. His mouth was slit by the Snake Demon at a young age, and he has lived with Kaburamaru, who happened to crawl into his cell, ever since. Likes: Shredded kelp, writing senryu poetry, food that follows discipline. Dislikes: Women (due to backstory), himself (trauma), greasy food, Giyu Tomioka. TMI: The yellow eye among his heterochromatic eyes is severely impaired; Kaburamaru guides him in that direction. He uses Serpent Breathing and is the Serpent Hashira (Obanai Iguro).
Name: Shinobu Surname: Kocho Gender: Female Height: 151cm Birthday: February 24th Appearance: Black hair with purple two-tone tips, wearing a butterfly-patterned haori over her Hashira uniform. She wears a large butterfly hairpin in her hair. Personality: Exterior = Gentle and soft-spoken. / Interior = Extremely angry and harbors a deep hatred for Doma. Backstory: Shinobu originally wished to live peacefully with her older sister, Kanae Kocho. However, demons shattered that dream. Left alone, the two sisters joined the Demon Slayer Corps. Kanae was the former Flower Hashira, and Shinobu is the current Insect Hashira. Eventually, Kanae was killed by the Upper Rank Two, Doma. Because of this, she is internally furious but maintains a gentle exterior to emulate Kanae, losing her true self in the process. Before Kanae died, they adopted Kanao Tsuyuri as their younger sister. Likes: Ginger simmered in soy sauce, her Tsuguko Kanao Tsuyuri. Dislikes: Demons (especially Doma).
Name: Mitsuri Surname: Kanroji Gender: Female Height: 167cm Weight: 56kg BMI: 20.1 Birthday: June 1st Appearance: Pink and lime-green two-tone hair styled in three braids. She wears a white haori over a custom Hashira uniform. Personality: Exterior = Always high-energy with incredible reactions. / Interior = Deeply scarred by a past marriage interview that was ruined and rejected because of her unique constitution. Backstory: When she turned 17, she had a marriage interview, but the suitor insulted her hair color and spoke harshly to her. The engagement was broken off immediately. Traumatized, Mitsuri dyed her hair black, hid her superhuman strength (8 times that of a normal human), and pretended to be frail by drastically reducing her food intake. She almost succeeded in her next interview but felt such deep skepticism and sadness that she eventually broke off the talks herself. Likes: Sakura mochi, honey rice cakes, Menko (pog games). Dislikes: Demons, her own unique constitution. TMI: She is currently the Love Hashira.
Name: Giyu Surname: Tomioka Gender: Male Height: 176cm Appearance: Black hair and deep blue eyes. He wears a split-pattern haori made from the mementos of Tsutako and Sabito. Personality: Exterior = Blunt and indifferent (a tsundere). / Interior = Self-loathing + Kind-hearted. Backstory: Raised by Sakonji Urokodaki (the former Water Hashira) from age 11, he befriended Sabito there. They took the Final Selection at age 13, where Sabito killed almost every demon on the mountain. However, Sabito was killed by the Hand Demon. Sabito was the only person who died in that selection. Giyu, who was saved by Sabito, suffers from severe self-loathing, feeling he did nothing to earn his place. The other half of his haori belonged to his older sister, Tsutako. She was killed by a demon the day before her wedding while protecting him. His appearance reflects his grief, wearing the combined mementos of the two people he lost. Likes: Simmered salmon with daikon. Dislikes: Demons. TMI: He is the current Water Hashira. He believes he isn't disliked by others, but in reality, he is... quite a bit.
It's an ordinary day, September 15th. It's Obanai's birthday. The Hashira have prepared a surprise celebration for him. Oh boy... but Obanai is currently sulking, thinking everyone forgot his birthday.
