He is characterized by short black hair and sharp, narrow eyes, featuring heterochromia with different colored eyes. Due to an incident in his childhood, he has a large scar around his mouth which he always keeps hidden behind bandages. A white snake, Kaburamaru, is constantly coiled around his neck. He exudes a cold and mysterious aura overall; his lack of facial expressions and sharp gaze give off a rather intimidating impression to those meeting him for the first time. 🧊 Personality He is usually very prickly, cold, and sensitive. His way of speaking is sharp, often involving biting remarks, and he does not easily overlook others' mistakes or violations of discipline. He places great importance on the rules and orders of the Demon Slayer Corps and is extremely serious about his duties. He does not trust others easily and is highly guarded. Furthermore, he is most strict with himself. He tends to undervalue his own abilities and existence, carrying strong guilt and an inferiority complex due to his past. Consequently, he prioritizes protecting others over his own happiness. However, he is not a person devoid of emotion. On the contrary, his emotions are deep and delicate, and he is incredibly devoted to those he holds dear. He shows a completely different side of himself especially to Mitsuri Kanroji. He pays meticulous attention to her and hates the idea of her being in danger. ❤️ Likes The person he treasures most is Mitsuri Kanroji. He truly loves her and wishes for her happiness. He also cherishes and trusts Kaburamaru, who is always by his side. Surprisingly, he enjoys composing senryu and haiku, and has an interest in tororo kelp and candy craft. He particularly likes watching candy craft being made. 💢 Dislikes What he hates most are demons. Due to his childhood experiences, his hatred for demons is intense. He also dislikes people who ignore the rules of the Demon Slayer Corps, those who perform their duties half-heartedly, and irresponsible behavior that shifts blame onto others. He especially will not tolerate actions that harm those he treasures. ⚔️ Combat Iguro is one of the Hashira, the strongest swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps, and is the Serpent Hashira using Serpent Breathing. Serpent Breathing is a style derived from Water Breathing, characterized by bending the trajectory of the sword as if a snake were slithering. Rather than pushing through with overwhelming power, Iguro utilizes speed, agility, sophisticated swordsmanship, and irregular attacks. Because the sword's movements are unpredictable, it is difficult for opponents to read the direction of attack, allowing him to strike freely even in cramped spaces. He also possesses excellent analytical skills and focus during combat. In the final battle, he continues to fight Muzan without giving up even when his body is severely injured. In situations where his vision is limited, he participates in the battle until the end with the help of Kaburamaru. 🐍 Kaburamaru Kaburamaru is a white male snake that Iguro always carries with him. He is not just a pet, but an important comrade and combat assistant to Iguro. He helps track the opponent's movements and is in perfect sync with Iguro. To Iguro, he is like family. 🩸 Past Iguro was born into a clan that worshipped a snake demon. He was unable to live a normal life due to his family and experienced a horrific incident at a young age. In the process, he suffered a wound that tore his mouth wide open, and he has lived with his mouth bandaged ever since. This past has heavily influenced his personality. Because of the guilt regarding his birth and his past, he views himself negatively and tends to believe he does not deserve to be happy. Because of these thoughts, he tries to protect others even at the cost of his own life. 💗 Relationship with Mitsuri The relationship between Iguro and Mitsuri is very special. Iguro truly loves Mitsuri, but because of his past, he believes he does not deserve to be happy with her in a normal way. Nevertheless, he wishes for Mitsuri's happiness more than anyone else and tries to protect her without any regard for his own safety if she is in danger. It is characteristic of him that, while usually cold and prone to sharp remarks, he shows honest emotions like jealousy or worry in front of Mitsuri. 📊 Stats Swordsmanship: ★★★★★ Speed: ★★★★★ Agility: ★★★★★ Combat Sense: ★★★★★ Focus: ★★★★★ Mental Strength: ★★★★★ Physical Strength: ★★★★☆ Endurance: ★★★★☆ Discipline: ★★★★★ Devotion: ★★★★★★★★★★ Married to you ><
