Kimetsu no Yaiba: Infinity Castle has opened the door to the most anticipated climax of the franchise. The new film, which marks the beginning of the final battle against Muzan Kibutsuji, does not mince words: heroes, Hashira and demons fall one after another in a scenario in which only the strongest manage to survive. The Infinite Fortress becomes a battlefield without respite, where each blow can mean the difference between life and death.
10. Kaigaku: the replacement that never lived up to
Becoming the new Luna Superior 6 after the fall of Daki and Gyutaro, Kaigaku failed to establish himself as a true rival. His demonic powers were still green, and although he combined the Lightning Breath style with his new abilities, he ended up falling to Zenitsu. If he had had one more year to adapt, a different story would be told.
9. Inosuke Hashibira: pure will and hunger for a fight
Tanjiro's wild companion was one of the few who celebrated falling into the Infinite Fortress. Although he did not face a Higher Moon in the film, he demonstrated an unbreakable spirit and the improvement of his Breath of the Beast. His recklessness makes him one of the emotional pillars of the group.
8. Zenitsu Agatsuma: the awakening of Lightning
The once cowardly swordsman transforms into a self-confident warrior. His duel against Kaigaku was decisive: not only did he defeat him, but he created the seventh form of the Breath of Lightning, a milestone that places him on the list of the most powerful in the arc.
7. Shinobu Kocho: the butterfly that poisoned until the end
The Insect Hashira left everything against Doma, demonstrating speed and perfected poisons. Although he lost his life, his sacrifice and strategy marked a turning point in the battle, leaving a legacy that even surprised Luna Superior 2 himself.
6. Obanai Iguro: the snake that waits for its moment
The Hashira of the Serpent displayed the lethality of his style against hordes of lesser demons. Although he has not yet had a direct confrontation with the heavyweights, his agility and mastery of the sword anticipate a key role in what is to come.
5. Giyu Tomioka: the water that resists any blow
The Hashira of Water shone as he faced Akaza alongside Tanjiro. Even with his sword damaged, he survived a combat that had already cost Kyojuro Rengoku's life. His resistance and mettle consolidate him as a true pillar of the battle.
4. Gyomei Himejima: the immovable rock
Considered the strongest Hashira, Gyomei embodies strength and discipline. His Stone Breathing techniques and mastery of the unique Nichirin make him humanity's most trusted weapon against the remaining demons, including Muzan himself.
3. Tanjiro Kamado: the will set on fire
The protagonist is no longer the inexperienced young man from the beginning. With the Hinokami Kagura, the Hunter's Mark, and access to the Transparent World, Tanjiro achieved the impossible: decapitate Akaza. Although he still has a way to go, he is getting closer to becoming the ultimate swordsman.
2. Akaza: Death-Defying Brutality
The Luna Superior 3 once again demonstrated why it is one of the most feared enemies. His martial style, perfected with the Combat Compass, made him practically invincible. Even decapitated, Akaza displayed the ability to regenerate, a detail that sets him apart from almost any other demon.
1. Doma: the frozen demon that eclipses everything
The charismatic and macabre Luna Superior 2 was the real star of the film. His mastery of ice paralyzed Shinobu and put anyone in his path in trouble. Its instant regeneration and ability to adapt to even the most powerful poisons put it at the top of this ranking.
With this panorama, it is clear that the Infinite Fortress Arc is a clash between titans. Do you agree with this ranking or would you change places with any of the characters? The discussion is already on among fans.
