Demon Slayer Manga Chapter 40

A memory from Tanjiro’s childhood comes rushing back at the moment he needs it most. He remembers his father performing the Hinokami Kagura in the freezing cold and recalls the breathing technique that allowed him to continue without tiring. That forgotten memory gives Tanjiro a new way to fight when his Water Breathing is no longer enough.

In Demon Slayer Manga Chapter 40, Tanjiro finally uses the Hinokami Kagura against Rui. At the same time, Nezuko awakens a power of her own and uses her Blood Demon Art to burn through Rui’s threads. Their abilities come together at the perfect moment, turning the battle into one of the most important moments of Tanjiro’s journey.
