Personality

Zenitsu is cowardly, weak-willed, and anxious, often claiming that he doesn't have long vĩ đại live due vĩ đại the dangerous job of being a Demon Slayer. He has rather low self-esteem despite his talent and strength, even considering himself useless, evident when he couldn't believe he had slain a demon and tricked himself into instead believing that it was Shoichi, even though the latter was a young child who didn't possess any khuông of skill.^[5] Zenitsu is in a constant state of fear and he frequently tries vĩ đại run rẩy away at the sight of danger, claiming he wants vĩ đại live a modest, normal life, instead of that of a Demon Slayer. Due vĩ đại this, Zenitsu screams and shouts a lot, much vĩ đại the annoyance of the people around him. He is also shown vĩ đại be pessimistic at times, especially during Hashira Training where he lashed out at Tanjiro and Inosuke for viewing the training positively.

In spite of his weaknesses, Zenitsu desires vĩ đại live up vĩ đại the expectations others have phối for him and will try his hardest when he needs vĩ đại. He holds great respect and admiration towards his comrades and his deceased teacher, Jigoro Kuwajima, and his inner focus and drive in avenging him help vĩ đại wash away his cowardice and second thoughts when he is in a pinch. Zenitsu also hates himself for how cowardly and incompetent he is, genuinely striving vĩ đại better himself.

He tends vĩ đại hit on girls who he thinks are xinh đẹp and asks them vĩ đại marry him, much vĩ đại their annoyance.^[6] This womanizing nature is shown vĩ đại override his docile and quiet personality, particularly when he believes his comrades are "flirting" with xinh đẹp girls; he would snap and goes in long hysterical rants and complaints. Zenitsu is shown vĩ đại have a strong attraction vĩ đại Nezuko, openly expressing his affection for her and always rushing vĩ đại protect her as if on instinct. During these times, he is also shown vĩ đại become physically aggressive, lashing out at people in frustration.^[7] Though, despite his shallow behaviour in this regard, Zenitsu does show vĩ đại respect women, telling Daki vĩ đại let go of a girl that Daki nearly tore the ear off of, and later demanded her vĩ đại apologize.

As the only one boy in the trio vĩ đại have grown up in the đô thị, Zenitsu shows more knowledge about how the đô thị works and is constantly embarrassed by his partners' naivety.

Before the raid on the Infinity Castle, Zenitsu gives off a different, more serious vibe as if he is focused on something important. This development occurred after receiving a letter from Chuntaro, which revealed his master's death and Kaigaku's role behind it.^[8] During his fight against Kaigaku, Zenitsu is stern and becomes enraged, causing him vĩ đại angrily yell at him for disrespecting their cultivator.^[9] His sudden change surprises his ex-senior, as Zenitsu shows a more mature persona compared vĩ đại his usual cowardice.

Abilities

Overall Abilities

From the beginning, Zenitsu comes off as a talented and skilled Demon Slayer though he denies this. His strength awakens when he is asleep as his nervous demeanour is what normally keeps him from accessing his abilities, making him more sagacious, calm and precise in combat. This allowed him vĩ đại instantly decapitate the Tongue Demon and defeat Son of the Spider Family by himself. He was later able vĩ đại defend 3 entire train carts being under attack by Enmu, Lower Rank One, along with Nezuko. A few months after that, he was able vĩ đại go toe-to-toe with an awakened Daki with the assistance of Inosuke, and later managed vĩ đại blitz her with Thunderclap and Flash: Godspeed. As further credence vĩ đại his strength, Zenitsu was able vĩ đại advance vĩ đại the highest point of the Hashira Training.

However, the greatest extent of his powers manifests when Zenitsu fights while awake, as he managed vĩ đại outmatch the new Upper Rank Six, Kaigaku, in tốc độ by himself and was later blitzed and decapitated him before he could react, although he sustained several severe injuries. Moreover, Zenitsu's initial reluctance vĩ đại kill Kaigaku, someone he once cared about and looked up vĩ đại, was the only thing that gave the Upper Rank the initial advantage, hinting that he could have simply killed him from the beginning if he sánh desired. Later on, he could keep up with and battle the Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, albeit while severely weakened by the Anti-Kibutsuji Drug. Nonetheless, Zenitsu's strength more phàn nàn likely matched that of the Hashira by the over of the series.

Indomitable Will: In spite of his initial cowardice and reluctance vĩ đại fight, Zenitsu nonetheless possesses indomitable willpower and spirit. This was displayed when he absolutely refused vĩ đại let Inosuke kill the demon inside Tanjiro's box, and protected it vĩ đại the over despite getting relentlessly beat up by Inosuke. While he was asleep against the battle against Daki, Zenitsu had the willpower vĩ đại continue fighting despite sustaining numerous slash wounds all over his toàn thân and having his feet broken.^[10] Through sheer will and anger, Zenitsu was able vĩ đại overcome his cowardice and stay awake in battle against demons, shown during his bout with Kaigaku and Muzan, especially in the fight with the latter in which he refused vĩ đại give up and persisted despite being enervated and injured.

Tactical Intellect: Even when fighting unconscious, Zenitsu has displayed incredible judgement and tactical intellect. When fighting consciously, this ability is fully released. This able was best exhibited during his battle against Upper Rank Six, Daki. When Inosuke made an erroneous deduction of her weaknesses, Zenitsu correctly explicated that all they need vĩ đại vì thế is keep both demons' head disconnected vĩ đại kill them. After his bout with Kaigaku commenced, he was able vĩ đại clearly think and process his techniques and demonic abilities.

Unconscious Combat: Zenitsu has the ability vĩ đại fight when he sleeps, which allows him vĩ đại awaken his true strength. While awake, his nerves and fear cause him vĩ đại freeze up sánh he cannot move. When his life is in danger, his nerves and fear grow sánh strong that he passes out. But while asleep, his nerves are no longer holding him back, allowing him vĩ đại fight and move with great judgement, precision and skill. His hearing also places a big part in allowing Zenitsu vĩ đại fight unconsciously, as it enables him vĩ đại discern his surroundings and the location of his enemies and their attacks. This also allows him vĩ đại fight even after he falls victim vĩ đại Enmu's spell that makes anyone go into deep sleep.

Physical Abilities

He was also able vĩ đại damage the toàn thân of Muzan, whose toàn thân has the highest durability out of all the demons, further testifying his incredible physical strength.

Immense Speed & Reflexes: Zenitsu is extremely fast, being able vĩ đại easily move faster phàn nàn even the eye can see. Even during the beginning of his career as a Demon Slayer, it is plainly obvious that his tốc độ far outclassed that of lesser demons such as the Tongue Demon and Son of the Spider Family. During both skirmishes, neither demon was able vĩ đại hit Zenitsu when he was actively engaged with the battle and both were completely unable vĩ đại react vĩ đại the tốc độ of his attacks. During the battle against Enmu, he was able vĩ đại save Nezuko from Lower Rank One's flesh appendages and could slice through many of them before Enmu could react.

As he progresses, his tốc độ has improved vĩ đại the point that his movements couldn't be perceived by Upper Rank demons, lượt thích Daki and Kaigaku, the former's reflexes having been amplified multiple times during the fight and latter being a user of the same Breathing Style as Zenitsu. Moreover, Zenitsu could move faster phàn nàn Kaigaku's lightning-based Blood Demon Art and cut his neck before the attack reached him. Most impressively, Zenitsu could land multiple hits on the imperceptibly fast Demon King, Muzan Kibutsuji, with his techniques, albeit he was severely weakened then.

Immense Stamina & Endurance: Zenitsu has incredible stamina and endurance. He has been shown vĩ đại continue fighting even after being affected by lethal poison from the Son Spider Demon that was gradually weakening him and turning him into a spider. He was also able vĩ đại defend 3 train cars with Nezuko for an extended period of time without tiring out. Later, Zenitsu, along with Inosuke, engaged in combat with Upper Rank Six, Daki, for an extended long period of time. Even after receiving numerous wounds from the Upper Rank and later getting trapped under rubble, Zenitsu had enough stamina left vĩ đại unleash his Thunderclap and Flash: Godspeed technique twice; once vĩ đại get out of the rubble and the second time vĩ đại blitz Daki.

He was able vĩ đại continue fighting with Kaigaku even after being on the receiving over of multiple Blood Demon Art-enhanced Thunder Breathing techniques that burned his skin and eventually summon enough power vĩ đại use his ultimate technique and blitz him. Zenitsu was even able vĩ đại exert himself for around half an hour during the fight against Muzan, even being able vĩ đại surpass his limit of only being able vĩ đại use his Thunderclap and Flash: Godspeed technique twice a day before his legs gave out.

Supernatural Abilities

Zenitsu's sword wielding skill evolved vĩ đại the point that he could fight against Upper Rank demons of the Twelve Kizuki and later matched a severely weakened Muzan, implying that his swordsmanship skill has most likely improved vĩ đại the point that it matched that of the Hashira, the highest-ranked and most powerful swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps.

Breathing Style

Thunder Breathing (雷 (かみなり) の呼 (こ) 吸 (きゅう) Kaminari no kokyū^?): A Breathing Style Zenitsu learned from a cultivator and his teacher, Jigoro Kuwajima, but failed vĩ đại master all the forms in the swordsmanship style but could only be able vĩ đại use the first of the six forms in it, known as Thunderclap and Flash. However, Zenitsu has become incredibly proficient in fighting and winning using the first khuông alone, even creating several variations and modifications vĩ đại it and being able vĩ đại successfully perform the technique even while unconscious.
