3. Has a Ridiculously Strong Forehead

4. He Activated His Demon Slayer Mark During His Fight Against Gyutaro

5. Has Access to Two Breathing Techniques

Tanjiro is a master in using two Breathing Techniques. The first technique is the Water Breathing Technique he learned from Sakonji, the previous Water Hashira.

Since he honed the Water Breathing Technique throughout his training, Tanjiro eventually became so proficient with the technique, which allowed him to fight the Lower Rank Demons, Rui and Enmu.
