Finished with its third season, Demon Slayer Season 4 has now been confirmed for broadcast by Ufotable Studio. One of them who will be present in the fourth season of Demon Slayer is the Wind Hashira Sanemi Shinazugawa. Sanemi is one of the supporting characters for the main character Tanjiro Kamado who was first introduced in episode 22 of the anime when Tanjiro and Nezuko were brought to face Oyakata-sama.

Before actually meeting Sanemi in Demon Slayer Season 4 later, let's get to know more through some interesting facts about Sanemi Shinazugawa, a character who is known to be fierce.

Facts About Sanemi Shinazugawa in Demon Slayer

1. A Sagittarius Boy

Based on his character profile, Sanemi is described as a 21 years old male who was born on November 29th. He has a body with a weight of 75 kg and a height of 179 cm. If based on his date of birth, it means that Sanemi is a Sagittarius male based on the Chinese horoscope. Apart from that, this character is also distinctive with the scars on his face that are very clearly visible. This wound he got before he joined the Demon Slayer Corps when he was facing demons.

2. Harsh and Mean Person

In the previous Demon Slayer episodes, you might have seen how Sanemi always looked angry and violent. It's not just his appearance that has a face full of wounds that makes him look scary. He is also known as someone who is a harsh, cold-blooded, mean, and stubborn person. He also seems unable to communicate well even though the other person is his comrade.

3. The Wind Breathing Technique User

Sanemi Shinazugawa is a pillar in the Demon Slayer world who mastered the wind breathing technique. Sanemi is known as a Hashira who has extraordinary abilities, even known as the best wind-breathing user of his generation. Sanemi masters approximately nine wind-breathing techniques starting from the first form to the ninth form which he uses to fight demons.

4. Older Brother of Genya Shinazugawa

Just from his last name, you would have guessed that he is Genya's brother. Before they became the demon exterminators they are today, they used to live with their abusive father, loving mother, and their five other siblings. But when his father died, Sanemi started helping his mother to work.

5. Has a Bitter Relationship with Genya

Every time they meet, Sanemi and Genya seem like two people who don't know each other, even though they are siblings, this indicates their relationship is not good. Due to their bitter past, it seems to have had an impact on how their relationship is as siblings. Sanemi seems to hate Genya so much that he doesn't want to acknowledge him as his little brother.

This may be because back then when Sanemi, Genya, and their five siblings were at home waiting for their mother who never came home, their house was suddenly attacked by a demon. Sanemi, who was shocked when he saw that the demon that attacked them was his own mother, swiftly tried to protect his younger siblings by counterattacking the demon. Then, when his possessed mother was about to attack Genya, Sanemi swiftly protected his siblings and killed his own mother even though he had to be seriously injured.

Genya, who was still small at that time, did not understand and hated Sanemi all his life. It was only when he started to grow up and join the Demon Slayer Corps that he began to understand Sanemi's feelings and tried to meet his older brother by joining the demon slayer corps.

6. Has a Deep Hatred Toward Demons

As you all know, every Demon Slayer Corps has a sad past that caused them to harbor great hatred toward demons. But you can see how Sanemi's hatred for demons is huge and is on a different level. This deep hatred was the result of the great loss he had experienced in the past. About how the devil changed his mother, the fact he had to kill his own mother, to how he had to lose his family all at once.

That's what made Sanemi so aggressive and didn't like Nezuko when she first met her who was brought to Oyakata-sama in front of all the pillars. Sanemi is very determined to kill Nezuko who is a demon and very cold-blooded even near the people he respects the most.

7. Loyal to Oyakata-sama

No matter how hard Sanemi's character is, he will completely change if he is in front of Oyakata-sama or Kagaya Ubuyashiki who is none other than the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps. Throughout the Demon Slayer series, you can see how his tough and rough nature will completely change when in front of Oyakata-sama. This shows how Sanemi has high respect for his boss. Of course, at the beginning of Sanemi and Oyakata-sama's meeting, he didn't act like this but the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps managed to soften Sanemi's heart.

8. He is Colorblind

Not only was the wound on his face that he got from being attacked by his own mother's devil, but Sanemi also has had eye problems since that incident which made him color blind. As a result, he has quite a hard time when he has to travel to carry out his duties at night because his eyesight is quite impaired.

9. The Second Strongest Pillar in Demon Slayer

A little spoiler, it turns out that Sanemi has been named the second strongest pillar after Gyomei Himejima, the stone pillar in the Demon Slayer Corps. This talent can be seen from the start when he saved his younger brother Genya from his mother's attack. At that time, Sanemi managed to kill the demon without using a special nichirin sword or using a breathing technique which at that time he had not mastered.

10. Has the Rare Marechi Blood

For humans, Marechi's blood might be nothing, but among demons, Marechi's blood is a blood type that can be considered rare. So that this blood can provoke the passion of the demons that kiss them and make them lose focus, that's why when they met Nezuko, Sanemi tried to provoke her by bleeding from his arm.

If you remember Tanjiro's battle in the first season that saved three children in a mansion, one of the children named Kiyoshi has Marechi blood. That's what made them targeted by demons and kidnapped to Tsuzumi Mansion by the 6th Lower Moon Demon: Kyogai.

11. A Close Friend of Masachika Kumeno

Although Sanemi is known as someone who is difficult to communicate and it seems almost impossible for him to have close friends, it turns out that Sanemi has close friends with Masachika Kumeno, another demon slayer who fights alongside him. Masachika was once a demon slayer, and he was also the one who brought Sanemi together with a teacher who taught breathing techniques. So close, Masachika also considered Sanemi as his brother. Having to feel a loss once again, Masachika had to leave Sanemi when he died when he defeated the 1st Underworld Demon with Sanemi when they were still Kinoe.

12. Has the Mark of Demon Slayer

If you saw how Muichiro Tokito managed to awaken the demon exterminator mark that appeared when he faced the Upper Moon Demon Gyokko, this also happened with Sanemi. This demon slayer mark appeared during his fight against Kokushibo. A bit of a spoiler, Sanemi's mark is shaped like a green windmill, and after this mark appears, his physical strength and tolerance for pain has increased. We're more curious about Sanemi that will appear in the next season of Demon Slayer. How strong will Sanemi be in the final fight against Muzan and the other upper moon demons? Let's all wait for further news regarding the fourth season of Demon Slayer in Dunia Games.
