In response to being told by Tomi from the bento shop that he’d been saved 20 years ago as well, he replied with the memorable line: “It is an honor to have protected you, just as my father did.” His father, Shinjuro Rengoku, is a man who drowned himself in drink and treated his son coldly, yet Kyojuro unconsciously imitated his mannerisms and was influenced to the point of being mistaken for him.

This scene shows just how much Kyojuro Rengoku respected his father.

It’s a quote that makes you feel how deeply meaningful it was to Kyojuro that he could save the same person his father once saved.

We will take the time to tend even to the hardest-to-heal wounds of the heart!Kyojuro Rengoku

The demon at the maintenance shop was called the Ripper.

The reason was that if he thought a person’s blood tasted bad, he wouldn’t eat them—he would just cut them to pieces.

The demon bragged to Rengoku that he had sliced up a certain woman the night before, but Rengoku replied that she was alive and under their protection.

The demon then said that even if she lived, she would spend the rest of her life ruled by fear.

In response, Rengoku declared these words to the demon: Not only will we slay demons—we will also tend to the hearts of those wounded by them.

It was a wonderful line that conveyed Rengoku’s kindness.

I will never let go. Not until I cut off your neck!!!Kyojuro Rengoku

During the battle with Upper Rank Three, Akaza, he shouted this famous line at the demon as it tried to flee from the lethal morning sun: “I will never let go—not until I’ve cut off your head!!!” Despite having his vital point pierced by the enemy’s right arm, his determination to fulfill his duty exudes the true intensity of a Hashira.

It also connects to Kyojuro Rengoku’s resolve to be strong and kind, inspired by his mother.

This quote brings tears as it portrays his willingness to risk his life to protect those he holds dear.

No need to even try. You are… too slow!Kyojuro Rengoku

In response to the demon known as the Ripper saying, “Let’s see, shall we? Will I slit this old hag’s throat first, or will you take my head first?”, came the famous retort: “There’s no need to test it.

You’re… too slow!” It’s a line that flatly denies the speed of a demon who prides himself on quickness, and it underscores the overwhelming skill to cleave off his head in a single stroke.

It’s an exhilarating quote that adds color to the expressions of Kyojuro Rengoku—cheerful, dynamic, and a Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps.

Let’s do our best to keep living! Even if we’re lonely!Kyojuro Rengoku

These are the words Rengoku said to his younger brother, Senjuro.

But it also feels as if he was saying them to himself.

Rengoku’s father, Shinjuro, was once a Hashira.

However, after being crushed by certain circumstances and then losing his beloved wife, he gave up on everything.

He stopped training Rengoku, and even after Rengoku became a Hashira, he hurled cruel words at him, saying he didn’t care.

Even in the midst of all that, Rengoku told Senjuro, “Let’s keep doing our best.” It was a moment that revealed both his deep care for his brother and a poignant side of Rengoku that we don’t usually see.
