A collection of Muichiro Tokito’s famous quotes: profound words from the Mist Hashira that leave a lasting mark on the heart.

If you’re going to die, do something useful first!

These words are spoken to steel oneself: if death is near, then at least die after being of some use to those around you.

From here, we see the figure straining every last ounce of strength so their comrades can advance, even a little, and the gradual approach of death.

Because they act not to save themselves, but to help their companions, their resolve feels all the stronger.

It also conveys a stance of doing only what one can do with everything they have, staying true to oneself.

No matter how amazing an attack is, it’s meaningless if it doesn’t hit.

#DemonSlayer#Recommended ScenesGyokko and MuichiroNo matter how amazing an attack is, it’s meaningless if it doesn’t hit, right?

♬ 파랗게 – WOODZ

These are the words Muichiro delivered, almost as if mocking Gyokko, who had revealed his true form and launched an attack.

It’s a line that dismisses Gyokko’s claims about the power of his own strikes, and the fact that it’s spoken with a smile in the midst of battle adds a touch of cruelty.

It also serves to flaunt Muichiro’s strength, implying that none of the attacks will land on him.

As a line delivered at a turning point in the fight, it raises expectations for what’s to come.

I don’t want you to be killed by demons. If possible, I want you to live a long life. I truly mean that.

This line is from the Hashira Training Arc of the anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and is something Muichiro Tokito says to Demon Slayer Corps members at the training grounds.

Tokito’s attitude toward the members is strict, and to them he was someone to be feared.

However, in this scene one of the members discovers that while Tokito is training them, he is also rigorously training himself behind the scenes.

The member declares that they’ll push themselves harder, and upon hearing this, Tokito opens up about his true feelings.

He’s strict so that none of the Corps members will die… In this single scene, Tokito and the members truly connect.

I’ll torture you to death. I’ll show you hell.

For Muichiro, who lost both his parents at the age of ten and even his memories, Kagaya Ubuyashiki—the Master—was truly a second father.

To the boy who could open his heart to no one, the Master stayed close in quiet companionship, guided him, and affirmed his very existence.

When that irreplaceable presence was taken from him, what took root in Muichiro’s heart was a profound sorrow and a fury like a raging blaze.

The crystallization of those emotions burst forth in the words: “I’ll toy with you and kill you.

I’ll show you hell.” Beneath the cruelty of that line lies the grief of losing someone precious, and the resolve to keep fighting nonetheless.

It is a soul-stirring quote that reveals the true strength and kindness of Muichiro Tokito, the Mist Hashira.

Thank you for making a sword for me, Mr. Tetsutetsu.

Demon Slayer: Swordsmith Village Arc, Episode 8 – Muichiro Tokito ❣️#DemonSlayerTranslationRecommended Anime#animeedit

I imagine many people were moved by this line.

Back in the Swordsmith Village, Tokito had looked down on the swordsmiths, treating them as people who can’t fight and are only good for making weapons.

But when he was in danger, the one who saved him was that very swordsmith boy.

After recalling his past memories and regaining himself, Tokito realizes he isn’t fighting alone.

He then thanks Haganezuka for forging his sword.

It was also heartwarming that Tokito, who hadn’t shown the slightest interest in Haganezuka until then, clearly spoke his name.

No, I can do it. I’m Muichiro Tokito, the Mist Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, recognized by the Master.

Until now, Muichiro has often been shown handling things with a cool-headedness that could even seem cold.

However, here he decides to act to help someone at the request of a swordsmith’s child.

In that moment, a worry crosses his mind: “If I do this, I might not be able to protect the entire village when it really matters.” That’s when he says this line.

It’s as if he’s telling himself it will be fine because he’s someone the Master trusts.

This statement, packed with absolute faith in the Master and a drive to spur himself on, is a cool, iconic quote.

You mustn’t interrupt the master’s talk.

Hyururirapappa (Last Chorus Ver.) – tuki.

These lines appear during the Hashira meeting convened after the battle on Mount Natagumo.

In the meeting, Tanjiro’s fate is discussed as a Demon Slayer who is traveling with Nezuko, who has become a demon.

In the midst of it, Nezuko is stabbed three times by Sanemi Shinazugawa.

When the discussion finally wraps up and the Master tries to conclude the meeting, Tanjiro interrupts him, causing a commotion as he insists on getting back at Sanemi with a headbutt.

At that moment, Muichiro flicks a small stone at Tanjiro and says this line.

Although Muichiro usually shows little emotion, this scene is striking not only because it reveals the deep respect he holds for the Master, but also because it shows the great anger he feels toward anyone who behaves rudely to him.
