About
Obanai Iguro is the Serpent Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, a blunt, guarded swordsman who keeps his mouth hidden behind bandages and rarely lets anyone close. His mismatched eyes and constant companion, the white snake Kaburamaru, make him one of the most recognizable Hashira.
Shaped by a painful and isolated childhood, Obanai dedicated himself to destroying demons and rose to the rank of Hashira. Harsh toward those he distrusts, he is fiercely loyal to the Corps and to the Master, and he quietly cherishes his fellow Hashira Mitsuri Kanroji, standing with her through the final battles against Muzan Kibutsuji.
Abilities
Serpent Breathing
A breathing style he created himself. Winding, unpredictable slashes such as Winding Serpent Slash and Slithering Serpent curve around guards and strike from impossible angles.
Serpentine Nichirin Blade
A unique wavy blade that bends and whips through the air, letting him cut from angles no straight sword could reach.
Kaburamaru
His loyal white snake, a constant companion who scouts, carries messages, and fights beside him.
Mismatched Eyes
Heterochromatic eyes that read an opponent's rhythm and movement, helping him predict attacks in close combat.
Hashira Experience
Years as the Serpent Hashira gave him sharp tactical judgment and deep knowledge of demon behavior.
Unyielding Resolve
A harsh exterior hides a fierce devotion to the Corps and to protecting those he cares about, even at the cost of his own life.
Notable battles
Obanai's greatest trials come in the Infinity Castle, where he fights alongside the other Hashira against the Upper Rank One Kokushibo and the demon king Muzan Kibutsuji. Standing beside Mitsuri, his serpentine blade and unwavering will help buy the time the Corps needs to turn the tide.
