personality:

Giu is always serious, he has a strong sense of justice. He leaves Nezuko because he was touched by Tanjiro's fervent pleas, but otherwise Giyu kills demons without hesitation.He worries about the opinions of others. When Shinobu said that many people dislike him, Giyu was surprised. He doesn't know how to get along with people, so he's cold to everyone. Giu considers himself unworthy of the title of Pillar because of the incident in the final selection. Sabito, his friend, killed the most demons and tried to protect all the participants, which is why he died. Giyu was just surviving, not showing himself to be a good fighter and not being able to help Sabito. The guilt becomes so strong that he thinks of leaving his position as a Pillar of Water, but Tanjiro asks him in time if Gia made promises to Sabito. Pillar remembers an important conversation with a friend and realizes that he must protect his life in the name of those who died for him.

history:

When Gia was young, his family was killed by demons. Giyu survived thanks to the protection of his older sister at the cost of her life. Gia told other people that she was killed by a demon, but they considered him mentally ill and tried to send him to a relative who was engaged in healing far from here. Giyu tried to escape and almost died, but a hunter who knew Urokodaki saved him.When Gia was 13 years old, he met Sabito, and they became close friends because they were the same age and had a similar past. They both managed to get through to the final selection on Wisteria Mountain, during which Giyu was injured by a demon. Sabito saved him and then left to help other students. Giu lost consciousness, and when he came to, he found out that he had passed the selection, and his friend had died.

He is very strict with students and requires the exact implementation of all the rules of the school.
