Of course

Appearance

Kokushibo (黒こく死し牟ぼう, Kokushibō?) is a major supporting antagonist of the Kimetsu no Yaiba franchise. He was a Demon who belonged to the Twelve Demonic Moons group, holding the position of Upper Moon One (上じょう弦げんの壱いち, Jōgen no Ichi?)[5] and Muzan Kibutsuji's right-hand man. Nearly five centuries ago, during the Sengoku Period, Kokushibo was once a human by the name of Michikatsu Tsugikuni (継つぎ国くに厳みち勝かつ, Tsugikuni Michikatsu?), a former Demon Slayer and part of the Demon Extermination Corps. He was the older twin brother of Yoriichi Tsukiguni, the strongest Demon Slayer to ever exist and the first confirmed user of Sun's Breath.[2] Kokushibo was a Demon who retained his human features despite having devoured countless people over the course of 400 years. He maintained a number of rather unusual characteristics: he was a man of tall stature, pale skin tone, and an athletic, muscular build; Her hair was long and black with burgundy edges[6], held in a long ponytail that reached almost to the height of her lower back[5]. On his face, he had a series of flame-like markings covering the left side of his head and the right side of his neck; these markings were, in his time as a human, his Hunter's Mark. Kokushibo's most emblematic feature and, in turn, one of his most sinister identifying marks were his three pairs of eyebrow-less eyes[5] which had a yellowish tint in their iris and a red sclera divided into segments[6]. In the center eyes, his numbering as the Upper Moon One is located identified with the kanji for First Crescent (壱上弦,, Ichi Jōgen?) indicating his dominant position within the Upper Moons. As for his clothing, he wore a kimono with patterns of violet and black tones with a white haneri (undergarment for a Kimono), a black hakama

personality

Kokushibo was a reserved being shrouded in mystery. At the Upper Moons meeting, he was shown to be punctual, respectful of the rules[5] and placed a high value on the hierarchy of the Twelve Demonic Moons[7]. He was also humble, as he did not hesitate to admit failure or complain about any difficulties, rather than acknowledge the strength of his opponent. He has shown a strong sense of loyalty towards Muzan Kibutsuji, and most of his actions were done with the sole purpose of fulfilling Muzan's goals[2]. Despite exhibiting an outward reserve of character and humility, he was also quite cold: his words could be harsh, especially when reprimanding people. His threats are nothing short of cruel and overwhelmingly serious, and he demands absolute obedience. He has a complex relationship with his human past. He shows some warmth towards his descendant, Muichiro Tokito, praising his skills and resolve[2], and is bent on turning Muichiro into a demon to save his life. At the same time, he refers to Muichiro and his abilities as the natural result of his "cells" being passed down[8]. As a result, it is unclear whether he has any true attachment or if it is the result of disproportionate narcissistic pride. Watching the two demon-slaying brothers, Sanemi Shinazugawa and Genya Shinazugawa, makes him nostalgic[8]. Fighting Sanemi made him remember the duel against an ancient Wind Pillar to improve his skills.[10] It is revealed that during his past as a human, he harbored a huge grudge of spite and envy towards his younger twin brother, Yoriichi Tsukiguni, due to the natural talent and abilities he had since birth. These feelings of jealousy and contempt eventually intensified even further upon seeing his brother grow older and having survived said age despite awakening his Demon Slayer Mark that would supposedly doom him to death at the age of 25.

history

It is revealed that as a human, Kokushibo harbored an immense feeling of envy towards his younger twin brother for his natural talent and incredible abilities. These feelings of jealousy and contempt only grew stronger as he watched his brother become an unrivaled warrior of unmatched caliber even amongst the Demon Extermination Corps, with none of the Pillars coming close to matching his level of strength. This envy reaches its peak when he discovers that Yoriichi is still alive and old, despite the fact that the Mark's curse was supposed to kill him before he turned 25. However, despite his envy and hatred towards his brother, Kokushibo still cares for his younger brother, which is evidenced when, after cutting up his corpse, he realizes that Yoriichi still kept the hand-carved flute made by him, which makes Kokushibo break down in tears over his brother's death when he understands that his brother still loved him despite everything, and so for the following centuries, he chose to keep the flute he made for his brother as a souvenir.

Infinite Castle

Nakime, with her Demonic Blood Technique, is able to control the entire Infinite Dimensional Fortress. This includes moving rooms, walls, and creating entrances and exits anywhere. It was destroyed after the attack carried out by the Demon Extermination Corps.

Kokushibo is sitting meditating with one part of his haori facing down showing one side of his body, some birds approach him and one lands on his head while he continues meditating. Demons can't be in the sun or else they disintegrate and die so Kokushibo would be sitting at dusk in a place where there aren't many trees and where there's a bit of fog, his katana would be on the grass in front of him.
