{{Nihongo|'''Tanjiro Kamado'''|竈門 炭治郎|Kamado Tanjirō|lead=yes}} is a fictional character and the protagonist of [[Koyoharu Gotouge]]'s [[manga]] ''[[Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba]]''. Tanjiro goes on a quest to restore the humanity of his sister, [[Nezuko Kamado|Nezuko]], who was turned into a demon after his family was killed by [[Muzan Kibutsuji]] following an attack that resulted in the death of his other relatives. After an encounter with [[List of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba characters#Hashira|Giyu Tomioka]], a [[demon hunter|demon slayer]], Tanjiro is recruited by Giyu to also become a demon slayer to help his sister turn human again and avenge his family. Besides [[Ufotable]]'s ''[[Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (TV series)|Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba]]'' [[anime]] adaptation, Tanjiro has also appeared in a [[light novel]] that acts as a prequel to the manga.
Gotouge created Tanjiro following a suggestion from their editor of having a bright main character who would stand out in his dark narrative. His design was influenced by [[Himura Kenshin]] from [[Nobuhiro Watsuki]]'s manga ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' when deciding how androgynous the character should look. The character is primarily voiced by [[Natsuki Hanae]] in Japanese and [[Zach Aguilar]] in English.
The character has been well received by manga and anime critics due to his caring nature and relationship with his sister while also becoming a strong fighter. This has led to the character winning multiple awards with Hanae's performance as him also receiving one. Aguilar's performance was also well-received.
==Creation and design==
[[File:NezukoTanjiroearlysketch.jpg|thumb|left|Early sketches of Nezuko and Tanjiro]]
Tanjiro Kamado originates from [[Koyoharu Gotouge]]'s ideas involving a one-shot with Japanese motifs. Tatsuhiko Katayama, their editor, was worried about the one-shot crusade being too dark for the young demographic and asked Gotouge if they could write another type of the main character who would be "brighter".<ref name="creation">{{cite web|url=https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/web_pages/234/|title=The birth of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba"|publisher=[[Shueisha]]|website=[[Manga Plus]]|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Gotouge has cited issues in the making of the character due to the contrast he has with the dark narrative. For the release of the manga's seventh chapter, Gotouge drew a cover of Tanjiro wielding his sword while smiling. However, due to the contrasting aesthetics the manga had, they discarded the drawing and instead drew a similar design with Tanjiro having a serious expression.<ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|volume=2|publisher=[[Viz Media]]|isbn=978-1-9747-0053-0|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref>
In the initial design, Tanjiro did not have a scar or wear earrings, but in the end, they felt these features accentuated the character. In the making of the cast, Tanjiro had four supporting characters who would balance each other due to their different skills. The editor commented about Tanjiro, "[He] is a type of male main character that you don't see much. He's so kind. He has Nezuko, so he's coming from this position where he can't just say all demons are absolute evil. He's in the gray zone." Tanjiro's design was also influenced by Gotouge's editor: he suggested giving Tanjiro a facial scar in his forehead inspired by [[Himura Kenshin]] from [[Nobuhiro Watsuki]]'s manga ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' while also giving him earrings to balance how androgynous he would look.<ref name="creation"/>
Yuma Takahashi, the producer behind the adaptation of the manga said he enjoyed Tanjiro's role in the manga, making him engaged in reading the series. For how Tanjiro's Water Breathing was portrayed, [[Ufotable]] received inspiration from [[Katsushika Hokusai]]'s [[ukiyo-e]] style. The first fight scene between Tanjiro and Giyu was also carefully animated to give viewers an appealing choreography.<ref>{{cite web|last=Nicole|first=Mejias|url=https://www.crunchyroll.com/es-es/anime-feature/2019/08/16/yuma-takahashi-talks-about-producing-one-of-animes-biggest-hits?referrer=community_cr_twitter_news|title=Yuma Takahashi Talks About Producing One of Anime's Biggest Hits!|publisher=[[Crunchyroll]]|date=August 16, 2019|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Tanjiro's water-based techniques were created using a mix between hand-drawn animation and CGI, while his battle against Rui was one of the most worked scenes in the making. Takahashi also said that Tanjiro is his most relatable character from the series due to how his constant hard work inspires him.<ref>{{cite web|last=Chapman|first=Jacob|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2019-08-28/interview-demon-slayer-producer-yuma-takahashi/.149177|title=Interview: Demon Slayer producer Yuma Takahashi|publisher=[[Anime News Network]]|date= August 28, 2019|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> The anime uses an insert theme song titled "[[Kamado Tanjiro no Uta]]," expressing his determination to stand up from despair and protect his younger sister.<ref name="kimetsu">{{cite web|url=https://realsound.jp/2020/11/post-648562_2.html|title="Kamado Tanjiro no Uta" Review|language=ja|website=Real Sound|last=Toriko|first=Tomato|date=November 4, 2020|accessdate=November 8, 2021}}</ref>
[[File: Naval_ensign_of_the_Empire_of_Japan.svg|thumb|Tanjiro's [[Rising Sun Flag]]-like earrings were altered in China to avoid offending the audience.]]
When the anime series premiered in China, Tanjiro's design was slightly altered. Due to his [[hanafuda]] earrings having [[Rising Sun Flag|Rising Sun]]-style elements, it was feared it would offend the Mainland leading to brief retouches to them.<ref>{{cite web|last=Ashcraft|first=Brian|url=https://kotaku.com/anime-demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-changed-slightly-a-1833879190|title=Anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Changed Slightly In China As Not To Offend|date=8 April 2019|publisher=[[Kotaku]]|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref>
===Voice actors===
Tanjiro has been voiced by [[Natsuki Hanae]] in Japanese. Hanae noted that multiple responses to his career involved him portraying sad characters. However, in Tanjiro's case, he said Tanjiro is on the easy side because he says what he thinks, and is not the type that thinks one way and other things. Nezuko's actress, [[Akari Kitō]], said Hanae is like a big brother to her at the studio, supportive and if there are parts she has difficulty recording, Hanae would stay and wait till she finishes even though his part has finished. Hanae said he also thinks of Kitō as a younger sister. He also says it is easier for him to do his best when he is around people with whom he is friendly.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://natalie.mu/comic/pp/kimetsu|title=「鬼滅の刃」とは？|publisher=Natalie|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Tanjiro's fighting style was liked by Hanae who reported he often made Tanjiro's shouts when playing video games. He appreciated the feedback he was given by the viewers of the anime.<ref>{{cite web|last=Morrissey|first=Kim|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-10-19/watch-demon-slayer-natsuki-hanae-yell-out-tanjiro-moves-while-playing-monster-hunter-world-iceborne/.152298|title=Watch Demon Slayer's Natsuki Hanae Yell Out Tanjiro's Moves While Playing Monster Hunter World: Iceborne|website=[[Anime News Network]]|date=October 19, 2019|accessdate=April 16, 2020}}</ref>

==Appearances==
===In ''Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba''===
The protagonist of ''Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba'', Tanjiro Kamado is the oldest son of a late charcoal-seller, Tanjuro. In the first chapter of the manga, his family (his mother and his younger siblings) is massacred by a demon named [[Muzan Kibutsuji]], with only his sister [[Nezuko Kamado]] surviving only to become a demon. After seeing Tanjiro's skills in battle as well as Nezuko's unwillingness to devour her brother, [[Giyu Tomioka]] sends the siblings to [[Sakonji Urokodaki]] on Mt. Sagiri in order to become a demon slayer.<ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0052-3|volume=1|chapter=1|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref> Tanjiro vows to save his sister, and sets the theme from the manga: "Muzan Kibutsuji! No matter where you go, I promise you won't escape me! You can run as far as you want! I'll follow you to the ends of Hell, and my blade will be the last thing you see! I'll never forgive you for what you've done!"
After a couple of years of training his body and learning swordsmanship with ghosts, which he will find out later, Tanjiro learns the {{Nihongo|"Water Breathing"|水の呼吸法|Mizu no Kokyū-hō}} sword-style. After passing a test, Tanjiro becomes a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.<ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0052-3|volume=1|chapter=4|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0052-3|volume=1|chapter=7|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref> During his first days as a Demon Slayer, Tanjiro manages to make contact with Muzan but the demon turns a human into one of his own to distract him. As this happens, Muzan becomes interested by Tanjiro's taunts and [[Hanafuda]] earrings from the Rising Sun, ordering his forces to kill the child.<ref>{{cite book|chapter=14|volume=2|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0053-0}}</ref> The siblings later meet friendly demons named [[Tamayo (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)|Tamayo]] and [[Yushiro (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)|Yushiro]] and assist with their research to find a way to restore Nezuko's humanity. As a result, Tanjiro starts collecting samples of blood from the demons he vanquishes, the stronger the better.<ref>{{cite book|chapter=19|volume=3|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0054-7}}</ref>
Later in his battle with the demon [[Rui (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)|Rui]], Tanjiro remembers Tanjuro's family dance which his father wanted him to pass on his next generation alongside his rising sun earrings. The imitation of Tanjuro's dance results in Tanjiro performing the {{Nihongo|Hinokami [[Kagura]]|ヒノカミ神楽||lit. "Dance of the Sun God"}} technique, which itself is based on the original breath style, the {{Nihongo|Sun Breathing|日の呼吸|Hi no Kokyū}}, merging both to create a more sustainable fighting style. After the Demon Slayer superiors accept him to continue working despite Nezuko's true nature, Tanjiro starts seeking the origins of his Hinokami and whether or not his Tanjuro was related with such group of slayers. His sword's color is black, occasionally turning crimson red and becoming much stronger when combined with Nezuko's Blood Burst, a technique he later learns to perform without her help.
With the Upper Ranks defeated, the Demon Slayers join forces in the final battle against Muzan. Tanjiro is poisoned by the enemy and at the brink of death he has a vision of one of his ancestors and his encounter with Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who developed the original fighting style which was passed along the generations of the Kamado family in the form of the Hinokami Kagura.
Tanjiro reawakens and with the knowledge he obtained during his vision, leads the counterattack against the enemy.
Meanwhile, Nezuko, certain that her brother needs her help, rushes to join his side. The medicine developed to cure her demon condition works, turning Nezuko into a human again. Though he eventually avenges his family during the final battle, losing his arm and eye in the process while being fatally wounded, he recovers after Muzan turns him into the ultimate demon before his death. By losing his consciousness in the transformation to the point of attacking his own friends, Tanjiro as a demon becomes a bigger threat than Muzan himself, given that he is immune to sunlight like his sister, until he manages to return to human form, thanks to his friends' efforts, although his right eye's iris is now a dull pink-gray color and the pupil black rather than its original white.
His left arm which grew back when he became a demon now takes the appearance of that which an older person may have, becoming wrinkled and skeletal, and he loses all feeling in it below the elbow and thus the ability to move it from his forearm down. After the battle, Tanjiro returns home with his sister and friends.

Critical reception to Tanjiro's character has been positive ever since his introduction. ''[[Otaku USA]]'' found Tanjiro an anti-stereotypical take from the ''shōnen'' main characters due to his desire to fight being solely to find a cure to protect Nezuko, calling him a "fascinating breath of fresh air", while highlighting his friendly personality in a dark story.<ref>{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is a breath of fresh air to the shonen genre|url=https://www.otakuusamagazine.com/demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-anime-review/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200217003953/https://otakuusamagazine.com/demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-anime-review/|archive-date=February 17, 2020|access-date=February 16, 2020|website=[[Otaku USA]]}}</ref> ''[[Anime News Network]]'' also liked Tanjiro's design due to how it translates the narrative of his family being poor, while also liking the way the characters lives with them and later only Nezuko.<ref>{{cite web|last=Rebecca|first=Silverman|date=August 1, 2018|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/demon-slayer/kimetsu-no-yaiba/gn-1/.134454|accessdate=February 16, 2020|website=[[Anime News Network]]}}</ref> ''Comic Book Bin'' felt Tanjiro's journey was inspirational due to the pain he goes to save Nezuko, making him likable.<ref>{{cite web|last=Douresseaux|first=Leroy|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Volume 1 manga review|website=Comic Book Bin|url=http://www.comicbookbin.com/demonslayer001.html|date=July 1, 2018|accessdate=April 15, 2020}}</ref> ''Anime Inferno'' said "Tanjiro and Nezuko make a great team and are two enjoyable protagonists, with the series at its best when the two siblings are working together."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.animeinferno.com.au/2021/01/10/review-demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-part-1-eps-1-13-blu-ray/|title=Review: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – Part 1 (Eps 1-13) (Blu-Ray)|website=Anime Inferno|date=January 10, 2021|accessdate=October 6, 2021}}</ref> While noting that the character becomes a warrior in the second manga volume, the writer believed he might experience major pain through his quest.<ref>{{cite web|last=Douresseaux|first=Leroy|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Volume 2 manga review|website=Comic Book Bin|url=http://www.comicbookbin.com/demonslayer002.html|date=September 9, 2018|accessdate=April 15, 2020}}</ref> Nevertheless, regardless of how many battles he takes, ''Comic Book Bin'' enjoyed how Tanjiro retained his caring personality.<ref>{{cite web|last=Douresseaux|first=Leroy|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Volume 3 manga review|website=Comic Book Bin|url=http://www.comicbookbin.com/demonslayer003.html|date=November 5, 2018|accessdate=April 15, 2020}}</ref> ''Anime News Network'' said that while he keeps being well meaning in following arcs, he still shows a more aggressive side when fighting demons, making him multi-faceted.<ref>{{cite web|last=Beckett|first=James|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-mugen-train-arc/episode-3/.178800|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Train Arc Episode 3|website=[[Anime News Network]]|date=October 25, 2021|accessdate=November 10, 2021}}</ref> [[IGN]] noted that Tanjiro stands out due to his caring traits, comparing him to [[Allen Walker]] from [[Katsura Hoshino]]'s ''[[D.Gray-man]]'' series who also exhibits these traits when being faced with the dilemma of hurting an enemy.

{{Nihongo|'''Tanjiro Kamado'''|竈門 炭治郎|Kamado Tanjirō|lead=yes}} is a fictional character and the protagonist of [[Koyoharu Gotouge]]'s [[manga]] ''[[Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba]]''. Tanjiro goes on a quest to restore Skibidi toilet for his sister, [[Nezuko Kamado|Nezuko]], who was turned into a skibidi toilet after his family was killed by [[Muzan Kibutsuji]] following an attack that resulted in the death of his other relatives. After an encounter with [[List of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba characters#Hashira|Giyu Tomioka]], a [[demon hunter|demon slayer]], Tanjiro is recruited by Giyu to also become a demon slayer to help his sister turn human again and avenge his family. Besides [[Ufotable]]'s ''[[Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba (TV series)|Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba]]'' [[anime]] adaptation, Tanjiro has also appeared in a [[light novel]] that acts as a prequel to the manga.
Gotouge created Tanjiro following a suggestion from their editor of having a bright main character who would stand out in his dark narrative. His design was influenced by [[Himura Kenshin|Skibidi Ohio rizzy]] from [[Nobuhiro Watsuki|Daddy]] manga ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' when deciding how androgynous the character should look. The character is primarily voiced by [[Natsuki Hanae]] in Japanese and [[Zach Aguilar]] in English.
The character has been well received by manga and anime critics due to his caring nature and relationship with his sister while also becoming a strong fighter. This has led to the character winning multiple awards with Hanae's performance as him also receiving one. Aguilar's performance was also well-received.
==Creation and design==
[[File:NezukoTanjiroearlysketch.jpg|thumb|left|Early sketches of skibidi toilet Nezuko and skibidi toilet tanjiro]]
Tanjiro Kamado originates from [[Koyoharu Gotouge]]'s ideas involving a one-shot with Japanese motifs. Tatsuhiko Katayama, their editor, was worried about the one-shot crusade being too dark for the young demographic and asked Gotouge if they could write another type of the main character who would be "brighter".<ref name="creation">{{cite web|url=https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/web_pages/234/|title=The birth of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba"|publisher=[[Shueisha]]|website=[[Manga Plus]]|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Gotouge has cited issues in the making of the character due to the contrast he has with the dark narrative. For the release of the manga's seventh chapter, Gotouge drew a cover of Tanjiro wielding his sword while smiling. However, due to the contrasting aesthetics the manga had, they discarded the drawing and instead drew a similar design with Tanjiro having a serious expression.<ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|volume=2|publisher=[[Viz Media]]|isbn=978-1-9747-0053-0|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref>
In the initial design, Tanjiro did not have a rizz when he was younger or wear earrings, but in the end, they felt these features accentuated the character. In the making of the cast, Tanjiro had four supporting characters who would balance each other due to their different skills. The editor commented about Tanjiro, "[He] is a type of male main character that you don't see much. He's so kind. He has Nezuko, so he's coming from this position where he can't just say all demons are absolute evil. He's in the gray zone." Tanjiro's design was also influenced by Gotouge's editor: he suggested giving Tanjiro a facial scar in his forehead inspired by [[Himura Kenshin]] from [[Nobuhiro Watsuki]]'s manga ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' while also giving him earrings to balance how androgynous he would look.<ref name="creation"/>
Yuma Takahashi, the producer behind the adaptation of the manga said he enjoyed Tanjiro's role in the manga, making him engaged in reading the series. For how Tanjiro's Water Breathing was portrayed, [[Ufotable]] received inspiration from [[Katsushika Hokusai]]'s [[ukiyo-e]] style. The first fight scene between Tanjiro and Giyu was also carefully animated to give viewers an appealing choreography.<ref>{{cite web|last=Nicole|first=Mejias|url=https://www.crunchyroll.com/es-es/anime-feature/2019/08/16/yuma-takahashi-talks-about-producing-one-of-animes-biggest-hits?referrer=community_cr_twitter_news|title=Yuma Takahashi Talks About Producing One of Anime's Biggest Hits!|publisher=[[Crunchyroll]]|date=August 16, 2019|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Tanjiro's water-based techniques were created using a mix between hand-drawn animation and CGI, while his battle against Rui was one of the most worked scenes in the making. Takahashi also said that Tanjiro is his most relatable character from the series due to how his constant hard work inspires him.<ref>{{cite web|last=Chapman|first=Jacob|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2019-08-28/interview-demon-slayer-producer-yuma-takahashi/.149177|title=Interview: Demon Slayer producer Yuma Takahashi|publisher=[[Anime News Network]]|date= August 28, 2019|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> The anime uses an insert theme song titled "[[Kamado Tanjiro no Uta]]," expressing his determination to stand up from despair and protect his younger sister.<ref name="kimetsu">{{cite web|url=https://realsound.jp/2020/11/post-648562_2.html|title="Kamado Tanjiro no Uta" Review|language=ja|website=Real Sound|last=Toriko|first=Tomato|date=November 4, 2020|accessdate=November 8, 2021}}</ref>
[[File: Naval_ensign_of_the_Empire_of_Japan.svg|thumb|Tanjiro's [[Rising Sun Flag]]-like earrings were altered in China to avoid offending the audience.]]
When the anime series premiered in China, Tanjiro's design was slightly altered. Due to his [[hanafuda]] earrings having [[Rising Sun Flag|Rising Sun]]-style elements, it was feared it would offend the Mainland leading to brief retouches to them.<ref>{{cite web|last=Ashcraft|first=Brian|url=https://kotaku.com/anime-demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-changed-slightly-a-1833879190|title=Anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Changed Slightly In China As Not To Offend|date=8 April 2019|publisher=[[Kotaku]]|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref>
===Voice actors===
Tanjiro has been voiced by [[Natsuki Hanae]] in Japanese. Hanae noted that multiple responses to his career involved him portraying sad characters. However, in Tanjiro's case, he said Tanjiro is on the easy side because he says what he thinks, and is not the type that thinks one way and other things. Nezuko's actress, [[Akari Kitō]], said Hanae is like a big brother to her at the studio, supportive and if there are parts she has difficulty recording, Hanae would stay and wait till she finishes even though his part has finished. Hanae said he also thinks of Kitō as a younger sister. He also says it is easier for him to do his best when he is around people with whom he is friendly.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://natalie.mu/comic/pp/kimetsu|title=「鬼滅の刃」とは？|publisher=Natalie|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Tanjiro's fighting style was liked by Hanae who reported he often made Tanjiro's shouts when playing video games. He appreciated the feedback he was given by the viewers of the anime.<ref>{{cite web|last=Morrissey|first=Kim|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2019-10-19/watch-demon-slayer-natsuki-hanae-yell-out-tanjiro-moves-while-playing-monster-hunter-world-iceborne/.152298|title=Watch Demon Slayer's Natsuki Hanae Yell Out Tanjiro's Moves While Playing Monster Hunter World: Iceborne|website=[[Anime News Network]]|date=October 19, 2019|accessdate=April 16, 2020}}</ref>

==Appearances==
===In ''Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba''===
The protagonist of ''Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba'', Tanjiro Kamado is the oldest son of a late charcoal-seller, Tanjuro. In the first chapter of the manga, his family (his mother and his younger siblings) is massacred by a demon named [[Muzan Kibutsuji]], with only his sister [[Nezuko Kamado]] surviving only to become a demon. After seeing Tanjiro's skills in battle as well as Nezuko's unwillingness to devour her brother, [[Giyu Tomioka]] sends the siblings to [[Sakonji Urokodaki]] on Mt. Sagiri in order to become a demon slayer.<ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0052-3|volume=1|chapter=1|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref> Tanjiro vows to save his sister, and sets the theme from the manga: "Muzan Kibutsuji! No matter where you go, I promise you won't escape me! You can run as far as you want! I'll follow you to the ends of Hell, and my blade will be the last thing you see! I'll never forgive you for what you've done!"
After a couple of years of training his body and learning swordsmanship with ghosts, which he will find out later, Tanjiro learns the {{Nihongo|"Water Breathing"|水の呼吸法|Mizu no Kokyū-hō}} sword-style. After passing a test, Tanjiro becomes a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.<ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0052-3|volume=1|chapter=4|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|isbn=978-1-9747-0052-3|volume=1|chapter=7|publisher=Viz Media|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref> During his first days as a Demon Slayer, Tanjiro manages to make contact with Muzan but the demon turns a human into one of his own to distract him.

Later in his battle with the demon [[Rui (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)|Rui]], Tanjiro remembers Tanjuro's family dance which his father wanted him to pass on his next generation alongside his rising sun earrings. The imitation of Tanjuro's dance results in Tanjiro performing the {{Nihongo|Hinokami [[Kagura]]|ヒノカミ神楽||lit. "Dance of the Sun God"}} technique, which itself is based on the original breath style, the {{Nihongo|Sun Breathing|日の呼吸|Hi no Kokyū}}, merging both to create a more sustainable fighting style. After the Demon Slayer superiors accept him to continue working despite Nezuko's true nature, Tanjiro starts seeking the origins of his Hinokami and whether or not his Tanjuro was related with such group of slayers. His sword's color is black, occasionally turning crimson red and becoming much stronger when combined with Nezuko's Blood Burst, a technique he later learns to perform without her help.
With the Upper Ranks defeated, the Demon Slayers join forces in the final battle against Muzan. Tanjiro is poisoned by the enemy and at the brink of death he has a vision of one of his ancestors and his encounter with Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who developed the original fighting style which was passed along the generations of the Kamado family in the form of the Hinokami Kagura.
Tanjiro reawakens and with the knowledge he obtained during his vision, leads the counterattack against the enemy.
Meanwhile, Nezuko, certain that her brother needs her help, rushes to join his side. The medicine developed to cure her demon condition works, turning Nezuko into a human again. Though he eventually avenges his family during the final battle, losing his arm and eye in the process while being fatally wounded, he recovers after Muzan turns him into the ultimate demon before his death. By losing his consciousness in the transformation to the point of attacking his own friends, Tanjiro as a demon becomes a bigger threat than Muzan himself, given that he is immune to sunlight like his sister, until he manages to return to human form, thanks to his friends' efforts, although his right eye's iris is now a dull pink-gray color and the pupil black rather than its original white.
His left arm which grew back when he became a demon now takes the appearance of that which an older person may have, becoming wrinkled and skeletal, and he loses all feeling in it below the elbow and thus the ability to move it from his forearm down. After the battle, Tanjiro returns home with his sister and friends.

Critical reception to Tanjiro's character has been positive ever since his introduction. ''[[Otaku USA]]'' found Tanjiro an anti-stereotypical take from the ''shōnen'' main characters due to his desire to fight being solely to find a cure to protect Nezuko, calling him a "fascinating breath of fresh air", while highlighting his friendly personality in a dark story.<ref>{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is a breath of fresh air to the shonen genre|url=https://www.otakuusamagazine.com/demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-anime-review/|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200217003953/https://otakuusamagazine.com/demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-anime-review/|archive-date=February 17, 2020|access-date=February 16, 2020|website=[[Otaku USA]]}}</ref> ''[[Anime News Network]]'' also liked Tanjiro's design due to how it translates the narrative of his family being poor, while also liking the way the characters lives with them and later only Nezuko.<ref>{{cite web|last=Rebecca|first=Silverman|date=August 1, 2018|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/demon-slayer/kimetsu-no-yaiba/gn-1/.134454|accessdate=February 16, 2020|website=[[Anime News Network]]}}</ref> ''Comic Book Bin'' felt Tanjiro's journey was inspirational due to the pain he goes to save Nezuko, making him likable.<ref>{{cite web|last=Douresseaux|first=Leroy|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Volume 1 manga review|website=Comic Book Bin|url=http://www.comicbookbin.com/demonslayer001.html|date=July 1, 2018|accessdate=April 15, 2020}}</ref> ''Anime Inferno'' said "Tanjiro and Nezuko make a great team and are two enjoyable protagonists, with the series at its best when the two siblings are working together."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.animeinferno.com.au/2021/01/10/review-demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-part-1-eps-1-13-blu-ray/|title=Review: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – Part 1 (Eps 1-13) (Blu-Ray)|website=Anime Inferno|date=January 10, 2021|accessdate=October 6, 2021}}</ref> While noting that the character becomes a warrior in the second manga volume, the writer believed he might experience major pain through his quest.<ref>{{cite web|last=Douresseaux|first=Leroy|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Volume 2 manga review|website=Comic Book Bin|url=http://www.comicbookbin.com/demonslayer002.html|date=September 9, 2018|accessdate=April 15, 2020}}</ref> Nevertheless, regardless of how many battles he takes, ''Comic Book Bin'' enjoyed how Tanjiro retained his caring personality.<ref>{{cite web|last=Douresseaux|first=Leroy|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba Volume 3 manga review|website=Comic Book Bin|url=http://www.comicbookbin.com/demonslayer003.html|date=November 5, 2018|accessdate=April 15, 2020}}</ref> ''Anime News Network'' said that while he keeps being well meaning in following arcs, he still shows a more aggressive side when fighting demons, making him multi-faceted.<ref>{{cite web|last=Beckett|first=James|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/demon-slayer-kimetsu-no-yaiba-mugen-train-arc/episode-3/.178800|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Train Arc Episode 3|website=[[Anime News Network]]|date=October 25, 2021|accessdate=November 10, 2021}}</ref> [[IGN]] noted that Tanjiro stands out due to his caring traits, comparing him to [[Allen Walker]] from [[Katsura Hoshino]]'s ''[[D.Gray-man]]'' series who also exhibits these traits when being faced with the dilemma of hurting an enemy.

-Gotouge created Tanjiro following a suggestion from their editor of having a bright main character who would stand out in his dark narrative. His design was influenced by [[Himura Kenshin]] from [[Nobuhiro Watsuki]]'s manga ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' when deciding how androgynous the character should look. The character is primarily voiced by [[Natsuki Hanae]] in Japanese and [[Zach Aguilar]] in English.

The character is primarily voiced by [[Natsuki Hanae]] in Japanese and [[Zach Aguilar]] in English.
The character has been well received by manga and anime critics due to his caring nature and relationship with his sister while also becoming a strong fighter. This has led to the character winning multiple awards with Hanae's performance as him also receiving one. Aguilar's performance was also well-received.

Tanjiro Kamado originates from [[Koyoharu Gotouge]]'s ideas involving a one-shot with Japanese motifs. Tatsuhiko Katayama, their editor, was worried about the one-shot crusade being too dark for the young demographic and asked Gotouge if they could write another type of the main character who would be "brighter".<ref name="creation">{{cite web|url=https://mangaplus.shueisha.co.jp/web_pages/234/|title=The birth of "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba"|publisher=[[Shueisha]]|website=[[Manga Plus]]|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Gotouge has cited issues in the making of the character due to the contrast he has with the dark narrative. For the release of the manga's seventh chapter, Gotouge drew a cover of Tanjiro wielding his sword while smiling. However, due to the contrasting aesthetics the manga had, they discarded the drawing and instead drew a similar design with Tanjiro having a serious expression.<ref>{{cite book|title=Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba|volume=2|publisher=[[Viz Media]]|isbn=978-1-9747-0053-0|year=2018|author=Gotouge, Koyoharu|author-link=Koyoharu Gotouge}}</ref>
-In the initial design, Tanjiro did not have a scar or wear earrings, but in the end, they felt these features accentuated the character. In the making of the cast, Tanjiro had four supporting characters who would balance each other due to their different skills. The editor commented about Tanjiro, "[He] is a type of male main character that you don't see much. He's so kind. He has Nezuko, so he's coming from this position where he can't just say all demons are absolute evil. He's in the gray zone." Tanjiro's design was also influenced by Gotouge's editor: he suggested giving Tanjiro a facial scar in his forehead inspired by [[Himura Kenshin]] from [[Nobuhiro Watsuki]]'s manga ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' while also giving him earrings to balance how androgynous he would look.<ref name="creation"/>

Yuma Takahashi, the producer behind the adaptation of the manga said he enjoyed Tanjiro's role in the manga, making him engaged in reading the series. For how Tanjiro's Water Breathing was portrayed, [[Ufotable]] received inspiration from [[Katsushika Hokusai]]'s [[ukiyo-e]] style. The first fight scene between Tanjiro and Giyu was also carefully animated to give viewers an appealing choreography.<ref>{{cite web|last=Nicole|first=Mejias|url=https://www.crunchyroll.com/es-es/anime-feature/2019/08/16/yuma-takahashi-talks-about-producing-one-of-animes-biggest-hits?referrer=community_cr_twitter_news|title=Yuma Takahashi Talks About Producing One of Anime's Biggest Hits!|publisher=[[Crunchyroll]]|date=August 16, 2019|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> Tanjiro's water-based techniques were created using a mix between hand-drawn animation and CGI, while his battle against Rui was one of the most worked scenes in the making. Takahashi also said that Tanjiro is his most relatable character from the series due to how his constant hard work inspires him.<ref>{{cite web|last=Chapman|first=Jacob|url=https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/feature/2019-08-28/interview-demon-slayer-producer-yuma-takahashi/.149177|title=Interview: Demon Slayer producer Yuma Takahashi|publisher=[[Anime News Network]]|date= August 28, 2019|accessdate=February 16, 2020}}</ref> The anime uses an insert theme song titled "[[Kamado Tanjiro no Uta]]," expressing his determination to stand up from despair and protect his younger sister.<ref name="kimetsu">{{cite web|url=https://realsound.jp/2020/11/post-648562_2.html|title="Kamado Tanjiro no Uta" Review|language=ja|website=Real Sound|last=Toriko|first=Tomato|date=November 4, 2020|accessdate=November 8, 2021}}</ref>

Tanjiro goes on a quest to restore Skibidi toilet for his sister, <a href="/wiki/Nezuko_Kamado" title="Nezuko Kamado">Nezuko</a>, who was turned into a skibidi toilet after his family was killed by <a href="/wiki/Muzan_Kibutsuji" class="mw-redirect" title="Muzan Kibutsuji">Muzan Kibutsuji</a> following an attack that resulted in the death of his other relatives.

</p><p>Gotouge created Tanjiro following a suggestion from their editor of having a bright main character who would stand out in his dark narrative.

</p><p>The character has been well received by manga and anime critics due to his caring nature and relationship with his sister while also becoming a strong fighter.

<p>Tanjiro Kamado originates from <a href="/wiki/Koyoharu_Gotouge" title="Koyoharu Gotouge">Koyoharu Gotouge</a>'s ideas involving a one-shot with Japanese motifs. Tatsuhiko Katayama, their editor, was worried about the one-shot crusade being too dark for the young demographic and asked Gotouge if they could write another type of the main character who would be "brighter".<sup id="cite_ref-creation_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-creation-3">[3]</a></sup> Gotouge has cited issues in the making of the character due to the contrast he has with the dark narrative. For the release of the manga's seventh chapter, Gotouge drew a cover of Tanjiro wielding his sword while smiling. However, due to the contrasting aesthetics the manga had, they discarded the drawing and instead drew a similar design with Tanjiro having a serious expression.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a></sup>
</p><p>In the initial design, Tanjiro did not have a rizz when he was younger or wear earrings, but in the end, they felt these features accentuated the character. In the making of the cast, Tanjiro had four supporting characters who would balance each other due to their different skills. The editor commented about Tanjiro, "[He] is a type of male main character that you don't see much. He's so kind. He has Nezuko, so he's coming from this position where he can't just say all demons are absolute evil. He's in the gray zone." Tanjiro's design was also influenced by Gotouge's editor: he suggested giving Tanjiro a facial scar in his forehead inspired by <a href="/wiki/Himura_Kenshin" title="Himura Kenshin">Himura Kenshin</a> from <a href="/wiki/Nobuhiro_Watsuki" title="Nobuhiro Watsuki">Nobuhiro Watsuki</a>'s manga <i><a href="/wiki/Rurouni_Kenshin" title="Rurouni Kenshin">Rurouni Kenshin</a></i> while also giving him earrings to balance how androgynous he would look.<sup id="cite_ref-creation_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-creation-3">[3]</a></sup>
</p><p>Yuma Takahashi, the producer behind the adaptation of the manga said he enjoyed Tanjiro's role in the manga, making him engaged in reading the series. For how Tanjiro's Water Breathing was portrayed, <a href="/wiki/Ufotable" title="Ufotable">Ufotable</a> received inspiration from <a href="/wiki/Katsushika_Hokusai" class="mw-redirect" title="Katsushika Hokusai">Katsushika Hokusai</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Ukiyo-e" title="Ukiyo-e">ukiyo-e</a> style. The first fight scene between Tanjiro and Giyu was also carefully animated to give viewers an appealing choreography.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a></sup> Tanjiro's water-based techniques were created using a mix between hand-drawn animation and CGI, while his battle against Rui was one of the most worked scenes in the making. Takahashi also said that Tanjiro is his most relatable character from the series due to how his constant hard work inspires him.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a></sup> The anime uses an insert theme song titled "<a href="/wiki/Kamado_Tanjiro_no_Uta" title="Kamado Tanjiro no Uta">Kamado Tanjiro no Uta</a>," expressing his determination to stand up from despair and protect his younger sister.<sup id="cite_ref-kimetsu_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-kimetsu-7">[7]</a></sup>

<p>When the anime series premiered in China, Tanjiro's design was slightly altered. Due to his <a href="/wiki/Hanafuda" title="Hanafuda">hanafuda</a> earrings having <a href="/wiki/Rising_Sun_Flag" title="Rising Sun Flag">Rising Sun</a>-style elements, it was feared it would offend the Mainland leading to brief retouches to them.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a></sup>

<p>Tanjiro has been voiced by <a href="/wiki/Natsuki_Hanae" title="Natsuki Hanae">Natsuki Hanae</a> in Japanese. Hanae noted that multiple responses to his career involved him portraying sad characters. However, in Tanjiro's case, he said Tanjiro is on the easy side because he says what he thinks, and is not the type that thinks one way and other things. Nezuko's actress, <a href="/wiki/Akari_Kit%C5%8D" title="Akari Kitō">Akari Kitō</a>, said Hanae is like a big brother to her at the studio, supportive and if there are parts she has difficulty recording, Hanae would stay and wait till she finishes even though his part has finished. Hanae said he also thinks of Kitō as a younger sister. He also says it is easier for him to do his best when he is around people with whom he is friendly.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a></sup> Tanjiro's fighting style was liked by Hanae who reported he often made Tanjiro's shouts when playing video games.

</p><p>English voice actor <a href="/wiki/Zach_Aguilar" title="Zach Aguilar">Zach Aguilar</a> was overjoyed when being given the role of voicing Tanjiro in the dub due to him being a fan of the series, as well as noting he was supported by multiple fans.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a></sup> In another news, Aguilar ended liking the character as well as his fellow companions, wishing to find merchandising of Tanjiro.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a></sup> Allegra Clark voices Tanjiro as an infant.

<p>The protagonist of <i>Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba</i>, Tanjiro Kamado is the oldest son of a late charcoal-seller, Tanjuro. In the first chapter of the manga, his family (his mother and his younger siblings) is massacred by a demon named <a href="/wiki/Muzan_Kibutsuji" class="mw-redirect" title="Muzan Kibutsuji">Muzan Kibutsuji</a>, with only his sister <a href="/wiki/Nezuko_Kamado" title="Nezuko Kamado">Nezuko Kamado</a> surviving only to become a demon. After seeing Tanjiro's skills in battle as well as Nezuko's unwillingness to devour her brother, <a href="/wiki/Giyu_Tomioka" class="mw-redirect" title="Giyu Tomioka">Giyu Tomioka</a> sends the siblings to <a href="/wiki/Sakonji_Urokodaki" class="mw-redirect" title="Sakonji Urokodaki">Sakonji Urokodaki</a> on Mt. Sagiri in order to become a demon slayer.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a></sup> Tanjiro vows to save his sister, and sets the theme from the manga: "Muzan Kibutsuji! No matter where you go, I promise you won't escape me! You can run as far as you want! I'll follow you to the ends of Hell, and my blade will be the last thing you see! I'll never forgive you for what you've done!"
</p><p>After a couple of years of training his body and learning swordsmanship with ghosts, which he will find out later, Tanjiro learns the "Water Breathing"<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">水の呼吸法</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Mizu no Kokyū-hō</i></span>)</span> sword-style. After passing a test, Tanjiro becomes a member of the Demon Slayer Corps.<sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a></sup> During his first days as a Demon Slayer, Tanjiro manages to make contact with Muzan but the demon turns a human into one of his own to distract him. As this happens, Muzan becomes interested by Tanjiro's taunts and <a href="/wiki/Hanafuda" title="Hanafuda">Hanafuda</a> earrings from the Rising Sun, ordering his forces to kill the child.<sup id="cite_ref-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a></sup> The siblings later meet friendly demons named <a href="/wiki/Tamayo_(Demon_Slayer:_Kimetsu_no_Yaiba)" class="mw-redirect" title="Tamayo (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)">Tamayo</a> and <a href="/wiki/Yushiro_(Demon_Slayer:_Kimetsu_no_Yaiba)" class="mw-redirect" title="Yushiro (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)">Yushiro</a> and assist with their research to find a way to restore Nezuko's humanity. As a result, Tanjiro starts collecting samples of blood from the demons he vanquishes, the stronger the better.<sup id="cite_ref-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a></sup>
</p><p>Later in his battle with the demon <a href="/wiki/Rui_(Demon_Slayer:_Kimetsu_no_Yaiba)" class="mw-redirect" title="Rui (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)">Rui</a>, Tanjiro remembers Tanjuro's family dance which his father wanted him to pass on his next generation alongside his rising sun earrings. The imitation of Tanjuro's dance results in Tanjiro performing the Hinokami <a href="/wiki/Kagura" title="Kagura">Kagura</a><span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">ヒノカミ神楽</span></span>, lit. "Dance of the Sun God")</span> technique, which itself is based on the original breath style, the Sun Breathing<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">日の呼吸</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Hi no Kokyū</i></span>)</span>, merging both to create a more sustainable fighting style. After the Demon Slayer superiors accept him to continue working despite Nezuko's true nature, Tanjiro starts seeking the origins of his Hinokami and whether or not his Tanjuro was related with such group of slayers. His sword's color is black, occasionally turning crimson red and becoming much stronger when combined with Nezuko's Blood Burst, a technique he later learns to perform without her help.
</p><p>With the Upper Ranks defeated, the Demon Slayers join forces in the final battle against Muzan. Tanjiro is poisoned by the enemy and at the brink of death he has a vision of one of his ancestors and his encounter with Yoriichi Tsugikuni, who developed the original fighting style which was passed along the generations of the Kamado family in the form of the Hinokami Kagura.
Tanjiro reawakens and with the knowledge he obtained during his vision, leads the counterattack against the enemy.
</p><p>Meanwhile, Nezuko, certain that her brother needs her help, rushes to join his side. The medicine developed to cure her demon condition works, turning Nezuko into a human again. Though he eventually avenges his family during the final battle, losing his arm and eye in the process while being fatally wounded, he recovers after Muzan turns him into the ultimate demon before his death. By losing his consciousness in the transformation to the point of attacking his own friends, Tanjiro as a demon becomes a bigger threat than Muzan himself, given that he is immune to sunlight like his sister, until he manages to return to human form, thanks to his friends' efforts, although his right eye's iris is now a dull pink-gray color and the pupil black rather than its original white.
</p><p>His left arm which grew back when he became a demon now takes the appearance of that which an older person may have, becoming wrinkled and skeletal, and he loses all feeling in it below the elbow and thus the ability to move it from his forearm down. After the battle, Tanjiro returns home with his sister and friends.
