Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba
Season 02
S02E07 - Set Your Heart Ablaze
With all that is left in him, Kyojuro unleashes one last, powerful attack at Akaza, momentarily stunning him. However, Akaza fatally injures him, and despite Kyojuro trying to restrain him, flees upon seeing the arrival of daybreak, breaking Kyojuro’s sword. In desperate fury, Tanjiro flings his sword with all his force at Akaza, who nonetheless escapes as an enraged Tanjiro denounces him as a coward for running away. While Kyojuro succumbs to his injuries, he confides in Tanjiro messages for both his brother and father for him to give them. He accepts Nezuko as a member of the Demon Slayer Corps, and encourages Tanjiro to “set his heart ablaze”. He sees a vision of his proud mother, before passing away peacefully, devastating Tanjiro and Inosuke. The other Hashiras receive the news of Kyojuro’s death, while the head of the Demon Slayer Corps, Kagaya, appreciates him for not letting a single passenger or comrade die in his presence.
