Although he was the only survivor, Tanjiro joined the “Demon Slayer Corps” to protect people and fight monsters to turn his younger sister Nezuko, who had become a demon, back into a human. I threw myself into a fight to the death.
“Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” begins with a prologue, a Japanese-style legendary battle manga serialized in “Weekly Shonen Jump” from 2016 to 2020.
The author is Koyoharu Gotoge, and the main attraction is the typical story of a boy’s manga centered around friendship, effort, and victory. Not only that, but it is also a famous work that has received high praise for its drama, such as the skill with which each character’s lines are delivered and the tragic past of demons who were once humans. So far, a total of four seasons of anime have been produced, starting with 2018’s “Kamado Tanjiro Risshi Hen,” Mugen Train Arc,” Red Light District Arc,” and “Swordsmith’s Village Arc,” all of which have become global blockbusters. have become.
The newly animated “Hashira Training Edition” is a story of the strongest pillars in the Demon Slayer Corps training hard for the final battle, and fans will be able to dig deeper into the characters of the pillars. This is something to be noticed.
“Hashira Keiko Edition” begins broadcasting.
The “Pillar Training Edition” started in May 2024, and the first episode was broadcast as a one-hour special.
“Hashira Training” is an episode drawn from the original work following “Swordsmith’s Village.” The story is that the main character, Tanjiro, and other members of the Hashira rank and below take turns to train with the Demon Slayer Corps’ most vital members, the Hashira. Pillars that have rarely had the chance to be seen before also appear, and the content depicts many scenes where you can see their unique personalities.
Screaming Island also appears as one of the pillars. We look forward to seeing what kind of training the soldiers will receive.
An emergency meeting was held in the first episode, and birthmarks were mentioned. The seven pillars remained and tried to discuss plans, but Giyu Tomioka said, “Excuse me,” and left. Sanemi Shinazugawa and others tried to stop Tomioka, and the scene was disturbed, but the applause that shook the surrounding area calmed the scene down.
Did a birthmark appear on Screaming Island?
As the “Hashira Training Edition” is being broadcast, no birthmarks have appeared on Sekiya.
Regarding birthmarks, Amane Ubuyashiki, the lord’s wife, spoke about them during the Hashiraai meeting in the first episode of the Hashira Keiko edition.
What is the anime “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba”? Height, age, and voice actor
Screaming Island is a pillar of rock and one of the strongest swordsmen in the Demon Slayer Corps. It is a very unusual surname, but no other surname is written as “Yakurei” and pronounced as “Himejima,” so it is probably a creation of Mr. Gotouge. However, although the kanji is different, there are approximately 400 people across the country with the surname Himejima, which has the same pronunciation and is most commonly found in Usuki City, Oita Prefecture, and Tokyo and Nara Prefecture.
He is a great and strong man with a massive body like forged steel, and despite having lost his eyesight, he is the oldest of the pillars and is a skilled swordsman with many years of experience in battle. In addition, his gentle personality and calm demeanor that does not faze him have earned him the respect of the pillars, and he has become the second spiritual pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps after the master. Of course, his strength is worthy of the respect of the pillars, and when he encounters demons, he fights by wielding a strange weapon similar to a kusarigama, a long chain with an ax and a giant iron ball attached to each end.
On the other hand, it seems that he is feared among the soldiers because he is highly tearful and starts crying easily, which is why he is listed in the ranking “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Official Fan Book: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Chronicles 2”. Ranked 3rd in the “Pillars who are difficult to talk to” category. Even in his first appearance at the Hashiraai meeting, he shed tears while saying the rude line to Tanjiro, “I feel sorry for the fact that he was even born.”

Basic information about Gyomei Sakuma [Voice actor]
Tomokazu Sugita plays the voice of Shikakuji. He is a famous voice actor who broke out in 2006 by starring in three TV animations: Yuichi Aizawa in “Kanon,” Gintoki Sakata in “Gintama,” and Kyon in “The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.” He is known for his ability to play the roles of young men with his deep, low-pitched voice, and in 2009, he won the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 3rd Seiyu Awards. His representative works in recent years include the role of Escanor in “The Seven Deadly Sins” and the role of Kohei Nikaido in “Golden Kamuy.”
Mr. Sugita decided to become a voice actor when he devised a stage script for a school event, recorded his voice, and added sound effects and background music. He recommended that I try a job at the company. After that, he failed the first audition he took at a voice acting agency, so he tried introducing himself in a manzai style for the next exam and passed with flying colors.
Sugita is also famous for being very good at impersonation. His impersonation of Char Aznable from “Mobile Suit Gundam” was particularly well-received, and he was used as a joke at various locations. However, Shuichi Ikeda, a senior in the industry and the voice actor for the role of Char found out about this, and he broke out in a cold sweat as he told the radio program “Tomokazu Sugita’s Anigera! Didoon!!” It was revealed in the talk.

What is the basis for the rumor that Yukimei Scream from the anime “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” is the strongest in the Demon Slayer Corps?
As of the time before the broadcast of the TV anime “Hashira Training Edition,” Scream Island was the only pillar that did not have a battle scene depicted in the anime. However, among fans, there is no end to the voices that support Yakushima as the strongest pillar, even though his role is not depicted. What on earth does this mean?
The reason for this is based on the information written on the bonus page of the original comic and the “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Official Fan Book: Demon Slayer Corps Observation Record 2”. For example, in the Hashira Arm Wrestling Ranking published in the 11th volume of the original comic, Sakurei is ranked number one, and the author’s comment is “Butchigiri.” Furthermore, in the official fan book, Ni no Hashira Shunsaku Banzuke, Yakushima was ranked 3rd. He ranks first in power and third in speed among the pillars, so you can see that he is physically blessed.
I want to pay more attention to the evaluation from other pillars. In the 8th episode of the TV anime “Yuukaku-hen,” Tengen Uzui, a sound pillar, talked with Gyutaro, a member of the first-string Riku, about whether or not he had talent. The first thing I mentioned was Scream Island. If his physical ability is top-class and he has a lot of talent, Shikakuya would be substantial.
In the official fan book 2, Kasumi Pillar Muichiro Tokito is the “strongest person,” and Koi Pillar Mitsuri Kanroji is “the strongest person in the Demon Slayer Corps.” “The most powerful,” he said of Shikakuyu. This information must have been the deciding factor for Shikakuji to become regarded as the strongest in the Demon Slayer Corps. In the TV anime “Hashira Keikohen,” the main character Tanjiro and his friends also witness the strength of Shikakuji. Let’s see what kind of evaluation will be given then.
Above, we have summarized the basic information about Shikakuyu, referring to the TV anime, original comics, official fan books, etc.
Sekiya receives little attention among the Hashira, perhaps due to his lack of appearances. Voice actor Sugita also appeared on stage at the “Hashira Keiko Hen” world tour held on February 2, 2024. He commented happily, saying, “Gyomei Sakido doesn’t talk much, so this time, he finally got to talk a lot!”
Let’s pay attention to what kind of activity Shikakuya, who is finally blessed with a full-fledged role, will show in the “Hashira Training Edition”!
