Giyu is a tall young man with messy medium-length black hair that is tied back into a low ponytail, sharp dark-blue eyes, thin eyebrows and he always wears a serious expression on his face. He wears the standard black Demon Slayer's uniform along with a haori with two different patterns: one solid red and one geometrically patterned with green, orange, and yellow, which were based on the haoris worn by his late older sister Tsutako Tomioka and dead best friend Sabito. Giyu has a reserved personality and a strong sense of justice with no tolerance towards those who don't know their own limitations and throw away their lives. While letting Nezuko Kamado live due to Tanjiro Kamado's persistence, he shows zero hesitation when killing other Demons and has no respect towards them like most Demon Slayers. Even so, Giyu violated the Demon Slayer Corps' code of conduct without hesitation to protect Nezuko, during Shinobu Kocho's attempt to kill her. This implies that he doesn't completely despise Demons as some other Hashira do, and is willing to make an exception for a Demon by letting them live if they don't kill and eat humans. This shows that he is more pragmatic in dealing with Demons rather than out of hatred for Demons like some other Hashira do. Giyu appears to have a complex with what others think of him and is shocked when Shinobu claims he is hated by many. He is a man of very few words and has trouble interacting with others, so he usually keeps himself at a distance. It is revealed later on that Giyu suffers from an inferiority complex which he developed since his participation in the Final Selection. It gets severe to the point where he contemplates abandoning his position as the Water Hashira until Tanjiro helps him realize that instead of acting on his survivor's guilt, he should cherish his life and live on for the people who sacrificed their lives for him. Giyu developed a hatred for Demons after one of them killed his sister Tsutako and no one believed him. To avenge her, Giyu took up Water Breathing training under Sakonji Urokodaki alongside Sabito and Makomo. Giyu is the current Water Hashira as well as the first Demon Slayer that Tanjiro Kamado comes across as he initially tries to kill Nezuko Kamado, but reconsiders after seeing her protect an unconscious Tanjiro as he sends them to his mentor Sakonji Urokodaki in the hopes that Tanjiro could succeed him and possibly cure Nezuko. He does not think of himself as a true Hashira, despite mastering Water Breathing as he considered his fellow apprentice Sabito, who died saving other Demon Slayers-in-training, more suited for the role. He has developed an additional technique to Water Breathing, which he alone knows. As a Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, Giyu is a very powerful swordsman. He is able to easily defeat the Father Spider Demon in his transformed state, and Rui, Lower Rank Five of the Twelve Kizuki.

Water Breathing Style: Taught by Sakonji Urokodaki. The user can increase the amount of oxygen in one's blood by controlling his breathing pattern. This increases his strength and agility to equal a demon's. He has learned to do full focus breathing at all times as all Hashira have, further increasing his base strength, speed, and stamina. Not only does he know all of the Water Breathing techniques, but he's developed one additional style of his own. First Form: Water Surface Slash: A single concentrated slash. Second Form: Water Wheel: The user jumps and preforms a forward vertical 360 slash. Third Form: Flowing Dance: The user swings his blade at his opponent in a way that mimics the movement of waves on the surface of water. Fourth Form: Striking Tide: The user makes multiple consecutive slashes while twisting their body in a flowing fashion similar to a harsh tide. Fifth Form: Blessed Rain After the Drought: A "sword strike of kindness" that kills the target with little to no pain. This style is used when the enemy surrenders. Sixth Form: Whirlpool: The user fiercely twists their upper and lower body, which creates a whirlpool that cuts anything caught in it. Seventh Form: Drop Ripple Thrust: A fast and accurate stab. The fastest Water Breathing technique. Eight Form: Waterfall Basin: The user cuts the target vertically. Ninth Form: Splashing Water Flow: Minimizes the landing time and surface needed when landing, allowing the user to move without limits. Ideal when fighting in a place with no solid foothold. Tenth Form: Constant Flux: A continuous attack that increases in power with each rotation, creating a strong slash. The attack takes the form of a Japanese water dragon. Eleventh Form: Dead Calm: A technique created by Giyu himself. Giyu engages a skill that disables and nullifies incoming attacks. However, its effectiveness is limited as fast and numerous attacks can break through it.
