Susamaru

RACE Demon Human (Formerly) GENDER Female HAIR COLOR Black to Orange EYE COLOR Yellow

Appearance Susamaru was a pale-skinned woman with bright yellow eyes with cat-like slits and white horizontal slats with black hair with orange-colored ends. Her hair was styled as bangs at the front.

Susamaru wore a pair of long silver earrings and an orange kimono that matched her hair. She had a black haori on top but took them both off when she entered her battle, revealing a small black sarashi that covers her chest and upper abdomen.

Although she normally had an average build, when fighting seriously, her body became noticeably more muscular. She could also grow two new pairs of arms as well.

Personality Susamaru was shown to be rather playful, yet very brash and quite immature while almost always smiling and always enjoys and accepts a challenge. Her pet phrase is "what fun this is" and she will repeat this constantly if engaged in bouts she deems amusing. Her immaturity is a stark contrast to Yahaba's seriousness.

She was fanatically loyal to Muzan Kibutsuji and battled to the best of her abilities in the hopes of killing Tanjiro Kamado and taking Tamayo hostage for her master. When the latter had denounced Muzan as a manipulative coward, she defended his honour and denied her statements vehemently.

History Background Susamaru was a young girl who enjoyed playing with temaris before she was transformed into a demon. At some point, she encountered Muzan Kibutsuji and was convinced by him that she, along with Yahaba, was a member of the Twelve Kizuki, a group of the most powerful demons in history that serve under him. She became intensely loyal towards Muzan and was incredibly proud of her "position" as a Twelve Kizuki.

Overall Abilities Susamaru was a fairly powerful demon, as she was able to hold her own against Tanjiro Kamado and pressure him in battle. Even when Nezuko strengthened herself in order to match Susamaru's power, Tamayo noted that in a drawn-out battle, the Temari Demon would eventually prevail.

Demon Abilities Enhanced Strength: As a demon, Susamaru had tremendous physical strength, as she was able to throw her temaris with enough force to smash through walls and decapitate Yushiro. She was also able to kick her handball strong enough to sever Nezuko's leg.

Flesh Manipulation: Like all demons, Susamaru possessed the ability to control and alter her flesh to a certain extent. She can use this ability to grow 4 more arms, allowing her to conjure more handballs and increase her offensive output.

Regeneration: Susamaru, like all demons, possessed powerful regenerative abilities, as shown when Tanjiro had sliced off all her arms and she was able to heal just moments later. However, it was not enough to survive the activation of Muzan Kibutsuji's curse, as his absolute control over demons left her unable to heal afterwards, leaving Susamaru to die in the sunlight exposed.

Fighting Style Hiasobi Temari (火ひ遊あそび手て毬まり, Hiasobi Temari?): Susamaru's Blood Demon Art allows her to conjure temari handballs at will. These handballs are extremely durable, being able to withstand being thrown and kicked at high speeds and destroy any objects they come in contact with. They can, however, be penetrated by a sharp object such as a Nichirin Sword. Susamaru uses her temaris in conjunction with Yahaba's Koketsu Arrows to increase their lethality and effectiveness.
