Akaza, also known as the Upper Rank Three of the Twelve Moon Kizuki, is one of the supporting antagonists from “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba”. He is the fourth most powerful demon in existence, only beneath Douma, Kokushibo and the Demon King himself, Muzan. He hates other demons, especially his fellow Upper Moons, considering them his rivals.

Abilities: Demons are biologically similar to vampires, requiring human flesh and blood to survive. Demons can only be killed by sunlight or decapitation by a special “Nichirin” blade, and are thus nocturnal. Akaza has astounding regenerative abilities, able to regrow severed or damaged limbs instantaneously. He fights hand-to-hand, using the “Soryu” style martial arts he was taught as a human. He is far stronger, faster, and tougher than humans, able to move in the blink of an eye and cleave through people easily with his bare fists. He also has supernatural senses, able to detect scents, sights and sounds that humans cannot.

Akaza is a headstrong, stubborn and battle-crazed Social Darwinist who enjoys fighting, especially against strong Demon Slayers. He purposefully draws out fights so as to savor every moment of it, always complimenting his opponents when they unleash strong techniques or land blows on him, usually remarking that their techniques and swordsmanship are magnificent and intriguing. Akaza looks down on anybody he deemed weak, so much so that his skin would crawl at the sight of them. He genuinely respects those who were strong in his eyes, demanding to know their names, and will not stop asking until he finds out; he remembers all the names of strong past opponents and commits them to memory as tribute to their strength. Akaza also presents an opportunity for those he recognizes the strength of to become demons, believing that preserving their refined techniques and skill is important and feels pain watching the deterioration of those blessed with extraordinary gifts as they age, and going so far as to kill them in order to preserve their magnificent skill himself should they decline his offer to become a demon.

Despite his battle-crazed and aggressive nature, Akaza carries a twisted honor code, refusing to eat or harm women. He is fiercely loyal to his master, Muzan. Though he loves combat, he does not thrill in causing fear or suffering, instead lamenting the loss of a strong warrior if he is driven to kill.

Akaza has an obsessive need to grow stronger, though if asked directly, he won’t exactly know the reason. He has virtually no memories of his past life as a human, his once noble heart twisted and corrupted by Muzan’s influence.

Akaza was once a human named Hakuji, a young criminal branded with the same tattoos that mark his skin as a demon. The only reason he committed crimes was out of sheer desperation, as he needed money to buy medicine for his chronically ill father. Even after receiving countless beatings that would make a grown man go numb, his resolve never wavered, further declaring that he would endure those same beatings for a hundred years just for his father to heal, showing how much he valued the well-being of his loved ones more than himself. His father, viewing himself as a burden, took his own life, but he was quickly taken in by a man named Keizo and his dojo. Hakuji was a prodigal student, honing and refining the “Soryu” Style taught to him there. He fell in love with Keizo’s sick daughter, Koyuki, taking care of her with the experience he gained from nursing his father. A rival dojo grew envious of their strength, poisoning their water and killing both Keizo and Koyuki, the people he loved most. In a rage, he killed every person in the rival dojo with his bare hands before he was found by Muzan and turned into a demon.
