Gyokko

RACE Demon Human (Formerly) GENDER Male AGE

133 (Chronologically) HEIGHT 150 cm (4'11") (Normal) 170 cm (5'7") (Molted)[1] WEIGHT 40 kg (88 lb) (Normal) 80 kg (176 lb) (Molted)[1] EYE COLOR Honey Brown Gyokko had a very bizarre and grotesque physiology, taking on the form of a pale white, abstracted, grotesque humanoid figure with a muscular upper torso that has no arms and resembles that of an armless statue growing from a porcelain vase, similar to a djinn. His midsection is a red-violet color while his lower-half, or his tail is black. He had multiple underdeveloped and infant-like hands; four on his head that replaced his ears and were always present, and several lining up his body and tail which he can retract at will. He also possessed thin fins on the top and back of his head that were akin to hair, which were of a blended hue of purple and blue-violet color and shaped in the style of cornrows and a ponytail.

Gyokko's face was even more distorted, with large green-lipped mouths located where one would expect his eyes sockets to be located, which always displayed his hyperrealistic teeth and sometimes had one of or both of his tongues sticking out. His actual eyes were located vertically from one another on his face; one eye appeared in the constantly open bottom mouth and the other was seated at the center of his forehead. The kanji for Upper Rank (上じょう弦げん, Jōgen?) was engraved on his forehead's eye and the daiji for Five (伍ご, Go?) was engraved on his mouth's eye. In addition, his twin green mouths are generally expressionless and only move when speaking or eating, while the mouth that displays his lower eye is the one that contorts to display Gyokko's emotions.

When in battle, Gyokko was shown to molt and transform into his true form, which bore heavy resemblance to that of a merman. In this state, Gyokko retained his facial features and muscular physique but now possessed a more humanoid body covered in transparent scales akin to a fish He also grew much larger, attains a mane of longer fish tail-like hair, dark markings on various places around his body, webbed hands with turquoise blue scales, and a long serpent-like tail in place of his legs. In addition, the mouth which displays his lower eye has 4 stitches, with 2 on each side, giving it a rag-doll like appearance. Gyokko was also short-tempered, shallow, and arrogant, especially when it comes to things regarding his "art", as seen when he was easily enraged when someone didn’t like his “art”. Gyokko had a particularly morbid sense of taste

the holder of the fifth highest position in the Twelve Kizuki, Gyokko was an extremely powerful demon. His unique Blood Demon Art and techniques allow him to easily outclass the average demons and give him the necessary edge to overwhelm and kill even the Hashira, the most skilled and powerful swordsman in the Demon Slayer Corps. As Upper Rank Five, Gyokko is more powerful than Gyutaro and Daki, the former having killed 15 Hashira and the latter having killed 7.[4] Gyokko has displayed many impressive feats, such as spawning a plethora of powerful demon-like creatures with unique attacks, highly unorthodox movement both within and out of his pots, and a second hidden form.

Like all demons, Gyokko possessed the ability to manipulate his own flesh. He used this ability to shift his facial features and adopt his unusual djinn-like physiology. Gyokko also displayed the ability to grow numerous short arms on his head and torso, even while he was decapitated.[3] Additionally, Gyokko's numerous vases were made from his own flesh, as seen when he was able to instantly form them in his hand in order to use.

Immense Regeneration: As an Upper Rank demon, Gyokko had very powerful regeneration. This was shown when he survived being decapitated by Muzan Kibutsuji and later sealed off the wound and reattached his head.[5] He also displayed the ability to quickly heal injuries inflicted by Nichirin Swords without much difficulty.[6]Most astoundingly, Gyokko was shown being able to survive direct decapitation from a Nichirin sword, attempting to grow his body back from the stump of his neck, though Muichiro was able to overwhelm it by slicing him into countless small pieces, eventually killing him Molting Transformation: In dire situations, Gyokko could molt and transform into his true form, boosting all his abilities and liberates him from his vase, allowing him to move freely without needing to teleport.[8] Gyokko's true body was extremely durable as well, since the Upper Rank remarked that the scales that cover his body are harder than diamond. Furthermore, whatever Gyokko touches was instantly transmuted into fish, which made him extremely dangerous to fight in close range.[9]

Physical Abilities

Immense Durability: As an Upper Rank, Gyokko possessed an extremely durable body superior to that of Gyutaro, whose neck was nigh-uncuttable to Tanjiro Kamado. A single slash from Muichiro could only somewhat penetrate his neck instead of cutting it off, although the Mist Hashira's sword was badly chipped and he also had not manifested his Demon Slayer Mark at the time.[10] His durability was further amplified in his molted form, where Gyokko's skin became layered in thick and hard scales that he noted to be harder than diamond,[11] making his body extremely fortified. Like all demons, Gyokko possessed infinite stamina and endurance. He first displayed this when being decapitated by Muzan, where the Upper Rank didn't show any signs of pain, and even commented on how pleasurable it was.[5] Furthermore, Gyokko commented on how having a sword slash his neck was beautiful.[17] Porcelain Vase Spells: Gyokko's Blood Demon Art revolved around his porcelain vases. He was able to spawn them anywhere within his vicinity and create multiple pots of varying sizes at once. Gyokko first displayed the ability to freely teleport from one pot to another instantaneously, offsetting his lack of legs and allowing him to travel far distances with minimal effort as well as to evade attacks easily.[18] Gyokko could also trap objects (such as people) inside his pots. If the object he wishes to seal is too big, the pots can simply compress them to fit inside.[19] The pots also seem to give Gyokko liberty of whatever was inside, which he uses to merge the swordsmiths together in impossible ways and allows him to create whatever he pleases inside them. Gyokko's Blood Demon Art was notably themed around the sea and aquatic lifeforms, as his techniques were based on summoning non-sentient creatures that resembled fish from his pots. These fish monsters similarly possessed differing abilities and characteristics: some of them could shoot out a barrage of poisonous needles at his targets[26] or leave behind dangerous poison once they are killed.[27] He also summoned goldfish-like monsters with scythe-like appendages to threaten Hotaru Haganezuka.[28] Gyokko could also summon giant octopus tentacles from his vases to restrain his enemies or destroy the surroundings.[29] Lastly, Gyokko could also manipulate and create water from his porcelain vases, which he can use as a cannon-like attack in which he shoots out powerful streams of water or shape water into sharp, high-pressure tendrils to cut targets like a sharp whip or even suffocate his targets by trapping them inside an extremely durable vase made of water.[30] Thousand Needle Fish Kill (千せん本ぼん針ばり魚ぎょ殺さつ, Senbonbari Gyosatsu?)[26] - Gyokko summons floating fish demons from his pots which spit out a barrage of poisnous needles. The poison contains paralyzing properties which immobilize the target.[31] Water Prison Pot (水すい獄ごく鉢ばち, Suigokubachi?)[30] - Gyokko creates a vase structure made out of water that traps the target. The water suffocates the target and prevents them from using any breathing technique, making it difficult for them to break free and escape.[17] Octopus Vase Hell (蛸たこ壺つぼ地じ獄ごく, Takotsubo Jigoku?)[29] - Gyokko manifest gigantic tentacles from his pots to restrain his targets. These tentacles are strong enough to destroy a shed and are noted to be extremely durable.[32] Ten Thousand Gliding Slime-Fish (一いち万まん滑かっ空くう粘ねん魚ぎょ, Ichiman Kakkūnengyo?)[27] - Gyokko summons a total of ten thousand slime-fish from multiple pots to attack his target and devour them whole, leaving nothing but bones. When these fish are cut, they release a poison before disintegrating completely. This poison is percutaneous, meaning it can merely be absorbed through the skin in order to kill a target.[33] Killer Fish Scales (陣じん殺さつ魚ぎょ鱗りん, Jinsatsu Gyorin?)[16] - In his true form, Gyokko delivers a wide-ranged barrage of physical attacks made all the more powerful by his immense speed and unusual body constitution. Through his special scales, he is able to manipulate his direction and attack at odd angles, making his attacks wildly unpredictable.
