Kyojuro Rengoku is not just one of the most popular Demon Slayer Hashira, he is one of the most iconic anime heroes of all time. His Flame Breathing expertise, talent with a Nichirin sword, relentless bravery, and eventual courageous sacrifice during his final battle of the Mugen Train Arc all combine to make him a character worthy of great admiration. @theprincedeguzman on Instagram created a dramatic, flame-filled Rengoku look that definitely shows appreciation for his heroic deeds.
@theprincedeguzman is wearing a black long-sleeved shirt with white trim and black pants, the simple outfit that all Demon Slayers wear in their battles. All Demon Slayers and Hashira spice up their uniforms with personal touches that represent their unique breathing style, and Rengoku is no different. The cosplayer is wearing a white cape with yellow and red details on the bottom edge, making the outfit appear as if being consumed by flames from below. Rengoku’s hair includes this same fiery detail, and @theprincedeguzman wears a yellow and red wig to capture the distinctive look.

The Flame Hashira has one of the best and most carefully designed weapons in the world. Demon Slayer
The cosplayer also created Rengoku’s signature thick black eyebrows with makeup and donned a pair of yellow and red contact lenses to match his eye color that matches the rest of his flame-inspired look. To complete Rengoku’s outfit, the cosplayer carries Rengoku’s sword one of the most beautifully designed and meaningful Nichirin swords in Demon Slayer. Flame Hashira’s sword is a striking mix of black and red on the blade with a white hilt. The most beautifully crafted element of his sword is the black, yellow, and orange flame-shaped hilt that perfectly encapsulates Rengoku’s powers.
After Rengoku’s untimely and traumatic death at the hands of the Upper Third Grade demon, Akaza, Tanjiro refused to let his memory and legacy die and added this flame-shaped hilt to his own swordproof of the impact Rengoku had on everyone whose path he crossed. Rengoku has mentored so many characters, from Tanjiro to Mitsuri, imparting his wisdom and skill to the people around him so that everyone can improve and have a chance against the world’s toughest demons. Rengoku never wavered in his commitment to stopping evil, and even in his final moments, he fought fearlessly until his body could no longer.
Rengoku’s wisdom and sacrifices have a lasting impact on Demon Slayer
Not only did he kill many demons, but he also gave others the tools to continue his legacy
@theprincedeguzman’s cosplay is shockingly accurate to the Rengoku anime look, and the visual effects and photo editing only add to the cosplay’s accuracy. The cosplayer is completely surrounded by orange flames, like Rengoku used to do when using his powerful flame breathing style against an enemy. The cosplayer’s Nichirin sword is also engulfed in a fiery flame, as they hold it towards the camera, ready to slay a dangerous demon. Kyojuro Rengoku has changed Demon Slayer for the better, leaving a mark that lasted even her own lifetime, and legendary cosplays like @theprincedeguzman show Flame Hashira a well-deserved appreciation for her brave actions.
