Hashira, the Demon Slayer's Mistress, and Muichiro Tokito are here to greet you.
Muichiro Tokito will be one of the main characters in Demon Slayer season 3.
Tokito is one of the youngest members of the Demon Slayer Corps, as confirmed in chapter 156 in the manga!
With Tengen revealing in season 2 that Tokito only took two months to pass the final exams, Stone Hashira Gyomei Himejima has surpassed him.
Tokito is often dubbed an "air-head" because he is constantly distracted by the environment around him and often losing his concentration after trying to remember something from his past. The reason for this disillusionment is that poor Tokito was raised in a very traumatic environment.
When Tokito was very young, his twin brother, whom he was always in contact with as a child, was brutally murdered and eaten by a demon in front of him. This caused him to lose all of his memories prior to his brother's death, and ultimately, ended with Tokito retreating into the darkest realms of his subconscious.
Despite Tokito's astounding amount of anger and hatred, he remains enraged and hateful, which is one of the main reasons why he trained so hard to become a Hashira in just two months.
"Remember that boiling anger. My body will remember that anger that will not leave me until I die." It's why I trained so hard that I vomited blood to eradicate demons, and more... to eradicate them!"

The Mist Hashira is well-known for his incredible speed and reflexes, as well as his exceptional 'Transparent World' ability, which allows him to see details of muscle tissue and flowing blood through both clothing and armor.

- Second Form: ‘Eight-Layered Mist’ – Tokito uses eight forward slashes in extremely quick succession.
- Third Form: ‘Scattering Mist Splash’ – Tokito uses a powerful circular slash that can be used to blow away projectiles.
- Fourth Form: ‘Shifting Flow Slash’ – Tokito uses a lightning-quick dash towards their enemy and delivers a slash from beneath them.
- Fifth Form: ‘Sea of Clouds and Haze’ – Tokito dashes forward at high speed and uses a flurry of slashes that cover a wide area that obscures their movements.
- Sixth Form: ‘Lunar Dispersing Mist’ – Tokito backflips into the air while upside down and delivers countless ranged slashes downwards.
- Seventh Form: ‘Obscuring Clouds’ – Tokito changes the tempo of their movement to disorient their enemy, which seemingly takes the form of clouds of mist enveloping a wide area.
