Inosuke Hashibira

Inosuke Hashibira is a Demon Hunter and member of the Demon Killing Corps and a travelling companion of Tanjirou Kamado.

Appearance
Inosuke is usually seen wearing a grey boar mask, with a shirtless version of the Demon hunter uniform. Without the mask, he has messy shoulder-length black hair and large green eyes with long eyelashes. He is described as having a girly looking face which significantly contrasts with his muscular body.

Personality
Inosuke is extraordinarily short-tempered and proud and makes a big deal out of fighting opponents stronger than him claiming that's his only hobby. Insouke will not think about the difference in power between him and his opponent; this often led him to be in danger. He is a sore loser and is always trying to compete with Tanjiro and provoke him into fighting with him and usually failing. Due to growing up in the mountains by himself Inosuke has trouble interacting with others and only cares about himself most of the time. However, as time goes by, Inosuke becomes more influenced by Tanjiro, and he also starts to think and to use strategies before going head-on with an opponent.

Kamado Tanjirou
Inosuke sees Tanjirou as a rival due to him enjoying competing with stronger opponents. Over the years that they spent together, Tanjirou seemed to have a positive effect on Inosuke as ever since meeting Tanjirou, Inosuke has been more open-minded about how others' are strong, hence the pillars. Inosuke also developed his ability to think and analyse the opponent's powers and skills.
