The Demon Slaying Corps is an organization dedicated to protecting humanity from Demons and the killing them. There are hundreds of members in the organization, but they are not openly acknowledged by the government.[1] The organization has existed since ancient times and have continued to hunt Demons till today.[2]


Structure

In order to become a demon slayer, an individual must initially prepare and train in order to pass the Final Selection, a test used as an entrance exam to join the Demon Slaying Corps. During this selection, individuals must survive for 7 nights on a mountainside infested with demons without any aide from the outside world.

The students who pass the Final Selection automatically become Mizunoto ranked slayers and complete a variety of missions to reach the rank of Kinoe. Ranks are as follows:

Mizunoto→Mizunoe→Kanoto→Kanoe→Tsuchinoto→Tsuchinoe→Hinoto→Hinoe→Kinoto→Kinoe

All demon slayers are given a nichirin blade, which is specialized to eliminate demons efficiently, highly durable and light weight uniforms and are assigned a Kasugai crow for communications.
