Synopsis

Tsuzumi Mansion Arc

Following their battle at the Tsuzumi Mansion, Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke are guided by Tanjiro's Ksaugai Crow to Hisa's lodging for rest and recovery. Opening the door to the commotion outside, Hisa greets the three Demon Slayers and offers them to come in; Inosuke begins poking her, to Tanjiro's annoyance, but she leads them in without notice him. Inside the house, Hisa provides them with new clothes and food. After eating, she provides them with futons to sleep in and introduces them to a doctor to treat their injuries.

After the three have recovered, they are directed to their new mission in the forests of Mount Natagumo. Before they depart, Hisa strike a kiribe flint to bid them good luck on their mission. Confused, Inosuke angrily yells at her, causing Tanjiro to hold him back and Zenitsu to stand in front of Hisa, though she does not mind his behavior.

Infinity Castle Arc

As Tanjiro watches Giyu Tomioka fight Akaza, he recalls a conversation he had with Inosuke regarding the ability to sense danger through his body. Inosuke notes that while he can detect bloodlust through even a glance at him, Hisa's kind personality inadvertently enabled her to sneak up on him due to her possessing no negative emotions whatsoever.

Abilities

As an ordinary human, she doesn't posses any additional powers or abilities.
