Background
Giyu Tomioka is a protagonist of the manga and anime series, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. As a stoic and highly respected swordsman, Giyu serves as one of the ten elite Demon Slayers known as the Pillars. In particular, Giyu is the Water Pillar, as he specializes in the Water Breathing style. Not only is Giyu the first Pillar met in the series, but also the first Demon Slayer to appear as well, serving as distant support and guidance for Tanjiro Kamado.
As a boy, Giyu witnessed his older sister Tsutako sacrifice herself in order to protect him from demons. Hoping to avenge her, Giyu became a pupil of the former-Water Pillar, Sakonji Urokodaki, where he met another boy that would soon become his best friend, Sabito. Unfortunately, during the Final Selection, Sabito too would perish and allow for Giyu's life to continue.
From that day on, Giyu honed his skills to the point where he became a Pillar, though he never truly felt deserving of the title. He would soon come to meet Tanjiro and his demonic sister, Nezuko Kamado, who he sympathized with. Against all orders from his peers in the Pillars, Giyu protected Nezuko, certain that Tanjiro would find a way to cure her.

He even actively fought one of the Pillars to save her, proving his secret knack for disobedience)
Codex Statistics
Tier: 8-A, Higher with Demon Slayer Mark
Cardinality: Finite
Dimensionality: 3-D
Attack Potency: City District level (As a Pillar, Giyu should be comparable to Kanao Tsuyuri, as she was directly compared to Pillars; Kanao is superior to a severely weakened Doma, who could instantly create a giant ice sculpture), Higher with Demon Slayer Mark (Awakening a Demon Slayer Mark will grant the user greater power than usual)
Durability: City District level, Higher with Demon Slayer Mark
Striking Strength: City District Class, Higher with Demon Slayer Mark
Lifting Strength: Class 25 (As a Pillar, Giyu should be capable of everything required in Pillar Training, including pushing a large boulder across a town)
Travel Speed: At least Superhuman, likely Higher (Could move faster than an untrained eye could detect)
Attack Speed: At least High Hypersonic (Should be comparable to Tanjiro Kamado, as Tanjiro was directly compared to the Pillars; Tanjiro could attack in tandem with his Full Focus Mode, which has Tanjiro mimic Zenitsu Agatsuma's Thunder Breathing, allowing for movement at this speed)
Reaction Speed: At least High Hypersonic
Stamina: At least Peak Human (A part of Demon Slayer training is to destroy a giant gourd with breath alone, when even destroying a small gourd seems unfathomable to regular humans)
Range: Standard Melee, Extended Melee with Nichirin Sword
Intelligence: Genius Intelligence (Giyu has been a Demon Slayer active in combat for several years, ever since he was a boy, and has fought incredibly powerful demons on countless occasions. This includes being able to keep up with Akaza, and Mizan Kibutsuji to an extent, who have both been alive for countless years)
Powers and Techniques
Equipment
Blue Nichirin Sword, Bright Red Nichirin Sword (when under extreme stress)
Notable Techniques
A Breathing Style that has been directly derived from the original Breathing Style, Sun Breathing. It mimics water, specifically the flow, flexibility and adaptability of the liquid, replicated by the movements of its user. Most, if not all of the Water Breathing forms involve bending the body in a fluid motion. Visually, it appears as though the user is creating and manipulating water itself.
- First Form - Water Surface Slash: The user generates enough momentum to create a powerful single concentrated slash.
- Second Form - Water Wheel: The user leaps and vertically spins forward in the air while releasing a flowing attack in a circular motion. It has a horizontal variant, Lateral Water Wheel.
- Third Form - Flowing Dance: The user makes multiple consecutive slashes while twisting their body and sword in a flowing fashion to deliver multiple blows simultaneously.
- Fifth Form - Blessed Rain After the Drought: The user changes the grip on their sword and decapitates the opponent in a single flowing strike that causes little to no pain. It is a “sword strike of kindness” used when the enemy willingly surrenders.
- Sixth Form - Whirlpool: The user fiercely twists their upper and lower body, creating a whirlpool of air that cuts anything caught in it. Its effect and efficiently is enhanced underwater, where the user can draw water around their weapon to enhance their slashes.
- Seventh Form - Drop Ripple Thrust: The user performs a fast and accurate stab, capable of reducing the impact of a moving target.
- Eighth Form - Waterfall Basin: The user cuts the target vertically in a flowing motion which is most effective when they are falling downward.
- Ninth Form - Splashing Water Flow: The user changes their footwork in a way that minimizes the landing time and surface needed when landing, allowing the user to move without limits. Ideal when fighting in a place with no solid foothold.
- Tenth Form - Constant Flux: The user performs a continuous flowing attack which seemingly takes the form of a water dragon that increases in strength and power with each rotation due to momentum.
- Eleventh Form - Dead Calm: Giyu's self-created technique. Giyu ceases all body movements and enters a state of complete tranquility, deflecting, blocking and cutting any incoming attacks with imperceptible speed with his blade. However, its effectiveness is limited as fast and numerous attacks can break through.
Other
Weaknesses: Following the battle with Muzan Kibutsuji, Giyu lost his right arm. Note that his career as a Demon Slayer preceeds this event, however, so having both of his arms is standard.
