Demon Slayer is one of the most popular anime of the series and with the third season around and even hitting the theaters of some regions, it is without a doubt the most loved anime in the anime community. The reason for its popularity could be deduced from its animation by Ufotable and the fight sequences the anime has.
The animation in this series is always popular since its first episode and fans have loved to see the struggle of the characters against the human-eating demons. While there is all this hate and fight for survival, Demon Slayers has talked very less about “Love” in particular. Since the anime is popular and its main character Tanjiro Kamado is one of the highlights of the anime, fans surely do have a lot of questions regarding the character.
One of the being the love interest of the character. Since the series has spoken very less about love and only hunting demons, fans surely want to learn more about the characters and their love interest to see a change of pace. But even though the series ends up on a good note after a lot of deaths and tragedy, the series speaks very less about love.
Thus, we will be fixing that in this article and will tell you the its and bits of the “love” emotion that has always been there hidden among the darkest of the situation through the main character of the series and his lover’s interest in the series. With that being said, let’s dive into a speculative and reminiscing post about the Demon Slayer series.
Who Does Tanjiro End Up With In Demon Slayer?
At the end of the series, we will Tanjiro Kamado end up with Kanao Tsuyuri. Since Demon Slayer isn’t exactly about “Love” emotion, it was nice of the author to show us who Tanjiro ends up with at the end of the series. Even though it wasn’t shown on the screen or panels, Tanjiro does indeed end up with Kanao Tsuyuri and even marries her and has children with her.
Their love and affection for each other might be shown very less in the show however, it is there and from the very first meeting of both characters. Before departing from the Butterfly mansion and ending up in the entertainment district, we learned a lot about Kanao including her past and how she acts.
Her past revealed that she was more or less a child slave incapable of making any decision and being abused regularly even by her own father. She was sold from person to person which made her incapable of making any decision and following orders from others.
Tanjiro And Kanao First Interaction
When Kanao came into Kanae Kocho’s care she told her that she could make a decision by flipping a coin if she is not ordered by anyone. This is how we even saw Kanao speak to Tanjiro the first time she did. Curious Tanjiro asked her about her decision-making coin and end up flipping a coin to decide her fate if she should follow her heart.

Luckily the coin ended up flipping on its head which instantly made the decision for Kanao that she will follow her heart. Tanjiro even held her hands saying that it is the heart that drives the people. This made Kanao feel very different and when she asked how he had landed the coin Heads he said that it was by luck and he would have kept flipping the coin until it would have landed on heads.
Following with a smile at the end of this dialogue saw Kanao mesmerized by it and we believe that it is the start of their relationship. This helped Kanao show more emotions and express her feelings as we saw and will in the anime when Tanjiro returns to the Butterfly Mansion and Kanao is happy to see him after concerns about him.
As mentioned earlier, even though we did not see the marriage or more about the love interest lot Tanjiro and Kanao in the series, we believe that it was enough for them to show their love by caring for each other and their children in the modern world who resemble them a lot are the sign of their love.
