This article contains heavy spoilers for Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 1 and the Demon Slayer manga.
Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 1 has become the biggest anime film of all time and managed to do incredible numbers at the Japanese box office. More than that, though, it sparked the fans' love Demon Slayer on an unprecedented scale. Fans are now hyped for the next movie, Infinity Castle Part 2, and it is sure to feature some of the most powerful characters.
With some characters like Akaza having gone down in the first movie, new powerful characters will appear to show their abilities in the next movie, such as Kokushibo, and Stone Hashira, Gyomei.
Mitsuri
The love Hashira
Love Hashira, Mitsuriis definitely a powerhouse even among Hashira. Fans have already seen her abilities during the Swordsman Village arc when she single-handedly held off the former Upper Rank Four until Sunrise.
Mitsuri will face the Upper Rank 4 again in the next movie, but this time it will be Nakime, the newly promoted demon in full control of Infinity Castle. That said, her powers will really shine in the final battle against Muzan, rather than in the second film.
Obanai
The snake Hashira
Obanai will have his moment during Infinity Castle Part 2, but his true shining moment will be in the final Demon Slayer movie. Nevertheless, Obanai will go up against Upper Rank Four Nakime. His role may not seem as big, but it will certainly be crucial in the upcoming Demon Slayer movie. He still has a lot to offer, both against Nakime and beyond.
Giyu
Water Hashira
Giyu took center stage during the first film, Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle Part 1. Beside Tanjiro, Giyu put on Upper Rank Three Akazaand while they almost lost, Akaza's suicide allowed them to survive and prepare for the next threat.
Giyu is still one of the strongest Hashira and he will be present in the next movie as well. That said, he won't be seen much in Infinity Castle Part 2 as he recovers from his first battle. He will make his big return against Muzan in the final film.
Sanemia
The wind Hashira
Sanemi is quite easily one of the most competent Hashira ever seen. As Wind Hashira, he will face the toughest battle in Infinity Castle Part 2 when, along with a few others, he confronts Kokushibo.
Sanemia will display his destructive breath attacks, and without him, the others would never have been able to stand up to such an overwhelmingly powerful Upper Rank One demon.
Gyomei
The stone Hashira
Among the Hashira, it is quite easy to see that the strongest is, without a doubt, Gyomei, the stone Hashira. Gyomei is the oldest and most experienced, and he, along with other characters, will face Kokushibo.
The battles in Infinity Castle Part 2 will not be easy, but Gyomei will show why he is considered the best among Hashira.
Nakime
The Upper Rank Four Demon
Nakime was promoted to the position of Upper Rank Four by Muzan before the start of Infinity Castle, and she will live up to this title in Part 2. Her Blood Demon Art is crucial to the entire battle, and once she is defeated, Infinity Castle will likely crumble. Taking down Nakime will be key in the quest to defeat Demon King Muzan.
Doma
The Upper Rank Two Demon
Doma is Upper Rank Two Demonand the confrontation with him started in the first movie, all thanks to Shinobu. As fans well know, Doma managed to kill and absorb Shinobu, so he is still alive as one of the strongest in Infinity Castle Part 2.
Kanao and Inosuke will be going up against him soon, and it will be interesting to see how they hold up against him in this big battle in Infinity Castle Part 2.
Kokushibo
The Upper Rank One Demon
Kokushibo is Muzan's strongest subordinateby far. Fans have always wanted to see more of him, and that's exactly what will happen in Infinity Castle Part 2.
His fight will finally evolve as he takes on a very powerful Hashira. It is expected to be the toughest fight yet, and it will take four demon slayers to keep him at bay.
The muse
The Demon King
Muzan is arguably the strongest character currently alive in Demon Slayer. The only man who alone can defeat him, Yoriichi, has died.
Muzan is the final boss of the seriesand his ultimate confrontation will be beyond Infinity Castle Part 2, but fans are eagerly waiting to see what he has planned as the intense battles continue.
