The Sun Breathing technique is the legendary original breathing technique used by the first and strongest demon slayer Yoriichi- Tanjiro’s ancestor. This technique is said to have fatally wounded, scarred, and traumatized the living daylights out of Muzan- pun intended.
Sun Breathing Technique Is The First Breathing Technique In Demon Slayer
The Sun Breathing Technique or Hinokami Kagura (Dance of the Fire God) is the original breathing technique used by Yoriichi Tsugikuni- the first and strongest demon slayer in history. This technique is the origin of all other breathing techniques as they are all derived from it based on each individual’s interpretation and use of it.
In today’s era, Tanjiro managed to use this technique in a moment of desperation by remembering all those years he watched his frail father dance in the snow which he called the ritual of the Dance of the Fire God which mimics its movements and breathing.
Why The Sun Breathing Technique is Deadly To Demons
The Sun Breathing Technique is especially deadly to demons because unlike the Flame Breathing Technique which only mimics a flame or a fire, the Sun Breathing mimics the fire of the sun- which we all know is the natural enemy of the demons.
Demons can’t survive in daylight and any sunlight is deadly to them- the Sun Breathing Technique mimics the heat and fire of the sun, thus killing even the strongest of demons swiftly. The moment a demon slayer’s personal breathing technique gets closer to the Sun Breathing one, they manifest the Demon Slayer mark which we have discussed and explained in the linked article.
