Tengen Uzui is a confident and kind character who feels responsible for his actions and follows the code of a demon hunter. He has three wives and a strong sense of responsibility. He is a “ladies’ man,” enjoying bright things and the company of ladies.
Character
Tengen Uzui is a shinobi who specializes in sound techniques. His heightened sense of hearing allows him to hear opponents and determine their numbers from a distance. He can also use echolocation to pinpoint his location and a battle. Tengen’s strength is immense, making him the second strongest physical character in the game.
Tengen often thinks about exterminating the Uzui clan. His family was murdered before he was even ten years old. He killed his two older brothers and then watched his surviving brother murder others. This was something Tengen did not want his family to experience and wanted to break away from the dangerous mindset of his clan.
Although he may appear to be ruthless in his training, Tengen has a kind side to him. He expresses his compassion for his family only to those close to him. After a successful undercover mission, he congratulates his two younger siblings and assures Hinatsuru that his life is of the utmost importance. He later becomes friendly with Inosuke, Tanjiro, and Zenitsu.
Sound Breathing
Sound Breathing is a technique that can cause a great deal of damage to an opponent. It is based on the Zenitsu art of Thunder Breathing. The aim of the technique is to scare or intimidate an opponent by imitating loud sounds. Tengen supplements this technique with shinobi training and explosives, such as mini bombs and giant Nichirin cleavers. It is said that Tengen invented the technique and is credited with the discovery of the sound breathing technique.
Tengen Uzui’s Sound Breathing technique is a branch of the Breath of Thunder. He was a former Sound Pillar, but retired due to injury. He has multiple piercings and many jewel decorations on his body. He is also known for his flamboyant personality, and draws fuchsia colored circles on his left eye.
Strength
Tengen Uzui is one of the strongest Hashiras in the Demon Slayer Corps. He has exceptional strength, and uses a special breathing technique called Sound Breathing, which is derived from Thunder Breathing. He also has immense stamina, which makes him an excellent fighter. Although his sword skills are not as advanced as other Hashira, he has the highest stamina among all of them.
Tengen’s other powerful traits include enhanced stealth and an incredible resistance to poison. He is also adept at spinning his sword by a chain. This technique enables him to block blows and attack quickly in retaliation.
Openness
The openness of Tengen Uzui is an interesting trait, despite his aloof behavior. While he is usually reserved with his wives, he is not a cruel person. He would never lie just to spare their feelings. In fact, he told his wife Daki that she is too weak to be an Upper Rank. This also led him to say that Gyutaro was the true Upper Six Kizuki.
Tengen Uzui is known to be a caring individual, but he reserves this side of himself for his closest friends. He praises and reassures his friends Makio and Suma after the undercover mission, and tells Hinatsuru that lives are precious. He also becomes friendly with Zenitsu, Tanjiro, and Inosuke after the Entertainment District Arc.
