In her battle against Doma, Kanao takes uncharacteristically sadistic glee in pointing out his own lack of emotions. Kanao gradually becomes able to express her emotions and wants more openly, as seen when Tanjiro recovers from his injuries and she displays relief, when she tells Shinobu that she wishes to train alongside her, and when she expresses shock and distress at Shinobu's plan to defeat Doma. She also gains the ability to speak unambiguously. However, he eventually manages to start bringing her out of her shell, and she starts to make more of her own decisions. She displays a somewhat mechanical response in conversations when Tanjiro Kamado approaches her to bid to her farewell, she repeats "goodbye" when he attempts to continue the conversation. Kanao repeatedly bids farewell to Tanjiro.īetween Kanae's death and the Rehabilitation Training Arc, she recovers slightly but still relies on her coin to make decisions. However, Kanao also eventually developed her own desire to fight. Initially, Shinobu instructed Kanao to simply cut off Demon heads without thinking, since Kanao had no will of her own. Without their excuse, Kanao learned Flower Breathing by watching her sister Kanae.ĭespite her perceived lack of emotion or desire, Kanao took the Final Selection of her own volition, without consulting her superiors for permission, which would imply that her will had been strengthening all along. Since Kanao couldn't do housework and nursing at the Butterfly Mansion like her colleagues she opted to be a Demon Slayer. Despite this, after seeing what Demons did to Aoi, Kiyo, and Shinobu's loved ones, Kanao developed a strong hatred against Demons directly from her own will.
įor many years, Kanao continued to show little emotion or desire. In order to help rectify this, Kanae gave her a coin to flip to decide which path to follow when she didn't know what to do. She became unable to make decisions by herself and repressed her emotions as a defense mechanism. Personality Īt first, Kanao was an indecisive and quiet girl due to the abuse she endured in her past before meeting the Kocho sisters. She also loses the ability to see out of her right eye due to her using Flower Breathing's final form to take out the Upper Rank, with her eye gaining a defined pupil with a dark ring around it and becoming deprived of its gradient. After her battle with Doma, Kanao begins to wear Shinobu Kocho's hairpin rather than Kanae's as the latter's shattered as a result of her battle. Sometime between then and her next appearance in the Infinity Castle Arc, the color of Kanao's hair changes as the ends now appear tinted slightly purple before fading to a neon pink around halfway down her ponytail. Over this, she wears a short white cloak, fastened on one side by a dark pink triple knot, also sporting knee-high lace-up white boots with tan soles, heels and toes.
Kanao wears a slightly purple-tinted version of the standard Demon Slayer uniform, just with a knee-length pleated skirt in place of the usual tattsuke-hakama pants. She has a straight fringe and two loose, chin-length strands that curve downwards from above each of her ears. She has thin black hair, worn tied into a ponytail on the right side of her head and fastened by a pink and green butterfly ornament that once belonged to her adoptive sister, Kanae Kocho. Kanao is a short, young girl with large, gentle eyes of a dark lilac color that are framed by thick eyelashes.
