But There Were Those Who Fought These Demon, People Who Protected The Common And Slayed Demons.

Kaito Minakami Is One Of These Demon Slayers In Fact He Was The Highest Rank Of Demon Slayer, A Hashira. Kaito Minakami Was 27 Years Old, And Was A Very Tall Man Being 7' 1 Feet Tall, Taller Than A Lot Of People. With A Lean Muscular Build, With Curly Black Hair With Blue Tints And Ocean Blue Eyes With White Pupils. Kaito Was Sitting At His Home Near The Ocean.

It Was A Medium Sized House Situated By The Ocean In A Local Village. The Build Was A Traditional Japanese Style Building, Unlike Some Of The Newer Western Influenced Buildings. On The Left Side Of The Building It Had A Fish Pond On The Outside With A Garden. On The Right Side It Had A Beautiful Cherry Blossom Tree With Some Training Equipment. It Also Had A Wooden Fence, With A Gate In The Front. Kaito Was Sitting Near The Fish Pond, Throwing Food At The Fish.

He Was Wearing The Signature Demon Slayer Uniform, Which Consisted A Black Tinted Jacket, A Button-Up Jacket With Golden Buttons And A Stand Collar And Long Sleeves, A White Belt, Tattsuke Hakama Pants That Is Wrapped Tightly Around His Calves By A Pair Of White Kyahan, And With Tabi Socks In The Same Color Of His Uniform On His Feets, With A Pair Of Zōri With Blue Straps, All Beneath His Ocean Colored Haori That Had Wave Like Pattern On It.

Then There Was His Weapon Which Was A Large Naginata, Forged From Nichiren Steel (Color Changing Metal), Because Of This The Naginata Was Bigger And Heavier Than A Normal Naginata With The Staff Reaching His Shoulder, And The Blade Going Pass His Head A Bit. But With His Training To Be A Demon Slayer It Wasn't Heavy At All, At Least To Him It Wasn't. As He Was Sitting He Heard A Crow. Looking Up At The Sky Which Was A Clear Sky With The Sun Burning Bright And Warm. Lifting His Left Hand For The Crow To Land On It Was His Personal Crow, Also Called Kasugai Crows.

They Might Seem Like Normal Crows But Were Anything But. Kasugai Crows Were Used Primarily For Communication. Each Of Them Are Assigned To A Demon Slayer Corps Member. They Are Responsible For Delivering Missions To Their Designated Members. These Crows Are Also Special In That They Can Speak In Full Sentences, Though Their Speech Is Very Loud And Limited. As Such They Were Vital To The Demon Slayer Corps For This. His Crow Then Landed On His Arm, As Soon As The Crow Landed Kaito Scratched The Crows Back.
