First Form: Dance Form of Sun Breathing
It’s not surprising that the basic form of Demon Slayer’s Sun Breathing method resembles a dance motion as it evolved from a classic dance style. The swordsman pushes their blade forward and down in an arc while performing it. This cutting attack is excellent for overwhelming adversaries, but it requires a lot of force and lacks the other forms’ quickness.
Tanjiro additionally enhanced the pace of this move by combining it with Zenitsu’s Thunderclap and Flash to create a Dancing Flash. Although the move’s strength was unaffected, doing so made it very difficult to dodge. However, Tanjiro can’t depend on it all the time because he needs to breathe in a lot of oxygen to vigorously pump blood to his legs.
Second Form: Clear Blue Sky
When there are no clouds in the sky above you, the sun alone entirely rules the clear blue sky. This version of the sun breathing technique aims to imitate that. The user spins their upper body in circles while releasing slashes in all directions to execute this move. They can now control the majority of the battlefield, and this also gives them a sun-like appearance.
The technique is ideal for taking on several opponents at once as well as larger demons because it launches assaults in all directions. In the Mugen Train Arc of Demon Slayer, Tanjiro uses this technique to slice numerous bodily sections of a demon that is much larger than himself.
Third Form: Raging Sun
The Raging Sun is comparable to Demon Slayer’s Sun Breathing in its first form. But it features two continuous horizontal slashes rather than a single vertical strike. The attack knocks back the opponents while simultaneously inflicting damage. With the use of this Sun Breathing form, a person can effectively defend against several attacks at once.
One of the strongest female characters in Demon Slayer and an Upper-Rank demon in the Entertainment District storyline, Daki, uses this move to fight Tanjiro’s sentient obi. The maneuver offered our protagonist room to maneuver and also drove his adversary back, which delayed the approaching onslaught. However, keep in mind that this version leaves a different trail from the second one you vulnerable on other sides, which won’t be ideal if the opponents are widespread.
