As mentioned above, Mitsuri has special feelings for Iguro, who is the Serpent Hashira.

Interestingly, Mitsuri is a powerful Hashira and she is looking for someone who is stronger than her.

But compared to other Hashira, Iguro is not that strong.

It is evident that Iguro is physically weaker than Mitsuri who is taller than him.

Despite this, Mitsuri likes him. However, this love is certainly not a one-way street as Iguro loves her too.

Talking about Iguro, before he met Mitsuri, he despised women and even hated his own existence.

But he is passionately in love with Mitsuri. Sadly, he believes that he is not worthy of being loved by a woman due to his traumatic upbringing.

It is Mitsuri who becomes the guiding light for the dark soul in Iguro. She shows him the true meaning of unconditional love.

Mitsuri introduces Iguro to a woman who is as strong as a man yet she is generous and kind toward others.

Iguro is indeed touched by her genuineness and always looks forward to being with her.

After Mitsuri’s arrival in his life, Iguro realizes what love can do to change a person’s life.

Iguro and Mitsuri’s love is not a stereotypical romance. He never feels jealous of Mitsuri’s stronger presence as she beats him in arm wrestling.

The Love Hashira has a big appetite and often eats a lot. However, Iguro never judges her eating habits or her love for food.

Iguro pays attention to Mitsuri and never misses a chance to gift her things.

Sadly, in the Infinity Castle Arc, Muzan Kibutsuji kills Mitsuri in battle.

After the battle, Iguro is shown with Mitsuri’s body, and they are aware that her time is near.

On her deathbed, Mitsuri confesses that she is in love with him and wants to be his wife.

She asks him if he would take her as his wife if they are reborn as humans. He agrees and vows to protect her at all costs.

Eventually, they reincarnate and end up marrying each other.
