How Old is Tanjiro in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Explained
Since Demon Slayer tackled Tanjiro’s journey, the whole story did not happen in just a year. When the series started, Tanjiro is 13 years old. It was during this age when he found his whole family dead and his remaining sister was turned into a demon.
He then trained under Sakonji for two whole years where he was introduced to the water breathing technique, and he improved his innate skills. He was 15 years old when he became part of the demon slayer corps. Joining the organization meant he had to undergo different missions with his friends. By Chapter 204, he is 16 years old.
