The beloved character Kamado Tanjiro – the main protagonist of the anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba – has prompted AI to create a hyper-realistic portrait of this young man. The images provided to ChatGPT by fans depict Tanjiro holding a sword, seemingly preparing for a fierce battle against demons.


Using advanced AI technology, a new live-action version of Tanjiro has been created that is incredibly realistic and detailed. However, this new rendition of Tanjiro appears older and more mature than the character’s age in the manga/anime. In the story, Kamado Tanjiro is a 15-year-old boy living during the Taisho period (1912-1926) in Japan. The AI’s portrayal of a more adult Tanjiro might not resonate with the fans who are accustomed to the character’s youthful image.
Tanjiro Kamado is characterized by his height and strong sense of compassion. After losing nearly his entire family to a demon attack, he resolves to become a demon slayer to protect the innocent and find a cure for his younger sister Nezuko, the only surviving member who has been transformed into a demon.
What drives Tanjiro is not only his determination but also his deeply human qualities: he never turns a blind eye to suffering, always striving to empathize before taking action. His compassionate heart, combined with unwavering resolve, makes him a beloved central character.
