In the Demon Slayer Corps, ranks play a crucial role in determining a member's status, responsibilities, and level of skill. Higher ranks like Hashira (Pillars) are elite Demon Slayers who have demonstrated exceptional abilities and leadership qualities, while lower ranks such as Mizunoto are newer recruits who are still training and gaining experience. Each rank has its own duties and expectations, with higher ranks having more authority and facing more formidable challenges in battling demons. The ranks within the Demon Slayer Corps reflect hierarchy, strength, and the level of contribution of each member to the ongoing fight against demons.
