Who is Mukago?
Mukago is a character in the anime series Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba), serving as a member of the Twelve Demon Moons with the specific rank of Lower Rank Four. Her appearance is distinct, featuring light gray skin, two dark red stripes on her cheeks, and white horns protruding from her forehead. She possesses gray eyes with white rings, dark red sclera, and the kanji for “Lower Four” inscribed in her left eye. Mukago has chin-length white hair, shorter bangs between her horns, and wears a red kimono with a fur-lined collar, secured with a dark purple bow.
Mukago’s Personality and Background
Mukago, like many demons in the “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” universe, held a deep-seated fear of Muzan Kibutsuji, the progenitor of all demons. This fear was intensified by a profound sense of respect, or more accurately, subservience, towards him—a sentiment common among the members of the Twelve Kizuki.
Notably, among the Lower Ranks of the Twelve Kizuki, Mukago gained a reputation for her cowardice. Muzan, endowed with the ability to read the thoughts of others, discovered that Mukago consistently evaded confrontations with the Hashira, the elite demon slayers of the Demon Slayer Corps. Her preferred strategy upon encountering a Hashira was to flee, a tactic she employed on numerous occasions.
When confronted by Muzan about this knowledge, Mukago’s immediate response was to deny her own thoughts desperately in an attempt to placate him. This denial likely stemmed from an awareness of Muzan’s merciless nature and the severe consequences awaiting those who incurred his displeasure. Her actions underscored the pervasive terror Muzan instilled in his subordinates, revealing the lengths they would go to avoid his wrath.
What is Mukago’s Backstory?
Unfortunately, her past remains shrouded in mystery, with only the knowledge that she was transformed into a demon by Muzan Kibutsuji and has been consuming humans.
Making her sole appearance in Chapter 51, which precedes the Mugen Train arc, Mukago is a demon and serves as the Lower Moon Four of the Twelve Kizuki. In addition, she is recognized as a loyal servant of Muzan Kibutsuji. Mukago was voiced by Kana Ueda in Japanese and Kira Buckland in English.
What was Mukago’s Blood Demon Art?
As for Mukago’s Blood Demon Art, specific details about this ability are scarce. However, it can be inferred that she possessed strength surpassing that of an average demon, given her higher position within the Lower Ranks of the Twelve Kizuki. Mukago’s superior power compared to Kamanue, indicated by her higher Lower Rank position, suggests her capabilities extended beyond those of an ordinary demon.
