From swords to guns: Demon Slayers get an arsenal upgrade

The use of guns in Demon Slayers is not entirely new, but it has not been the primary weapon of the Demon Slayers. The swords, which are designed specifically to fight demons, have always been the weapon of choice for the Demon Slayers. However, with the introduction of Genya and his specially crafted guns, the Demon Slayers have a new weapon in their arsenal.

Genya's gun takes the spotlight in Demon Slayer's latest episode

Genya’s ability to consume the flesh of demons and temporarily gain their powers is fascinating, but it is his gun that steals the show in the recent episode. The bullets infused with Genya’s blood create a powerful spell that weakens demons for a time and hinders their regeneration abilities. This is a significant advantage when fighting against the Upper Moon Rank demons, which are some of the most powerful demons in the series.
