Shinobu Kocho

==Summary==
 was raised in a loving and caring household until her parents were slaughtered by Demons right before her and her older sister Kanae's eyes. Just when the Demon was about to take the lives of her and her sister as well, they were saved by Gyomei Himejima who slayed the Demon. After this happened, Shinobu and Kanae both promised to become Demon Slayers to protect each other, as well as prevent other people from enduring the same losses they had to experience.
After Kanae who was the Flower Hashira at the time was killed by Doma, Shinobu became the master of the Butterfly Mansion in Kanae's place and eventually became the Insect Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps.

<tabber>
|-|Abilities=
*Superhuman Physical Characteristics
**Body Control & Regeneration (Low - With breathing, one can stop blood hemorrhages)
**Extrasensory Perception (Able to sense the presence of others and malicious intent, this can be used to differentiate humans and demons, determine how strong someone is to a certain extent or detect an enemy in the vicinity, Muzan stated that Hashira could in the Entertainment District right away)
**Acrobatics (Is the swiftest and most agile Hashira)
*Healing (Has high degree of knowledge about medicine and possesses numerous antidotes)

**Sunlight Absorption (The ore of her katana (Scarlet Crimson Ore) absorbs sunlight)
**Statistics Amplification (Breathing Styles increase the strength and speed of humans to match Demons)
**Perception Manipulation (Breathing Style users can create seemingly elemental effects)
**Shockwave Generation (Breathing Techniques allow sword forms to strike from a longer distance, though she has poor compatibility with Flower Breathing and Insect Breathing does not take advantage of this)
*Wisteria Poison:
**Poison Manipulation & Limited Durability Negation against Demons (Shinobu's weapon is a sword used to thrust into an opponent to inject wisteria poison that is highly lethal to demons. Her entire body is also composed of 37 kilograms worth of wisteria poison)
*Rage Power & Awakened Power (Despite being mortally injured with a pierced lung and losing a large amount of blood, stating that she is unable to breathe or stand up, being encouraged by the ghost of her sister alongside her awakened rage allowed her to surpass her limits, leading her to blitz Doma and pierce through his neck)
|-|Resistances=Resistance to:
*Fire Manipulation, Water Manipulation & Heat Manipulation (Demon Slayer Corps Uniforms protect against fire, water and cold)
*Poison Manipulation (Breathing Techniques grant resistance to poison and the ability to slow its circulation. Modified her body to circulate her body weight worth of wisteria poison. Has antidotes against poison)
*Biological Manipulation (Breathing Style Users are resistant to Muzan's blood which can immediately transform normal humans into demons with a scratch, leading them to require a few days to willingly transform. Can resist Muzan's injected blood which rapidly attacks and destroys cells leading to quick melting and vaporization)
*Pain Manipulation (Was able to fight with extremely severe injuries, with Doma stating that merely standing up with these injuries shouldn't be possible for a human)
*Fear Manipulation & Paralysis Inducement (As a Hashira, she should like Giyu be unaffected by the aura of Lower and Upper Rank like Rui. Rui's aura was implied to be similar to Shinobu's, which caused intense shuddering and lack of air)
</tabber>
Attack Potency: Building level+ (Stated to have the strongest pushing and thrusting attack among the Demon Slayers which would make her thrusting attacks stronger than Giyu's), can ignore conventional durability against Demons using her poison
Speed: Massively Hypersonic (Comparable to, if not superior to Zenitsu)
Lifting Strength: Superhuman (Shinobu is the weakest Hashira physically and is very small, she stated that she's the only Hashira that can't cut off demon's neck, despite this she should be stronger than the average Demon Slayer)
Striking Strength: Building level+
Durability: Building level+ (Should be somewhat comparable to her attack potency, though she was almost killed by casual attacks from Doma too fast for her to see)
Stamina: Superhuman (Can fight for extended periods of time without any visible signs of tiring) (Hashira can train for months through training that almost puts them on the verge of death) (Unleashed an attack faster than Doma can react despite being severely injured and her lung undergoing necrosis) (Comparable to fellow Hashira who fought Lower Rank-level Demons in the Infinity Castle for nearly 5 hours on top of fighting Upper Ranks)
Range: Extended Melee Range with Nichirin, Several Meters with Breathing Techniques
Standard Equipment: Stinger Nichirin Katana (A blade made from metals that absorbed the light of the sun, they cause demons to completely disintegrate if they are decapitated with them, as they are weak to sunlight, which in the case of demons which have assumed a form where they don't have a neck or head in the traditional sense can be done by slicing something that's equivalent enough to the neck, Demon limbs that are sliced off and constructs created through Blood Demon Arts that are bisected through a Nichirin sword are also subject to the disintegration, Stabs and slashes with a Nichirin sword can dispel the effects of Blood Demon Arts and can temporarily weaken a demon's power and abilities if directed at the neck), Sheath (It allows her to change the poison mixture she uses with her sword), Demon Slayer Corps Uniform (Protects from the claws and slashing attacks from weaker demons, and has resistance against fire, water and cold) and poison
Intelligence: Gifted (Is very knowledgeable on poison and healing. Created her own Breathing Style and weapons to make up for her weaknesses. Is experienced in fighting with her weapon and possesses an impressive level of knowledge about the anatomy of human and demon bodies)
Weaknesses: Isn't very strong physically and can be easily restrained by stronger foes. Can only thrust and stab her opponents.
Notable Attacks and Techniques:
*: Using this unique Breathing, Shinobu coats her weapon with poison made from wisteria flowers and changes the mixture and composition of the poisons inside her scabbard.
**: Shinobu jumps toward her opponent and stabs him multiple times with her sword to inject her poison.
**: Shinobu charges at her enemy at an amazing speed and uses the momentum of her speed to then strengthen her single thrust into her opponent to inject lethal poison into them.
**: A six hit attack with which Shinobu aims to stab and inject her target with multiple doses of poison at the targeted Demon's weak spots (neck, heart etc) in order to kill them with a big dose of poison.
**: A technique with which Shinobu uses her full speed to run a zigzag pattern to confuse her opponents in order to create an opening for her to directly thrust her sword into her opponents neck and inject poison into their neck and kill them, with the stab's force being further enhanced by the momentum of her speed. Doma noted that the pure speed of this technique is powerful enough to destroy a whole wooden bridge.
