==Terminology==
: Demons are an ancient race of monstrous, supernatural, immortal beings and the main antagonists of Kimetsu no Yaiba. Their diet comprises purely of human flesh and blood, the more humans they eat the stronger they become. All demons originate from the blood of Muzan Kibutsuji, the Demon King. Assimilation of his blood would instantly turn a human into a demon, granting them a plethora of abilities and resistances, such as Accelerated Development, Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Fear Aura, Extrasensory Perception, Enhanced Senses, Immortality (Type. 1, 2, 3), Regeneration (High-Mid to Low-High), Self-Sustenance (Type 3), Body Control, Infinite stamina, Information Sharing/Telepathy, resistance to diseases and extreme pain (in most cases) etc. However, all demons would be under the control of Muzan, with Muzan being able to kill them at any time. The blood of Muzan can also be weaponized by injecting massive amounts of blood, causing cellular destruction after being hit.
*: The Twelve Kizuki is an organization organization of the twelve most powerful demons in existence who are under the direct command of the Muzan himself. It comprises of 12 members ("Demon Moons" in other words), and is split into and , with Lower Moon 6 being the weakest and Upper Moon 1 being the strongest. Compared to normal demons, they possess faster regeneration, are more physically powerful, and have a higher level of body manipulation, being able to create a variety of weapons and clothes out of their flesh and body that are indistinguishable from their normal counterparts. They also possess the ability to share information with those lower ranked than themselves, and can also share their sight with them.
: Total Concentration Breathing is an advanced and esoteric breathing technique where a user inhales the maximum amount of oxygen within a specific breath pattern to raise their physical and mental prowess to their utmost limits, allowing them to fight on par with demons. The buffs gained from this breathing technique include superhuman strength, speed, stamina, endurance, and increased mental capabilities like faster thought process, concentration, and information processing. This technique is also capable of clotting serious wounds and slowing toxin circulation in the bloodstream. Extrasensory perception and muscle control may also be a result of this ability. It also allows its users to resist the transformative properties of Muzan Kibutsuji's demonic blood, which can instantly turn normal humans into demons with a single scratch.
* An extension of Total Concentration Breathing used by more skilled Demon Slayers, like the Pillars and Pillar-level Demon Slayers. This technique requires users to maintain Total Concentration Breathing 24/7, even in their sleep, allowing users to benefit from its effects constantly. Mastering this technique grants an immense buff to one's physical abilities, most notably stamina.
: Breath Styles are swordsmanship styles that makes use of an esoteric breathing technique known as practiced and taught by members of the Demon Slayer Corps and are used in combat by Demon Slayers (later passed on as traditional dances post-time skip). 
All known Breathing Style currently taught within the Demon Slayer Corps are derived from the Breath of the Sun, the first one ever created. The majority of known Breathing Styles mimic a certain element of nature (i.e. flame, water and wind) and replicates it with the user's movements, techniques and abilities. The weapon attacks of Demon Slayers who use Breathing Styles are also longer ranged, possibly due to shockwaves or air pressure generated from their weapon itself when swinging and striking.
New Breathing Styles are always being created to suit a Demon Slayer's combat needs, which results in new weapons being utilized in demon hunting (i.e. flails and whips). Such Breathing Styles embody a bigger variety of concepts, like animals, plants and emotions (i.e. serpents, flowers and love). When utilizing a Breathing Style, users automatically visualize themselves manipulating the subject behind their style, making it seem as if they were using magic, though those that are less apt and proficient in their style will visualize less than one who is.
: Blood Demon Arts are supernatural abilities or attributes possessed by higher-level demons, like members of the Twelve Demon Moons, and are unique to each demon. Demons develop them from Muzan Kibutsuji's supernatural blood present in them after gaining enough strength from consuming enough humans. Hence, all Blood Demon Arts use their own blood as a medium. Unlike Breathing Styles utilized by Demon Slayers, the supernatural effects of Blood Demon Arts are real and vary differently, some more combat orientated than others. 
: The Demon Slayer Mark is a mysterious supernatural marking or tattoo that appears on the bodies of strong Demon Slayers, like the Pillars and Pillar-level Demon Slayers. Once awakened, Demon Slayer Marks instantly grants an immense boost of physical abilities, more so than the effects of Total Concentration Breathing. This allows Pillars to match the strength of Upper Moons, who normally would overwhelm even the strongest Pillars effortlessly. The appearances of Demon Slayer Marks are unique to each Breath Style user. 
*: Demon Slayers that have awakened the Demon Slayer Mark can utilize a special form of ocular extrasensory perception that alters their vision, allowing them to perceive other living beings as if they were transparent, only being able to see the inner workings of their bodies. Most notably, users are able to perceive the flow of blood, breathing, muscular contractions and joint movements of the creature they are looking at. Potentially, one can use the Transparent World's power to see inside an enemy's body as a way to predict and evade their opponent's attacks, as well as to find openings for their own strikes. Additionally, the user is able to perceive the world around them as if it was in slow-motion, thus dramatically increasing their movement speed and reflexes. The Transparent World can also erase one's presence from the battlefield, making their battle spirit, intent or emotions completely indetectable.

==Powers of the Verse ==
In the Kimetsu no Yaiba verse, the weakest human characters and the average demon that can fight would sit around Small Building level (9-A), while low-level Demon Slayers and slightly above average demons reach Building level (8-C) power. The majority of powerful figures, like near Pillar-level characters and the current generation Pillars. Most strong characters in the verse, like marked Pillars and the strongest Upper Moons, are around Building level+ (8-C) to Large Building level (High 8-C).
In terms of speed, the verse's characters are pretty fast. The slowest characters can outspeed the average human, making the weakest characters Superhuman to Transonic. Characters slower than the verse's average can move at Hypersonic+ speeds with High Hypersonic reaction time, while the fastest characters are at least Massively Hypersonic, with many being much faster than characters that move at those speeds. 
In terms of Lifting Strength the verse is decent ranging from Average Human to Class 50
The bulk of Hax abilities are possessed by demons, such as Vector Manipulation, Dream Manipulation, Biological Manipulation, Spatial Manipulation, as well as other normal powers such as Ice Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation, Thread Manipulation, and Blood Manipulation. Demon Slayers don't have much in terms of supernatural abilities, but some do possess powers such as Regeneration Nullification (Up to High-Mid), various Enhanced Senses and Precognition. Both Demon Slayers and demons possess , which is essentially overwhelming aura that induces fear and paralysis into those not resistant to it. Battle Spirit has been used to make the air heavier, cause one to lose the will to fight, or even induce external lacerations and internal bleeding in severe cases. In terms of skills, the characters excel on this front, with high to god tier demons ranging from having over a century to a thousand years of combat experience, and its high to god tier Demon Slayers being able to match and out-skill said demons. Overall, the Kimetsu no Yaiba verse is a well-rounded verse, with its strength consisting of its character's skills and hax or other unorthodox abilities rather than conventional powers and raw stats.
