**Touma Kamiyama** is a major supporting characters of ***Meiyo no Yaiba : Blade of Honor***

He is a Demon Slayer of the Demon Slayer Corps and he is the current ***Flame Hashira***

## Appearance

Touma is a tall young man of a muscular stature and pale complexion, who is almost always seen wearing an unimpressed or emotionless expression. His bangs fall over his eyes in an uneven fringe. His eyes are sharp and moderately large, their irises a pink red that fades to and their pupils white, and are framed by thin eyebrows.

Touma wears a dark cyan-tinted version of the standard Demon Slayer uniform with buttoned white leg-wrapped kyahan and a pair of white zōri with dark blue straps, the socks underneath the same cyan color as his uniform. Over this, Touma wears a haori that's split down the middle into two different patterns: the right one a solid red and white, and the left one a crimson. These haoris were later noted to have belonged to his late older sister, Fuyumi Kamiyama, and his deceased friend Kento.

## Personality

Touma appears to have a complex with what others think of him and is shocked when Mitsuba Shirogane claims he is hated by many. Besides that however, he doesn't seem to be hurt by Mitsuba’s other pokes, even ignoring her. Despite that, they are in fact decent friends with a good amount of history together. He is a man of very few words and has trouble interacting with others, so he usually keeps himself at a distance. He even goes out of his way to tell Hakai that he hates talking, and wants to keep his name to himself, as he thinks names are not meant to be shared, especially to demons. It is revealed later on that Touma suffers from an inferiority complex which he developed since his participation in the Final Selection. It gets severe to the point where he contemplates abandoning his position as the Flame Hashira until Tatsuma helps him realize that instead of acting on his survivor's guilt, he should cherish his life and live on for the people who sacrificed their lives for him.

## Abilities

**Overall Abilities:** As a Hashira of the Demon Slayer Corps, Touma is a very powerful and skilled swordsman and combatant. He also fought equally against fellow Hashira Arashi in a sparring match. Touma was also shown easily beating dozens of demons equal to that of the Lower Ranks of the 12 Kizuki. Touma is also an incredible teammate able to grasp their intentions and work in tandem with it. During his fight against Hakai, Upper Rank Three, he was able to hold on his own for some time and like Asahi, Hakai is amazed by Touma’s skills to the point that he offers to transform the Hashira into demon, something Hakai only asks of the most worthy of his opponents.

**Immense Speed & Reflexes:** Touma possesses inhuman speed and reflexes, He was also able to keep up with Upper Rank Three, Hakai, who is one of the fastest demons in existence and when he awakened his mark, Yoshimi managed to out-speed him several times and appeared to "teleport" even to Hakai. Yoshimi also managed to evade many of Kyosho’s attacks and negate them with ***Dead Flame***.

**Immense Stamina & Endurance:** Due to extremely harsh training, Touma has attained incredible stamina and endurance. In his Battle Against Hakai, he managed to continue fighting even after sustaining dozens of injuries all over his body, severely weakening him, a feat which pleasantly surprised Hakai. In the Final Battle, Touma managed to hold off Kyosho despite being initially inflicted with his All Extinction.

**Immense Strength:** As a Hashira, Touma has honed his physical strength to superhuman levels. In his Spin-Off, he could break extremely strong ropes tied around his wrists with ease while nonchalantly talking to Mitsuba Shirogane. He could also turn his Nichirin Sword bright red through sheer force with the assistance of Arashi, a feat which requires an absurd amount of grip strength to accomplish.

**Indomitable Will:** Touma possesses an undaunted will and indomitable will, never giving up despite suffering numerous injuries against Abagi, one of the strongest demons in existence and later on the Demon King, Kyosho. Even when losing his arm, he still remained steadfast and managed to play an important role in defeating Kyosho.

### Flame Breathing

A Breathing Style taught to him by the Flame Hashira before him, Daiji Kamijo. Touma has completely mastered this swordsmanship style, to the point that he created an entirely new technique within the Breathing Style and impressed Hakai who had fought Flame Hashira in the past.
