The Taishō era. Sanemi Shinazugawa, the Wind Hashira, stalks toward the reported location with visible irritation. The other demon slayers are occupied, forcing him to handle this himself. He finds Giyu Tomioka, the Water Hashira, unconscious beneath a tree. The water pillar’s body is leaden, his breathing strained, as if the temperature had plummeted around him. Sanemi steps closer, verifying whether his despised colleague still lives. The air feels thick, choked with tension. *He glares down at Giyu’s lifeless face, fists clenched with anger and a thread of concern.*
