Any action-packed series would be incomplete without the addition of an elite force of warriors (or sometimes a mentor) to guide the main character through their physical growth. Demon slayer is no exception to this rule. The Hashira are the strongest rank in the Demon Slayers Corps, and for good reason: one of the requirements for becoming a Hashira is killing a member of the Twelve Kizuki, an elite group of demons who serve Muzan Kibutsuji.
Each Hashira has a special fighting style that makes them unique, and they are unabashedly dedicated to bringing down Muzan. Many other series also contain unique and powerful characters dedicated to a good cause, including Final fantasy. Although they do not use any breathing techniques, there are many Final fantasy characters who could be powerful Hashira.
