Summary
Demon Slayeris an anime that really captured the imagination of anime fans when itfirst launched in 2019and tells the story of Tanjiro Kamado who, in a bid to get his sister back to being human, goes up against the demons that plague society.
As is typical with shonen anime, this is a show with a lot of battles. There are also a lot of powerful characters in the series, and some have won way more fights against the opponents they have gone up against. Dealing with such a topic means that the winner of the most fights is not necessarily the strongest, but rather simply those who have come out on top in the most battles.

Notable Wins

Kyojuro Rengoku was one of the hashiras introduced inDemon Slayerfrom the very first season, and he was the centerpiece of the highly acclaimedMugen Trainmovie. Rengoku was a character with a sunny personality and was considered one of the strongest hashira.
Mugen Train was the only time fans got to watch him fight, and he did so pretty well, taking downtwo strong demonsbefore his iconic fight against Akaza. This was a battle that brought out the best from both Rengoku and the upper three demon, Akaza. Unfortunately, it was lights out for Rengoku, but he is someone who won most fights that he was in.

One of the unique things aboutDemon Slayeris how it leans into the power of collaboration in its fights. While one-on-one battles abound, there are also very, very many co-op battles, and Nezuko was involved in a lot of them.
Typicallycarried about by her brotherin a little bag on his back, she was involved in a lot of his battles, which he was able to win thanks to her. It was her demon blood art that helped Tanjiro conjure that historic moment against Rui, and she was there to pummel Daki to a pulp while fighting alongside the other demon slayers.
Muichiro is theyoungest of the hashiraand the one Tanjiro really came to know during the Swordsmith village arc — where he was coming to have his sword fixed. Muichiro was a character that received a lot of growth during this arc, and he was also shown to be a fierce fighter.
Muichiro has the remarkable record of cutting down 10,000 slime fish in an instant. If each individual fish was considered a battle, he’d have the highest kill count. But more than that was his battle against Gyokko, which showed the prodigious talent of Muichiro and why he is the mist hashira. He has won just about every battle he has featured in.

Giyu Tomioka was the first character to defeat Tanjiro, and it was an introduction to the audience to the fearful power of the hashira. Giyu Tomioka is the water hashira and one of the more mysterious members of the group. His fighting prowess is peerless, and this was evident when he came to Tanjiro’srescue against Rui.
Giyu is the hashira that first inspires Tanjiro, and with the Infinity Castle arc looming, it will be interesting to see how he gets by. Giyu rarely ever loses fights and usually comes out victorious — with a dead demon in his wake.

There are few characters as bullish as Inosuke Hashibira. He’s loud and proud, but beneath all that is a skilled swordsman who holds his own against the best and can call himself one of the topDemon Slayercharacters. Inosuke also has an amazing hand-to-hand battle with Tanjiro that is one of the highlights of the series.
Inosuke is known for his resilience, as seen in his battle against the horned demon and the spider father from season 1. Inosuke is also one to know when he won’t not be able to defeat a character. He was instrumental in the wins against Daki and Gyutaro and has defeated his fair share of demons.

When Zenitsu was first introduced in theDemon Slayeranime, many saw him as a crybaby who couldn’t hold his own in battle. However, when cornered by a demon in episode 11 of season 1, Zenitsu revealed hisThunder Breathing technique— and in a flash, the fight was over.
Thanks to his incredible technique and lightning-fast speed, Zenitsu has never lost a battle in the main anime series. His unmatched combat ability, which activates when he falls asleep, quickly turned him into a fan favorite.
Tanjiro is acharismatic protagonistthat works really well for the bleak world ofDemon Slayer. His cheerful disposition really helps lift the mood of the show, and it is even better that he is a very competent fighter. Since the story ofDemon Slayerfollows Tanjiro and his sister, Nezuko, he is also the one who gets to fight the most.
Over various fights, Tanjiro has proven himself to be a proficient fighter, with him really coming into his own in the legendary fight against Rui andthe Spider Family. Tanjiro has been involved in all the major fights and has scored several impressive victories. Due to the sheer volume of fights, he has also won the most of all the cast inDemon Slayer.
