Kibutsuji Muzan is one of the most horrific antagonists of all time. He is known as the Demon King inDemon Slayer. His powers know no bounds as he has extraordinary durability, speed, immediate regeneration, etc. Muzan is the reason why demons were born. He transfers his blood into individuals who seem to fit the role of demons, by him.

In this way, he has created several demons. Some are directly created by him, while others are made through blood transfer from other demons. Since Muzan is the creator of the demons, it is natural for him to gain back the powers he gave away to the other demons after their death. But it does not happen inDemon Slayer. Fans have found the perfect theory to sum up the situation.

Buddhism Comes Into Play inDemon Slayer

Kibutsuji Muzan is the progenitor of every demon. The stronger ones received blood from him directly, while the weaker ones often got the blood from the stronger demons. In both cases, the Demon King has access to their memories and actions and can even kill them. On the other hand, these demons can also see Muzan’s memories. The question that remains is whether Muzan gets back his blood after a demon dies.

A newDemon Slayerfan theory has found the perfect answer to that question. The theory answers that when a demon dies, it is shown to have regained its human memories at the last moment and regretted the evil things it did as a demon. While the demon burns into ashes, glimpses of his afterlife are shown, and instead of being a demon, they return to their human form.

It is a direct reference to Buddhism. In Buddhism, there is no concept of hellish punishment. Religion has a hell, but humans go there to burn up their bad karma take their good karma, and enter heaven. In the same way,Demon Slayermight take that perspective and show the demon getting burned down while the good human form leads to a happy afterlife.

Kibutsuji Muzan Might Be At a Disadvantage

The newDemon Slayertheory states that the powers do not return toKibutsuji Muzanafter a demon dies. It gives an edge to the Demon Slayer Corps, who can weaken Muzan by killing more demons. Even a drop of blood from Muzan’s body can make a big difference. If he were to get back the transferred blood, then there would be no chance of victory for the protagonists.

With the upcoming Hashira Training arc, Tanjiro and company will have a great chance of getting stronger. It will help them kill more demons. Killing powerful demons will make the Demon King weaker. Even though he is on a path to create more demons, he will attempt to use more of his blood. It is an advantage as well as a disadvantage for him.

While it remains a fan theory, it holds significant ground. The entry of Buddhism into the theory makes it even better. But until official confirmation, nothing can be said for sure.
