Tengen Uzui Wives
You might wonder why we’re talking about 3 Tengen Uzui wives in a post about the anime Demon Slayer. Well, allow us to explain. Tengen Uzui is a character in the show who has – you guessed it – many wives. And we thought it would be interesting to take a look at all of them and see just what kind of ladies would want to marry such a character.
Some of Tengen Uzui’s wives are strong and independent women, while others are more traditional and submissive. But one thing they all have in common is that they love their husband, flaws and all.
There is an uncanny resemblance in the personalities between the Uzui Tengen wives and Tanjiro, Zenitsu, and Inosuke – the apprentice Demon Slayers in the series.
So, without further ado, let’s take a closer look at the many wives of Hashira Tengen Uzui.
You may be wondering who Tengen Uzui is and what he does. Let us fill you in.
The Sound Breathing Hashira Tengen Uzui is a member of the forces of the Demon Slayers and he’s also a bit of a ladies’ man. In fact, he has quite a few wives – all of whom are lovely, talented women.
Each of Tengen’s wives has her own quirks and personality that make her unique. Some are more fan favorites than others, but all are admirable in their own way.
If you’re anything like us, you’re probably wondering just who the hell Hashira Tengen Uzui is and why he has so many damn wives. Lucky for you, we did some digging and discovered everything you need to know about the man and his harem.
Hinatsuru
Hinatsuru is a young woman with violet eyes and long, flowing black hair, and a distinctive beauty mark beneath her left eye. Her figure is slender and curvaceous, and she is often seen wearing a lavender dress with a plunging neckline, paired with brown fishnet socks, light-colored sandals with purple straps, and a red-violet obi. In a flashback, she is also shown wearing fingerless fishnet gloves.
Hinatsuru is kind, calm, and nurturing, much like Tanjiro Kamado. She is able to effortlessly handle the antics of her co-wives and is fiercely strategic and fearless in battle situations. Hinatsuru deeply cares for and loves her husband, Tengen Uzui.
Hinatsuru posed as an oiran to infiltrate a known hideout location for demons and was successful in confirming the information. This led to the big battle between Tengen, Tanjiro, Inosuke, and Zenitsu vs the Upper-Rank Demon Gyutaro and his sister, Daki.
Hinatsuru had her moments when she tried helping out in the battle instead of following Tengen’s orders to leave the area. She effectively aided in some key moments and might even have changed the tides of battle at some point.
Makio
Makio is a young woman with a voluptuous figure and pale skin. She has large golden brown eyes with prominent upper and lower lashes, and thin eyebrows arching downward. Her black hair is tied up with golden-brown bangs that hang loosely and frame her face.
She is usually seen wearing a red, sleeveless striped dress that ends mid-thigh and reveals her cleavage. The dress is secured with a black obi, where Makio stores her kunai. She also has gray-colored bandages wrapped around her calves and up to her thighs and wears a pair of zōri with red straps. In the past, Makio was a captive of Daki and was seen with cuts and bruises all over her body.
Makio has a headstrong personality and is confident and bold in her actions, similar to Inosuke Hashibira. However, she also has a softer side that is revealed when she is dealing with Tengen, her husband. She worries about his declining health following their major battle and clings to him in relief after Nezuko Kamado heals him.
Makio tends to have less patience with her co-wife, Suma and can be seen criticizing her for being condescending. However, she and her co-wives assist Tengen in evacuating the citizens of the Entertainment District and providing first aid after the battle. Once Tengen is healed, they assist him in leaving the battlefield for his recovery.
Suma
Suma is a young woman with shoulder-length black hair, short bangs, and piercing blue eyes. She is petite in stature and has a shapely figure, much like the other wives of Tengen Uzui. She wears a short, black (blue in the anime) sleeveless dress with a plunging neckline that exposes her cleavage, secured with a light-colored obi (gray in the anime) where she probably stores her kunai. She also sports gray ankle-length tabi socks and white zōri sandals with blue straps.
Suma’s personality is particularly similar to Zenitsu Agatsuma’s, as she tends to express overly dramatic and exaggerated emotions in practically every situation. She is fearful and unconfident when faced with dangerous situations, and cries easily, whether due to receiving praise or from fear when being near a demon. She often acts immature, frequently arguing with her two co-wives (especially Makio) and generally irritating them with her fussiness and emotional outbursts.
Hinatsura vs Gyutaro in the Train Arc
What does Tengen Uzui’s wifely entourage have to do with the Tanjiro-and-Gyutaro train showdown? Well, it was actually Tanjiro and Tengen’s combined teamwork that helped bring down the Upper-Rank Demon, Gyutaro. In a well-executed plan involving a makeshift ring of water and fire, Tengen’s reflexes were put to the test. Just as he unleashed a tornado of wind blades – effectively bringing down Gyutaro – he was also poisoned by the enemy, putting his life in danger.
Luckily, one of his wives brought some medicine that saved him right in time. So you could say it was thanks to his wives that Tengen survived this fight unscathed!
