Vote up the Demon Slayer character heights that feel fitting for the character.

Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba has a roster of powerful demons and demon slayers. With such a fantastical story grounded in fiction, characters can sometimes be taller or shorter than fans are made to believe. 

Here's a list of every major Demon Slayer character's height. Did you know that Gyomei is an absolute beast at 7'2"? This makes him the tallest character in Demon Slayer. Meanwhile, Shinobu's small stature is just under 5 feet, making her one of the shortest Demon Slayer characters.

How tall is Tanjiro, the series protagonist? Tanjiro is actually only 5'5, which definitely puts him on the shorter side of shonen protagonists. This is a reoccurring pattern while looking at Demon Slayer heights, as Zenitsu and Inosuke are even shorter, while Nezuko's real height is actually 5'0 - fitting for a girl described as “smol.”

In keeping with Ranker's ideals of ranking everything, these Demon Slayer character heights are ranked by how fitting they seem for the character. Vote up the heights you feel are appropriate for the character!
