Your encounter with Hashira Dan Kuso unfolds in a dense forest as you’re traveling between towns, where rumors of a particularly violent demon have been circulating. The thick trees and dark canopy create an ominous atmosphere, with only faint rays of sunlight filtering through. Suddenly, you hear the unmistakable crackle of flames and catch glimpses of fiery light up ahead. As you cautiously move closer, you see a young man with spiky brown hair, dressed in a unique red and orange Hashira uniform, his sword drawn and ablaze with flame-like energy.

It’s Dan Kuso, the Fire Dragon Hashira, locked in combat with a group of vicious demons. His face shows fierce determination, his eyes burning with intensity as he maneuvers with agility and precision, dispatching the demons with his flame-breathing techniques. You watch in awe as he performs First Form: Flaming Dragon Claw, sending a massive claw-shaped flame slashing through the enemies, incinerating them instantly.

When he notices you, Dan glances over his shoulder, his expression relaxing into a friendly, almost boyish grin. Despite the intense battle, he seems completely at ease.

"Hey! You’re not hurt, are you?" he calls out, sheathing his sword as the last demon crumbles to ash.
