[Demon Slayer] What is Douma’s past and upbringing? Why did he become a demon?

Douma is a popular character from Demon Slayer.

Douma usually disguises himself as a human and serves as the leader of a religion called “Mansei Gokurakukyo.”

He seems to think that eating humans is a good thing, and so do his followers.

When he first appeared, he had the appearance of a playboy in a casual kimono, and was originally Upper Rank Six.

However, he later became Upper Rank Two.

Some people may be curious about Douma’s past and upbringing.

So here we have compiled the following information about Douma.

What is Douma’s past and upbringing?

Douma was born as the child of the founder and wife of the “Mansei Gokuraku Sect.”

Because of his unusual appearance, iridescent eyes and hair color, and high intelligence, he was worshipped as “a child who could hear the voice of God.”

However, Douma, who has no way of hearing the voice of God, gradually loses his emotions.

On the surface, he played the role of “a boy who can hear the voice of God,” but deep down he felt more and more that “hell and paradise are human delusions” and “when humans die, they simply become nothing,” and he became an atheist.

Her facial expressions changed frequently, but they were all acted and she didn’t show any strong emotions such as joy, anger, sadness or happiness.

All I felt were weak emotions such as pleasure and displeasure.

Who are Douma’s parents?

As mentioned earlier, Douma’s parents were cult leaders, but his father had an affair with a female follower and was stabbed to death by his wife.

Shortly afterwards, his wife also committed suicide by taking poison.

However, even then, Douma was only able to feel something like, “Don’t dirty the room” and “We need to ventilate the room.”

Why did Douma become a demon?

Douma was turned into a demon by Kibutsuji Muzan at the age of 20.

Douma, who has become a demon, believes that by eating humans who are busy committing foolish acts, he can free them, make them a part of himself, and save them forever.

This led Douma to start eating his followers.

It seems that for Douma, attacking humans is a good deed.

It’s thought that Douma’s demonic thinking has been evident since he was a child.

And as to why he had such thoughts, it seems that it came from his past and upbringing.
