DEMON SLAYER - POP Animation N° 2194 - Rengoku (Sumi-ink)

This collectible vinyl figure represents the character of Kyojuro Rengoku, released by Funko as part of its Pop! Animation collection under official Demon Slayer licence. Made entirely from PVC, this version has a special decorative finish in the traditional ink wash style (Sumi-deco / Sumi-ink).

The plot of the manga and animated adaptation Demon Slayer (Kimetsu no Yaiba), created by Koyoharu Gotouge, revolves around the existence of demon slayers, warriors trained in swordplay and breathing techniques to eliminate nocturnal threats. Kyojuro Rengoku is a major figure holding the rank of Pillar of Flame (Flame Hashira), making him one of the most powerful fencers in the organisation. His main focus is the story arc of Infinity Train, in which he deploys his combat techniques to protect the passengers of a rail convoy infiltrated by demonic forces. The "Sumi-ink" graphic treatment applied to this edition is inspired by the traditional artistic technique of wash painting (Sumi-e), echoing the ink and calligraphy effects that punctuate the series' visual confrontation sequences.
