No, no, not Genya! Luckily, Genya is still alive in 'Demon Slayer'.

Yet he has a hard spirit, and a tough resolve. Well, let me rephrase that question.

Genya Shinazugawa dies during the climactic battle against Upper Rank One demon, Kokushibo, in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. Despite not being able to use Breathing Techniques, Genya proves his worth through sheer determination and a unique ability to gain demonic powers by consuming demon flesh.

In the fight, Genya is severely wounded—eventually cut in half at the waist by Kokushibo. Refusing to give up, he pushes his body beyond human limits, consuming part of Kokushibo’s hair and a fragment of his sword to temporarily boost his strength and help his comrades—Sanemi (his brother), Muichiro, and Gyomei.

Though his actions play a vital role in weakening Kokushibo, the damage to Genya’s body is irreversible. Because he gained his powers by consuming demon parts and not becoming a full demon himself, he cannot regenerate. His body begins to disintegrate into ash, a fate reserved for those who borrow demonic power without full transformation.

Genya’s final moments are deeply emotional. He reconciles with his older brother Sanemi, asking him to live a fulfilling life. His death marks a pivotal emotional and narrative moment in the series, underscoring themes of sacrifice, brotherhood, and redemption.
