Jigoro is Zenitsu’s teacher and was the former Thunder Hashira. He was a very strong Hashira and taught thunder breathing style to both Zenitsu as well as Kaigaku. He took down many demons and protected many civilians, but he had to leave his post after he lost his leg in battle. Ever since then, he became a teacher. Jigoro however committed seppuku, which was an honorable death because he unknowingly taught a breathing style to a student that became a demon. This makes him one of the most powerful Hashira who left the corps.

Shinjuro is Kyojuro Rengoku‘s father. He is also a user of the flame-breathing style, but he considers this style to be inferior. Shinjuro was aware of the sun-breathing style and always considered flame breathing style to be a mere imitation of it. In addition to the inferiority complex, Shinjuro also turned to alcohol after his wife died. He was still a Hashira when this happened and due to his grief and inebriation, he let his emotions get the best of him in many situations. That is why he stepped down. This makes him one of the most powerful Hashira who left the corps.

Urokodaki Sakonji is Tanjiro and Giyuu’s teacher. He is a user of the water breathing style and taught this form to multiple pupils. Almost all the Hashira as well as the members of the corps are aware of his feats and his bravery. He killed many demons and saved even more people. However, he decided to quit being a Hashira to teach and pass on the knowledge of the water-breathing style to his students.

Tengen Uzui is the flashiest of the Hashira. He is a user of the sound-breathing style. Tengen is one of the current Hashira and he left the corps soon after the entertainment district arc. Uzui managed to defeat Daki and Gyutaro, but he, unfortunately, lost his eye and left arm and got poisoned. Whilst Nezuko healed the poison, Uzui was still left disabled. As a result of his disability and inability to fight at his full potential, he left the demon slayer corps. This makes him one of the most powerful Hashira who left the corps.
