Muichiro Tokito was not an only child. He used to have an older twin brother, Yuichiro Tokito. He shares his physical appearance with his brother, but their personalities were entirely different. After the death of their parents, Yuichiro became closed off and extremely cold. Muichiro wished to be a part of the demon slayer corps, but his brother was entirely against it.
When they were kids, a demon got inside their house and attacked them. Yuichiro lost his arm trying to protect his brother. After witnessing this, Muichiro became extremely angry and attacked the demon with anything that he found. He managed to kill the demon and when he came inside the house, he saw that his brother was praying to god that Muichiro could be saved. Yuichiro ultimately died while holding his brother’s hand. After that day, he harbored a great hatred for demons and vowed to kill them.
After Muichiro was killed in the final battle, he reunited with his brother. His brother cried and yelled at him and asked him to return to the land of the living. He also berated him for dying so soon. This is who Yuichiro Tokito is.
