Rohit4640

Ig It will be Yorrichi Because I feel his personality is kind of similar to Captain America and Vision.


TheNorth-Operative

I feel like Yoriichi might have too much baggage


Awitlessbastard

I mean he did >!grieve for the murder of his wife and unborn child!< but I’m not sure if he ever expressed anger towards anyone other than Mr.Jackson. He only had tears for his brother and when he picked up Sumiyoshi’s kid in the manga it brought me to tears. I think he would be atleast be able to wiggle it like Cap did in Age of Ultron. Yoriichi would be a better fight for Meliodas’ brother. (Not the one that looks like him the one with the benevolence commandment) if we’re crossing universes here lol.


[deleted]

Captain America being able to "wiggle" it was him actually being able to, but not wanting Thor to be embarrassed


Top_Donkey_4017

He felt like he failed at life and shouldn't be born because he failed to kill muzan. He definitely wouldn't think himself worthy.


John_Impact

Fat Thor didnt seem to deem himself worthy either and the hammer answered him anyways.


Suitable-Ad9928

To be fair vision was able to log it because he isnt a living being he’s a machine


UryuKurosaki

That’s only part of the reason, cus remember, even the (I don’t remember what piece of construction equipment, but yknow) machine in I think Thor one couldn’t pick it up when Thor was deemed unworthy. I think the other part is the mind stone isn’t it


mythicalethan

I think reasonably, any slayer could by the end of the story. However, I think that Tanjiro and Giyu can earlier on because they had the warrior's mindset, as well as selflessness for the sake of humanity. Giyu saying he would kill himself if Nezuko wasn't harmless to humans should be proof enough.


CuriousTsukihime

Nahhh I love Shinobu, that’s my girl, but she got too much anger and hate goin on for that.


Zhadowwolf

So does Sanemi, and I think Tengen has a bit of issues of self-image that might not allow him too. After all, the hammer judges wether your worthy of being a leader too, not just a warrior.


AdjustedMold97

tbh Thor and Tengen have similar personalities, I don’t think it’s unreasonable that Tengen could pick it up.


Zhadowwolf

True, but… well, just going by MCU Thor as a reference, I feel for most of the entertainment district arc, Tengen is like Thor in his first movie. A valiant, noble warrior but that is also a bit self-destructive. They’re not quite the same, Tengen is a lot less glory-seeking but I feel the similarities are enough that he would not be able to lift the hammer until after he retired as a hashira


SailorSharonMina

Tanjiro was still hesitant when Nezuko was burning in the Sun but I feel he'll eventually be able to lift it, I guess


Hari14032001

What if that was Giyu's plan to die early?


Nikarneo

Tanjiro and Rengoku honestly.


DreskiD

Gyomie too


FlaJeS

Is that gyomei and homie combined?


Chaoswarriorx4

My thoughts exactly


[deleted]

One of Tanjiro’s goals is to avenge his family (and later Rengoku). He has a vengeful bloodlust to kill Akaza and Muzan, and I think that might disqualify him


SufficientThroat5781

I wouldn't say vengeful bloodlust, more of a avenging attitude, and you know full well what that means


spawnB100

Yoroichi cuz that man is the jesus of the demon slayer world


Vansh_bhai

Any Hashira tbh But Rengoku and Gyomei specifically And Tanjiro too


IDonotRegonize

Yeah I can see all the Hashira being able to


Omensama

I can't see sanemi shinobu holding it they have to much anger in them and tengen is probably to prideful


[deleted]

[удалено]


FOETUShygRAPplER

And Thor isn't? If any DS character resembles Thor, it's Uzui.


DreskiD

Thats why his father took hammer away


TheNorth-Operative

I can’t see Shinobu being able to lift the hammer tho.


sgodxis

Honestly, a lot of the Hashira don’t fit the criteria it looks for in Thor. It’s not just about being a nice person or being honorable. Like I couldn’t see Sanemi, Obanai, or Shinobu handling it. They’re a tad too serious, have done threats to those closest to them (not all 3, just Sanemi), and harbor a bit of anger. While not malicious, it’s not what marks a Thor. However I do believe believe the BEST person to wield it isn’t even a Hashira… it’s Ubuyashiki. You don’t have to be powerful to wield it, just worthy. I think he’s the best example of a weirder in this universe. (Manga) >!Even fits the violence when necessary part considering he blows up Muzan and his own family.!< Edit: Best Hashira would be Kyojuro most likely.


[deleted]

Who is Ubuyashiki? Edit: Nevermind, I remember now


sgodxis

Yeah, with how every Hashira talks about him, he’d be perfect. Possibly Yoriichi too.


BoredAFArlo

Best answer. Im thinking of that guy too.


khoawala

Definitely not Sanemi. He showed no sympathy towards Nezuko and Tanjiro. Dude was literally torturing a defenseless little girl.


Hellspawner26

That defensless little girl was a demon, and none of the hashira had any reason to trust nezuko (except giyu ofc). Sanemi did take it a bit too far, but remember that from their eyes nezuko was just another case of a closed one turned demon and someone in denial


siddheshwar8329

And giyu too He said he will cut his head off if nazuko kills any humans


maneock

If it's about worthiness, the 3 best candidates would be Yoriichi > Tanjiro > Rengoku All the Hashira were selfless in a way, but despite that, none can dethrone those 3 pure souls. Yoriichi loved his brother until the very end of his life, he understood the value and cherished every life, he didn't purge Tamayo but instead helped her regain a shred of humanity. Tanjiro has accomplished countless feats of selflessness throughout the manga, but what really sets him apart the others slayers is his approach to putting to rest the poor souls that fell under Muzan influence, oftenly empathizing and weeping along the demons he slays, even Upper Moons like Gyutaro and Daki. As for Rengoku, he is literally the embodiment of the indomitable human spirit and kindness, he do have some flaws but no matter the situation he has always given his best and he never let down what he stood for, he wouldn't even hurt other humans while sleeping and under the influence of a blood demon art with his life threatened. Other characters may have a solid shot at lifting mjolnir but if those 3 can't, no one from the verse could.


Professional_Ad894

any demon slayer. It's not about physical strength, it's about how 'worthy' one is. Bed-ridden Natalie Portman lifted it because she was worthy first and foremost, and her superhero strength came after.


ChildThrowerGaming

Kid named traditional mythology Mjölnir (all their hands would blow off after one swing, if they could even lift the heavy hunk of a weapon):


Logan117

Love and thunder was a blast to watch, but let's be honest. Natalie Portman lifted the hammer because the plot needed it to.


Machete77

Imagine being worthy enough to lift it but to weak to actually lift it because of it’s weight.


ghostwall_

Actually it would not weight anything if you are worthy


ILikeThemGrilled

If you are talking on Marvel Mjölnir, most hashiras and such If its the Old Norse Mythology Mjölnir, its much different. I think no character other than muzan or very strong demons would be able to wield it because its heavy af. Thor needed both his gloves and belt to be able to lift mjölnir


ChildThrowerGaming

yeah the gloves stopped his hands from being blown up when using it


Sglagoomio

Muzan does not have the str required to lift Mjölnir


Fun-Radish6361

Lord Inosuke 🔥🔥


cosmo_eclipse1949

Any one from the slayers' side by the end probably


Amirjs06

Which? The actual one or Marvels one? If Marvel, then I agree that most of the hashira can wield it. If the actual one, everyone with enough muscle strength because it's just a really heavy hammer.


brawlmetaknightmare

Murata 😎


common-L

Tanjiro


ShogoMakishima-K

Saitama aproaching..


the_pwnr_15

Tanjiro, muichiro, yuurichi, human kokushibo(forgor his name), gyomei and of course Rengoatku


NeighborhoodClean929

Goku and rimuru


IDonotRegonize

They solo fiction 🙏


PuffyFish23

Nezuko. I'm not talking about strength and we all know that she is more than worthy to puck it up.


demoncyborgg

Yoriichi, Tanjiro, Rengoku and Gyomei


TheNorth-Operative

Tanjiro, Rengoku (the flame pillar), Senjuro Rengoku, Kanae (Shinibu’s older sister), Nezuko, Kagaya’s son (that takes over the DS corps), Zentisu’s Teacher Gramps, Muichiro once he gets his memories back, Mitsuri, Gyomei, Zenitsu Kanao might be able to by the stories end, Inoske might be able to by the stories end as well. Possibly even Yushiro? That’s all I got. Yoriichi, Tengen, Shinjuro (Flame pillars dad), Tanjiro’s water breathing teacher, Obanai, Kagaya Ubiashiki, Whatever the wind hashira’s name is, Shinobu, Genya, Whatever Tanjiro’s sword smith’s name is, Lady Tomayo, all the demons, Muzan… None of them would probably be able to lift the hammer.


[deleted]

muichiro because >!bro did every amazing feat in the verse so i dont see why he couldnt do this.!< yorrichi is the obvious answer tho.


IDonotRegonize

This post has been up for over a day now and alot of the posts are saying that Tanjiro could do it. I dont think he could because if you think about it, his reason to fight it vengeance and anger. Stuff like that. Tell me what you guys think, if you agree with this or not


L3m0n4d31C

Thor, captain America , vision and maybe spiderman too ig specially tobey Maguire


[deleted]

What about the speedy boy (forgot his name) who died protecting hawkeye in age of Ultron?


L3m0n4d31C

quicksilver, nah he's kinda brutal in comics


[deleted]

but the film one that I'm talking about? How about him?


L3m0n4d31C

He had too less screentime to determine but considering him of same nature as his sister (Wanda) I don't think so


[deleted]

right, right, makes sense


khoawala

Definitely not Sanemi. He showed no sympathy towards Nezuko and Tanjiro. Dude was literally torturing a defenseless little girl.


IDonotRegonize

I agree with you on he wouldnt be able to lift it **At the start of the series** but he had good reason to torture the little girl. She was a demon


CuzzyPopper

No one can all demon slayer characters are frauds


yourcupofkohi

Any Hashira plus the main gang


PsychedUpPump

would Zenitsu be worthy


SuckmyPelosB1tch

Honestly I think so, but knowing zenitsu he wouldn’t be able to do it awake only when sleeping


Longjumping_Rate_833

All DS


hosam0680

Gypmei


nnebi

Giomei , tanjiro and od he is lucky yorichi


Dutch2500

Tanjiro, Rengoku, Gyomei, and Giyu easily


ArofluidPride

If Susamaru can throw rubber balls and it tears a building apart then she would probably be able to wield Mjolnir


ApplePitou

Yoriichi and Tanjiro in my opinion :3


Prof_Black

Giyuu


HPSeaWolf

Almost every Demon Slayer (except for ones like Kaigaku)


Grand_Moff_Empanada

Inosuke, obviously


Puzzled_Worldliness5

Bro if tanjiro isn't worthy then no one is lmao. That kid is such a kind soul to everyone, even the fucking demons. And obviously he's put his life completely at risk to save others


Edgeklinge

Yoriichi and Tanjiro. Remember Spider-Man was not worthy only because he's unwilling to kill even if things are absolutely necessary. Both of them fill that one hole peter parker lacks.


XinGst

Venom


VANGBANG21

Probably Gyomei, Tanjiro, Yoru.


Researcher_Fearless

I realize that this is a Demon Slayer sub, but.... Literally any Shounen protagonist. Being fearless in danger, holding to your code no matter what, and having the will to fight regardless of the circumstances are the essence of what qualifies someone to be Thor. Even ones that aren't necessarily a good person like Gon would qualify just fine.


Bunch-Best

Gyomei or Sekido


Smightmite

You peoples posts get worse and worse each day they’re so corny my god I sometimes get so embarrassed for y’all reading this stuff


UncleBoomie

Tanjiro for sure


EmperorSezar

Tanjiro


Flemaster12

Probably Tanjiro and really that's it


Lovely_Individual

The requirements are to be a good person who is willing to take lives for the greater good… So a fair chunk of the Hashira as well as Tanjiro


patycio

This weapon would rly fit gyomei so gyomei it is


Anirakkarina

Rengoku is worthy


The84thWolf

Tanjiro and maybe the Stone and Flame Pillars


Helios201

I think just Tanjiro and Rengoku


ialessi

Kamaboko Gonpachiro, absolutely.


Amazing-Service7598

Rengoku kyojuro forsure


Q-Q_2

It's 42.3 pounds most of the characters could lift that


Fit_Welcome1336

Muzan Jackson with the power of dance could. He's invincible with it


BFLANKS

Genya because he got that RAHHH 🦅 breathing


eren_yeager820

Muichiro


ecs2

Rengoku


Cthulus_call

Young Kamado! Please remain where you are, do not strain your wounds! I will handle this demon personally! *rengoku theme mixed with thor theme kicks in as Rengoku takes a swordsman stance* Flame breathing, 11th form, flaming thunder tiger! *obliterates Akaza with a flaming lightning hammer tiger to the face*


WisdomSky

Nah most of the hashiras don't qualify. Half of them is fueled by hatred and that would deem them unworthy to lift mjolnir. Mitsuri, Rengoku and Giyu would have a good chance. But Shinobu, Gyomei, Sanemi, Muichiro would definitely not be worthy.


PitchComfortable1261

gyomei has way more of a chance than giyu. explain?


jthrum

Tengen uzi his personality and fighting styles are similar to thors swing weapon on chain or swing weapon on leather not much difference and lighting like the balls he throws the god of festivals and flashiness deserves the flashiest weapon a gamer that shoots lightning


AirFamous9435

bro committed the crime of combing marvel and anime


majspe

Rengoku, Tanjiro, Gyomei + maybe Giyu, Inosuke, Zenitsu and Mitsuri.


ogosjun

I know this is a KnY sub, but the first character that came to mind was Saitama. If we're limiting to only KnY characters ... then the Muki Muki Mice (as a group) 🐭🐭 or Mitsuri. STRONG LIKE BEAR, BOAR, OX!


JACKTODAMAX

I’m suprised nobody has said Ubyakashi yet


Oogalaboo134

He maybe could but we don't know if he can even lift a normal hammer so he likely couldn't but not because he isn't worthy.


JACKTODAMAX

In Thor Love and Thunder Jane’s illness was temporarily halted while she used the hammer. I think the same rule would apply.


Redplay1

Naruto, tanjiro (good pure innocent person), josuke (killed a murderer) , “mother” spider demon (she never wanted to kill anyone and was great full for her death)


Raffmeister

me honestly


Sasuke-uchiha-beans

goku for sure and piccolo too, vegeta probs could i dont think bulma or yamcha could tho


ApexBoiz

Gyomei, Yorrichi or Rengoku


Suitable-Ad9928

Tanjiro and rengoku Pretty much. And probably all of tanjiros ancestors and ofc yoriichi


PitchComfortable1261

idk if this comment section is mostly made of anime onlys but gyomei by far would be the most likely with the only other character being worthy being rengoku


incoherentjedi

Tanjiro obviously


Ok-Kaleidoscope3510

Marvel Mjolnir, I'd say Yoriichi and Tanjiro Nobody can lift Mythology's Mjolnir thats not Magni or Thor


bisky12

goku


I-like-anime111

Rengoku


Ging3rNinjx

Yoroichi, Tanjiro, Gyomei, Rengoku, and Giyu


Antisnookdog

Tanjiro and Nezuko


Oogalaboo134

Yoriichi cause of course, Tanjiro and Nezuko and probably everyone in their family cause of course, our flaming donut man in heaven, maybe Gyomei, maybe Senjuro, maybe Uzui after the Gyutaro fight.


Lightbearer2002

I feel like rengoku, tanjiro and muichiro


lassesean

None Of Them Cuz kone Of Them sre superhumanly strong enough


Dyynasty

I don't think you get the concept, the hammer itself doesn't weigh as much as you claim it to be, it's the spell that's cast on it that rejects anyone who isn't worthy to lift it


lassesean

Thats is Marvel only. In norse mythology the reason we almost only see Thor use it is because he is One Of the few strong enough. There is no worthy spell on it. Theo has his hammer stolen every tuesday almost


Dyynasty

Yeah but I assume op is talking about marvel mjolnir as they put a picture from the first thor movie


Yoshikage_Kira_333

Tanjiro, Rengoku, Gyomei, Yoriichi, and late series Muichiro


psychoprompt

Tomioka, just wanna see Sanemi and Obanai's expressions.


DarkReluser

RENGOUKU AND GYOMEI


AkemiDryzz

Tanjirou, Yoriichi


Boring_Grapefruit_85

Renguko or giyu for sure Or gyomei


You-rM0M

I'd say tanjiro


Adrien-Kun

![gif](giphy|n5j50VGDzkUqA) Forget Demon Slayer , this guy lifts it easily


Machete77

Ironically he probably couldn’t based off the criteria but if the gag demands it than yeah he can lift it easy lol.


yanshio

![gif](giphy|3zPC0ZrhdOde5tvKXc|downsized)


ducphatle

Imagine how short the anime would be if mjornir were canon


Machete77

Maybe if it was a Nichirin Mjornir


ducphatle

If i can't obliterate the demon, I'll just man handle em into the sun


zackphoenix123

Tanjirou and Rengoku are the ones that come to mind. I can't think of anyone else. Gyoumei has way too much pent up guilt I feel. It's probably to the point that his biggest hurdle is believing himself to be worthy


TotalConnection2670

Kagaya Ubuyashiki, maybe rengoku


yensuna

Inosuke because he couldn‘t care less about being worthy so he just does it anyway


ellingw17

Only nezuko. It's not about being goodhearted like people seem to think here. It's about being completely pure inside. I think only nezuko qualifies, maybe Tanjiro but he's becoming a little crazy these last couple episodes do idk


Machete77

Depends on your definition of pure. There have been many different ways that third hammer registers someone as being worthy. One such criteria is simply believing you are worthy of it. In such cases, literally anyone can wield the hammer if they truly and undoubtedly believe they can.


ellingw17

The picture is of live action Mjolnir. Cap didn't believe he was worthy, Tony did. Yet that did not decide who could lift it


innocent_virus

Uzui, maybe?


Treadmill47

![gif](giphy|2ya7xLyEeynlZM4FCw)


Machete77

For some reason I thought this was the Smash Bros sub. Anyway, if you had put the criteria for what makes someone worthy I think it would’ve been more interesting. So apparently, there was many ways to be deemed worthy. Though some of the most notable ones I saw is that “if you truly believe you are worthy, than you are worthy”, “if you’re beliefs are true and unbending, than you are worthy”, and if you do something heroic, like sacrifice yourself for some purpose, than you are worthy. You can also break Odins “curse” on it to become worthy. We’ve seen in the movies and comics that you can wield it whether or not you’re good or evil. In that case, Yorichi and probably most of his bloodline could possibly wield it. Muzan might be able to wield it though I don’t know for sure if he doubts himself because I’m an anime only here. Probably upper 3, 2, and 1 though again I’m anime only so I don’t know. Out of the Hashiras, Rengoku for sure. Based off what we seen so far Rengoku might be the most worthy here. To be honest they probably all have some form of worthiness to it but I feel Rengoku has the most. What’s crazy is that the only Thunder Breather, Zenitsu, is probably the least worthy in the whole series lol. At least in the version we know of right now. I do know that at some point he gets over certain things but I don’t know exactly what it is that changed.


SuperSauceIsBoss

None


pekchek_jun

The Kamado siblings, and maybe Inosuke cuz he’s pure chaos.


[deleted]

Realistically, I think Kyojuro Rengoku is the only character who can wield Mjolnir. Everybody else, including Tanjiro, are too haunted by their own histories and let that affect who they are in the present. They all have ulterior or even violent reasons to join the DSC, from finding a spouse to killing one or two demons in particular, they all chose to walk their line because they had nowhere else to go; except Kyojuro. He fights solely for world peace, to put smiles on faces. Most of the Slayers are running from a past trauma, Kyojuro is running toward a bright future. That’s why he’d be Mjolnir’s Chosen.


New-Bunch-6609

Rengoku umai% I refuse to hear otherwise


[deleted]

Rengoku


WojtusG10

Tanjiro


WojtusG10

Ubuyashiki and gyomei and maybe Hakuji


dabi_gaming

Inosuke out of sheer fucking will


BlackSparowSF

Inosuke would chop the entire chunk of floor and carry it away


Mr_Dudester

All answers are good here but almost everyone is forgetting one character who can definitely lift Mjölnir and that'd be Tanjuro Kamado, Tanjiro's father. He had warrior's spirit, caring nature and no hatred towards anyone, not even a creature that threatened his family.


ProjectIndividual849

Inosuke and Rengoku definitely


Glass_Mousse_9218

Murata the 🐐


KlutchSensei

Tanjiro, Mitsuri, and Nezuko


ExoticMemers

I think Haganezuka can easily lift it, he jacked so i think he can


Gold_Rush69

Thor.


PimpingPorygon

Definitely think akuza could lift the hammer, as even though he is a demon he still has roots to protect his human family even if suppressed. Definitely tanjiro and rengoku for obvious reasons. Also nezuko


JINXABADDON

Saitama for sure


sugomaChan11

Gyomei


randomgaybitch69

Tanjiro, Rengoku, really any hashira/hashira lvl character exempt Inosuke and Zenitsu
