Demon Slayer: Tanjiro’s scar explained

Since the start of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba, Tanjiro Kamado’s scar has been a perplexing and alluring motif. The scar, which appears on the top right of Tanjiro’s head, was once believed to be a result of saving his brother from a falling kettle of boiling water. But then, after being smashed into a tree by the Hand Demon in Episode 4, the mask he wears at that time also smashes into pieces against his head; making the scar worse as it inflicts deep wounds on the area. 

After suffering the blow directly where his scar is located, Tanjiro’s head is bloodied or bandaged for the next several episodes. However, when he eventually takes the bandages off, the scar’s appearance is entirely different and now in the form of a jagged, dark red line.
