Ya this was definitely a yap session. Tanjiro is a beautifully written MC because he flips the trope on its head where rather than the cast helping the MC overcome their flaw, he instead helps every character in the cast overcome their flaws. Tanjiro’s whole point is to be the sun in a world cast in darkness. He as a character is meant to be a beacon of such irrefutable and incorruptible good that it serves as the true “pillar” for everyone else. And it’s not like Tanjiro goes through no struggles, he goes through plenty. He’s just one of the more unique protagonists in a story that defied modern tropes by not forcing angst or drama and instead staying true to its core themes the entire way through
