Zenitsu Agatsuma debuted in Koyoharu Gotouge's Demon Slayer manga before the 2019 anime adaptation made his voice and mannerisms widely known. A cowardly Demon Slayer Corps member who sleeps into his true Thunder Breathing strength, he became a favourite for clips that isolate his panic, shouting and sudden competence. Fans share those moments on soundboards and in short edits because the performance is recognisable in seconds, even for viewers who only know the character through memes and social media reposts.
