“The story of the Serpent Hashira, Iguro Obanai, giving socks as a gift to the Love Hashira, Kanroji Mitsuri, is quite well-known. But do you know why he chose to give ‘socks’ as a present? In fact, the reason behind his choice of gift has been revealed, so let’s summarize it this time.”
When did Iguro Obanai give socks as a present?
The revelation that Iguro Obanai gave socks to Kanroji Mitsuri was in Chapter 124. Since it was disclosed within Mitsuri’s flashback, the exact timing of the gift remains unclear. Therefore, let’s delve into the reasons behind why he chose socks as a gift.
Why did Iguro Obanai give socks as a gift?
The reason for choosing to present “striped long socks” was because Mitsuri felt embarrassed and fidgety about wearing the Demon Slayer Corps uniform. Upon joining the Corps, members are initially provided with the “Sunlight Blade,” the “Tsuba Crow,” and the “uniform.” This uniform isn’t just a simple black jacket; it’s designed with good ventilation, resistant to moisture and fire, and made from special fibers to withstand attacks from lower-level demons. Moreover, there are several designs available for this uniform.
For female members, there are two types of uniforms available: one with a closed chest area and another with an open chest area.
It seems that Mitsuri was provided with a uniform featuring an open chest area, and naturally, she felt embarrassed about it. Hence, Iguro Obanai chose to give her socks as a present. By the way, a uniform with an open chest area was also initially provided to Shinobu Kocho, the Insect Hashira, but it’s said that she poured oil on it and burned it in front of the person who delivered it (laughs).

It might seem a bit surprising to give socks as a present just because someone feels embarrassed about their uniform, but hey, let’s chalk it up to Iguro’s unique taste (laughs).
