Every page is available to download as a PDF or color directly in the browser, with no account or payment required.
Zenitsu Agatsuma is a core member of the Demon Slayer Corps in Koyoharu Gotouge’s Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. He uses Thunder Breathing, fighting exclusively with the First Form: Thunderclap and Flash, the only technique he claims to have mastered.
These pages suit Demon Slayer fans and anyone who wants a character with an unusually wide emotional range across a single set.
The coloring challenge that belongs only to this set: Zenitsu has two visual states, and both are here. Awake, he is pale, terrified, weeping. Asleep or in a battle trance, he fires through lightning with eyes closed. The palette stays the same, but the energy flips completely.

What’s Inside Zenitsu Coloring Pages
The set divides naturally into two visual categories: Zenitsu in his everyday emotional state and Zenitsu in battle.
Awake Zenitsu: Emotional Portraits
The largest group of pages shows Zenitsu conscious: crying, scared, happy, smiling, sad, in love, and angry. These pages capture his most familiar expressions from the series and represent the version of him most new viewers know first.
Coloring awake Zenitsu: Zenitsu has bright golden-yellow hair with darker gold at the tips, which fades to a slightly more orange-gold at the ends. His eyes are large and amber-gold, usually filled with tears or wide with fear. His skin is pale and warm. His haori is a yellow-and-black gradient pattern: the top is a warm golden yellow fading into dark charcoal or black toward the hem. This gradient is the most technically interesting coloring element in the set: worked smoothly from golden yellow through orange-yellow and deep ochre into near-black, it gives the haori its distinctive look. On emotional pages, the haori’s soft gradient contrasts with his expressive face to create the character’s signature look.
Battle Zenitsu: Thunder Breathing
Several pages show Zenitsu in his battle state: the action and power pages, Bushido Zenitsu, and the sword-holding pages. These are completely different from the emotional portraits.
Coloring battle Zenitsu: on action pages, Zenitsu’s yellow hair takes on a higher-contrast treatment. The teal markings that appear on his face during combat are a specific cool teal, distinct from any other color in his palette and from any character in the broader set. His sword, the yellow-bladed Nichirin Sword unique to his Thunder Breathing style, should be a warm, slightly bright golden-yellow rather than a standard steel color. Lightning effects on pages showing Zenitsu’s power are white-yellow, typically rendered as radiating lines or crackling energy. A white center fading outward to bright yellow gives them the most electric quality.
Chibi Zenitsu
The set includes several chibi pages: solo chibi portraits, a chibi face page, and chibi Zenitsu in various emotional states.
Coloring chibi Zenitsu: chibi designs use the same palette as the standard pages but with exaggerated head-to-body ratios and simplified features. The haori gradient still applies, but covers a smaller, rounder form. Chibi pages work well with slightly more saturated colors since the simplified shapes can carry bolder treatment.
Paired and Group Pages
Zenitsu appears alongside Nezuko in two pages, with Inosuke in one page, with a small bird companion in two pages, and in a full Demon Slayer cast group page.
Coloring paired pages: on the Zenitsu and Nezuko page, Nezuko’s pale pink kimono and pink-and-green obi contrast with Zenitsu’s yellow-black haori. On the Inosuke and Zenitsu page, Inosuke’s blue and white provide a cool counterpoint to Zenitsu’s warm yellows. On the group cast page, Zenitsu’s haori gradient is one of the most distinctive design elements in the set and should be treated with care to stand out among the more neutrally colored corps uniforms.
Special Pages
The set includes a high school alternate universe page (Zenitsu as a school student), a Kanata Ubuyashiki character page, and a Zenitsu and girlfriend page.
Coloring special pages: the high school page reimagines Zenitsu in a Japanese school uniform, keeping his signature hair color but placing him in a contemporary school setting. The Kanata Ubuyashiki page depicts a character from the Ubuyashiki family, dressed in traditional robes in soft, restrained tones.
Printable PDF and Online Zenitsu Coloring Pages
All pages are available as printable PDFs or in the online coloring tool. The action and lightning pages reward printing for precise control over the gradient and lightning effects.
What These Pages Do
Zenitsu spends most of the series convinced he is about to die. He cries before every fight. He begs for help. He falls asleep from fear and then, while unconscious, performs feats that the bravest Demon Slayers could not match awake. The series never resolves this contradiction: it is the point. Zenitsu is terrified and extraordinary at the same time.
Coloring both states, which this set makes possible, asks children to hold two things at once: the weeping boy on one page and the lightning-strike fighter on another are the same person, same yellow hair, same haori. That lands quietly through coloring rather than being explained.
The AAP notes that activities that present characters experiencing a full range of emotions, including fear, courage, and vulnerability together, support children’s emotional literacy and their ability to understand that complex feelings can coexist in the same person.
Art therapy practitioners note that coloring a character across radically different emotional and physical states in the same session helps children process the idea that how someone appears in one moment does not define who they are entirely.
How to Color Zenitsu Coloring Pages
The haori gradient is the most important color work in the set. The yellow-to-black transition should be gradual and warm: start with golden yellow at the shoulders, move through orange-yellow and ochre in the mid-section, and end in deep charcoal or near-black at the hem. A hard line between yellow and black, rather than a smooth gradient, loses the signature look entirely.
Keep the teal combat markings cool and distinct. On battle pages, Zenitsu’s teal facial markings are a specific cool teal that contrasts with the warm yellows of everything else on the page. They should not warm up toward green or desaturate toward grey. The contrast between warm yellow and cool teal is what makes the battle design read as intense.
The yellow Nichirin Sword reads warm, not metallic. Zenitsu’s Thunder Breathing-attuned Nichirin Sword is yellow, not silver. It should be warm golden-yellow, slightly lighter than his hair, not the cool grey of a standard sword.
On lightning pages, work light to dark. Start with the brightest white-yellow at the lightning’s center point and work outward to a more saturated yellow at the edges. Adding a faint yellow glow to the background immediately around the lightning amplifies the effect significantly.

Who is Zenitsu Agatsuma?
Zenitsu Agatsuma is a character from Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, the manga series by Koyoharu Gotouge that began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump on February 15, 2016. He is a Demon Slayer Corps member who practices Thunder Breathing. Despite appearing cowardly and panicked in everyday situations, he is capable of extraordinary combat speed and power when fighting in an unconscious state.
What is Zenitsu’s Thunder Breathing?
Thunder Breathing is a Breathing Style that replicates lightning in both speed and power. Zenitsu mastered only one technique, the First Form: Thunderclap and Flash, but has refined it to such an extreme level that it allows him to move at speeds that appear invisible to the human eye. His Nichirin Sword turns yellow in response to his Thunder Breathing style.
Why does Zenitsu only know one technique?
Zenitsu failed to master any technique beyond the First Form during his training under former Thunder Hashira Jigoro Kuwajima. He considered this a failure and a source of ongoing shame. However, his complete mastery of a single technique to an extraordinary level became one of his defining characteristics and, ultimately, one of his greatest strengths.
What is the significance of Zenitsu’s haori pattern?
Zenitsu’s haori features a yellow-to-black gradient pattern that represents his Thunder Breathing style. In the Demon Slayer series, haori patterns are typically associated with a character’s lineage or style. Zenitsu’s gradient haori visually connects him to his thunder-based abilities even when he is not in combat.
Who is Zenitsu’s small bird companion?
Zenitsu’s Kasugai Crow, the messenger bird assigned to Demon Slayer Corps members, is depicted as a small sparrow rather than the standard crow. This was because Jigoro Kuwajima felt a crow was too much for Zenitsu to handle. The sparrow appears on two pages in the set.
Are these official Zenitsu coloring pages?
No. These are fan-made coloring sheets for personal use and are not affiliated with, licensed by, or endorsed by Koyoharu Gotouge, Shueisha, Aniplex, ufotable, or any other rights holder of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.
What age group are these pages best suited for?
Demon Slayer is rated for audiences aged 13 and up due to its action and dark themes. The coloring pages are appropriate for fans of the series from around age 8. Chibi pages work for younger children who enjoy the character designs without needing knowledge of the show.
