How to Get Tanjiro in Verse Piece

To unlock Tanjiro, you’ll first need to craft the Nichirin Sword, a key item required for his questline.

Steps to Craft the Nichirin Sword:

1. Go to Blacksmith Island. You can find the blacksmith NPC there, who handles weapon crafting.
2. Collect Scarlet Ore. This rare material is only obtainable through mining. Equip Drilling Artifacts to boost your mining efficiency.
3. Craft the Nichirin Sword. Once you’ve gathered enough Scarlet Ore, talk to the blacksmith to forge the sword. You can enhance or bless it if you want, though it’s optional.

After you’ve got your Nichirin Sword, look for the Tanjiro NPC behind the blacksmith area. Strangely labeled as “Tanjiro’s Dad,” this NPC is actually Tanjiro himself.

Tanjiro Questline:

• Defeat 350 demons using your Nichirin Sword.
• Once complete, you’ll earn the Hanafuda Earrings and the Tanjiro Sword as rewards.

When you activate Tanjiro’s mode, you’ll unlock five Water Breathing techniques. Pressing the Y key enables Hinokami Kagura Mode, which gives access to five Sun Breathing moves—a total of ten powerful attacks with distinct animations and visual effects.

How to Find and Unlock Akaza

Akaza can only be found in the new Infinity Castle dungeon, a major new feature in this update.

Steps to Find the Infinity Castle:

1. The Infinity Castle appears randomly across four possible map locations.
2. When it spawns, head there immediately—it disappears quickly.
3. Inside, fight through waves of demons until you reach Wave 15.

On Wave 15, you’ll face Akaza as the main boss. The fight is challenging but worth it for the exclusive rewards.

Akaza Boss Rewards:

• Akaza’s Compass Rose (used to unlock Akaza’s spec)
• Muzan’s Blood (used for crafting or trading)

After defeating Akaza, a new Night Man NPC will appear in the Infinity Castle. He acts as a shop exchange, selling items like Muzan’s Gift and other exclusive materials.

To unlock Akaza fully, you must:

1. Use Muzan’s Gift first.
2. Then use Akaza’s Compass Rose.

Once activated, you’ll gain access to Akaza’s fighting style and abilities.

Akaza has five unique abilities, focusing on close combat and explosive energy strikes. His move set is fast-paced, with clean animations and a signature Compass Needle ability that guides your attacks. It’s designed for aggressive players who like fast combos and high mobility in battle.

The Tanjiro and Akaza update is a major step forward for Verse Piece. With two iconic Demon Slayer characters, new weapons, and the addition of the Infinity Castle dungeon, the game’s replay value has skyrocketed.

Combine that with the convenience of the Trait Filter, and this is one of the most exciting updates the game has received so far. Whether you’re hunting for Akaza’s Compass Rose or perfecting Tanjiro’s Sun Breathing, this update offers plenty of new content to explore So grab your Nichirin Sword, prepare your drills, and dive into the Infinity Castle before it vanishes.
