The Hinokami Kagura is a breathing style that is passed down from father to son in each generation of the Kamado family along with the Hanafuda earrings. They use it within a ritual ceremony practiced every new year, where the user of the Breathing Style offers the God of Fire a dance from dusk to dawn to ward off threats and disease. The dance is made up of twelve segments that are repeated at throughout the night until dawn. Tanjuro Kamado noted that the breathing technique used in this dance allows the user to never get exhausted no matter how long they move, thus he can seemingly dance forever. The last user of Hinokami Kagura is Tanjiro Kamado, who learned the breathing style from his father Tanjuro Kamado. Other people can learn this technique if taught by a descendant of Kamado. It is later revealed by Shinjuro Rengoku that the Hinokami Kagura is a legendary breathing style known as hola no kokyū sun breathing, a long-forgotten breathing style and the first to be created. All other breathing styles are derived from it as a result of Yoriichi Tsugikuni, its creator, modifying it to suit the people he taught who were unable to use it.
