• Rokuya called up from the pit, then stood unharmed after Mortal Punisher absorbed the lethal damage.

Rokuya survived his fatal plunge, and Yushiro brought the Infinity Castle aboveground, exposing Muzan to the night sky with two hours until sunrise. As Tanjiro held Muzan’s severed head apart from his body, Rokuya spent his remaining Gratitude Points to reset Invincible Might and transformed into the Dawn Guardian.
