Japanese anime fashion brand Mayla has repeatedly wowed us with their high-heeled shoes for fans of series like ‘Sailor Moon’ and ‘Cardcaptor Sakura’. But today we’re looking at a line that literally aims higher, with Mayla’s beautiful line of “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” hair accessories.
There are a total of seven designs in the collection, one inspired by protagonist Tanjiro (pictured above) and six by the elite Hashira members of the Demon Slayer Corps.

▼ Kyojuro Rengoku and Tengen Uzui
▼ Muichiro Tokito and Mitsuri Kanroji
Officially they’re called the Mayla Kimetsu no Yaiba Iconique Hair Object + Kanzashi, which is an undeniably flowery bit of nomenclature, but pretty much in keeping with Mayla’s penchant for elaborate elegance. The long name is also justified by how versatile these things are. They can be used as hair clips or as kanzashi (Japanese style straight hairpins), as they are equipped with the right parts for both.

Mayla once again demonstrates their skill in combining design elements that are clearly visible to fans of the anime source material, yet with enough subtlety that the items still function primarily as fashionable accessories. Although the seven designs all share a similar style and construction, each design utilizes the representative character’s image color and different costume fabric patterns.
If you look closely, you’ll also see that dangling from the center of each ribbon is an amulet shaped like the handguard of that character’s Nichirin Sword handguard.
And yes, even the box they come in looks cool.
The Mayla Kimetsu no Yaiba Iconique Hair Object + Kanzashi costs 7,920 yen and is available for purchase through the Mayla online shop until July 10 at noon here.
