Profile

Appearance

Out of every character of in the show she has gone through the most change. Though she has kept the same long white shirt, pink dress, a pink bow and cat like eyes.

In the first series she has short brown hair. In the second series she looks the same except she has a pink bow. In the third series she has a little longer hair and a darker pink bow. In the forth series she has purple hair. In the fifth series she has red hair and her facial features are a little more human like.

About

A normally-quiet yōkai girl, who transforms into a frightening cat monster with fangs and feline eyes when she is angry or hungry for fish. Predictably, she does not get along well with Nezumi-Otoko. She harbors a crush on Kitarō, who sees her only as a friend. In recent iterations (possibly due to the recent anime phenomenon of fanservice), she is very fond of human fashion and is seen in different outfits and uniforms.
