kuchiha

A swordswoman harboring a Dog God (Inugami) within her, leading to her being shunned by humans. She rescued Tokidoki from a nue. Initially, she detests optimistic and naive individuals like Tokidoki, but gradually warms up to him as the series progresses. She typically sports a long ponytail and has a voracious appetite. Kuchiha and Kon share a love-hate friendship. As a child, her grandfather named her Kuchiha, meaning "faded flowers," hoping she would be the last of the family line. After his death, she struggled to care for herself and lived alone in the shack where she once resided with her grandfather. It was here that she was found by Kanzou, a boy with fang marks on his face. Kuchiha had lost her ability to speak, yet Kanzou understood her and met her needs. One day, he ventured out to find a place suitable for her, instructing her to wait. However, she wandered away from the waiting spot, becoming lost and making it impossible for Kanzou to find her again. She was taken in by the monk Shamon and relearned how to speak. Years later, Kanzou finds her once more, explaining their intertwined destinies: she is the dog god, and he is the destined servant of the dog god, Shirachigo (Gazu Hyakki Yakou). Believing Kanzou had abandoned her, Kuchiha initially refuses to go with him but eventually agrees, leaving Toki with the words: "I'm not like you." Recently in the series, she saves Tokidoki from a vortex by battling a monster and cutting her hair when it got entangled. Rikugou jumps in after her, confessing his love and getting bitten on the neck. Kuchiha remains trapped in the vortex, with a worried Tokidoki and Kanzou watching over her. Her age remains unknown.
