RETRO YŌKAI PARADE
Character Design by kiyo木又
Coffy
Nine-Tailed Fox // Bike Gang Leader
Coffy, the nine-tailed fox bike gang leader, is a figure of power and authority. She serves as a mediator and guardian of the yōkai, protecting them from internal conflicts and external threats, thereby ensuring they can revel in nocturnal freedom. Despite the respect she commands, Coffy is surprisingly clumsy—often tripping over her tails or accidentally setting things on fire.
Tea
Kappa // Mechanic
Tea, the Kappa mechanic, handles logistics—tuning engines, fixing rides, and keeping the gears of the Hyakki Yakou turning. Quiet yet meticulous, he is the backbone of the gang and naturally serves as Coffy's right-hand man. Aided by water spirits, he is always ready to clean up after Coffy's accidents and ensure the parade runs in perfect order.
Mi
Yuki-onna // Songstress
Mi, the Yuki-onna songstress, graces Comic Fiesta-dori with an otherworldly presence that could melt even the coldest heart of a yōkai. Unlucky human men, lured by her enchanting voice and appearance, may try to hold her—only to discover that her touch brings not warmth, but a chilling cold that seeps into their bones, turning their life force into icy Michaels, which she delights in collecting as trophy keepsakes.
Yin Yong
Oni // Ex-criminal Fashionista
Yin Yong, the Oni, had committed countless crimes in the past, making him one of the most notorious yōkai on Comic Fiesta-dori. However, after discovering haute couture fashion, he abandoned the life of crime and embraced fashion as his true calling. With at least a hundred yōkai, the Hyakki Yakou parade provides the perfect audience for him to showcase his style.
Michael
Onmyōji // Yōkai Handler
Michael, a powerful but cute Onmyōji, joins the Hyakki Yakou as the handler of yōkai affairs in the human world. He advises Coffy on mortal mtters, ensuring the yōkai cause just the right amount of mischief to avoid trouble. Using sacred artifacts and talismans, he also summons the deceased to join the procession—granting them one last chance to drift through Comic Fiesta-dori and relive their memories.
