Kandi

He’s a _kōjin_ (孤神, “lone god”) descended from _tsukumogami_ (付喪神, spirits of forgotten artifacts). Raised in a forgotten shrine tucked behind the museum, he was marked by a _yūrei_ (vengeful spirit) who gifted him the crescent weapons as a curse and a blessing. He wears the _hakura_ (白羅) white robes to channel _inugami_ (dog-spirit) focus, balancing his dual nature: half-human, half-spirit. The red star on his forehead is a _seal of solitude_, branding him a guardian of forgotten _kamikaze_ (“divine wind”) relics hidden in the museum. He hunts _yōkai_ triggers that desecrate the museum’s sacred spaces, convinced he’s the _oni_ (demon) needed to restore balance. His chained crescent is a _tsubute_ (投げつぶて), a spirit-cutter, silencing voices of the past
