Kozakura, Mari

小桜茉莉 / マリー

First appeared in Imagination Forest. She is a girl who is 1/4 Medusa and 3/4 human. Her mother told her, "We're medusae, so if we make eye contact with a human they'll be turned to stone." While growing up, she always stuck to their words and hid herself away from the world in the forest. Even after they died, she continued to live alone. By chance, a boy named Seto visited the forest and found her. He has since brought her to the outside world. After coming to the Mekakushi-dan's hideout and joining the group, she leads a sideline life making fake flowers in her room, which generate a very small income. When she went into town to buy ingredients, the first people she met were neighborhood children. They bullied her, and she was traumatized by the incident, so she rarely goes outside anymore. Her inherited ability is Staring Eyes, which allows her to temporarily stop the movement of whoever meets her gaze for a short amount of time.
