Youko

ようこ

Yōko serves as the female protagonist of the series. She possesses two primary abilities. The first is jaen, which involves shooting a coiling strand of fire from her fingertips. There is also dai-jaen, a larger and more powerful variation of this technique. Her second ability is shukichi, which allows her to teleport objects. Oddly enough, while she is generally fearless when facing evil spirits, she is terrified of ordinary dogs. During an escape from Hake, she encountered the child Keita, who stayed with her for three days and shared his chocolate cake with her; this treat became one of her favorites. Because of this incident, she desired to become Keita's inukami to form a contract with him. Yoko has feelings for Keita and becomes angry whenever he flirts with other girls.
