Miko Yashiro

Although she blends perfectly into high school life as an ordinary, sweet-loving teenager with a perpetually sunny disposition, Miko Yashiro has fabricated this reality by using magic to manipulate the memories of those around her. In truth, she is an ancient six-tailed kitsune with razor-sharp fangs. Centuries ago, she was a terrifying man-eater before being tamed by a monk, eventually developing a deep love for humanity and becoming a local guardian deity who has watched over Hinako’s family for generations. Because Hinako's unique blood constantly triggers her primal carnivorous instincts, Miko forces herself to endure immense physical sickness and spiritual strain just to suppress her overwhelming hunger. When the mermaid Shiori enters their lives with her own intentions toward Hinako, Miko's intensely jealous and protective nature erupts, proving she is more than willing to unleash her monstrous true form to defend her cherished human friend.
