About this character
The yokai who brings the snow. When Yukimaru is truly in earnest, they say, Echizen is buried. It seems to feel bad about the trouble heavy snow causes, and has been known to pitch in with the shovelling using the banba scoop it carries.
More than anything it loves to dance in the falling snow; with its hair unbound it moves like a fairy. The townspeople passed down the story of "a great blue flower blooming in the snowfall."
