Ten in Tokyo That Night
6. Chitori
A horned komainu demon that wears a tarp over its back. Captures Noshiga – Wikipedia
He's not the most frightening demon of the lot, but he likes he fun more than some of the others. He particularly likes scaring the pants off those ones pretending they're so brave. The smell of fear they give off…and they keep giving off, because they're too proud to admit they're scared and just run away…
But it's disappointing when they di run away. And they're always easy to catch. Running and tripping over themselves once their resolve breaks and their pride follows. Leaking that delicious smell everywhere so it'll fade all too soon.
But it's fun while it lasts.
