Juju Kito

Behind a human guise, Juju is a pale, gray-skinned woman whose purple hair is shaped into a bob. Deep creases ring her permanently closed eyes, and her mouth tends to stretch into a wide, red-lipsticked grin. Her outfit layers a dark green sweater above a paler green collared shirt, paired with grayish-green trousers.

Juju is intent on guarding the family's name. The moment the women learned Jiji had been bringing in spirit mediums, she joined them in furiously scolding him for the disgrace it might invite. While the men handled Momo at the springs, she relaxed inside the house and raided its snacks, sharing her kin's offhand cruelty and their reverence for the Tsuchinoko.

Upholding the family's custom, Juju assisted Naki Kito in offering up humans to the Tsuchinoko so its appetite would not stir the village volcano. Through the Cursed House Arc she watched Jiji lead Momo and Okarun inside, then relaxed with the other women while the men went after Momo at the springs. After the clan beat the boys over Jiji's lie, they set upon Momo and dropped her into the concealed sacrificial room. When Okarun and Jiji woke and drove Naki and her boys down into the pit while hauling Momo loose, Juju and the women struck them from behind, and every one of them tumbled into the lair, where the Tsuchinoko swallowed the family. The worm later coughed them up alive, and after the village was spared, Juju and her relatives were arrested for murder and abduction, with only Naki slipping away.
