Juriko Kito

In her human form, Juriko is a pale, gray-skinned woman of middle age. Black hair sits in a neat bob that frames her face and her closed eyes. She pairs navy-blue trousers with a purple shirt worn beneath a white button-up, and a necklace rounds out the look.

Like the rest of the Kito women, Juriko fixates on the family's standing and bows to the Tsuchinoko. When Naki let slip that Jiji had hired spirit mediums, she and the others rounded on him in fury over the embarrassment he risked. She also took her ease in the house, helping herself to snacks as the men carried out their scheme.

True to family custom, Juriko aided Naki Kito in giving humans over to the Tsuchinoko, calming a hunger that could otherwise wake the village volcano. Across the Cursed House Arc she observed Jiji bring Momo and Okarun indoors, lounging with the women while the men sought out Momo at the springs. After the clan pummeled the boys for Jiji's lie, they assaulted Momo and shoved her into the secret sacrificial room. When Okarun and Jiji recovered and forced Naki and the sons into the pit while dragging Momo to safety, Juriko and the women ambushed them from behind, and all of them dropped into the lair, where the Tsuchinoko consumed the family. After being regurgitated alive, Juriko and her relatives were seized for murder and abduction once the village was safe, though Naki managed to slip the authorities.
