Otakura is a genius loci, a spirit bound to a location, who takes over the body of Hotaru Tomoe in one of the manga's bonus tales, The Secret Hammer Price Hall. Rooted in the warehouse behind an old pawn shop, she resents being roused and lashes out at anyone who disturbs her rest.
On her own, Otakura is a formless spirit with no fixed body. Once she seizes Hotaru, she manifests as a woman draped in a flowing black gown with frilled straps, her long dark hair falling loose. Peacock plumes decorate the gown at the hip and crown her head, and she keeps a spray of the same feathers in hand, fanning them out for effect.
Otakura is a territorial presence who guards the ground she inhabits. Being pulled from her long slumber leaves her irritable, and she answers intruders with swift retribution, branding anyone who bothers her as a target for what she calls divine punishment.

Naruto vs Luffy with the twist nobody asked for: Luffy tickled Hinata on date night, and she kind of liked it. We break down the whole fight and commit to a winner....

There are no women on Namek. That isn't an oversight, it's the biology. Why we handed Piccolo the one thing his own species rules out, and why it had to be trap soul....
The spirit made her home in the storehouse standing behind an old pawn shop. When the land sharks grew tired of waiting on an unpaid debt, they moved to demolish the building. As the trucks bore down, Naruru Osaka and Ruruna Kobe stood directly in the way until Makoto Hanmatsuura shoved them clear. One vehicle struck the shop while another slammed into the storehouse, releasing the spirit, who seized Hotaru and named herself guardian of the warehouse. When Naruru and Ruruna turned up dressed as Sailor Guardians, Usagi and Chibiusa transformed for real, and the annoyed Otakura visited punishment on them and Makoto. In their Eternal forms, Sailor Moon and Sailor Chibi Moon then finished her off with the Starlight Honeymoon Double Therapy Kiss, freeing Hotaru, who remembered nothing of the ordeal.
