Kiyotsugu's Yokai Knowledge: тома 7-11, 14-16:
Том 7
Welcome! Is everyone doing well!! This is Kiyotsugu!! This time, it seems we've received questions for a variety of people to answer. But of course, I'll be answering too!! Youkai Knowledge is becoming much easier to use, so the Kiyo Cross Squad will also increase in numbers---!!
Q: When Tsurara cooks, is it painful to be surrounded by all that fire? Also, if you have a signature dish, please tell me what it is.
Tsurara: Being surrounded by fire is painful!! (cries) But but, for the sake of everyone in the Nura Clan I bear with it and from waaaay off to the side, I try my best and cook! My signature dish is... shaved ice, but... I can make anything basic. Ah, recently it's been carpaccio!
Q: Who is the oldest among Kubinashi, Yuki Onna and the Sanbagarasu?
Kubinashi: That would be me. Actually, I am a youkai who was born during the Edo period. But we can talk about that another time. Tsurara and the Sanbagarasu are honestly very young.
Q: I love Kappa ♥ By the way, when you're wearing headphones, what music do you listen to?
Kappa: Everything~. Kinds that are easy to get into~. Ah, but I guess mainly music from the west~.
Q: Kiyotsugu and Rikuo. Which is more popular* at school?
Maki: Neither is all that popular...?
Torii: Yeah.
Q: I have a question for Rikuo!! Of the youkai you've fought so far, who was the toughest?
Night Rikuo: Hm? I wonder who it could be... Yosuzume or Tamazuki, I guess...
Q: Why does Night Rikuo-kun leave his hand sticking out from his clothes? Is it because his blood is hot?
Night Rikuo: ......
Q: Where is the Kiyo Cross Squad's base of operations?
Kana: We borrow an unused public preparations room!! Though for a short while before that, we used a classroom. Ah, but there's also the rooftop with Yura-chan... I guess?
Q: What are Ryuuji and Mamiru's heights? Ryuuji wears geta, but it seems like there's a significant difference...?
Yura: There's a pretty big one. But I can't really talk about it in front of oniichan. He'll give me a nasty look!!
* "Popular" here is referring to popularity with the opposite sex.
Том 8
Kiyo: YAHOOOO-- Is everyone doing well!! Lately, questions have been pouring in and my happiness has reached new heights. I can't answer these all by myself!! So I will receive answers from various people nationwide!! Then, without further delay, let's begin!! Nura-kuuuun!!
Rikuo: Eh? Why did you wave at me just now?! Wuah, why are you poking me?!
Q: This is for Yura-chan. Of your shikigami, who do you like best? For me, it's Tanrou! I love dogs!
Yura: Ho hou. Aren't you glad, Tanrou? But this one is a shikigami of the now-extinct "Japanese wolf." (Honshū Wolf) He isn't a dog. Rokuson is a "Hokkaido Sika Deer." Hmm, even though you asked who I like best, I can't decide. They're all so wonderful! And they don't take out of my food expenses! By the way, Bukyoku is an "ochimusha" shikigami!!
Q: How many members are in the Blood Night Hyakki Yakou, including the leader?
Aotabou: Before I joined, it seems that there were 108 people but because some were sent to the hospital, now it's exactly 100. I don't have my own clan, but I thought I'd try having a team like this and it isn't so bad.
Q: I have a question for Kana-chan! How many times have you been confessed to?
Kana: Eh, EEEEEEH!! That sort of thing is a little... hard to answer. And it's embarrassing, too... Somehow, I think it happens more now that I'm a middle school student? I don't get it!
Q: Ryuuji-san has his full name written on his water flask, but does he make a habit of writing his name on his possessions?
Ryuuji: There's no way that would be true. Since this is a shikigami container I've used since childhood, I can't replace it that easily. By the way, that isn't writing. It's carved in.
Q: Is Maki-san's hair dyed? Is it natural?
Maki: The time for me to answer a question too has finally arrived-!! Yes yeees, I would be lying if I said it is natural, but because anything more would be against school rules, I can't saaaaay!! By the way, is Rikuo's natural? Reverse pudding?
Rikuo: Eh? I don't dye it.
Kiyotsugu: How suspicious, Nura-kun!! There's something suspicious about that strange hair color. So then, does it mean you are about half-obsessed with youkai?
Rikuo: Ehhhh~~? Why would it be something like that... a-anyway, keep sending in your questions, everyone!!
Том 9
Q: Do yokai have events like New Year's and Christmas?
Karasu Tengu: Yes! My knowledge of such annual youkai events throughout Japan is limited, but as far as the Nura Clan is concerned I can easily answer!! At their heart, yokai enjoy having fun. Those at our house particularly like holding parties. Take a look, there's singing too. It's a "in January, you can drink sake on New Year's~" sort of mood. Christmas? We don't really pay attention to western holidays. Despite that, we definitely have Halloween!!
Q: Here's a question for Ryotaneko! Are you a calico cat? Or is that thing on your left eye a birthmark?
Ryotaneko: W-woah... That all came out so fast, I was really surprised. Leeeet's see. I'm a calico cat yokai! Actually, calico cats are mostly female, so there aren't any males. But, I'm male. Maybe that's why I became a yokai~~~.
Q: What sort of relationship do Kejourou and Kubinashi have?
Kubinashi: What sort of relationship... hm. Well, acquaintances from a very long time ago... I guess...
Kejourou: Stop that. Saying something so thoughtless.
Kubinashi: Hey, wait a... where are you going? Umm, I'm sorry. She seems to be in a bad mood, so maybe another time... okay?
Q: Do yokai have blood types? If they do, what blood type is Kappa? (By the way, I'm B type)*
Kappa: I don't really know anything about blood types. I guess I don't have one? Everyone's colors are pretty varied, too~
Q: Rikuo is an only child. Yura-chan has an older brother, but do the others have any brothers or sisters?
Kiyotsugu: I am an only child!! Just like always!!
Maki: Yes yeeees. I have a big brother in high school~ He does street ra~cing.
Shima: I have A LOT of younger brothers and sisters.
Q: Why does Gozumaru call Yuki Onna "Snow girl" (yukinko)?
Gozumaru: Heey... What the hell's with asking me a question like that~? Something like that doesn't matter at all~
Mezumaru: Then how about calling her "Tsurara"? It's such a cute name!
Gozumaru: Haah? Are you an i~diot~?
Mezumaru: Ouch-!! Why're you angryyy?
Том 10
Q: Who is the most popular out of Kurotabou, Kubinashi and Rikuo?
Tsurara: Rikuo-sama!!
Rikuo: R...really? I don't really think it's me, though...
Tsurara: No, master is number one!!
Kejourou: Tsurara... do you understand what that means? Saying he's popular means he's the sort of person girls flock to, you know? Do you really want that for Rikuo-sama?
Tsurara: Rikuo-sama isn't popular at all!! From now on, he'll be incredibly unpopular!!
Rikuo: Sa-saying that is... a little cruel...
Q: How strong is Aotabou's grip? I'm interested, so please tell me!!
Aotabou: There isn't a "measurement unit" for my strength!!
Kurotabou: What does that mean, Ao. Don't tell me you've forgotten about a little thing called the "ton."
Aotabou: My strength is measured in "years"!! If you are crushed by my hands, it will take 3 years for a full recovery!!
Kurotabou: ......
Q: What games does Yukari-chan like to play?
Yukari: The two-meter run.
Q: Where does Kappa usually sleep? In the mansion? In the pond?
Kappa: Hmmmm~ in a river, I guess? I go to sleep in the river~ and when I wake up in the morning, somehow it's kinda fun to figure out where it's taken me~.
Q: How many blades does Kurotabou carry with him?
Kurotabou: Just like a strong-man, 999 blades... would be impossible, but there are at least 200, I'd guess. I've never really counted.
Q: Rikuo's sword is called Nenekirimaru. So then, what about Itaku's sickle?
Itaku: Fabric ream, tree, bamboo, iron, sword, frying pan - all of these together make six cylindrical items. The source of its name is in the handle.
Awashima: You've got no sense at all.
Q: In chapter 54, Yura uses the shikigami Tanrou, which had been ripped at one point and fixed with tape, but is it really alright to recycle a shikigami's paper like that?
Yura: Tanrou comes from that ofuda, so... I have to use it. Well, it's possible to transfer him to another paper, but the only papers I have handy are receipts. Wait, I've got it! My coin purse. Did you know it's a charm against evil spirits? It isn't just some tacky frog!!
Том 11
Q: What's the difference between a Kappa and a Numakappa?
Kappa: Hm? No idea~.
Amezo: I'm a kappa who was born in a swamp, so I'm a numakappa. It's probably not much of a difference. Our appearances are completely different, though!
Q: Why is Gozumaru's left eye covered up?
Gozu: I'm not hiding it or anything.
Mezu: He covers up one eye out of admiration for Gyuuki-sama!! But it's on the wrong side~~~~♪
Gozu: Shut up, you idiot!! I'll knock you down from here!!
Mezu: I'm higher up, so you can't knock me down!! I'm so high up you can't even see me!!
Gozu: ......
Том 15
Q: Is Night Rikuo's hairstyle held in place with something like spray or wax?
Tsurara: Ehhh, Rikuo-sama usually goes to school without doing anything to his hair. The number of times he tries to leave with bedhead is really worrisome! So. That's why the nighttime version is probably a really bad case of bedhead...
Rikuo: Eh?! Re-really?! I usually don't think much of it, but the idea that my night self has bedhead is strangely embarrassing!! I mean, that can't be right, can it?! Isn't that just the sort of hairstyle it is?!
Q: This is a question for Ryotaneko-san. Do you wear fundoshi? Panties?
Ryotaneko: Well, I'm a guy, so of course it's fundoshi for me!! Panties?! I can't deal with something that's so roomy like that. ...but anyway, why are you asking something like that?!
Том 16
Q: I have a question for Kubinashi-san! Does your head ever get lost?
Kubinashi: It's happened before... one time, it was flung away as far as Nagoya... But like this, is it the head that's lost? The body? I wonder which would be correct?
Q: If Kidomaru were Shuten Douji's real son, wouldn't Kidomaru and Ibaraki Douji be something like step-brothers?
Ibaraki: ...assuming that were the case.
Kidomaru: We are members of the oni family, who currently the Nue may use as he will. I believe that is sufficient.
(in the original legends, Kidomaru is Shuten Douji's biological son, whereas Ibaraki Douji is adopted into the family and becomes Shuten Douji's servant.)
Q: Does night Rikuo-kun know the subjects that day Rikuo-kun studies? If so please solve this: 2x + (x - 5).
Night Rikuo: That's way too much to deal with before breakfast... and besides, for the supreme commander of all yokai, those sorts of calculations aren't necessary!
Q: Between Aotabo and Kurotabo, which joined the Nura Clan first?
Ao: I joined before him! Fufufu. Kurotabo joined during the Genroku Era. Fufu...
Kuro: What's with that... just because you joined before me, stop it with that winner-type face! Certainly, I joined later than you. Incidentally, Kubinashi also joined earlier than I did.
Kubinashi: That's true... no, I mean, I wonder if that was the case. It was a really long time ago, after all. My memory's fuzzy~.
Kuro: Oi, oi, get ahold of yourself. I joined around 310 years ago. You joined about 10 years before that, didn't you?
Kubinashi: That's right. I thought it was about 250 years ago, but... time sure passes quickly...
No, I mean, I'm very sorry.
Q: More than anyone, I like the prideful Itaku best! I've got a question, but, what does Rera Makiri mean?
Itaku: ...thanks. I appreciate it. About the question, Rera means "wind" and Makiri means "short sword". So, Rera Makiri is "a short sword of wind"... it's the fear I pride myself on.
Q: Are Yuki Onna unable to take baths?
Tsurara: Yes yeeees! Of course we can! In the Nura Main House, there are also cold baths~!! I make good use of them!!
Reira: I take normal baths. If I adjust my fear, I can even go into an onsen. <3
Tsurara: O...oooh~~~~...
Q: Concerning night Rikuo, how old is he?
Rikuo: This is about appearance, I guess? Since I'm 3/4ths human... as I'm 12, my night self looks about 16!! In other words, if x represents my night self's age, then you find it using 3/4 x = 12!
Tsurara: I see~~!
