Tokiko


Tokiko was made by: "Hetyo"

Tokiko, a technically unnamed character, appears in the first chapter of Curiosities of Lotus Asia, where she is beaten up by Reimu Hakurei while trying to read a book. It is presumed that she is a youkai because of the fact that she has wings, but other than that, nothing is known about her.

Her true name is unknown, but Tokiko (朱鷺子) is a popular name for her among the fanbase. toki (朱鷺) means "crested ibis", a bird which she resembles in appearance and ko (子) means "child" and is a general-purpose kanji for girls' names. Also, she was referred to on the Japanese Wikipedia on the Curiosities of Lotus Asia article as the "Unnamed Book-Reading Youkai" (名無し本読み妖怪 Nanashi hon yomi yōkai) and later as "The Youkai Who Read a Book" (本を読んでいた妖怪 Hon wo yonde ita yōkai). "Unnamed Book-Reading Youkai" is, however, still a popular name to refer to her.
