Tōkotsu

Tōkotsu (檮杌) is one of the Shikyō.

History
Tōkotsu was a member of the Shikyō, and entrusted with the red Rainbow Pearl by his master Kirinmaru. One day, he was suddenly decapitated, presumably by Moroha, who took the red pearl for herself. When Jakotsumaru saw what happened, he desperately started gathering bones to revive him.

When Moroha, Setsuna, and Towa Higurashi found him and Jakotsumaru; they attacked with an army of red skeletons. Moroha used the Beni to become Beniyasha. Tokōtsu warned his son to be careful since that was the demon that decapitated him.

Jakotsumaru attacked Moroha, who quickly dispatched him with her Sankon Tessō attack. Tokōtsu raged at Moroha for killing his son, and bit into her shoulder. Moroha took some of her own blood and used her yokāi energy to turn it into Hijin Kessō.

Tokōtsu exploded and was set ablaze, but he was still alive. Setsuna and Towa then banished Tokōtsu together, and they took his skull back to Jyūbei.

Kyūki reported Tokōtsu's and his son's death to Kirinmaru, who didn't remember Tokōtsu until she told him he entrusted him with the red pearl. Kirinmaru praised the strength of the girls and Tōkotsu since he would have been pretty powerful to serve under him.
