Oni

Oni (鬼（おに）, "Ogre") are hideous yōkai, usually wearing little to no clothing and possessing large claws, fangs, and horns. A notable exception to this rule is Urasue, an ogre sorceress. The inu daiyōkai Sesshōmaru often rode on the shoulders of large, red oni over a hundred feet tall into battle, before he obtained the demon sword Tōkijin from the fangs of the third Naraku's incarnations: Goshinki.
