Ienaga Kana (家長カナ)

Voiced by: Aya Hirano

Kana is Rikuo's childhood friend and neighbor. She first appears in the original Nurarihyon no Mago one-shot as Yura Usami and says she hates things relating to yōkai and spirit mediums. She is hinted to have some affection for Rikuo, as she gets jealous seeing Rikuo and Tsurara together. Rikuo made a promise to help her if she is ever in need. After being kidnapped by a yōkai on her 13th birthday, she was saved by "Night" Rikuo and was taken to a yōkai party. The next morning Kana asked Rikuo if he was friends with his yōkai form and blushed when Rikuo asked why. She has fallen for Rikuo's Night form to the point she sees brief images of Night Rikou and blush to only ask herself why she thinks of him. However, it is hinted that she is also starting to like Rikuo as she is much concerned and distracted when Tsurara gets too close to him.

gozumaru

Gozumaru (牛頭丸^?)Voiced by: Hiroyuki Yoshino: Gyūki clan's young head. Cool and cruel, he wields a katana and can also make large insect-like pincers spring from his back. Though able to control creatures via string, he is not as proficient with the skill as Mezumaru. During Gyūki's conspiracy against Rikuo, Gozumaru separated Rikuo and Tsurara in order to eliminate the latter. When he was about to deliver the finishing blow, Rikuo appeared and rescued Tsurara by defeating Gozumaru despite not being in full "Night" form mode. He is fiercely loyal to Gyūki and even after Gyūki's defeat and subsequent pardon, he still holds a low opinion of Rikuo. Now he lives in Nura's house as a candidate for the Gyūki clan's next leader, though his presence there is also that of a hostage as a stipulation to Gyūki's pardon. At one point, he and Mezumaru were sent to the 88 kiyakou's base on a reconnaissance mission. Disguised as tanuki, they snuck their way into a restricted area but were discovered and attacked by Tamazuki. Heavily injured, he and Mezumaru were rescued by the Sanbagarasu.

Together with Mezumaru, the first portion of their names form gozumezu (牛頭馬頭), the term for the horse-headed and ox-headed demons who serve as guardians of the underworld in Chinese mythology.

Techniques

Gozuinmasō - Also known as "Gozu shadow claw." Large, deadly insect-like pincers spring from his back which he can use as an extension of his body to attack.
