Keyuri [ FINAL VERSION ]
Keyuri is the main character of a manga of the same name, written and illustrated by Katsuhisa Kigitsu which began serialization in 2015. She is referred to as the Unliving Gravekeeper, one who guides souls from this life onto the next. While her true form is incomprehensible to mortal eyes and exists only as an ectoplasmic mist that was meant to patrol the pathways between the Mortal Realm and the Dead Realm, she has since been trapped into a humanoid form and bound to the mortal plane (for undisclosed reasons). The series is primarily episodic, and focuses heavily on 'dark slice of life comedy' elements – Most chapters revolve heavily around death and primarily involve one shot characters that believe Keyuri will be able to help them with some problem, only later coming to regret as she deconstructs the intentions of their original wish. Some of the characters (the ones who survive) do end up returning in later chapters, and although each chapter is episodic in nature there is an overarching narrative structure which tells the story of a paranormal being coping with life in the human world and coming to terms with her total lack of regard for mortality.
She has the appearance of a 5 foot tall Red Riding Hood doll with dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. The eyes are painted on, however, so she is never shown to blink or actually perceive things in a normal fashion. As such, things like concealment, invisibility, and darkness do not hamper her senses at all. She cannot effectively pass as a human, as her ball joints are clearly visible, but she is typically treated like a normal girl by most people in the story (although many of the 'straight man' type comedy characters react to her outlandish appearance in an over the top fashion to stress how strange she is). She keeps two razorblades hidden inside her cloak at all times for defensive purposes, and wears a giant fish hook on her belt loop. The core inside of her doll has a tightly wound metal wire wrapped around it. She can expel the wire out of her body and attach it to the fish hook, swinging it around as a ranged melee weapon with deadly precision. Once a target is hooked, she has an easier time pelting them with her ectoplasmic attacks or closing the gap to slice them to ribbons with twin razor fighting style. When Keyuri reveals her true form to human beings it tends to drive them mad (you cannot comprehend the true form of, etc).
Her bound form has an ectoplasmic core with a hard outer shell and a strange paranormal fluid within. This core is the soul of her being, and if damaged will cause ectoplasmic fluid to leak out of her body at the joints. Like most living creatures, if she loses enough of the fluids inside of her she will “die”. It's implied that her consciousness would fade from the mortal realm, but unclear how long or if she'd be able to return. Most speculators assume that she would probably just come back eventually (although not in the middle of a conflict), and her ability to repair her own physical form means that it's very unlikely she could be killed permanently. If her doll parts are destroyed she can keep fighting (as she doesn't feel pain), but if she loses enough ectoplasmic fluid she will be unable to function.
She also possess the following Paranormal Abilities:
