Kikuchi, Shizuka
Summary
Shizuka Kikuchi, initially presented as a disposable gag character, serves as one of the notable background figures. She first appears during a lesson on Ichimatsu Dolls, where Nube utilizes her image as a cute girl with long black hair to dispel a possession. Beyond this early comedic moment, she is typically seen lingering in the background, either participating in class activities or spending time with her best friend, Noriko. Although she appears innocent, a later chapter reveals that she leverages her unassuming presence to report on her classmates to Nube. This behavior stems from a powerful sense of justice that she prioritizes over her friendships, a trait that nearly leads to trouble with a dangerous group of youkai.
