ginnojo was my first boy i liked from ayakashi just because his ssr was my first. i was like, yep, i'll make him my fav just because he was my first lol
ginnojo is a shy bookshop keeper, a veteran of war, and he is VERY shy around women
he is blushing and stuttering his way through every interaction with mc in the game (i'm exaggerating lol)
his story was kinda the most boring one, unfortunately :c
but they compinsated with ssr hidden stories and small interactions in events
in game, he doesn't have anything interesting in his design that would reflect his dragon nature. you can see on official artwork that he has like a few scales on his cheek and arm, and that's it. i think it's a mist opportunity! so i added more scales and a dragon tale for him.
(screenshots from ayakashi: romance reborn)
yes!! he is THAT OLD, but don't fret, there's is even more ancient dude (who i really like too, but he didn't get into nu: carnival line up)
ayakashi live longer lives and seemingly don't age, and in nc yokai have long lives too, like kuya and quicy for example
ginnojo has a blue gem on his left hand
his conterpart is yakumo
ginnojo is kind of weird yokai as well, he is a water dragon. how do you become a water dragon yokai in nc universe? i don't know!
ginnojo lives in deep water territory. even though, water territory seems to be more inhabited by people, like light territory, i bet there is still secluded places for rare mythical creatures to occupy.
i imagined his living by a high mountain lake, but looking over nc map (i'll probably post it sometime later) it seems that water territory is very flat 😭
and i don't want another yokai chilling in wood territory. i know that it's often their birth place, and it's safer from humans, but idk it's a big concentration of sexy dudes in one place lmao they can't be ALL neighbors to each other yk
water territory seems to have dence forests too, judging from the main story (where rei lives), so i bet there is a place for a magical secret lake or something suitable for a water dragon. *huffs and puffs*

≿━━━━༺❀ koga kitamikado ❀༻━━━━≾
✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and an ushi-oni. living life as a half-ayakashi has been hard, especially as one so volatile. you're often found at the piers alone, with a scowl on your face. recently, strange things began to happen around you.
✿ you were 22, while koga was 24. it'd been 8 years since your mother died, and 8 years since koga's parents died. neither of you had quite been the same since, just in different ways.
✿ you'd been out, brooding at the piers, staring at the comings and goings of the ships. your father was... around, somewhere, waiting on an another shipment that was coming in. that was probably why koga was there, to buy whatever was coming in. and via whatever link that you shared, he noticed you and was drawn to talk to you. though you weren't particularly enthused about this fact.
✿ koga didn't really mean to keep showing up in your day-to-day life, but he was a client of your father's and a well-known figure around the capital. and every time your paths crossed he attempted to hold a conversation, which you eventually got tired of rebuking. it didn't take long after that for your onmyoji powers to manifest and his true nature to be revealed.
✿ koga thought you most interesting. something about him was drawn to you, not only due to how lonely you seemed. he didn't like seeing people be lonely in the first place, but you especially he never wanted to see unhappy. to his unfortune, you seemed to always be that.
you, admittedly, found koga to be compelling. or at least your soul did. you on the other hand mostly found him increasingly annoying with his attempts to talk to you. that, added with the constant strangeness surrounding you... well, it made you a bit grumpy about him to say the least.
≿━━━━༺❀ kuya ❀༻━━━━≾
✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and a futakuchi-onna. your mother had incited a deep seated love for food in you (despite your "small" appetite) which lead to you apprenticing at many restaurants around the capital.
✿ you were 22, as was kuya. you'd been apprenticing at various restaurants around the city for six years, two years prior to that your mother had died. kuya was freeloading at koga's, as expected.
✿ kuya and koga had reservations at a restaurant you were apprenticing at. you were assigned as their chef, which was a problem as you'd recently begun to feel hungry, which is when your ayakashi-form is the most prone to appearing. after several incidents of almost getting caught (and having to stuff your second mouth with a tablecloth), kuya spared you by insisting that they leave.
✿ you weren't actually certain if kuya had picked up on your... strangeness, but when he came by a second time (alone) and asked for you to serve him again you were fairly certain he had. he didn't pry into it though, and simply became a regular at the place and a couple of others you often worked at.
✿ kuya found you weird, mostly. but fascinating for the bits he was actually awake for. you were quiet, didn't try and disturb him, and besides your sometimes odd behaviour you were cute. and maybe he was inexplicably drawn to you, but who's to say to that.
kuya was so so nice. you didn't know if he meant to be, but he was. his visits often allowed you to calm down your more base urges in privacy, as he spent most of his time sleeping while visiting, which made your life far more easier than it'd ever been. he truly entered your life at a perfect time.
≿━━━━༺❀ ginnojo ❀༻━━━━≾
✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and a nure-onna. you were often found around the city helping around children and animals. you're pretty known around the capital for watching over all the children and protecting them.
✿ you were 26, around the same age as ginnojo would be if he was human. dragon's age so strangely. it'd been over two decades since your mother died.
✿ you'd been organizing a little reading nook in the park, where you would be reading for the younger kids and the older kids could find books that they liked. so, you were scouring every bookstore in the city until eventually you ended up at ginnojo's. it was a very strange visit, as ginnojo was far too nervous to actually talk to you the whole time, but you found the best books there so your search ended in success.
✿ after the first time, you started frequenting his shop as it had the best collection of books you'd come across. that, and they all seemed oddly impervious to all the rain that happened when you happened upon a bad mood. ginnojo however did not get any better at actually talking to you.
✿ ginnojo found you attractive. it was as simple as that. you were an attractive alpha, and he had no idea how to interact with any part of that. not to mention, something about you seemed familiar. he couldn't place it, but he was sure that it was important. that you were important.
ginnojo was very cute. he barely said a word to you, but you could tell that at least. and he felt like a kindred spirit in some sense. you couldn't really put your finger on it, so you mostly dismissed it as a crush on a cute omega. but it did nag you a little bit.
≿━━━━༺❀ aoi ❀༻━━━━≾
✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and a baku. after your mother's death, you were tasked with her duties to look after the city and their dreams, which made you appear rather lazy, though endearing to the general population.
✿ you were 17 at the time, a year older than aoi. your mother had died exactly a decade prior, while aoi had been in the capital for almost two years.
✿ you were sleeping at the river bank, though really you were "working". aoi came to the same river bank to sketch, noticed you, and decided to sketch you. that night, while you were working again, you happened upon a dream that featured... you. that's how the two of you became aware of each other, but it wasn't until the next day that the two of you actually met at the river bank.
✿ the two of you would often "meet up" at the river, where you would get on with your individual work. the two of you rarely talked, but seeing as you were sleeping most of the time it wasn't a surprise. but it was a nice routine, that neither of you wanted to break.
✿ aoi found you very vexing. but also pretty, which made you a rather effective muse for his work. but you were still asleep almost every time he saw you, which he absolutely hated. at first anyways. weirdly enough, after a while he didn't much mind anymore.
something about aoi made his dreams in particular very appealing to you. after the first night, you realized you'd visited his dreams plenty of times before, even for non-nightmare purposes. his subconsciousness drew you to him for some reason.
≿━━━━༺❀ yura ❀༻━━━━≾
✿ you were the only child of a famous art-dealer and an akurojin-no-hi. you were most known for your habit of walking around the city on rainy nights, something you inherited from your mother. you think so, anyways.
✿ you were a mere 20 years old, though often you felt like you were far older. being basically just a living soul, you were extremely close to your past lives. yura was over a thousand, though technically to him you'd already met a long time ago.
✿ you were on one of your usual walks, it was a night and it was raining. everyone who knew you was expecting it. what no one expected, not even you, was the compulsion to head for the mountains. there, you ended up at a temple, and the two twins there saw you and invited you inside. something made you take that offer, even though similar ones had been made a million times before and you'd accepted none.
✿ after that you often ended up at the shrine, sometimes unintentionally, sometimes not. sometimes it wasn't even during a rainy night. regardless, you ever only accepted yura's offers to come inside from the rain.
✿ yura realized right away who you were, someone he had loved so dearly in the past had come back to him. his dear alpha. you didn't recognize him, but just being near you was enough for him, feeling your warm flames.
yura felt like home, strangely enough. you felt like you knew him, like you should know him. you concluded that it was your soul who knew him, and that was why you let him invite you inside. so, you let your soul guide you back to him whenever it desired.
hello !! may i request a scenario with ginnojo from ayakashi rr with the prompt that says "I-I-I wasn‘t drawing you! Don‘t stare at it!" ? um for reader they like to draw but they arent confident in their abilities and tend to hide their works from other ppl !! if its alright to specify aha- tysm !!
Ahh thanks for the lovely request! I'm sorry that it took me so long to write it! I hope that you like it and have a great day!💕💕
You were sitting at a corner in one lovely known place. The one you knew better than most people, except for Ginnojo of course, as he was the one who works at Kusanagi Books. The one book store that belonged to him and was next to the Milk Hall Raccord, which you also have often visited.
“Hello, (y/n).” You heard one familiar voice greeting you, as you closed the book that you were reading, cheeks a little bit pinkish. “Oh uh… Hello, Ginnojo.” You nodded towards him, sending him a warm smile. “Reading another book?” You nodded your head again, eyes moving down to the blueish book, too shy to answer him properly. The blue-haired ayakashi walked off, sorting the newer books into the bookshelves.
Your gaze wandered up, not meeting anyone’s, making you sigh in relief, before you grabbed a small notebook and start doodling and in there. Your eyes often moved up, not realizing that you were searching the owner of the book store. Were you really that madly in love with him? Or was it just a mere crush?
Hoping for the last one, you were continuing your drawing of one certain person who never leaves your mind. He was living there, rent-free. You were sure of it.
“Interesting. He looks like… me.” A voice whispered into your ear, making your back shiver by the soft voice. A small squek left your lips, as you turned around, putting your hands over the drawing. “I-I-I wasn‘t drawing you! Don‘t stare at it!”
Chuckling at you, Ginnojo nodded his head, knowing that you were drawing him. He might not know why, but he surely knew that it made him happy. “You are very good at it, (y/n).” You only shook your head at his words, denying it.
“No, I’m not…” You mumbled softly, but Ginnojo could be – surprisingly – stubborn too, so he grasped the notebook out of your hands to take a closer look at your lovely drawing. “I think you do. I really like it.” He said, eyes wandering towards your blushing and shocked face. “Y-You do…?”
He nodded again. “I do. If I might ask… May I keep it? I would be happy to see it and always think of you, whenever I see this lovely drawing.” He asked you, making you gulp at his question and nervous. He truly wanted to have it and also thought of it as a good drawing. Never have you thought that anybody would ever like it. “O-Of course… If you want it.”
The blue-haired ayakashi thanked you, smiling at you so sweetly that you thought that actual butterflies stormed in there. “N-No problem…”
Anyone know the app to download the JP version of Ayakashi Romance Reborn? I was looking at the QooApp I heard about but can't seem to find it for android.
Also would need a translator app for it.
Also sucks that EN can't transfer our existing accounts to the JP one so we don't loose our progress and cards (especially since of only 2 months of playing I was finally being able to do ok in events).
Have some Ginnojo since he's a sweet husbando I want to have
Do Mizuchi water dragons transform in water? No idea, but here is partially transformed Ginnojo with Futaba. I returned to ayakashi romance reborn otome game and have decided that the net needs more hot monster boy pictures (next up Toichiro or Kagemaru)
