Your interpretation of 3JSB and their animal forms.
Reblog if you want one of these in your ask box:
@sgailsheilleache thanks for the ask!
I’m imagining a feudal period Japan au where 3jsb are animal yokai taking the form of humans or something…!
Naoto… can be a Hoo (peacock) who shows off and dazzles court ladies, and then the next day servants find their ladies in a daze with the only evidence a peacock feather. Well, according to the yokai wiki it’s supposed to be a symbol of purity and peace but y’know, creative license
Naoki… can be a Kirin, a gentle and revered creature said to have an expression of utter serenity. Sometimes sighted in quiet forests and other times leaping freely across the plains in a blur of golden light. Probably helps people find their lost children too.
Elly… can be a Kotobuki! An auspicious chimera that protects humans from sickness and disease and grants long life to the good. I guess during celebrations he might make a fabulous and energetic appearance to the imperial court.
Gun... the only manipulative and seductive animal yokai I can see here is a nekomata, cat spirit with a forked tail, contemptuous towards humans and can use their powers to create giant fireballs and influence humans to do terrible things.
Ken... can be a Sachihoko (fish-tiger), a huge sea monster that can swallow gigantic amounts of water, and seen as a symbol of protection because it can spit out the water in its belly or summon rain clouds to help humans when their houses are set on fire.
Omi… an okuri-inu, a seeing-off dog. A dog or wolf like creature that follows night travellers through a forest. If you should trip, then he’d pounce on you and eat you up. But whilst he’s after you, no other animal would dare come close because he’s so feared.
Ryuji… an Nyūnai suzume (imperial palace-penetrating sparrow), a sparrow formed from the revengeful spirit of a wronged nobleman, that flies into the palace and eats all of the emperor’s breakfast no matter how much is laid out.
