Peachsplit
The Demon-Slayer From the Peach
Slay demons? ...Maybe I'm the one who gets slain.

Profile
Born from a peach, he led a dog, a monkey, and a pheasant to strike down the demons—or so he was meant to be. Instead, he drank in the grudges of the demons he slew and slid, little by little, to the demons' side. He carries the split peach on his back, and his three retainers are now half-translucent ghosts. He appears beside people brandishing their 'justice' and asks only one thing: 'Were they really the evil ones?' He hands out no more millet dumplings.
Relationships with other curses
The Grudge King The Grudge King siphons off the 'grudges of the demons he slew.' He and the little demons of the Lump-Taken Old Man The Lump Taker are, in fact, old acquaintances.
How to deal with this curse
Peachsplit embodies the everyday frustration of "folk tales." Bottled-up feelings only grow heavier. The moment you feel it, give it a name and write it out — that is the quickest way to make it lighter. Noroi Nikki is a completely private place to do exactly that.
