Karen the Ox-Demon
The Ox-Demon of Complaints
Get me your manager. Now.
By Katsuki Mitsumori
Profile
An ox-headed demon whose catchphrase is 'Let me speak to whoever's in charge.' When the manager finally appears, it just demands someone higher up. But hit it with a serene 'I completely understand how you feel~' and its fury deflates, until it lets out a tiny moo and shrinks. A familiar face to anyone who has worked a customer-service job or dealt with an angry client.
Relationships with other curses
Even that booming roar wilts into silence under the quiet pressure of the stone-faced couple The Pitchfork Couple.
How to deal with this curse
Karen the Ox-Demon embodies the everyday frustration of "work." 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.
