 __Height:__ 148 cm (human); 175 cm (yokai)

Rikuo Nura is 3/4 human and 1/4 yokai.

He is the son of Rihan and Wakana Nura and grandson of Nurarihyon and Yohime. He is the third and current head of the Nura Clan.  Due to having yokai blood in his lineage, Rikuo has two forms: one in which he takes a human form, and another where his yokai blood takes over and he becomes a full yokai. The former is frequently called his "day" form, whereas the latter is called his "night" form, as originally he was only able to maintain it during darkness.  Rikuo was originally reluctant to accept his yokai blood and his role as the successor to the Nura Clan because he was teased at school for talking about yokai. As he ages, he realizes he has the ability to protect both humans and yokai because of his heritage, and acknowledges himself as the third leader of the Nura Clan.  Rikuo has officially exchanged sakazuki with Zen, Kubinashi, Tsurara, Jami, Kappa, Kurotabo and Aotabo.

Rikuo Nura appears to be an average middle school student. No one knows that he comes home every day to a house full of youkai, nor that he transforms into the all-powerful leader of these spirits at night. However, much to the disappointment of many, Rikuo is determined to live as normal a life as possible.

At first glance, Nura Rikuo seems like nothing more than a normal middle-schooler. In actual fact, he is grandson of Nurarihyon, master of a youkai clan. Having only recently resolved the hostilities between the Nura Clan and the Shikoku Yokai, Rikuo finds no rest as an ancient enemy of the Nura Clan, Haguromo-Gitsune, resurfaces. After 400 years of inactivity, Haguromo-Gitsune suddenly sweeps through Kyoto with overwhelming power.

Rikuo grew up in a house full of yokai, so he always thought they were cool. But the kids in his class talk about yokai like they're bad! When his grandfather announces Rikuo as his chosen heir to run the Nura clan, Rikuo is torn between his human nature and his duties as a yokai. The rest of the clan's not so crazy about a wimpy part-human as their ruler, particularly Gagoze, a high-ranking yokai who would rather eat a human than be ruled by one.
