One of the first characters to appear in the Mahjong Soul Temple. She is the current priestess of the temple who claims to be human, despite her cat ears. To Ichi-hime, nothing is more important than eating and napping. She is interested in food and sleep.



The anime is set in Hiroshima Prefecture's Onomichi City, where a high school student Nashiko Jippensha was kicked out of her house. Without a place to play with her friends, she learns that the mahjong parlor that her father used to run is now vacant. She fixes the mahjong parlor and turns it into a place where she and her friends can have fun, cook, have tea, and sometimes play mahjong.
