Mappa Douji
Densen Hoshi was supposedly a monk, held in high esteem for his 'ability' to see demons and kill them. People went to him to tell him about a woman called Asanoha Douji who spoke to things others couldn't see and was considered a demon, a fox disguised as a woman. Densen Hoshi and his men burnt her alive in her house but didn't kill her son, Asaha Douji, believing that it wasn't necessary.

Afterwards he was asked to kill him too but Asaha, having formed an Over Soul with Ohachiyo, fought them off and killed Densen Hoshi to avenge his mother.
