Ponchi and Conchi

Ponchi (ポンチ) and Conchi (コンチ) are the Guardian Ghosts of Tamamura Tamao.

About
Ponchi is a tanuki with large testicles and Conchi is a kitsune. They are 400-year-old animal spirits who have evolved into Seirei Class spirits. They have memorial statues in the Asakura Family's ascetic hall.

Both of them act like crappy old geezers who constantly forget their place as house spirits, and are very perverted, threatening to strip in front of others or urinate on an opponent while holding them with Ponchi's oversized testicles. Even though they are nuisances to everyone, they have not been sealed yet because they can be pretty useful too, such as carrying out reconnaissance missions (peeping), performing simple divination (undue suspicion), and casting minor curses (harassment).

They do not like wearing anything to cover up their nudity; however, after getting beat up by Matamune, they both started wearing cloth diapers. They are also immensely afraid of Kyōyama Anna due to her intimidating attitude, and after she beat them up for leering at the women's bath, they began wearing diapers again.

O.S. Angel

 * Tan-Tan-Tanuki's Thousand Tatami Mats (たんたんたぬきの千畳敷): This is a defensive move with offensive capabilities. By expanding his scrotum from the top of the heart, the Over Soul can envelop an opponent, cutting off any means of escape. The over-sized testicles can also be used to shield, protecting against explosions and cushioning falls.

Anime/Manga Difference
In the 2001 anime series, they sometimes act like children when hurt, running to Tamao for a mother's comfort. In the English versions of the manga, Ponchi's large testicles are redrawn and referred to as a large belly. The testicles remained intact in the English version of the 2021 anime.
