Zenki & Goki Spirit Ball Modes

Zenki and Goki are a pair of shikigami that were captured and used by Hamono Tadatomo, and Asakura Hao—during his first life—later took them as his own.[4] They were very loyal to Hao and would kill anyone who came in their way.[3] After being caught by Kyōyama Anna, they seem to lose their conscience.

After Hao's first defeat by the Asakura Family, they were sealed within the Chō-Senjiryakketsu from where they tried to kill anyone who attempted to learn the contents of the book. During the Shaman Fight in 2000, Tamamura Tamao accidentally released Zenki and Goki from the book, but they were quickly subjugated by Anna with her 1080 Prayer Beads and made her own.[3]

Years after the Shaman Fight, they were inherited by Alumi Numbirch, an itako disciple of Anna.[5]

Zenki[]

Zenki is the blue shikigami. It has a large horn in the middle of its forehead and two downward pointing tusks. It is large and rather muscular. It uses melee combat as its main form of fighting and the shield it carries is for hitting its enemies. It possesses the ability to formulate simple battle plans and though it takes him some time, it consumes very little Furyoku and therefore it is easy to use.[6] Its eye sockets are shaped like the "Seven Star Tree of Renewal".

Goki[]

Goki is the red shikigami. It has two large horns on its forehead and two upward-pointing tusks. Like Zenki, it is large and muscular and uses a large battle axe for combat.

Unlike Zenki, it does not have eyes at each point of the star; instead, it has one in the center.
