Yabubako-Hoshi/fr

"Il est votre côté sombre. Il a quitté l'arbre pour en faire à sa guise puis est retourné chez lui."

- Chief Priest

Yabubako-Hoshi (薮箱法師) est l'antagoniste principal du one-shot .

C'est une ancienne créature résidant dans un miroir juché sur l'autel caché dans le tronc évidé d'un au temple des Six Murs.

Apparence
L'apparence originelle du Yabubako-Hoshi est inconnu. Il prend l'apparence de tous ceux qui sont reflétés sur le miroir dans lequel il vit. Il reproduit exactement la forme de ceux qu'ils imite, jusqu'à copier leur ADN.

Durant son temps en tant que de, il apparait sans qu'on ne distingue ses yeux et arbore un sourire narquois. Le miroir dans lequel il réside est circulaire et est juché sur une base.

Personnalité
Yabubako-Hoshi est une créature malicieuse qui relâche les pensées et les désirs les plus sombres de la personne qu'il imite. Lorsqu'il a pris la place de Rohan pendant trois mois, il a ainsi continué à se faire passer pour Rohan tout en commettant divers méfaits et autre actes que Rohan n'aurait pas fait en temps normal. Ainsi le Yabubako-hoshi a maltraité, le chien de Rohan, jusqu'à ce que Bakin ait instinctivement peur de sa laisse et devienne un chien méchant. Il a aussi entamé une liaison avec, culminant en mettant Eve enceinte. Selon le prêtre du temple des Six Murs, il en fait à sa guise jusqu'à satisfaction plus retourne à son miroir après trois mois passés à imiter quelqu'un.

Doppelgänger
If the mirror captures a person's reflection, Yabubako-Hoshi is capable of transforming into that person and leaving from the mirror for exactly three months. In this form, it fulfills whatever dark thoughts the person had while the victim's body remains unconscious in the tree's interior shrine. Once it returns back home to the mirror, its victim awakens, unaware that any time had passed at all. It notably keeps the Stands ability of the victims, since Eve has discovered Rohan's ability to turn people into book while he was being replaced by Yabubako-Hoshi.

It is possible to overwrite any action that Yabubako-Hoshi committed outside of the tree by rotating the mirror 360 degrees to the left. However, the person must not have their image reflected on the mirror for this to occur. Thus, someone else would have to rotate the mirror and have Yabubako-Hoshi switch places with them.

Passé
Yabubako-Hoshi is around 500 years old, residing in an 800-year-old yew tree. Ever since the shrine was built, the creature constantly caused trouble to whoever approached it. The ancestors of the priests working there attempted to hide the tree's interior shrine by sealing off the entrance with stones and labeling another tree as the "sacred tree". However, every so often, someone would find the entrance and enter the tree, allowing Yabubako-Hoshi to escape.

On July 7, 2021, Rohan Kishibe finds the entrance to the tree's interior shrine and enters it. His image is reflected on the mirror and Yabubako-Hoshi escapes the tree with Rohan's appearance. Taking Bakin back home with it, Yakubako-Hoshi spends three months in Rohan's place. During this time, he would draw Hot Summer Martha, communicate with Kyoka Izumi, raise Bakin improperly, play baseball with Eve and also sleep with her.

Yabubako-Hoshi returns back home on October 7. However, Rohan attempts to revert its actions and uses Heaven's Door to turn the mirror in his place. Noticing Heaven's Door rather than Rohan still allows Yabubako-Hoshi to escape. It spends another three months in Rohan's place, abusing Bakin with a leash and getting Eve pregnant. It returns back home on January 7, 2022.

Rohan eventually uses his Stand on Eve to control her into turning the mirror. Consequently, Yabubako-Hoshi switches from Rohan to Eve, undoing every action it did as Rohan's doppelgänger. While Eve is unconscious, Yabubako-Hoshi goes back to Rohan's house. Rohan threatens to call the police if she trespasses on his property again and gives a warning to Yabubako-Hoshi to not cause any trouble. Happy that it got scolded by Rohan, it begins to leave, and Rohan gives it back Eve's pet crocodile.
