Ponosuke Ninokuru

Kobato is a shikigami who serves Soga Ninokuru, and is a youkai dressed in the attire of a yamabushi (mountain ascetic). He speaks in a polite manner and uses a distinctive ending “-po” in his sentences. One day, after being saved by Soga from an attack by a stray cat, Kobato swore deep loyalty to him. Since then, he has acted as a reliable confidant and understanding companion to Soga.
