[[folder:Tsubaki Aoi]]
!!Tsubaki Aoi
!!! '''Voiced by:''' Creator/NaoTouyama (JP), Creator/EmilyNeves (EN)
The main heroine of the series.
Aoi is a college sophomore who has the ability to see ayakashi ever since she was a child. She also just so happens to be her grandfather Shiro's collateral for his small debt of one hundred million yen at an inn called Tenjin-ya as a bride to an ogre who runs the establishment.
Determined to pay off the debt on her own rather than marry the guy, Aoi currently runs a small restaurant called Moonflower which serves food from the Apparent Realm tailored to the ayakashi palate.
----
* AffectionateNickname: Hatori calls her Missy.
* AllLovingHeroine: Downplayed. Aoi is nice but she doesn't get in the way of other's consequences, [[spoiler:such as when she didn't defend Ōryo when the latter attacked her during her trip to Yōto with Ōdanna ]] .
* ArrangedMarriage / AccidentalMarriage: What jump started her entire adventure in the Hidden Realm in the first place.
* BeastAndBeauty: The Beauty to Ōdanna's Beast. [[YouSexyBeast Not that he can be considered "ugly" in any sense.]]
* BlowYouAway: Courtesy of the Tengu fan gifted to her by Matsuba.
* CantHoldHisLiquor : During a meal she shared with Ōdanna, Aoi was initially worried to try out the alcohol that came with the meal, thinking that she might be like her [[TheAlcoholic grandfather]] or maybe she would pass out drunk. She subverts it and later enjoys the drink, saying that it tasted more like juice.
* CuteClumsyGirl : Not always, but Aoi has her moments. She ''did'' break down a door or two when she eavesdropped on a conversation between Hatori, Tokihiko and Ōdanna.
* DamselInDistress : Aoi tends to fall into a lot of trouble. ''A lot of trouble.''
* TheDeterminator : Aoi '''will not''' marry the Ogre God and will pay off that 100,000,000 yen debt by any means necessary. [[SelfMadeWoman On her own]], she would add.
* DoItYourselfThemeTune : Her voice actor, [[Creator/NaoTouyama Nao Touyama]] sings the opening song, Tomoshibi no Manimani.[[note]] At the Mercy of the Light [[/note]]
* DudeMagnet : Aoi is [[InformedAttractiveness known to be a rare beauty in the Hidden Realm]], and by far she's got almost every single male character wrapped around her finger without having to lift any.
* EasilyForgiven : Sure, Aoi can be a bit petty at times, but really, anyone who's done some kind of cruel thing or mishap towards her is almost always certainly forgiven if she sees they really meant it, save for special mentions.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment : Aoi's first scene shows her independent and practical side and her compassion for yōkai, giving them food when they are hungry as seen when she goes to school from the apartment she lives in alone and when she gives [[spoiler:Ōdanna]] her own lunch on her way to school.
* FearOfThunder : All of her terrible memories are associated with the dark, the sound of thunder and the flash of lightning. Hearing it causes Aoi to become paralyzed with fear.
* FeminineWomenCanCook : Aoi is the resident [[SupremeChef supreme chef]] and has almost all of the qualities of a young girl in a shojō manga[[note]] which she is[[/note]], with the only difference of her being a college sophomore.
* GoodIsNotDumb : The girl has a heart but she can damn tell when things are not as they seem, effortlessly seeing through people and their inner emotions and turmoils.
* HappilyAdopted : By her grandfather Shiro [[spoiler:after her mother had abandoned her at a young age]].
* ImportantHairAccessory : The camellia hair pin given to her by Ōdanna. It is made out of rose quartz and resembles that of a real flower by blooming. When the bud does bloom in full, Aoi's time limit to pay the debt will have expired.
%%* TheIngenue : Downplayed.
* ItRunsInTheFamily : The high spiritual energy, ability to see yŌkai and embed one's spiritual energy into something edible for them was a something Shiro had passed on to his granddaughter.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop : From the way Shiro's been doing things, it seemed as though he had been planning in secret for the day when he would pass and prepared a place for Aoi to stay for so many years without her knowing, such as [[spoiler: lying to her about liking a sweeter, more bland flavor profile when he, like most humans, would have wanted a more savory one]].
* LuminescentBlush : Sports one whenever Ōdanna's involved in some intimate moment with her.
* MissingMom : Of the [[ParentalAbandonment cruel, voluntary kind]].
* MyGreatestFailure : To not be able to cook for her grandfather before he died. What makes it even more heartbreaking was knowing that Shiro made it his last will before he passed on.
%%* NiceGirl
* ParentalAbandonment: Her mother left her in a dark, isolated room without any food or water for days on end, never came back for her and her father is essentially absent throughout her entire childhood. The poor thing's got it hard.
* PluckyGirl : Aoi's nice but she can be pretty stubborn and spirited.
* RaisedByGrandparents : After the tragic [[ParentalAbandonment Parental Abandonment]], Shiro takes it as his responsibility to take the young Aoi in and train her how to cook according to ayakashi tastes.

Special mention goes to Byakuya who was positively livid at the memory of eating and drinking the inn into the red along with ruining the inn's interiors and the destruction of a relic which was essentially a national treasure, thus ruining Tenjin-ya's finances.
* SupremeChef: Her cooking is apparently so good that it can [[HyperactiveMetabolism actually restore a youkai's spirit energy]].
* ThroughHisStomach : Almost every person she gains as an ally was won over with Aoi's cooking.
* TokenHuman : In a cast of all kinds of ayakashi, Aoi is the sole human of the group.
* TrueBlueFemininity: Aoi's default color is in any shade or color with a combination of blue, making her name even more meaningful. [[note]] Aoi is the Japanese word for blue or green, however the kanji officially used for her name means hollyhock. [[/note]]
* UmbrellaOfTogetherness : Shares a moment with Ōdanna on a trip to the hot springs.
* WorkingOffTheDebt: Insists on doing this rather marry Ōdanna, even once she starts learning his better qualities.

!!! '''Voiced by:''' Creator/KatsuyukiKonishi (JP), Christopher Wehkamp (EN)
An Ogre who runs a prestigious inn in the Hidden Realm called Tenjin-ya. Referred to by others commonly as Ogre God or Master Innkeeper.
Staff describe him as a pretty benevolent boss, despite being cold and merciless at the same time. He and Aoi's grandfather went ''way'' back as friends, which made him accept Aoi's hand in marriage when Shiro racked up a debt of 100 million yen.
* AFatherToHisMen / BenevolentBoss: How the staff of Tenjin-ya feel about him.
* AffectionateGestureTotheHead : He's pretty fond of doing this to Aoi as a way of comforting her.
