Count down with me--Day 9

"Hundred Eye" is a story about yokai called dodomeki. When I decided to write a story about her, something popped into my mind.
I flip through my copy of Toriyama Sekien's collection, an artist who drew yokai, from time to time for inspiration. I had come across this page and thought, oh, how cute!

This is ninmenju, and I wrote Nin based on this yokai. How can one not write a story about it!? So I made these two meet.

This, by the way, is dodomeki. She is beautiful, too, isn't she?
