Profile[]
Identity[]
Izumo-no-Okuni[]
An entertainer from the Azuchi-Momoyama period. She is said to be the progenitor of early Kabuki dances, which, after many changes to the dance styles, has become the Kabuki of the present day. She is said to be the shrine maiden of Izumo, and travelled through various provinces, performing her dances as she went.[1]
It is said that the purpose behind this was to promote the Izumo-taisha, but that is uncertain. What is definite is that Okuni’s early Kabuki dances were extremely popular, and mesmerised people across the world. However, the authorities of the time eventually decided that her dances disrupted public morals, and it is said that she departed for nowhere.[1]
Well well, now you’re all quite acquainted with Izumo no Okuni, right? But you’ve yet to learn the critical top-secret fact about Okuni. Indeed, the shrine maiden who performs excellent Kabuki dances across the country is a temporary figure. In truth, she is a Priestess of Sealing, who seals and destroys the demons who thrive in this world.[1]
――― Ayakashi-Hunter, Izumo no Okuni![1]
Of course, she puts in all her strength in Kabuki too, but she puts on two different hats all the same.[1]
She was born in a village in Izumo which produces Priestesses of Sealing, even though they are considered heretics. Okuni is a young girl who was kidnapped and taken to a distant village by a priest.[1]
She did not even know the faces of her parents, and underwent cruel training as a disposable Priestess of Sealing, and even though her childhood was so filled with misfortune, she went unaffected and undistorted by this, and grew up to be a courageous, cheerful person due to her original training.[1]
One day, the entire village was destroyed overnight by an evil god, which one of her shrine maiden friends had unsealed. Now alone, Okuni travelled to many provinces in pursuit of that evil god. But in the end, that evil god which she chased all her life could not be destroyed. Those regrets became the core of Okuni as a Heroic Spirit.[1]
However, during a certain incident, those regrets were finally washed away. At the end of her long journey, Okuni will finally be able to begin a journey through a new world, as a human being. That’s right, I want to see the outside world with my own eyes.[1]
Zanzaburou[]
The God's Remains (神の骸?) Craft Essence in Fate/Grand Order.
According to legend, she travelled to various regions with her husband, Nagoya Sansaburou, demonstrating her Okuni Kabuki to the masses, but Okuni is now accompanied by a mysterious mechanical warrior named Zanzaburou (斬ザブロー?).[1]
"Well, seems like your little story about Mr. Okuni’s a little behind the times."[1]
The mechanical warrior who accompanies her is, in truth, a sacred treasure passed down in Izumo since ancient times, though Okuni has made her own modifications when remodelling him as a Mystic Code for her personal use. Although she calls him Zanzaburou, he was originally the wreckage of an ancient god.[1]
A mechanical warrior said to have been controlled by a Shrine Maiden of the Seal.[2]
Long ago, there was a God of the land who was said to boast unparalleled strength. He defeated beasts, destroyed evil, and always won his battles. And so the God continued to fight to protect humans, however, in his final moment, he was betrayed by the very people that he protected.[2]
Even so, as he took in the blades of the humans, he did not utter even one word of resentment, he simply took everything as he was. And just like that, the God's body was mercilessly torn into pieces by the people he had continued to protect, his name taken away, and his life as a God came to an end.[2]
Or so the story goes, whether it was true or not, this is the story of Zanzaburou.[2]
Appearance[]
Personality[]
At any rate, she loves new things, and the moment she is summoned, she will take in all the customs and phrases of the present day, and sublimate them as art of her own making. That is also the cause of her peculiar manner of speaking, which includes foreign words unsuited to her home era.[1]

- Puppet Kagura (A Rank): A unique magecraft of Okuni’s invention, where she loads magical energy into her machine and controls him. The magnificent and elegant Kagura dancing demonstrates a powerful combination with her personal Mystic Code, Zanzaburou.[1]
- Shrine Maiden of the Seal (B+ Rank): In order to seal demons with magecraft rituals, this shrine maiden has undergone special training. Not just anyone can achieve mastery of these techniques, and one’s inborn traits are important. The training is so cruel that it begins in early childhood, and it is not rare for people to lose their lives during this training.
The mechanical warrior who follows her, Zanzaburou, was originally the corpse of an ancient god who was sealed away inside Izumo. It is thought that, when Okuni remodelled him into her personal Mystic Code, he lost his original power. Even though he is just a puppet, he appears to protect Okuni of his own volition, with a will of his own.[1]
