Higanbana (彼岸花 Higanbana) is the titular character of Higanbana no Saku Yoru ni and one of the main protagonists. She holds the Third Rank of the school youkai.

Profile

School Youkai of the Third Rank. The Dancing Higanbana. It is said that in the middle of the night a doll dances atop of the cabinets of the infirmary. Cursing and injuring others, she is the infirmary's master.

She is feared even by other youkai for her brutality. However, Marie sees through her demonic persona and the two somehow get along.

She spends her days in the infirmary usually eating steamed buns while watching anime late into the night.

Higanbana's formal dress. She hasn't worn it lately because it tends to cause her shoulder to stiffen up. This dress looks much more similar looking to the one she wears as a doll than the one she normally wears.

Despite being the subject of a frightening ghost story, and being particularly notorious among the students, she's actually quite slobbish. Lying around on the infirmary bed and watching late night anime is part of her nightly routine.

Quite different from the unnerving image of a doll dancing the night away that the children know her for.

(Translated by Spider Lily Translations.)

She is usually quite lonely, since very few people come to visit her in the infirmary. Despite being the subject of a frightening ghost story, and being particularly notorious among the students, she's actually quite slobbish. Lying around on the infirmary bed and watching late night anime is part of her nightly routine.
