Kisume is a rather shy youkai who usually spends her time in buckets. As a midboss with no dialogue and a rather sparse official profile, little is known about her, but she seems rather childish. She is often seen in dark places such as caves or wells.

Fun Facts

  • Tsurube otoshi (lit. bucket dropper) are a type of youkai believed to have originated in the Chuubu region of Japan. They usually live atop trees, and when humans come close to the tree a bucket or a severed head drops down and eats them. They are also sometimes depicted as flaming spirits.Moreover, the meaning "The sunset of autumn is instant" has the expression of "Aki no hi wa Turube otoshi(An Autumn Day is the one like the dropped bucket. )" in Japanese.
  • According to ZUN, her name is written in katakana to give it an old feel, and it's not written in kanji because "that would make her seem too strong."
  • Upon the release of the demo of Subterranean Animism, fans immediately dubbed Kisume "Bucket Ranka," named after Ranka Lee from Macross Frontier.
  • Western fans dubbed her "Bucket Loli".
  • Fan artists interpret the clothes she's wearing inside the bucket as either a white collared blouse or a gi.
  • Perhaps due to her sharing the same stage as Yamame Kurodani, fanworks with her and Yamame and, somehow, Parsee Mizuhashi, are common.
  • Another recent meme has Kisume depicted in fan art with her bucket humorously containing everything she needs to stay alive as well as numerous luxuries, thus making sure she never has to leave it. This parallels the character Sheldon from Jim Davis's U.S. Acres comic strip (also animated as part of Garfield and Friends), a baby chick who refuses to hatch out of his egg but has everything he needs inside of it, though the similarities may be coincidental.
