Gamin (餓眠, Gamin) was a group of five bodiless, floating head yokais originally known as the Hitouban family. A long time ago, they came from the continent (Asia) and eventually settled at Shirazu Hill. At this location, they were able to easily find and eat human prey, until Mikado Hizaki came along and sealed them beneath the Keystone. This is where they remained for many years, their grudge steadfast and their hatred for Mikado building. Eventually, in modern times, a local construction project led to the removal of the Keystone, and the subsequent release of the Gamin. Once freed, they sought to devour Mikado as an act of revenge, though she had long passed by this point. Realizing as much, the Gamin settled on the idea of eating any of her living descendants instead, but were defeated by Tora and Ushio Aotsuki before they could do so.
