Jinsuke "Spider" Jinbari

About

Jinsuke is a spider-demon who tagged along with the monk Sougen after being rejected from his pack. He is deeply in love with Sougen and introduces himself as his husband, to Sougen's annoyance. At first Jinsuke is terrified of females (having heard that female spiders eat the males after mating), but that starts to subside after meeting Nabeshima the nekomata and becoming her friend. Jinsuke occasionally goes through shedding, after which he grows physically as well.
