Special Note: In the Human World, Koenma has the appearance of an adult?

In the Spirit World, the figure with a pacifier in his mouth is already familiar. But, when he comes down to the Human World, he somehow takes the form of a handsome young man! Nevertheless, there is serious reason why he still hasn't removed the pacifier...In the Spirit World, the word "JR" is on his hat, but in the Human World, it is written on his forehead and can be seen through the gaps of his parted bangs. It would be more convenient to stay in this form in the Spirit World, but does it consume spirit power and is tiring?

T/N: In the manga, during the Black Chapter Arc, we see Botan leaving her "avatar" behind and flying with her spiritual body, her true body, to the Spirit World. I wonder if Koenma has an adult avatar and whether it really consumes spirit energy to stay inside this "doll". It would be weird to have a baby avatar in the same shape of his true form. Youkai at the Dark Tournament would have made fun of him, hehe. Still, there's the possibility he doesn't use the same Botan's avatar method to come down to the Human World. The Spirit World works in mysterious ways!

The Character Book is full of these "Special Notes", but it's hard to tell if they reflect Togashi's opinions or if they are just theories from the JUMP editorial department. Either way, I think they are really interesting and make sense.

I've translated some others special notes from the databook:

Shishiwakamaru's Real Form!?

Youko Kurama, a beautiful figure before reincarnation!

Hiei's Jaganshi Form (theory about why he didn't take on the green transformation anymore)

Yusuke Urameshi, descendant of the mazoku blood!

Happy mothers day

•People who are loyal to one another because they have done sexual acts with each other make terrible leaders. NEVER pick them. That’s playground play. They are bad for business. You may end up cursed.

•If all you do is bash someone then “act” nice in their presence, you my dear, are a MEOW. Don’t talk about them. You may end up cursed. That’s not friendship. That’s not family. Shh. 🤫

•If all you do is worry about someone who clearly has no room for you in their life, practice self-control. Control your impulses.

•People who are 5 in the brain at their adult age need mental health help and some honesty. Give them honesty at least.

•At 5, I was 12. At 12, I was 16. At 16, I was 18. At 18, I was 22. At 22, I was 35. At the age of 25, now, I am 40. I’ve always been a little mature, despite psychology. That’s a good thing. I really do have an old soul and I’m very much youthful and full of life. It sucks to be draining. You won’t catch me being draining at all. I’m just not like most people.

•I always speak my mind. I apologize too, if I offend.

•If bad is good to you and good is bad, you need help. Get in alignment with the lord because you are not in alignment with him.

•Biting your tongue sometimes will take you far. It may have others thinking you are a meow, but when they finally see it, which is the afterlife, it will be too late. You’ll really have the peace you may be looking for.

•Doing something ONCE can make or break you. If there is no clarity and others who don’t like you control the narrative, you will be irritated, but if the lord is in control, he will control the narrative. Supernatural things may happen to prove you indeed had your own thing to figure out.

•When you try to go to the source of drama in your life, and that source plays with you, drop them like a bad habit.

•Jealousy is one hell of a drug. That’s (⬇️) how y’all look. Try to be human about it. Pray about it. At least you’d be praying. Therapy also works.

•The 2-3 ee (Evergreen) who started this mess have no idea who they were dealing with. They’ll end up dead thinking it was witchcraft. What goes around always comes back around. That country shit should have stayed in the country. They real apparently, so my face needs to be respected.

Remember, I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I am a princess of the kingdom. My family comes from the countryside and they’re not country either. Play with your mothers and families, not me.

•The lord doesn’t miss.

•The lord is always around when you are not.

•At some point, I’ve represented myself, my family, my community, and the lord at once. I’ve done well. I’m waiting for the lord. Suiv.

•Trying to be careful of how you approach certain matters isn’t mind games. You’re just so use to playing mind games you’re paranoid it’s being done to you all of the time.

•At some point in time, I’ve handled relationships based off my dreams that were definitely the lord. I was careful. Here we are. Suiv.

•At some point in time, going out (parties & recreation), something supernatural was going on with me. So, I stayed indoors. Those changes had to be monitored. Prayer was also mandatory for guidance. Suiv.

•As the face and voice of the family, you can’t get to them without going through me in some way shape or form first.
