| abstract | - Users either are or can transform into a Kuchisake-Onna (Slit-Mouthed Woman) a figure appearing in Japanese urban legends. She is a woman who was mutilated by her husband, and returns as a malicious spirit. According to the legend, children walking alone at night may encounter a woman wearing a surgical mask, which is not an unusual sight in Japan as people wear them to protect others from their colds or sickness. The woman will stop children and ask, "Am I pretty?" If the child answers no, they are killed with a pair of scissors which the woman carries. If the child answers yes, the woman pulls away the mask, revealing that her mouth is slit from ear to ear, and asks "How about now?" If the child answers no, they will be cut in half. If the child answers yes, then she will slit their mouth like hers. It is impossible to run away from her, as she will simply reappear in front of the victim.
