PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
DESCRIPTION

Another ugly pathetic soul?"
HAKAMORI AS IT SEES ISAMU FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME.

Hakamori (墓守はかもり: Hakamori) is a minor character in Jealousy's Book: Chapter III. The sole purpose of Hakamori is to assist Isamu when he enters new areas and hint at what the objective is to proceed to the next area. However, during Shinigami's final chase sequence, she is seen helping Shinigami in his attempt to kill Isamu.

Hakamori is not considered an evil character, as she does not try to prevent Isamu from reaching his objective. Although she does insult him at the beginning and assists Shinigami in his chase sequence to get Isamu, Hakamori provides major hints to the areas she is in.

Unknown as of now. However, she might get a backstory.

Jealousy's Book

Chapter III

Cavern of Wealth - To activate Hakamori, you must interact with a certain part of the ground. Once you are close enough, you will see a prompt. Hakamori will then emerge from the ground and insult Isamu before explaining to him how to get past the temple.
The Abandoned Village - Hakamori will appear from the grass if you interact with the prompt (when you are close enough) and explain to Isamu how to escape the swamp.
Yurei's Mori - Just like in the Abandoned Village, Hakamori will explain what you need to do to proceed. It will also mention that this is the final layer.
Shinigami's Lair - If you turn around at the end of the chase sequence right before you exit hell (Jigoku), Hakamori can be seen chasing Isamu with Shinigami riding her. This might imply that they did not want him to leave Jigoku

ほやほや、やって来たね〜！"
"Hoyahoya, yattekita ne~!"
"Hoya-hoya, Look what we have here!"

Hakamori laughs when she emerges from the ground to help Isamu. When you do see her dialogue, she does not emit any sound.

Deleted Voice Lines

The bold English texts are her official in-game dialogues while the English texts above the bold ones are translation from the original Japanese script.

"新たな不幸な魂よ。しかしお前は何だか様子が違うな…"
"Aratana fukōna tamashī-yo. shikashi omae wa nandaka yōsu ga chigauna..."
"A new unfortunate soul... but you're a little off."
"Another unlucky soul... however you seem a bit different."

"お前の死... さては自然な人間の死ではなかったようだね？"
"Omae no shi... Sate wa shizen'na ningen no shide wa nakatta yōda ne?"
"Your death... Well, doesn't seem like a natural human death, does it?"
"Your death... it wasn't a natural human death?"

"一体どういうことなんだ？！"
"Ittai dōiu koto nanda?!"
"What is going on?!"
"How can this be?"

"お前のような単なる人間が炎図界とどのような関係を持っているというのかい?"
"Omae no yōna tan'naru ningen ga Enzukai to dono yōna kankei wo motte iru to iu no kai?"
"What kind of relationship does a mere human like you have with Enzukai?"
"What sort of connection does a mere human like you have with Enzukai?"
HAKAMORI

"ふん、私がお前に特別な居場所を用意してやろう。"
"Funn, Watashi wa omae ni tokubetsuna ibasho wo yōi shite yarou."
"Hmm, I'll prepare a special place for you."
"Well, I guess I do have a special place for you in hell."

Hakamori seems to only appear in the hardest levels where players would need the most help.
Hakamori is the only monster that appears the most in a specific chapter.
Hakamori was originally the gatekeeper for Keneo's Minka before her role was replaced by Gozu and Mezu.[1]
In the third line of the conversation between Hakamori and Isamu, the line was intentionally mistranslated to English due to the fact that the original Japanese line she said was a line of profanity, which violates Roblox's term of service if it was translated correctly to English.
Hakamori shares her voice actress with Kuishinbo.
Hakamori was originally named "Amanojaku" (天邪鬼), meaning "heavenly evil spirit". Her name was later changed to "Hakamori" (墓守), literally meaning "Grave keeper". The change for her name was possibly due to the fact that her design had nothing in common with a creature which shares the same name with her in Japanese folklore.
This makes her one of the few in-game characters whose official names have been changed at least once, the other characters are The Four Beasts (excluding Kintoru).
Before Hakamori was given a name by the Lore Writers, her name was "Babyface" in development during testing phases.
According to a lore writer named Shaowei, the scrapped name "Amanojaku" was suggested by a testing lead and was then used by lore writers, the name was then changed due to a member from the community named Thunder discussing about how Hakamori’s concept did not fit in any way with the Yokai baring the name "Amanojaku".
