Higan (悲岸) is a character that has yet to make a formal debut in Deep-Sea Prisoner's creations. She is a fiend, the child of Daimonji and Cosmea, and mother of her unnamed daughter.
Physical Description[]
Higan has raceless pale skin and red eyes with slit irises. She also has three pairs of yellow eyes with red scleras, each respective pair having an eye on the left and right sides of her hair near the top of her head. Her hair is jet black, overflowing and messy, covering her whole body. Her horns are curved and black, blending into her hair. A deviant blood-red colored halo can be seen floating above her horns. Higan wears a black dress with a red bow right below the collar. Her body takes a spectral form, making her dress and hair indistinguishable and giving it an abstract appearance. Her hands, distinguishable from her remaining body, are also pale in color, and her long sharp nails are dark red. Her body is also abundantly covered with round yellow eyes with a red outline and slit irises. Her body leaves a small trail appearing to be similar to a demon tail in appearance as well. As seen in her image, she floats around due to having no feet.
Personality[]
Higan carries a bit of a creepy aura; illustrations depict her with wide eyes and/or creepy smiles. It has also been shown her speech ends with katakana, instead of the usual hiragana. This gets localized as ending her speech with capital letters. Not much else is currently known about Higan's personality.

Trivia[]
- Higan's name means "grieving shore" in Japanese. [4]
- Her name comes from Higanbana, the red spider lily flower.
- In one banner, her father Daimonji is seen standing next to a sprouting red spider lily with petals of what appears to be cosmos, indicative of Higan's mother Cosmea.
- The flower her name originates from means "sad memories", "independence," "giving up," and "passion" in Hanakotoba, the Japanese language of flowers. [5]
- In Buddhist traditions, the red spider lily is associated with death. As such, the flowers are planted at graves as a tribute to the dead. [6]
- In Japanese, there are two words pronounced as "higan." The first - 彼岸 (equinoctial week) - is a period in which it is believed the spirits of the dead can cross the river from the other world to this world. The other word - 悲願 - means one's dearest wish.
