Now Viewing: namazuTag type: Character 鯰 Namazu Namazu, AKA The Unnamed Giant Catfish is a Touhou character. He appears as a boss in Touhou_Hisoutensoku. He is a villainous catfish, an avatar of Taisui Xingjun, a God of Calamity who sent assassins (disguised as familiar characters) to attack Hong_Meiling. His objective, as he claims, was to drain her of her power so that he could move the Earth and return to this world once again. He also spoke quite strongly of his plans to cause various disasters to Gensoukyou. In Japanese mythology, the Namazu (鯰) or Ōnamazu (大鯰) is a giant catfish who causes earthquakes. He lives in the mud under the islands of Japan, and is guarded by the god Kashima who restrains the catfish with a stone. When Kashima lets his guard fall, Namazu thrashes about, causing violent earthquakes. See also: Touhou_Hisoutensoku.
