Oni can create patches of this miasma called 'Yokai Realms' that slow players' ki regeneration and amplify their own.

The Corruption: Many YЕЌkai in Nioh were previously humans consumed and corrupted by kegare, miasmatic spiritual corruption caused by negative emotions.

Chest Monster: Played with - 'Mujina' might hide inside large chests, but aren't malicious by nature unless they are physically provoked or players don't mimic their gesture correctly.

Arrows on Fire: Human and skeleton archers are always armed with these types of arrows.

Although a finisher cannot be used on the latter, attacking their eyes for a stagger can be done multiple times before they die.

Attack Its Weakpoint: 'Yoki' can have their horns shattered (via High Stance) to open them up to a finisher, while 'One-Eyed Oni' can be struck in the eye to stun them momentarily.

Nioh 2 also shows that some Yokai are perfectly reasonable and friendly such as the main character Hide's mother

However, some are more friendly and micschievous, such as the Mujina, who only attacks if you don't copy the emote they do, and the Nurikabe who will vanish without a fight if the correct emote is given. Adaptational Villainy: Traditional YЕЌkai in Japanese folklore are mischievous at best, but the monsters of Nioh are malevolent and vile (some of them are Made of Evil).Action Bomb: If triggered, 'Amrita Yoki' will explode without the Hit Points reaching zero.
