Yo-kai Watch Shadowside anime
In SS001, she was mentioned when Shutendoji talked about searching for someone whom he refers to as a Princess.

In later episodes, it's revealed that The Princess is currently living as a normal human and that her true powers can only be awakened by collected all five Youseiken.

In SS037, after Natsume uses mysterious abilities to defeat Soranaki and showcases massive amounts of Oni tribe yo-kai energy, Haruya claims that she is the reincarnation of The Princess that he had been looking for.

Douketsu explains that The Princess' true name is, and that she was a powerful ruler from the Oni tribe. She ruled the Yo-Kai World in the era before the Enma Clan emerged.

Etymology
is an old-fashioned, alternate word for "summer", highlighting her connection to Natsume.

In the past, it has also been used to mean "april", which is the month during which cherry blossoms commonly bloom in Japan. This reflects her motif of blooming cherry blossoms.
