Minochi

is a Rank D Fire-attribute Yo-kai of the Brave tribe.

The Yo-kai Medallium bio reads; "When he's in love, he gets overly protective of his partner. He can make you a very jealous person."

Appearance
Minochi is a muscular Yo-kai that has a shape of a popped mochi. He is a fair skinned colored Yo-kai, which his appearance appears to be pink hued. He wears a black robe around his waist and has an aggressive look on his face.

Abilities and Powers
When he puffs up his cheeks and exhales a ghastly steam the person he sprays becomes jealous and cannot help but act irrationally as a result. This power can effect entire crowds of Yo-kai as well as humans.

The fact he is a rice cake means he can be eaten in an emergency, but that also allows him to be eaten to submission.

Yo-kai Watch
Minochi appears of the 4th and 13th floors of Springdale Business Tower (Downtown Springdale).

Yo-kai Watch 2
One way to find Micochi is in Gates of Whimsy.

History
Minochi makes a debut in episode 82.

Origin
Minochi's design is based on a wordplay: yakimochi (焼き餅, "roasted mochi", and his Japanese name) is also an idiom for "jealousy". It is unsure how this idiom came to be, but one theory traces it back to a homophony between yaku (妬く, "to be jealous") and yaku (焼く, "to burn, to roast").
