Yo-kai Medallium biography
"Jibanyan borrows the oni power of Gargaros, he gains cute horns and strange powers, and pretends to be an oni. Perhaps due to his inflated confidence, his Chocobars are consumed quickly."
Hyakki Jibanyan resembles Jibanyan. He has green eyeliner, a yellow horn at the centre of his forehead that resembles Gargaros' and the inside of his ears is now yellow. He has a yellow collar that resembles clouds with a bronze bead at the centre with the kanji "百" (Hyakki/hundred) on it. His haramaki is more golden coloured with a light and dark yellow obijime tied in a patterned knot. He has black arm bands with grey spikes and black shorts. He also has an orange aura similar to Jibanyan S.

Etymology[]
"Hyakki Jibanyan" combines Hyakki (Japanese: 百鬼,Hundred Demons) and Jibanyan.
Origin[]
Hyakki Jibanyan is based on the "百鬼夜行" (Hyakki Yagyō) or "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons" concept which is a well-known theme in Japanese folklore, where supernatural beings are believed to roam the streets during certain nights. His appearance is inspired by Gargaros.
