Meaning of Ayakashi

Let's look at the translation of each word and explanation of the anime's name: 

アヤカシ
  • アヤカシ - To be a supernatural being, spirit, or entity that can cause problems or represent evil.
The name of the anime "アヤカシ" refers to the presence of supernatural beings or spiritual entities that play a significant role in the plot. In the context of the synopsis, this concept is directly related to the powers that Yuu Kusaka possesses, which are originated from an ayakashi. These beings not only confer special abilities but also come with a high price, that is, they drain the life of the bearer. Thus, the anime explores Yuu's struggle to balance the use of his power, fulfill his promise of justice, and confront the moral dilemma imposed by the influence of these beings.
