Towa Higurashi is one of the titular main protagonists of the series Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon. She is the eldest daughter of Sesshomaru and Rin, and the older fraternal twin sister of Setsuna.
She is voiced by Sara Matsumoto in the Japanese version and in the English version. The latter also voiced Atsuko "Akko" Kagari, Yuuki Konno, Gon Freecss, Sailor Uranus, Ryūko Matoi, Raphtalia, and Aladdin.
==Appearance==
She has magenta eyes and silver hair with a streak of red in one of her bangs. When she becomes full human, she has brown eyes and black hair. As a full demon, Towa's hair becomes longer, her irises has the same color, her ears become pointed and her fangs becomes more pronounced. On her face, she gains a violet crescent moon on her forehead and some red markings on her cheeks. Her body gives off a bright sky blue aura when using her powers. When not in control of her powers, Towa's eyes become similar to that of her half-uncle's and lacks the crescent moon marking on her forehead, in which the awaking the blood of her grandfather's. In addition, her body gives off a crimson aura instead of her usual light blue aura. Her fingernails also lengthen to claws.
For her outfit, she wears a white male school uniform with purple accents on the blazer, a graphite dress shirt, white pants, brown shoes and belt and a red ribbon as a tie.
==Personality==
Towa is consistently friendly and loyal to her friends and those who seek her help, although she initially required time to adjust to the more deadly nature of Feudal Japan compared to her modern setting. 
Having been raised with love and acceptance in a mostly peaceful world, Towa is more accepting of strange behavior from others and values fighting as a last resort. 
===Manga continuity===
Towa developed differently due to boys finding her scary looking, while girls fawn over her; meaning she never got into fights, and didn't have reason to reject her femine side (as she wears her girls uniform at school). A common occurrence was having to deal with girls with crushes on her, which sadly included her adopted sister Mei. Towa herself shows signs of being into girls, due to the ease she seduced an admirer (whom she needed to bring for an exorcism) and even calling Shiori a babe. This backed up by her showing none of her anime counterparts awkwardness around Riku.
She was also sadder, since Towa's eyes scared off anyone who talked to her; even if Towa was being kind, they assumed she was in a bad mood just from her eyes. Unlike her anime counterpart, Towa is more than willing to kill demons, having been helped by the Higurashi family to exorcise spirits, and snapped a lot easier when confronted with the memory of how she was separated.
==History==
She was transported to the modern era through the power of the Tree of Ages when she was just four-years-old. She received shelter from her uncle's in-laws, the Higurashi family, and was subsequently raised by her half-uncle-in-law, Sōta Higurashi. She is reunited with her sister Setsuna after spending ten years in modern times.
