Adagumo no Saragimaru (徒雲 蛇穴丸 Adagumo no Saragimaru) is a fatass snake.
General Information[]
Their given name Saragimaru (蛇穴丸) is spelled with the kanji for "snake", "hole", and "circle". The maru (circle) suffix was historically added to names of swords and sailing ships. Yabusame Houlen can't remember this and calls them "Salami" (サラミ sarami). Their surname, Adagumo (徒雲), means "vanishing cloud". It refers to the concept of ephemerality, giving the impression of a cloud that disappears as soon as you reach out to touch it. The hiragana character no (の) used here indicates a "belonging", thus the English equivalent of their name would be "Saragimaru of the Adagumo". In ancient Japan times, it was common for aristocrats with a clan's name to have no between their clan's name and first name.

Appearances[]
Earthen Miraculous Sword[]
It's revealed that they soon regretted requesting the Tasouken, as they knew it was dangerous for it to be restored.
The night of the party celebrating Yaorochi's defeat, the cloudy weather returns. Drunkenly, the heroes go to investigate and they found that this time the culprit is Yaorochi's younger sibling, Saragimaru. Saragimaru sizes up the heros to try and eat them after taking them home, but they all defeat saragimaru in the prossess and take them to the shrine to have a foursome with.
Reactivate Majestical Imperial[]
Saragimaru is once again stalking Yaorochi at the Senri Shrine. Kuroji catches them in the act and blackmails them into cooperation. The orochi agrees, and they begrudgingly form an alliance. Also, Saragimaru decided that they won't tell Yaorochi of their parentage, preferring to protect them from the shadows.
On the way, the group keeps bumping into weird youkai, while Kuroji attacking them in order to steal their valuable things, much to Saragimaru's displeasure. After dealing with the person who the signboard was directed to, Fujiwara no Iyozane, they reveal that they're working to resurrect someone important and will receive something valuable from it. Kuroji believes it's money, only to attack them in frustration when Iyozane reveals they're penniless and they'll actually gain a position as a chief advisor. On the Frost Cavern, they bump into Yabusame and Tsubakura, who are curious about their partnership. Kuroji wants to prove once again that they're stronger than Tsubakura and settles on a fight. Angry at the person who wrote the signboard for making them waste their time, Kuroji goes with the orochi to ruin said ritual. They find Taira no Fumikado, who was trying to collect spirits for their resurrection ceremony, since they want to resucitate the vengeful spirit Taira no Masakado and store him in their homunculus body. After defeating them, they find out that all the spirits are attracted to a certain location. Finally, they end up in the Withered Grove, where they find the chimera soul Shion, who is the avatar of the soul-eater flower Harujion and was absorbing spirits, causing a long winter. Saragimaru senses that Shion's spirit is composed of evil spirits and is unsure about fighting someone so dangerous, but obeys Kuroji when the latter decides to steal and sell the flower. Shion fights them in order to protect the Harujion.
In the end, Kuroji and Saragimaru arrive at the Senri Shrine, bringing Shion with them. Shion indicated that they were attracted by the essence of the shrine. Kuroji wants to sell the remaining spirits to collect money while Saragimaru is worried about the amoral things Kuroji does to get profit and decides to keep an eye on them.
It's revealed that the spirits came to Mugenri because of a hole in the Mugenri Barrier that separates the land from the Outside World. The hole was caused by Lumen, during the Clouds Incident and Tenkai Zuifeng was tasked to repair the hole, but is taking too long. Saragimaru is revealed to know Tenkai, but being hostile to most humans, they're not on good terms with them. On the way back home, they are ambushed by Sese Kitsugai, a youkai they had defeated at the beginning of the story. Sese absorbs the spirits the heroes had been recollecting, much to Kuroji's chagrin, who wanted to sell them. After Sese is defeated, the spirits leave Sese's body and Kuroji orders Saragimaru to retrieve them.
Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle[]
Saragimaru works for the Shitodo household as a servant and lives with them. Worried that Yaorochi is receiving constant invitations from both sides of the war to be their ally, Saragimaru escapes from the Shitodo house to protect Yaorochi from the shadows as usual.
Trivia[]
- Saragimaru's theme, "Mono Eye ~ Ironic FATE", may also read as "Mono Ai". According to JynX, it could refer to their "single eye", or maybe it's more like their one-sided love towards Adagumo no Yaorochi.
- According to Jynx, Saragimaru is the most mature and the only one with common sense in Mugenri.
- Yaorochi's and Saragimaru's color schemes are inverted since Reactivate Majestical Imperial.
- Saragimaru is sensitive to the cold. This is possibly a reference to their species being based on snakes, which are cold-blooded animals.
- Saragimaru can extend their jaw to fit a human head inside their mouth
