Oroku

Oroku (おろく), also called Granny Oroku (おろく婆, Oroku Bā or Oroku Bāchan ) or Oroku the Fireball (火の玉のおろく, Hi no Tama no Oroku), is a character in 1994's film by Studio Ghibli's Pom Poko. She is peacekeeper of the Raccoons Dogs. She is rational and wise, and very strong-willed. All the tanukis respect her and call her "grandmother". At the end of the film, she becomes a fortune teller.

Appearance
Oroku is a grey tanuki with black hair pinned neatly, and a red kimono. In human form, she looks almost exactly the same, but has the appearance of a middle-aged woman.

Voice actor
Oroku was voiced by Nijiko Kiyokawa and Tress MacNeille in English.

Trivia

 * The design of Oroku may be based on either Kimono Tanuki from Gegege no Kitarō series or Tanuki Girl, as Shigeru Mizuki cooperated the film production and offered designs of some Yōkai.
