Haku talking to Chichiyaku
Chichiyaku (父役, chichiyaku) is a minor character in the Japanese animated film Spirited Away. He serves as a manager for the Bathhouse under Yubaba. Chichiyaku, among many of the other spirits, first treats Chihiro Ogino with discontent due to her being a human, but gradually comes to accept and even cheer for her as she helps the unnamed River Spirit and saves the Bathhouse from No-Face. He was one of the beloved characters created for Spirited Away.
Appearance
Chichiyaku has orange eyes, salmon-orange skin, and a small, reddish-orange mustache. Like many of the bathhouse workers, he resembles a frog.
