{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|A Transient who works part time at the public bathhouse in Asakusa, Taito Ward, Saru no Yu. He attends the high school department of the local school, Umamichi Academy. He was summoned to Tokyo and found there, and he seems to feel a strong attachment and fate there. His looks are frightening and his speech is brusque, and everyone including himself sees him as a gangster. But as a matter of fact he is deeply considerate and compassionate, so he is liked by many of the regular customers of the bathhouse. He himself admits to having a complex about how red his face gets when he's shy. Since he was once caught in a shell and nearly drowned, he likes those who make their work saving people from drowning. He also holds fear and respect for those who stick a lot of shells to themselves.}}

{{#vardefine:transient jp en research file|It is said that anything covered in the bubbles that comes from the shell Sacred Artifact hanging from Sarutahiko's chest can bring back the spark of life to it no matter how weakened they are. Additionally these bubbles, which are the opposite to death and illness, can not only scrub away fallen impurities but have the power to defend against impurities that may fall later. Sarutahiko himself may not be aware of this, but when he started working as a guide in Saru no Yu, it's said that rude and violent customers began to stop appearing there. Thanks to that the business went to flourish on even more. Since he originally worked as a road guide in his home world, he's surprisingly suited to guide people in all things. But on the other hand, he's not suited to guide those who won't listen and are quick to run off.}}

*He is based on [[wikipedia:Sarutahiko_Ōkami|Sarutahiko Ōkami]], the leader of the earthly kami and considered a god of the crossroads on the visage of a monkey.
*In Japanese mythology, Sarutahiko is an earthly deity who offered himself as a guide to the divine grandchild Ninigi, the future father of {{Transient icon|Yamasachihiko}}, and other Shinto deities on their descent from heaven to earth.
*Sarutahiko was described as having a fantastic appearance including red buttocks, which are a prominent characteristic of Japanese macaques.
*His Sacred Artifact is based on the legend that his hand got caught in a shell while fishing and a monkey (macaque) with one hand caught in a shell which is a frequent theme of many Japanese folktales.
** His Sacred Artifact references Aramitama, one of the four [[wikipedia:Mitama|Mitama]], or divine spirit in Shinto religion which represents the wild side of a kami.
