Ushio Aotsuki (蒼月潮, Aotsuki Ushio) is the protagonist of the Ushio and Tora series. He is the fourteen-year-old son of Shigure Aotsuki and Sumako Aotsuki, and resides with his father in Fugen'in, a temple which belongs to the Aotsuki lineage. As he was told that his mother is deceased and his father is often away, Ushio usually lives alone until he frees Tora, the youkai who was trapped in his temple's hidden basement for 500 years.
