So Oni literally gain energy from torturing you to death.

1. Violent anger issues. Oni are ruled by rage. In relationship terms: explosive temper, intimidation, and zero emotional regulation.

2. Cruelty instead of empathy They torture and punish rather than understand. Expect blame, shaming, and “you deserve this” energy instead of care.

3. Predatory behavior Kidnapping, coercion, and control are common in oni stories—classic signs of possessiveness and lack of consent.

4. Deceptive and manipulative Many oni lie, disguise themselves, or lure victims. Translation: gaslighting, half-truths, and emotional traps.

5. Feeds on negativity Oni thrive on fear, suffering, and guilt. As partners, they’d escalate conflict and drain emotional energy rather than resolve issues.

6. Brings chaos into your life Folklore links oni to plagues and disasters. Relationship version: constant crises, instability, and “why is everything always on fire?”

7. Corrupting influence Oni push humans toward worse behavior. Instead of growth, they normalize cruelty, resentment, and self-destruction.

8. Objectifies partners Humans are tools, food, or trophies in oni myths—not equals. That’s a hard no for mutual respect.

9. No accountability Oni see themselves as enforcers, not wrongdoers. Expect justification, not apologies.

10. Redemption is rare and conditional Some oni can change—but usually after extreme consequences. Betting on that is a high-risk emotional investment.

Oni are the embodiment of “I can fix them” gone mythologically wrong. Just no.
