Happy with his new environment, he accepts Zeniba's proposal to stay with her as an apprentice. Perhaps attempting to match the rules of the new tiny society, No-Face starts spinning and knitting and appears proficient in the job. Towards the end of the film, No-Face meets with Zeniba, another witch who works alone, in contrast to Yubaba, who runs her bathhouse with a complex hierarchy. At this stage, No-Face is no longer aggressive and is quite docile, even obeying Chihiro's orders, like "sit" and "behave yourself."Īs a monstrous, out-of-control being, No-Face exhibits all the negative traits of those he had swallowed (most significantly, Aogaeru), becoming a brash, arrogant, loud, and selfish creature whose obsession with Chihiro proved troubling for everyone around it. She accepts him as a co-journeyer into the train ride on her way to Swamp Bottom after he calms down and is out of the Bathhouse. He becomes extremely volatile after being fed the River Spirit's emetic dumpling by Chihiro, and while fleeing from the obviously now-hostile spirit, Chihiro calls out to him twice to follow her. No-Face becomes obsessed with Chihiro, and wants to see her and her only. While this ultimately brought upon the opposite effect, Chihiro was somewhat true to No-Face after she invited him and accepted help from him. Not knowing much about the Bathhouse or about other spirits in general, No-Face learned by example and adapted to his surroundings.Įxposed to the corruptive thoughts and greed of the workers, he quickly grew to encompass their personalities, hoping that his endeavor to be like those around Chihiro would eventually garner her affection for him. His vocabulary consisted of grunts and moans as opposed to coherent words. No-Face is a lonely spirit who begins to follow Chihiro Ogino after having developed an interest in her sincerity.
An ominous, expressionless mask with grey-violet highlights is painted on his "head" of sorts, and while there is a "mouth" painted on the mask, No-Face has shown that his real, expertly-hidden mouth is larger than the one present on his mask. While it is unknown if No-Face has a physical body, it is shown that he can develop arms and legs with the capability of leaving footprints as he walks. His figure resembles that of a long, black tube. His organs are visible, pulsating in several states. When first introduced, No-Face appeared in a semi-transparent state while shifting in and out of visibility.
