The Nogitsune, also known as Void Stiles, is the main antagonist of Season 3B of the television series Teen Wolf and Teen Wolf: The Movie. It is a dark Kitsune (Japanese trickster spirit) that feeds on strife, pain and misery.
Overview[]
During the 1940s, It was released by the eight hundred year old Kitsune, Noshiko Yukimura and took over the corpse of Noshiko's lover Rhys. However Noshiko eventually defeated it with the help of her werewolf ally, Satomi Ito, and imprisoned in an ancient tree called a Nemeton. It was inadvertently released from the Nemeton in 2012 when it was given more power by Scott McCall, Allison Argent and Stiles Stilinski's surrogate sacrifices. For a while, The Nogitsune took over Stiles' body until it made its own until it was defeated by Scott and Kira Yukimura.
However, in 2026, the Nogitsune was released by Adrian Harris until it's permanent death at the hands of Derek Hale and Jordan Parrish.
Trivia[]
As of now, the Nogitsune is the final antagonist for the series due to the film as well as the uncertain future of the franchise as of 2023.
The Nogitsune is perhaps, one of the most dangerous creatures the McCall pack had ever faced, along with the Anukite. Additionally, despite being defeated twice, it still has a lingering presence among the pack, mostly because it was indirectly responsible for their Packmate Allison Argent as well as Derek Hale's.
Stiles Stilinski still felt guilt for the things he did while he was possessed and under the Nogitsune's influence. This mainly included his indirect role in Allison's first death and the lives he took while under its control.
According to the Anuk-ite's false vision Scott's greatest fear is Void Stiles, as losing his best friend would devastate him.
Derek's demise also leads to Eli being adopted by Scott and Allison.
Lydia was tormented by the creature as well because if her time as his prisoner when he kidnapped her. His abduction of her also lead to Allison's murder, which still caused her great pain to this day.
Noshiko was haunted by the Nogitsune due to it inhabiting the body of Noshiko's former lover, Rhys.
Because of the Nogitsune's actions, Kate Argent has a vendetta against the McCall Pack, blaming them for Allison's demise.
