Design

Kaya-no-Hime is a reworked version of an unused design from Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse.

According to designer Masayuki Doi, Kaya-no-Hime resembles a straw doll as a reference to the Japanese word "Kaya," which refers to the dried straws used in thatch roofs. Her clothing is reminiscent of traditional Japanese garments, and the "Hime" in her name inspired her "somewhat naïve" look, which was intended to give the impression of an oblivious princess.

Kaya-no-Hime's design in Giten Megami Tensei: Tokyo Revelation is that of a earth worm. The sprite used is reused from the demon Worm.
