The Fruit Witches are characters who inhabit the Flower Path of Joshua's dungeon. They encourage people to eat fruit on their path, serving as a means to succumb to their lusts.

== Appearance == The Fruit Witches are depicted as alluring, feminine figures with a sinister undertone. They possess striking greenish skin and piercing cat-like eyes. Each witch is adorned in simple yet elegant attire: white tops and skirts, with long, flowing ribbons wrapped intricately around their bodies. They are always barefoot, emphasizing their connection to the natural, albeit corrupted, environment of the Flower Path. A distinctive and unsettling feature is the black, parasitic creature nestled in each witch's hair. These creatures have malevolent red, cross-shaped pupils and mouths lined with sharp teeth.

• Ringo: The eldest, likely in her early 30s, Ringo is recognizable by her long brown hair and pastel yellow ribbons. She stands at an estimated 5'5'' (165 cm) and weighs approximately 125 lb (57 kg). Her demeanor suggests a quiet command, fitting for a leader.
• Banane: Appearing to be in her late 20s, Banane sports long blonde hair and pastel red ribbons. She is the tallest of the trio, standing at about 5'7'' (170 cm) and weighing around 130 lb (59 kg). Her refined appearance hints at her haughty personality.
• Mure: The youngest, likely in her mid-20s, Mure is characterized by her short dark blue hair and pastel blue ribbons. She is the shortest at roughly 5'4'' (163 cm) and weighs approximately 120 lb (54 kg). Her slightly disheveled look, particularly her longer hair in the episode compared to production art, reinforces her tomboyish nature.

== Personality == At first glance, the Fruit Witches project an aura of calm, serenity, and benevolence, utilizing this deceptive charm as their primary method of ensnaring passersby. This initial facade masks their truly predatory nature. The trio is sisters, a bond that seemingly does little to temper their ruthlessness.

• Ringo: As the unspoken leader of the group, Ringo exhibits a shy and reserved demeanor. This quietness might be a calculated part of her seductive strategy, making her seem more approachable and less overtly threatening than her sisters. Her leadership suggests a cunning and strategic mind beneath her gentle exterior.
• Banane: Characterized by her haughty and somewhat spoiled rich kid persona, Banane likely carries an air of superiority. Her elegance and refined appearance complement this personality, perhaps making her seem like a damsel in distress or a more "civilized" threat.
• Mure: In contrast to her sisters, Mure is decidedly more of a tomboy. This might manifest as a more direct or less overtly feminine approach to charming their victim, or a more aggressive stance once their true nature is revealed. In some depictions, her unkempt hair subtly hints at this less refined personality.

The witches' capacity for extreme cruelty is evident in their actions; they demonstrate a chilling lack of empathy and friendship, shown explicitly when they do not hesitate to turn on and consume one of their own. Their feeding of the black creatures residing in their hair strongly suggests a symbiotic, or even parasitic, relationship where the creatures may control or heavily influence the witches' actions. The true nature of these creatures, whether they are an intrinsic part of the witches' physiology, their genuine forms, or merely a separate entity acting as a lure, remains a mystery, adding to the unsettling depth of these characters.

== Abilities == The Fruit Witches possess several supernatural capabilities that aid in their predatory lifestyle. They can levitate, allowing for silent and ethereal movement through their environment. Their most potent offensive ability is activated once a victim consumes their enchanted fruit: the witches enter a terrifying zombie-like state and begin to feed on the unfortunate individual. Furthermore, their transformation from beautiful maidens coincides with the Flower Path turning dark and deadly, suggesting they possess the power to alter victims' perceptions, crafting the illusion of a safe and inviting environment to lure their prey. The sisters also have an innate charm that allows them to effortlessly captivate anyone they encounter.
