Some mention should be made of the differences between the Yuki Onna and the Yuki Jourou ("Snow Harlot"), a snow spirit that kills for pleasure and sex.
Probably some mention should also be made regarding the Tsurara Onna ("Icicle Woman"), who primarily is a harmless trickster spirit.

 The Hour of the Ox
While the legends of the Yuki Onna (aside from the version by Lafcadio Hearn) describe her as a kind and caring soul, there is another snow spirit that is decidedly more lethal and murderous.
The Yuki Jorō and the Yuki Onna are often confused, even though Yuki never takes a life willingly, something that her darker counterpart is all too happy to do.
The most famous stories attributed to her (or misattributed to Yuki) are that of the snow mother (a weakened mother asks a traveler to hold her baby just for a second while she adjusts her robe, and when the unwary victim takes the baby, said victim is instantly frozen solid).

 [ELFWOOD] SF&F Art / Albert M. Sorrentino Jr. / 'Yuki Onna'
Considered to be a yoma (evil spirit), she is likely the one behind the Hearn Yuki Onna story (one 16th century kabuki play shows her as pretending to be Yuki Onna in order to ruin Yuki's good name).
It is a beautiful picture, but it is also important to know that the story told by Lafcadio Hearn in his book Kwaidan is considered a flawed version of the Yuki Onna tale.
Anyway finally I decided to try and turn Yuki Onna's story into a comic book told from her perspective...I hope to someday!!

The girl said that her name was O-Yuki (yuki means snow; this is a common female name), that she had lately lost both of her parents, and that she was going to Yedo, where she happened to have some poor relations, who might help her to find a situation as servant.
And the natural end of the matter was that Yuki never went to Yedo at all.
Minokichi soon felt charmed by this strange girl; and the more that he looked at her, the handsomer she appeared to be.

She almost regretted telling the Snow Woman about her convoluted history with Ranma and his "other fiancees." Yuki- onna seemed to take each of Ranma's affronts personally, whether they were intentional or, as was most often the case, circumstantial.
Yuki-onna had certainly scolded her often enough about wasting her time thinking about a man who had brought so much misery into her life and who, in all likelihood, wouldn't even be around by the time she could finally return home.
She's thinking about her fiance again.* Yuki- onna's frost-blue eyes narrowed angrily.

Those are really good theories, theres so many things to think of in sailor moon, I think everyone has a different opinion on how and why something happened.

Akane didn't *need* to see Ranma through the mirror, for she saw the look in Yuki- onna's eyes, she saw the fear for Ranma that lay there, and her heart would twist painfully with the dreadful certainty that Ranma was in grave danger, that he was probably hurt or wounded in some way...
It didn't matter that, whenever Yuki-onna emerged from her chambers after scrying through her mirror, her frost-blue eyes were dark and clouded with unspoken worry.
The Snow Woman's continued silence on the matter ensured that small comfort.
