A stinky-stick, hm? ...come to think of it, what is bathroom/outhouse technology like at this point?

Truly honorable people like the Kami themselves simply do not shit.

For the flawed mortals, there is the garden.

Oblivious to all this kami stuff

So very much in sync with the elemental spirits, since they are also very oblivious to human stuff.

Bamboo and silk (竹帛) were apparently the main medium of writing before paper was invented. It's likely short texts that are not destined to be kept are still written on bamboo sticks.

So, does Nozomi have her own crow, or does she share custody of it with Shinsei?

According to the Imperial Archives , most of the "young ones" of today are actually about the same age as most followers of the Kami were when they met the gods of the first time and entered the legend. For example, Kinsen was 17 at the time. (weirdly, according to the same archive, Sora was 21, whi...

Is Satsuki and Kinsen's hair made...of metal!?

Some do say the blade of Kazuhiro of the Noriaki broke on the golden mane of Kinsen during their fateful face-off twenty years ago.

Where the story ends and where the legend begins, that I don't know.

I fail to see how ropes made of gold and silver hair would facilitate trade.

I mean....we are going to run out of flammable materials eventually.

Everything is flammable if the flame is hot enough.

For any event requiring several players organizing it (for example an exhibition match between two swordmasters), how is influence awarded? Shared as evenly as possible?

I'm kind of surprised the tailor-made kimono Ayumu weaved for Kinsen with what we had at hand at the time (lit. on the trip to the Shadowlands, by recycling other clothes) is still in one piece after fifteen years. If anything, it proves Kinsen has kept her good physcis in her old age. Or that the f...
