Long ago, in The Time of Myths, the eight-headed serpent Orochi lorded over the village of Kamiki, demanding a sacrifice every year on the night of the full moon. During the weeks before the day on which the sacrifice was chosen, a large white wolf — dubbed Shiranui by the villagers — would be spotted roaming the outskirts of the village. Many of the villagers suspected that Shiranui was Orochi's familiar. One warrior, Nagi, made it his mission to slay the wolf, but every time they met, Shiranui would manage to get away.On the night of the 100th sacrifice, a maiden by the name of Nami — whom Nagi harbored strong feelings for — was selected to be offered to Orochi. Refusing to accept this, Nagi traveled to Orochi's cave to destroy the monster. However, Orochi proved to be far too strong for Nagi, and it appeared that he would kill the man.But when Orochi was about to deal the final blow, a howl was heard. Shiranui appeared and fought Orochi in Nagi's place, proving an equal match for the serpent. In the end, the wolf gave her life so that Nagi could triumph. In Shiranui's honor, a shrine was constructed in Kamiki Village and the sword that slew Orochi, dubbed Tsukuyomi, was sealed away in the snake's cave in order to prevent his revival. All the while, the villagers never realized that, in reality, the wolf was sun goddess Amaterasu in physical form.100 years after these events, someone foolishly removes Tsukuyomi from Orochi's cave, allowing Orochi to revive himself and spread his influence over Nippon.Sakuya, wood sprite and guardian of Kamiki Village, realized that something needed to be done and revived Amaterasu's body so that she may defeat Orochi once more. However, Nippon's faith in the gods has declined over the century, leaving Amaterasu greatly weakened. Adding the fact that Nagi's descendant, Susano, appears to be useless, it looks like it will be a severely uphill battle for Amaterasu to defeat Orochi...And that's just the beginning of the game.Made by Clover Studio and released in 2006, ÅŒkami is an action/adventure game in the vein of The Legend of Zelda series, except using classic Japanese Mythology and folklore as the basis of its setting. Players take on the role of Amaterasu, a Physical Goddess who takes on the form of a white wolf to battle the forces of darkness that are sweeping across ancient Japan. She wields a magic paintbrush that can be used to alter reality and is accompanied by a tiny loudmouth named Issun. Amaterasu and Issun travel across Japan fighting evil, gaining new magical powers, meeting a cast of odd and eccentric characters, and living out the "true stories" behind many of Japan's most famous myths.A sequel was released for Nintendo DS by the name of Ōkamiden, starring Amaterasu's son Chibiterasu.In 2008, Capcom released a port of the game for the Platform/Wii which incorporated the Wii's motion controls for the Celestial Brush. Sadly, this version removed the credits sequence because it contained the original company's logo. In 2009, an improved version of the Wii port was released in Japan, which fixes most of the issues regarding the motion controls and the combat system, as well as including the removed credits sequence back in the game.In 2010, Amaterasu joined the playable roster of Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Before that, in 2008, Yami showed up as the Final Boss of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom.In 2012, Capcom released an HD version of the original game for the Playstation 3 supporting Move controls. In 2017, Capcom released a newer HD version of the original game for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC with 4K compatibility, releasing on December 12. In 2018, Capcom released a port for Nintendo Switch which incorporated both motion controls and touch controls.Not to be confused with SenjÅ� no ÅŒkami. | |

Elemental Baggage | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_10ad7cfe | comment |
Elemental Baggage: Paintbrush techniques can pull various elements across the screen. Interestingly, late-game weapons double as literal Elemental Baggage - if you need a stream of fire, you can just pull it from your flaming disc weapon. Which uses up a whole lot less ink then making it appear out of thin air. Same goes for your final rosary and glaive; Her rosary contains the ice element while her glaive contains thunder. As far as techniques that have you connecting two targets on-screen with a line, this just leaves the water power (which was obsolete in just about every way but one at that point) and the vine power (which was incredibly circumstantial and was mainly used for transportation). | |

Secret A.I. Moves: Shiranui is capable of using upgraded versions of Ammy's Celestial Brush Techniques, as well as an attack that turns Shiranui into a blazing fireball that tears enemies to shreds. You never get these techniques, not even when Ammy returns to full divinity. | |

Miles Gloriosus | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_113472aa | comment |
Miles Gloriosus: The 'great swordsman' Susano is actually an incompetent coward. The main character, a magical wolf-goddess named Amaterasu, sometimes hangs around and helps him fight, although he never seems to notice that his techniques only work when the 'annoying wolf' is around. Interestingly, by the time you fight Orochi, this trope has been largely deconstructed. Susano doesn't want the reputation he's been bragging about, to the point that he started the whole incident by trying to prove the legend of his ancestor false to free himself from the burden of living up to it. Issun mocks him for quivering in fear in his sleep, unaware that his dreams contain things worth being afraid of. And he catches on to the fact that his heroic feats are not truly his own, embittering him to the idea that the gods expect him to save the world... and even then, Susano's Amaterasu-assisted slices are more effective than when Ammy does them on her own. | |

The Call Knows Where You Live: An interesting case where you are the call, rather than The Chosen One. Susano is reluctant to assume any mantle of heroism, but Amaterasu never stops following him and guiding him down the path that will lead him to his destined battle against Orochi. | |

Cel Shading | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_14931ba5 | comment |
Cel Shading: A surprising aversion. The game uses a fairly unique rendering method involving flowing liquid shadows (and outlined models) meant to look like ink. Although in still shots it looks slightly similar to cel-shading, the actual technique, and the appearance in motion, is completely different (notably it isn't tied to light sources, instead being closer to ambient occlusion). | |

Cartoon Bomb: One of the brush techniques creates a 'Cherry Bomb' for the orb and stem shape of these things. It's meant to be a firework, rather than just a bomb, but it looks almost the same. The technique can be upgraded to allow Amaterasu to draw two Cherry Bombs at the same time, and once again so she can draw three. | |

| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_159850a5 | comment |
Warp Whistle: The game has two separate networks: When you drop a Mermaid Coin (found in chests and sold by most merchants) into a Mermaid Spring, it opens a single-use portal to any Mermaid Spring you have previously seen. The hidden brush technique Fountain allows you to open these portals at no cost by drawing a spiral on the spring. The hidden brush technique Mist Warp allows you to travel between Ultimate Origin Mirrors (a subset of Origin Mirrors, the game's save points) by drawing an X on the mirror. There are two mirrors which can only be reached in this way. | |

Genre Shift: The game gets a bit of a shift towards the end, from a feudal Japan mythical fantasy to a feudal Japan Sci-Fi fantasy. Near the end, you see Kaguya, a woman born from a Bamboo shoot in the myth, have a rocket that looks like a bamboo shoot, and in the last part of the game, the eponymous Ark of Yamato turns out to be a spaceship, also implying that these monsters you've been facing are aliens. | |

Power-Up Letdown | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_18683fc2 | comment |
Power Up Letdown: Not all of the bonus brush techniques you can get in sidequests turn out to be as useful in combat as they sound. Especially since some of them only have effects on certain enemies (like using Deluge on a Great Tengu). And considering all the awesome powers your past self Shiranui demonstrated, you'd think that you'd also get to use them when your Eleventh Hour Superpowers activate during the final phase of the final boss, but nope, all you get is a fancy glow. Of all the regular brush techniques, Catwalk is far and away the most useless as it only allows Ammy to wall jump when near a very specific statue. It's quite telling that the only use for Catwalk during the final boss is to retrieve items you're likely to already have in your inventory. One can only wonder if this was intentional, given that the main character is a dog. | |

Only Six Faces: Or rather only 8 generic NPC types − little boy, little girl, ordinary man, woman, fat man, fat woman, old man and old woman. And dogs. Each character of the same type has the exact same animations and reactions. | |

Dressing as the Enemy | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_18dd6739 | comment |
Dressing as the Enemy: All imps that inhabit the Moon Cave will mistake Amaterasu for one of them due to her wearing a sheet with a custom drawing (all imps have their own marked sheets covering their faces). Thus, they won't attack her. | |

By the Eyes of the Blind: Only people with some spiritual sensitivity can see Amaterasu's Facial Markings, including the late priest of the Gale Shrine whose spirit has lost his physical sight. In addition, only Poncles still hold the ability to understand gods, which is how Issun is able to speak with her despite her apparent muteness. Some very spiritual people (Sakuya, Otohime, etc) are able to interpret at least a little based on her behaviour though. | |

Dead All Along | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_1b590025 | comment |
Rao, the priestess who helped the citizens of Sei-an City, was Dead All Along, and the Rao Amaterasu and Issun were interacting with was her murderer in disguise, namely Ninetails. Upon receiving the Fox Rods from a seemingly-clueless Amaterasu, she proceeds to kill Queen Himiko, but this in turn leads to another reveal: Himiko knew about the deception, and let Ninetails kill her so her spirit would gain access to the powers of the crystal ball she was using and accurately locate Oni Island, allowing Amaterasu and Issun to enter and storm it to eventually defeat Ninetails. | |

Unwinnable by Design: Averted. While the tutorial message on a Save Point tells you to keep multiple saves in case you get stuck (implying a Sierra title), it's actually impossible to become "stuck" anywhere.

Boss Arena Recovery: Using your slow-time-down power, occasionally one of the characters will drop health for you. During the final boss there are a few chests littered around the battlefield atop tall pillars you can open for inventory items. Hey, they had to put some use for the strictly non-combat Catwalk power in this Final-Exam Boss. One of the boss's forms even mimics a slot machine, and one combination makes it give up a load of recovery power-ups. | |

Framing Device: The overarching narrative is told by a mysterious narrator, beginning with the legend of Orochi and Shiranui one hundred years ago. By the end of the game, if you haven't figured out the narrator's identity, he'll berate you and switch to more familiar speech patterns that make it easier to recognize him. He then offers to tell you the story again so you can either figure out who he is or mainly to have you respect his brushwork more, setting up the New Game Plus as well. | |

Sakuya, the benevolent wood sprite—her personal motif is peaches, and her dress is both very low-cut and has an opening at the derriere so as to show how much she resembles a peach, herself. And that's just her weakened form. The form you'll see the most has her wearing a bra that shouldn't even be able to hold up her breasts, and what looks like a belt with two tapestries hanging from it. She was originally going to have a third outfit that was even more revealing, but this was cut. | |

Kryptonite Factor | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_22ecc839 | comment |
When doing a ranged attack, Blight throws all his swords at you, including the one that the Blight entity is actually within, and it's very visually distinct from the rest because it is glowing blue. If Blight stuck to just melee and dash attacks, it wouldn't be fine - Amaterasu has Blight's Kryptonite Factor, namely time-slow - but it'd certainly reduce the number of opportunities to power-slash the sword out of the sky and wail on it. | |

Single-Use Shield: By racking up long attack chains, Ammy earns levels of "godhood" in battle — an invisible barrier that can block up to three hits from enemies. There are also items (Traveler's Charm and Godly Charm) that can bestow/recharge this barrier immediately. During the battle against Crimson Helm in the Gale Shrine, the eight Satomi Power Orbs surround you and each one will absorb one hit for free. Combined with the godhood barrier, this can make you invincible against up to eleven attacks. | |

Last Lousy Point | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_23168b93 | comment |
Last Lousy Point: Stray Beads. There are 99 hidden throughout the game, and through various means, like exploration and sidequests. Finding the last few without a guide can be very difficult, and some of the Beads are hard to obtain due to the challenge of the quests linked to them. To unlock every Karmic Transformer, you have to get 4500+ Praise. Good luck. However, you can do it in more than one playthrough on the Wii version. It gets very easy to keep track of once you don't have to spend it on everything. If there's one thing that even completionists find too bothersome to finish, it's filling out the Fish Tome. Accomplished through a simplistic and repetitive minigame, with four different fishing spots, each with exclusive fish depending on time of day, and very few ways to tip the RNG in your favor. You can easily find yourself pulling the same common fish over and over again instead of the one you want. While the caught fish can be sold, it's not very much and there are much faster ways to get cash. Add onto the fact that, unlike the Stray Beads and Praise, there is no reward for going through the trouble other than an achievement (and some platforms like the Switch don't even have achievements, and getting the achievement means you never have to bother with it on future playthroughs on that platform), and you get a side quest that many will simply ignore. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: The whole game is riddled with it, since it meshes Shinto mythology with actual historical records, and then scrambles them out of chronology. Nagi, Nami, Sakuya, Amaterasu, Susano and Kushi are kami (deities) related to the birth of the world. Queen Himiko is based on a semi-legendary shaman queen from the Yayoi Period from 3rd century BC. Okuni is based on the famous dancer who invented Kabuki, Izumo no Okuni. Gen is based off Hiraga Gennai, a Japanese inventor that created the Elekiter, which was a small box that uses the power of friction to generate electricity. The Kaguya subplot is taken from the 10th century Tale of the Bamboo Cutter. Waka (who speaks with a French accent), Yoichi, and Benkei are historical warriors from the late Heian Period (ca. 12th century). The former is short for Ushiwakamaru, which is the childhood name of said warrior. The characters Issun, Rao, Mr and Mrs Cutter, Mr Flower, Orihime, Urashima and MomotarÅ� are taken from latter Muromachi and Edo Period folk tales. Princess Fuse and the Satomi Warriors are from Kyokutei Bakin's 106 volume novel Nansō Satomi Hakkenden (19th century, set in the 15th). Sei-an is clearly based on Edo (modern-day Tokyo), which only became the capital in the 17th century. The canine warriors are mostly dog breeds that either wouldn't be introduced into Japan for centuries, or didn't even exist until recent times. Lechku and Nechku wear monocles and top hats. While their clockwork nature can be explained by them from another world, their fashion sense is strictly Victorian English. | |

Some Dexterity Required | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_273b4c2a | comment |
Some Dexterity Required: The game is more forgiving of blemishes and errors with some brushstrokes than others. A simple straight line, for example, can be a tricky thing to draw in the Wii version, and the Thunderstorm symbol, which is composed of three sharp angled lines, is one of the hardest to draw so it registers. Many of the more advanced technique upgrades like Fireburst (infinity symbol) and Icestorm (three intersecting lines). Drawing the girl's designs in Seian City is also quite frustrating. (It helps to know a thing or two about Calligraphy.) The game is also kinda picky about what counts as a 5 pointed star... Like real picky. This is also subverted with some of the brushstrokes. If it requires several straight lines (i.e. Veil of Mist and Deluge), then you can draw them wherever you want. In other words, you can just move your brush in a straight line while releasing the paint button to create gaps. It's much easier to invoke Veil of Mist by painting "- -" instead of "=". The game seems to recognize straight brush lines better if you hold the Z button while painting, which forces you to draw straight lines. | |

One-Time Dungeon | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_274aca0c | comment |
One-Time Dungeon: The Moon Cave dungeon cannot be accessed again once your defeat Orochi and leave it. There is also Oni Island, the whole "miniature" sequence at the Imperial Palace, the Water Dragon's body and Past Kamiki. Fortunately for you, most of the permanently missable items in these places are mere Shop Fodder. Exceptions include the dog in Past Kamiki (who counts towards your Animal Tome completion), and a Doom Mirror exclusive to the Imperial Palace. Fortunately, missing out on them doesn't deny you any tangible rewards (just true 100% Completion). | |

Carnivore Confusion | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_27a58d30 | comment |
Carnivore Confusion: Averted. Amaterasu, though a wolf, never eats anything but Holy Bones, fruits and vegetables, or prepared foods. She doesn't even eat the fish from the various fishing games (though she can eat sashimi in a sidequest). The wild critters also have no fear of her, though they might sense her true nature. Also, one of her epithets is "mother to us all". | |

Help Yourself in the Future: The game pulls off both the past and future version of this. Amaterasu shows up in the past to fulfill a legend and defeat Orochi in place of your more powerful earlier incarnation, Shiranui, who at the time is off helping you fight Nechku some time later in the game. After defeating Nechku, Shiranui travels back in time to where you are and saves the hero Nagi by throwing herself in front of a falling rock. Amaterasu then returns to the present to fight Nechku with Shiranui. | |

Small Name, Big Ego: Issun, who is convinced he is far more talented and attractive than he actually is. (To his credit, all the other Poncles consider him the best artist from their village.) Also partially justified because when Ammy gets shrunk to his size he is revealed to indeed be a handsome Bishōnen with some impressive sword skills. | |

The name of the Twin Demons is also uncertain. The US version has Lechku and Nechku, the European version has Rechiku and Nechiku; but if you can read Japanese, you can go to the artwork bonus section and see that their image writes them as Moshirechiku and Kotanechiku. But again, since the Ainu language has no formal writing of its own, there can probably be several orthographs. | |

In the End, You Are on Your Own: Played with gleefully at the climax — Amaterasu loses Issun's company, then Waka, then all of the brush gods before she confronts Yami. After she has it apparently beaten, Issun reappears — but it's just a vision, and then Yami shows its true form, destroying all of Amaterasu's powers a second time and leaving her shivering and alone. But Issun has been busy telling the whole world what Amaterasu has done for them, and their gratitude restores her to full power and then some. | |

How Unscientific!: The game starts out as a Far East version of Fractured Fairy Tale, including references to people who live on the moon. Sounds appropriately mystical at first, but you eventually see these people's vessels and the game portrays them as spaceships (one - described the locals as a "metal bamboo shoot" - even looks like a traditional rocket). The Greater-Scope Villain itself is practically a robot. | |

Time Stands Still | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_314c56b9 | comment |
Time Stands Still: Bringing up the Brush screen causes time to effectively stop so you can draw brushstrokes (mostly) unhindered. Additionally, Amaterasu can noticeably slow time with her Veil of Mist ability and time stops when doing brush strokes for the most part. Ghosts aren't affected by it, and the boss Ninetails can use its own versions of the Celestial Brush techniques to interrupt your own. Lechku and Nechku, the Dual Boss of Wawku Shrine, have both the ability to stop time (complete with deliberate monochrome) and move really fast. Shiranui is able to overcome the time stop effect, but not without great effort. | |

Portal to the Past: Hidden in the forest of Yoshpet is a gate that connects to Kamiki Village of 100 years ago, causing the protagonist to have to reenact a famous battle — in which the protagonist died. | |

Collection Sidequest | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_33864ee8 | comment |
Collection Sidequest: You can collect 100 Stray Beads throughout the course of the game to obtain the Infinity Plus One Accessory, but it's really really hard. Only the first 99 Beads are available during a first playthrough; the 100th Bead is rewarded upon finishing the game. This makes them an utterly worthless collectible for at least the first time you play, and probably several subsequent playthroughs, as well. | |

Your Princess Is in Another Castle! | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_33fa230b | comment |
Your Princess Is in Another Castle!: The game has two false climactic dungeons: Orochi's Cave one third of the way through the game, and then Oni Island, at about roughly the two thirds point. While before you enter these areas the game heavily portrays them as being The Very Definitely Final Dungeon, once you're actually inside, they have a curiously lighthearted and unhurried atmosphere. The real final dungeon on the other hand is treated with the appropriate amount of melodrama and gravity. Then there's the fact that when you get to Orochi's Cave and Oni Island, you still haven't collected all thirteen brush techniques yet. The game did this so often that the place felt like an Expansion Pack World. "Yay! We're done! But what's this area over HERE for?" | |

Rubber-Band A.I. | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_34439d52 | comment |
Rubber-Band A.I.: There's a bonus mission where you can race a character through a forest maze. Your opponent is much faster than you if you decide to take the normal route, so you must exploit every possible shortcut on the course in order to stay ahead. However, the race is split into three areas with load screens in between. If you were losing at the end of a section, the opponent will be far ahead of you at the beginning of the next section. If you were winning, no matter how far ahead you were, the opponent will suddenly be racing neck and neck with you in the next section. This leaves very little room for mistakes on any part of the course. | |

Bonus Dungeon | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_34ffa400 | comment |
Bonus Dungeon: The game features a particularly evil example. In different areas of the overworld there are three caves that are home to (slightly) upgraded versions of a previous giant demon spider boss. Defeating them earns a reward, but you can then return to the same cave later to find a demon gate eerily sitting there. Going through forces you to battle wave after wave of superpowered regular enemies. Even the lowliest of Mooks can waste you with a couple of hits in these battles (and you have to go through 10 of them to get the reward) and have HP that would make some of the late-game bosses jealous. These battles could be considered a refreshing change of pace compared to the general easiness of Okami if not for their sheer sadism. The most difficult cave has you face several minibosses from the past in groups, usually two or three at a time. Including Waka and two possessed Raos. | |

Sequential Boss | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_363e9631 | comment |
Sequential Boss: Happens with the Climax Bosses as well as the Final Boss: Orochi has two: In the first, the seal that protects him has to be broken once the serpent heads have been incapacitated. In the second, with the seal broken, Amaterasu can now slay the heads one by one. Ninetails has two: One in which it behaves as an Asteroids Monster and you have to slay the foxes that represent the tails, and another in which one tail remains and the boss is now attacking Amaterasu in a faster-paced duel. The Final Boss example is Yami the Lord of Darkness, whom you fight five times, all the while regaining your Celestial Brush techniques, which Yami zapped out of Amaterasu at the start of the fight. It has to be mentioned though, that Yami's first four forms aren't that different, being a different variety of ball each time. | |

Rule of Cool: You as Amaterasu can rewrite reality with your paint brush: bloom trees, make fountains appear, draw burning infinity symbols, lightning bolts, and ice storms, and put three Cherry Bombs on the screen at once, provided you get the right upgrades. The brush gods qualify as well, often crossing over with Rule of Funny. Take, for example, Kasugami the drunken Bullet Time kung-fu sheep who grants you Veil of Mist. | |

| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_37690091 | comment |
Stable Time Loop: Judging by the third Story Arc of the game, it wasn't actually Shiranui who originally defeated Orochi 100 years ago — it was you. Shiranui was apparently busy elsewhere saving you from the twin owls of Wawku Shrine, though at the cost of a mortal wound, perhaps knowing you could handle Orochi by yourself. According to Issun's version of the legend of Nagi, Nagi dressed himself up as a maiden before leaving to slay Orochi. Strange that you never heard this particular detail before... it's exactly what you do to him after accidentally knocking him out in a fight. | |

Barrier Maiden: Sakuya, whose trees ward off evil, has been turned into Sealed Good in a Can. Only by rejuvenating the trees can the area's cursed zone be lifted. Princess Fuse also functions as this for Kusa Village, though the village starts becoming a cursed zone after she gets possessed by some imps. It's also implied that Queen Himiko is the main reason why the Blight is only making most people feel weak. Also, there is the possibility that Otohime protects her people from the Water Dragon, though it could also be that it avoids the area on purpose, given it was the king's home. | |

Batman Gambit | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Queen Himiko lets Rao/Ninetails regain the Fox Rods, and thus ultimate power, in order to use that power to find Oni Island so Amaterasu can finish Ninetails off. Shiranui's plot to get Kutone glowing again to open the way to the Ark of Yamato and thus to Yami and the Celestial Plain (which involves a Stable Time Loop). And you have to admit that Orochi seemed Crazy-Prepared, too, waiting for one of Nagi's descendants to unwittingly pull Tsukuyomi out of Orochi's seal so he would curse the world, and tempt said descendant so he could complete the blood pact and give the giant snake "dark powers beyond comprehension". And if that failed, he'd die and then subsequently release the souls of the four other major baddies to take over the world. All of this while Waka knowing exactly what is going on and trying to set Amaterasu up to get her to the Celestial Plain, too. | |

Boss-Arena Idiocy: Very frequently, the Boss Room will contain exactly what you need to defeat said boss, even − especially! − if there is no reason for it to be there whatsoever. Against Ninetails, the Twin Demons and Yami, there will be torches, waterfalls or thunderous clouds at your disposal all around the room. As for Yami, the fight actually takes place on the deck (the top) of the Ark of Yamato. Also, there are Konohana Blossoms in the Spider Queen's boss chamber, as well as the various Bandit Spiders' throughout the game. Which also have torches. At the bottom of random cavernous holes in the ground. | |

Humans Are Bastards | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_3d4d3dc9 | comment |
Ironically, anything related to animals or nature tends to give Amaterasu the respect she deserves; restoring nature and feeding animals are two of the main ways to increase Amaterasu's Praise. So nature itself gives Amaterasu respect, but the humans generally don't. | |

Pun-Based Title | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_3eb0f889 | comment |
Pun-Based Title: In Japanese, "Okami" is a homophone that can mean either "wolf" or "great deity", with each meaning being written differently in kanji (the game's title uses the kanji for the latter). Fittingly, the game's story involves Amaterasu, one of the most important deities in Japanese Mythology, taking the form of a wolf. | |

Bleak Level | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_3f8ef764 | comment |
Bleak Level: The game features a mixture of cheery and dark areas, but the bleakest one among the latter group is Sei-an City under the Blight's influence. The atmosphere is very foreboding, as the city is being shrouded by a thick green mist that originates from the Emperor's body (the culprit isn't him, but Blight who invaded his body). As a result, the inhabitants' morale has deteriorated, and so did the health of some. Even Issun tells Amaterasu that the place has gotten a more sinister appearance than Orochi's cursed zones, which says a lot. | |

Stupidity Is the Only Option | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_40680cf6 | comment |
Stupidity Is the Only Option: The bridge to Orochi's lair has been broken and the ritual is about to begin! Better use Rejuvenation to repair it and head straight to battle, right? Nope, the brush technique inexplicably refuses to work here, forcing the player to follow Issun's advice and just jump into the Moon Cave below. In the second half of the game, each time you have to rush back to some place before it's too late, the most simple solution is to use Mermaid's pools or Mirrors to teleport directly to that place and waste no time, but Issun won't allow you, because he has no idea where you might be thinking of warping off to (and on a technical level, there are certain events that need to occur along the route). | |

Guest-Star Party Member: This happens twice during the sixth dungeon (Wawku Shrine). When you fight Lechku, you'll be helped by Shiranui, the past incarnation of Amaterasu. When you fight Lechku again (who is now helped by Nechku), your extra companion will be Oki. Likely because of the need of a second character in both battles, these two Owl monsters are absent during the Boss Rush of the final dungeon, since you can only refight bosses alone there. | |

Story Arc | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_42008602 | comment |
Story Arc: The game is neatly divided into three story arcs: The Orochi story arc, regarding the release of Orochi and the terror he tries to release upon the world; the Capital Arc regarding a strange mist covering the capital and the threats of the Water Dragon terrorizing the seas and the Dark Lord that seems to be the mastermind behind everything; and the Kamui Arc, which takes place on the northern, frozen mountains of Nippon. Several mini-arcs take place as different plot points are solved so there's nothing undisclosed by the end of the story: The backstory of Issun and his hometown, the threat of two twin demons in the shape of mechanical owls that plan to freeze the land of Kamui over, the true backstory of the first arc and, finally, the appearance of The Very Definitely Final Dungeon and every aspect related to it (its origin, the fate of its former inhabitants, and the nature of the Greater-Scope Villain in the form of Yami, the Lord of Darkness). | |

Heroes Gone Fishing: This is actually a plot event in the game. You have to catch a giant catfish, which devours the moon's reflection in the water, thus stopping the moon from coming out. Once you nab this guy, you get a brush power that lets you draw a moon in the sky to turn day into night. One of the sidequests is to help a sword collector by fishing. Why? He is fishing for a specific catch, the Cutlass fish, also known as the living sword. | |

Elemental Powers: Sun is Ammy's initial element, with unlockable minor control over others coming later.

The three include the Solar Flare Reflector, Tundra Beads, and Thunder Edge Glaive. | |

Toggling Setpiece Puzzle | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_442304c0 | comment |
Toggling Setpiece Puzzle: The Ghost Ship incorporates this type of puzzle by allowing Amaterasu to, in a certain room with a crack that grants a view of the skies, transition between day and night with the Sunrise and Crescent brush techniques. During day, the tide level of Ryoshima's sea rises, flooding much of the ship's interior; this allows her, Issun, and then-accompanying Rao to reach upper parts of the vessel that were previously inaccessible during night. At one point, however, they reach a crucial area that is flooded and cannot be entered in that state (since they don't know how to swim), so they have to enable a shortcut to the area with the crack and turn day into night, lowering the tide and granting access to the desired area (which has a Magic Mallet that grants access to the next dungeon). | |

Ambiguous Gender | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_4510b368 | comment |
Ambiguous Gender: Demon Lord Ninetails has no clearly defined gender. It's unknown if it is male or female. But considering it is a demonic creature with deific power, as well as being a shapeshifter that can take on male and female forms, it is likely genderless. Amaterasu has also stirred confusion, as she urinates with her leg up when using the Golden Fury ability. This confusion likely derives from the common misconception that only male canines can urinate with one leg up. This is more related to the degree of dominance a canine has, rather than its gender. | |

Gameplay Grading | |

Gameplay Grading: The game rates the player's performance after each battle, based on time spent and damage received. The ratings are icons of plants; seeds represent the lowest rank and blossoming cherry trees the highest. The higher rating you get, the more money you obtain as a bonus. Even the Final Bosses have one, which pops up immediately before the End-Game Results Screen. Hitting the highest ranks on that as well will net you some Karmic Transformers for each rank cleared. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: You can fight the "The Kusa Five," who are the Canine Warriors remaining at Princess Fuse's side. Despite the name, you actually fight all eight Canine Warriors. When Issun mentions this, Fuse says it's because even when they are separated, they fight as one. Then Issun says something to the effect of, "Then how come they didn't help us fight that Crimson Helm guy?" Fuse can't come up with anything to explain this save "Um..." before quickly moving to another topic, as the game's way of giving a Hand Wave to their presence as an extra boss. | |

Opening the Sandbox: You can go back and get most of the missing collectibles once you've bought the Double Jump and unlocked Kabegami's brush technique, allowing you to climb walls, but it's a lot less traveling to wait until you've gotten the Mist Warp technique (available after completing the fourth dungeon, Imperial Palace) so you can teleport between certain sacred mirrors. | |

Gods Need Prayer Badly: In addition to earning Praise with which she buys upgrades, Amaterasu becomes a full-fledged god again at the end of the game when Issun convinces the entire world to pray for her, allowing to defeat Yami, the God of Darkness. Because all the people she helped during the entire game pray to her, the collective power restores her to full godhood, taking on her Shiranui form. | |

Shock and Awe: Gekigami, the god of storms. He is a celestial tiger who fires arrows with a back-mounted bow and his tail, and grants Amaterasu the ability to manipulate electricity to attack enemies or recharge certain gizmos. There's an unlockable secret technique that allows Ammy to cast a powerful (albeit ink-costly) lightning. The most powerful glaive is lightning-charged, and you can draw lightning from it if you don't want to unlock or use the brush technique that lets you create it from nowhere. | |

Urine Trouble: The game lets our lupine hero pee on enemies as an attack to gain valuable Demon Fangs. And she's God. Even stranger? You have to pay money to gain the ability to do this. It can later be upgraded into explosive crap. For the most part, this barely does any damage, thus is only used to get said valuable Demon Fangs. However, improving your strength enough does allow these moves to be used for Cherry Tapping. And if you get and equip the Infinity Plus One Bead Necklace, they become deadly all on their own. | |

Clap Your Hands If You Believe: How the main character gets more powerful. Performing helpful divine intervention gives Praise and with Praise, Amaterasu can be upgraded. This is also how Ammy gets her second wind against the Final Boss after her powers are stolen a second time: Issun, left behind, spreads the word about Ammy's divine nature and what she's already done for people, causing everyone she's helped to pray for her success, restoring her abilities and then some, returning her to the glory she had as Shiranui. | |

Lava Pit: Queen Himiko's palace has a huge pit of lava in it. And it's located on the second floor of a building that looks easily burnable. There's also some rather impressive (and considerably more justifiable) lava pits on Oni Island. In both cases, Ammy can swim in them like they're water by equipping an item called the Fire Tablet. She can even use the Waterspout technique on it! | |

But Thou Must!: "No" options are provided when Ammy is asked to do something, but the characters responded to will beg you to reconsider until you say "yes". When Amaterasu ends up in past Kamiki Village, she finds a very young Sakuya alongside her tree which is a small sapling. Attempting to Bloom it will instead cancel it out since doing so would break the timeline. | |

Waka, because before that, you can just hack n' slash your enemies to bits close-range.

Gotta Catch Them All: The Celestial Brush techniques, some of which need to be found before moving on to certain parts of the story. There are also secret variants of the techniques, unlockable via sidequests. Treasures, animals to feed, fishes to catch, martial arts to learn, bestiary to complete, Gold Dust to empower the Divine Instruments, traveler scrolls to find— even if these are all optional, they're still things to catch for the poor completionist attempting them. The Stray Beads. Granted, it unlocks the String Of Beads weapon in the New Game Plus, but good luck finding all 100 without a guide. | |

King of All Cosmos: Amaterasu's wolflike behavior gets played for laughs here and there, including not five minutes after her initial revival, where Amaterasu decides to take a nap even as Sakuya is pleading for her help to save the land from a revived Orochi. Several sidequests even play off Amaterasu being a dog, such as digging up turnips or chasing down various creatures. | |

Bragging Rights Reward | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_55e5b37c | comment |
If there's one thing that even completionists find too bothersome to finish, it's filling out the Fish Tome. Accomplished through a simplistic and repetitive minigame, with four different fishing spots, each with exclusive fish depending on time of day, and very few ways to tip the RNG in your favor. You can easily find yourself pulling the same common fish over and over again instead of the one you want. While the caught fish can be sold, it's not very much and there are much faster ways to get cash. Add onto the fact that, unlike the Stray Beads and Praise, there is no reward for going through the trouble other than an achievement (and some platforms like the Switch don't even have achievements, and getting the achievement means you never have to bother with it on future playthroughs on that platform), and you get a side quest that many will simply ignore. | |

Let's Get Dangerous! | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_562abd51 | comment |
Let's Get Dangerous!: Most of Susano's character arc casts him in a comic relief role, and his cowardice is often played for laughs. When monsters threaten Kushi, however, all bets are off. The greatest example of this is when he's seen cowering outside Orochi's lair while Amaterasu goes in, but when Orochi is about to devour Kushi, he says without fear or hesitation: "Hold it right there, vile serpent." He then goes on to state that he requires help from nobody, and that all he needs to slay Orochi is his trusty wooden sword. Right before he uses said wooden sword to slice the last Orochi head in half lengthwise, unaided by Amaterasu. | |

Noble Wolf: The sun goddess Amaterasu takes the form of a fluffy white wolf with red markings and Reality Warper powers, and goes around Nippon helping people, beating up evil demons and generally making the world bright and beautiful. While technically she is a goddess and not a real wolf, she behaves very much like a friendly, playful (and occasionally naughty) dog. | |

However, there's no one to stop you from interrupting, save a few pointed remarks from the couple - in the end, Issun has to do the job himself and scold Ammy into leaving. | |

Green Thumb: The Hanagami are a trifecta of plant-based Brush Gods, Sakigami, Tsutagami, and Hasugami. When you get their power, drawing a circle around a dead tree, scribbling over a miniature cursed zone, or painting a dot on fertile ground yields Bloom, drawing a line connecting a Konohana Blossom to something makes a Vine, and drawing circles on water creates Lilypads for you to Walk on Water. | |

Arrows on Fire | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_5869bd44 | comment |
Arrows on Fire: Gaining entrance to Sei-an City requires that you light a torch to lower a bridge. Said torch is on the other side of the gorge which you need to cross. The solution is to get the archer who normally uses a flaming arrow to light said torch to fire an unlit arrow, just to prove he can, then light it on fire midflight using a brush skill. | |

Fictional Constellations: Each of the 13 Brush Gods (who are all based on Eastern Zodiac plus a cat, the animal who failed to join the Zodiac in the story), hides themselves as constellations with missing stars in various locations. When you spot them, you need to fill in the missing stars to restore their powers and make them at your service. In order to summon each of the Celestial Brush Gods, Amaterasu must use her powers to complete the constellation associated with each brush god. There are fourteen in all, plus an enemy who is also summoned in a similar fashion. | |

Omniscient Morality License: Waka could very likely be accused of this trope. In the game, it's shown that he can see the future, and is pretty strong, at one point even fixing the coastline of its corruption. Staggeringly, he does very little in the way of progress, when, theoretically, he could fix most of Nippon's problems. And a lot of problems would probably have been solved if he took a more direct approach in saving the world, rather than let destiny play out. Of course, Waka, knowing the future, would know that he's not powerful enough to defeat the Greater-Scope Villain without a powered-up Ammy's help. | |

Good All Along | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_5f611b7e | comment |
All of the enemies and villains fought in the game came from the same source: the Ark of Yamato, which was built by the Lunarian tribe and served as a rescue boat for troubled souls until a demon tribe ambushed it and killed all Lunarians except one. The lone survivor of that onslaught is Waka, who is shown to be Good All Along, and wishes Amaterasu to defeat the mastermind of the raid, still living in the Ark: Yami, the Lord of Darkness. | |

This also applies to Lechku and Nechku, demonic Owls whose outer body take the form of Clockwork Creature, and several other demons. | |

Heavenly Concentric Circles: Amaterasu, the Japanese Top Goddess and deity of the sun, carries Divine Instruments floating on her back while in her true form. She's the only one who can wield them as weapons. One class, the Reflectors, is based on the Yata no Kagami and has the form of a spinning disc with concentric or spiral patterns on its surface. | |

Bunny-Ears Lawyer: A good number of characters in the game are far more proficient than their demeanors would indicate, particularly Amaterasu, Susano, Waka, Tama, the Oranges, several of the Canine Warriors, and Nagi. Amaterasu in particular stands out the most on account of being the main character: who knew that the ditzy, impulsive, and frankly airheaded wolf could kick so much ass? | |

Plot Lock: You can't fix the Broken Bridge between Agata Forest and Taka Pass, even though Amaterasu can paint them good as new everywhere else, perhaps due to the raging river that washed the original away. The same goes for the stairs to Watcher's Cape in North Ryoshima Coast, as you're meant to acquire the Catwalk brush technique instead. There is, at least, a Hand Wave for the stairs to Watcher's Cape: Issun says that because the stairs fell apart with age, "No amount of brushwork will fix this." | |

Justified with the Celestial Brush techniques. You need to find the correct god and release/rejuvenate it before you can use its technique. (Which means if you start a New Game Plus, you have to redo all of those subquests again.) It's also pointed out in-game: At the beginning of the game in Kamiki Village, if you try to use Sunrise without exploring the village, Issun will wonder what you're trying to do, "raise the sun or something? That's impossible!" | |

Nonindicative Name: The English translation takes some liberties with some monsters' names. For example, the Nue, a Japanese youkai with the face of a monkey, legs of a tiger, and body of a tanuki, was renamed Chimera after an unrelated (though conceptually similar) monster from Greek mythology, and the Kamaitachi became Poltergeists. | |

Permanently Missable Content | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6602cad | comment |
Permanently Missable Content: In order to achieve 100% Completion, you must find and feed every animal (or cluster thereof) in Nippon. Of the hundred or so animals that litter the game, one is missable, which is found during a one-time trip 100 years into the past. If you forgot to feed that one dog, you won't get another chance. Any Praise and treasures hidden in the Moon Cave, the miniature area of Imperial Palace, and Oni Island, as well as several high-Praise clovers in ancient Kamiki Village; the clovers require an upgraded Power Slash, so make sure you've visited the island spring off of North Ryoshima Coast before completing Yoshpet. The unripened fruit on the sapling in North Ryoshima must be gotten with the help of the archer who will permanently leave the area after a certain point. It only contains Praise though, making it effectively just another clover. Fire and Ice Doom Mirrors inhabit one specific room in the one-time-visit Emperor's Palace. Unlike their Wind and Earth counterparts they are optional battles, so if you prefer to avoid demon scrolls then these bestiary entries are Lost Forever. Thankfully they can be gotten in the New Game Plus. | |

Animals Lack Attributes: Played both ways — the game raised an eyebrow for the inclusion of a black "dot" underneath Amaterasu's tail (which, with the exception of one cutscene, is generally obscured by her tail anyway); other canine characters have a similar detail. But other species of animals (like horses and boars) are not depicted with any such visible... things... | |

Bullfight Boss: Oni (both red and blue) and the appropriately-named Bull Charger.

Inconsistent Spelling: Shinshuu or Shinshu? The name of the Twin Demons is also uncertain. The US version has Lechku and Nechku, the European version has Rechiku and Nechiku; but if you can read Japanese, you can go to the artwork bonus section and see that their image writes them as Moshirechiku and Kotanechiku. But again, since the Ainu language has no formal writing of its own, there can probably be several orthographs. | |

The Reveal | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
The Reveal: It was Susano, Nagi's descendant, who freed Orochi from his seal. He didn't do it for malicious reasons: He simply believed that the legend telling the story of Orochi, Shiranui, and Nagi was just a myth. Much to his horror, the legend was true, so he was the one who placed a big boulder blocking the entrance to Kamiki Village for the sake of protecting the town. Lastly, Susano is aware that Amaterasu is a god. Rao, the priestess who helped the citizens of Sei-an City, was Dead All Along, and the Rao Amaterasu and Issun were interacting with was her murderer in disguise, namely Ninetails. Upon receiving the Fox Rods from a seemingly-clueless Amaterasu, she proceeds to kill Queen Himiko, but this in turn leads to another reveal: Himiko knew about the deception, and let Ninetails kill her so her spirit would gain access to the powers of the crystal ball she was using and accurately locate Oni Island, allowing Amaterasu and Issun to enter and storm it to eventually defeat Ninetails. Two in the last arc (Kamui): Issun fled from his hometown after he felt he would never earn the role of Celestial Envoy, despite his best efforts, so he travelled around Nippon as a Wandering Artist. Ironically, this was a wise move, as this led him to meet and befriend Amaterasu and earn the dreamed role on his own. All of the enemies and villains fought in the game came from the same source: the Ark of Yamato, which was built by the Lunarian tribe and served as a rescue boat for troubled souls until a demon tribe ambushed it and killed all Lunarians except one. The lone survivor of that onslaught is Waka, who is shown to be Good All Along, and wishes Amaterasu to defeat the mastermind of the raid, still living in the Ark: Yami, the Lord of Darkness. | |

| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6b6ac319 | comment |
Painfully Slow Projectile: There's generally a reason for this — you have to deflect the projectiles with your Power Slash. That, and they aren't bullets, they're generally rocks or fruit being thrown at you. In any case, later projectiles are sped up considerably, with the idea that you need to use Mist to slow time down in order to be able to slash them — if you try to slash them without Mist, they either don't show up on the brush screen or they aren't affected by Mist. | |

The Lost Woods | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6b7c9f96 | comment |
The Lost Woods: Agata Forest is a dense forest with several lake ponds and tall trees. A kid named Kokari is seen here fishing in one of the ponds, looking for a fish that swallowed the key the opens up the way to the game's first dungeon, Tsuta Ruins, an ancient temple full of flora and toxic water, and rescue his dog who got lost there. Later in the game, Kokari tries to capture a fish named Whopper who, according to legend, swallowed the reflection of the moon during night (when Amaterasu helps him capture Whopper, the reflection appears again and the god of the moon appears to teach her a new Brush Technique). The forest of Yoshpet in Kamui is a murky forest located in the snowy region of Kamui, thus intersecting with Slippy-Slidey Ice World. In addition to the slippery passageways, there are purple brambles along the way and forking paths, and Amaterasu will need the guidance of Kai (and later Issun) to reach quickly to certain destinations under a time limit. Near the end of the game, it's possible to challenge Kai in a Racing Minigame that takes place here. | |

Fractured Fairy Tale | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6d5ab39e | comment |
Fractured Fairy Tale: Much of the game subverts and references famous Japanese Mythology, folklore, and fairy tales — implying that parts were exaggerated, downplayed, or Lost in Imitation over the centuries. Mythological Susano was a powerful warrior. ÅŒkami's Susano, not so much (until he slays Orochi). The game's presentation of The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, on the other hand, is almost entirely accurate... except for the fact that the "shining bamboo stalk" she was found in turns out to be an enormous spaceship shaped like a bamboo shoot. | |

Punny Name | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6d7026fa | comment |
Punny Name: For a Japanese pun, "ÅŒkami" can mean either "wolf" or "great god". Not to mention that the title can be used as part of an alternate spelling for Amaterasu in Japanese, as well as referencing the kind of paper used in woodcut artwork, which is basically what the game is built on. A lot of character names, too. Some of them got translated (Mr. Orange, for instance), some didn't (Kiba the Demon Fang merchant, say). | |

Fake King: Played with the leaders of Sei-an City; the game (and Issun) hint that Queen Himiko is behind the Emperor's illness and the city's curse, when in fact Ninetails, using the appearance of Priestess Rao (who he killed previously), infected the Emperor and caused him to exhale the evil mist that caused the curse. | |

Marathon Level | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6dc206c9 | comment |
Marathon Level: Any completionist who's ever played the game has spent untold additional hours getting the stray beads. Specifically, a set of three beads requires you to fight through a total of thirty demon gates in groups of ten each. The first two sets aren't bad... fifteen minutes to half an hour each depending on your skills. The third one however is at least an hour and a half of the toughest enemies in the game, below bosses. You can't save, and if you leave after finishing any gates you have to start the stage over. Oni Island, the fifth dungeon, is the longest in the game. Lots of racing segments, tricky obstacles, fairly tough enemy battles, and a difficult boss. Even getting to the place takes a while. | |

Underground Monkey | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6e7a3cd | comment |
Underground Monkey: Nearly every single enemy and boss in the game shares similar moves and/or tactics with at least one other. Each class of enemy has an official name and list of standard enemies in supplementary material, but most bosses can be neatly placed in one of these categories: Fallen Demons: The basic mooks in each region: Imps, Guardians, Namahage, Clay Army. Each group has five variants with the same gimmicks (basic, defensive, burrowing, flying, and projectile-shielded), save the first variant for the Guardians. Chimera Family: Bud Ogre, Chimera, Igloo Turtle. These demons are extremely tough until they're stunned, at which point an opening appears after you use a certain brush technique. Flying Demons: Dead Fish, Crow Tengu, Ubume. As the name suggests, they fly, but can be brought down with the right tactics; Crow Tengu and Ubume also guard, but can be attacked by countering with the right brushstroke. Wheeled Destruction: Fire Eye, Ice Mouth, Thunder Ear, Earth Nose, Poltergeist. Each must be countered by a certain element or by waiting for an opening, while the Poltergeist can use any element. A sub category, the Doom Mirrors, act as the enemies in the Imperial Palace dungeon, with a counterpart for each of the four basic wheels. Greater Goblins: Blue Cyclops and Great Tengu. Powerful, masked, flying warriors that will go berserk if enraged. Crabs: Jiro, Saburo, Ichiro. An interesting family in that all three are technically the same enemy; Jiro and Saburo always fight together, but if they manage to flood the arena, they fuse to become Ichiro. Bovine Demons: Crimson Helm, Red Ogre, Blue Ogre, Bull Charger. Armored powerhouses that are typically slow, but make up for with pure offense and the ability to jump and charge. Interestingly, Crimson Helm, the first introduced, is a major boss, while the enemy versions don't show up for another three dungeons. Canines: Satomi Canine Warriors, Tube Foxes, Ninetails, Wolf Oki. Fast quadrupeds that may tire out. Arachnids: Spider Queen, Bandit Spider. Immense spiders weak to having their backs open via Vine. Humanoids: Two distinct subclasses exist. The first is a miniboss-exclusive that includes Waka, Evil Rao, Oki, and Nagi. The second features Blight and Dogu, who attack so quickly that Veil of Mist is needed to counter them. The remaining bosses can all be split into their own special groups: Orochi and True Orochi, Lechku and Nechku, and the five forms of Yami. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Several of the Stray Beads can only be found after completing the second-to-last area, but before entering The Very Definitely Final Dungeon, which is beyond the point of no return. Also, good luck finding all 100 without a guide. Finding all of the cherry trees to bloom in the Sei-an City Commoner's Quarter can be difficult because one of them is inside Mr. Flower's house, and one of them is the tiny one on his head. The game (Wii version at least) never tells you how to use rapid fire beads properly when they're equipped as sub weapons (tapping Z only lets you fire one shot every few seconds, you have to switch to tapping C after the first shot to rapid-fire). You'll be forgiven if you spend the game only equipping shotgun beads if you could help it. Certain glaives equipped in the secondary slot can be charged as well, but holding Z does nothing. The only hint that the Ice Storm brush technique is gained along with Blizzard is in the fight with Ninetails, who will occasionally use it when the player pulls up the brush screen. You can paint a "snowflake" (an X with a horizontal line through the middle) which causes ice shards to rain down and freeze multiple targets. The size of the drawing determines the strength of the attack and how many ink pots are consumed. This one is especially nasty because up until that point, the "screen-filling attack" version of the brush techniques have all been upgrades that were the result of sidequests. If a player doesn't think to try what Ninetails did, or doesn't remember how it went, or thought that Ninetails was attempting to use Mist Warp before cancelling the brush screen, they may well spend hours searching Nippon in vain for a sidequest that isn't there. Four separate side-quests in Sei-An city require you to chase down the thief Hayazo, but before you can chase him you have to find him hiding somewhere in the city. But he's not hiding behind a building or under a bridge; he's hiding inside a rock. The rock is entirely unremarkable and this hiding place isn't really hinted at, and how exactly he's hiding inside a seemingly solid rock is never addressed. The Animal Lover's sidequest is to find his lost pet Inaba, but finding him is a bit obscure unless you know he shares the same name as the "Hare of Inaba" legend which is one of the only hints that you're looking for a rabbit alongside the hard-to-spot rabbit drawing on the Animal Lover's clothes. Then if you clear the nearby Devil Gate which restores several rabbits, you'd have to notice that one of them has black patches and is seperately fed from the pure-white rabbits, and that he's the only animal in the game who doesn't run away if you pick them up. | |

Marathon Boss | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_6ee0d388 | comment |
Marathon Boss: The Mini-Boss battles during the Bandit Spider challenges are very lenghty, since both the minibosses involved and the enemies have their HP significantly buffed. Among the regular bosses, Orochi stands out for the need to destroy the seal (within a bell) in his central belly, and then the eight heads one by one. There's also Yami, which has to be fought across five lenghty phases, and in them Amaterasu has to retrieve the stolen brush techniques one by one, which further prolongs the fight. | |

What the Hell, Player?: Most people (and animals) will negatively respond to attacks of any sort in the game. Additionally, nearly every character and animal will react differently to the various brush powers. In particular, using offensive techniques like Power Slash or Inferno will make them angry and confused; using Bloom, on the other hand, will infuse them with joy and usually cause them to lovingly pat Ammy on the head. Or, in the case of the Oina tribe, it will transform them into their animal forms. | |

God Is Good: No problem is too big or small to be tackled by Amaterasu, though she is far from an enabler. A big part of the game is helping other people to recognize their own hidden potential. And she kills the ultimate evil in the universe, so there's that. | |

100% Completion | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_77f6cc58 | comment |
In order to achieve 100% Completion, you must find and feed every animal (or cluster thereof) in Nippon. Of the hundred or so animals that litter the game, one is missable, which is found during a one-time trip 100 years into the past. If you forgot to feed that one dog, you won't get another chance. | |

Boss in Mook Clothing: The Dogu that you meet the first time in the past just before fighting Orochi could qualify. They are very resilient, have some fast and varied attacks, and can do quite a bit of damage when you're not used to them; it helps that they're a variant of Blight, an actual boss. Of course they are even worse in the Ten Demonic Gates sidequest. | |

Issun never returns there, even after his grandfather regrets having motivated his escape, but does manage to become the chosen Celestial Envoy and earn his grandfather's approval. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Amaterasu and Issun go off to stop the raging Water Dragon and end up going inside it. There they get the Plot Coupon-y Fox Rods, but in the process end up killing the Water Dragon (who is then revealed to be the now-deceased king of the Dragon Palace). Upon escaping from inside the dying Water Dragon, you come across Rao, who you then give the Fox Rods to, but it's only once you've returned to Queen Himiko's palace that you find out that Rao is Ninetails - an impostor who killed the real Rao months ago. Now having the Fox Rods (whose paws you were trying to keep the Fox Rods out of), Ninetails promptly kills Queen Himiko, and reveals that because you killed the Water Dragon, there's now no way to reach Oni Island, and with Queen Himiko dead, the location can't be predicted. If it wasn't for Himiko having pulled a successful Thanatos Gambit to pinpoint the location of the island one last time, and the queen of Dragon Palace being able to turn into a dragon like her husband to reach it, the game would have ended in a Sudden Downer Ending. | |

| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_80874b5d | comment |
Mechanical Abomination: The last bosses in the game before entering The Very Definitely Final Dungeon are a pair of demons that look like owls made of clockwork called Lechku and Nechku. The Final Boss is Yami, who is the god of darkness, but it actually manifests in the form of a spherical robot controlled by a fish-like creature in a smaller sphere. It goes through several different forms but is always a spherical robot that transforms into a different shape. It starts as a mechanical sphere that opens up at the top like a flower, then becomes a sphere that can separate into a large number of disks, then becomes a sphere that turns into a slot machine, then becomes a sphere that turns into a robot wielding electric whips, and finally a sphere that turns into a giant hand. | |

Bad Moon Rising | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_82a51bc7 | comment |
Bad Moon Rising: This trope signifies the arrival of both Orochi and Ninetails. The full moon signifies the beginning of Orochi's ritual of sacrifice. A blood-red moon, complete with nine dark lines, replaces the regular one after Queen Himiko is killed by Ninetails. It stays in the sky until you defeat the fox. And then there is the solar eclipse, which signifies the rising of Yami, the Lord of Darkness, and the concurrent waning of Amaterasu's solar power. This, fortunately, is only an issue during the very last battle. You don't suffer any gameplay weakness during the eclipse. | |

The latter is a quintet of dogs previously fought as minibosses during the game's earlier parts, and now make up for a massively buffed team that requires good reflexes and skill to be defeated. | |

Puzzle Boss: All of them. Much like any Zelda game, your most recently-acquired brush technique will prove vital to stunning/damaging or otherwise battling each major boss. For instance, if you're not a pro at the brush technique Veil of Mist by the time you beat Blight, you're in for a tough battle. Midbosses (like Waka or the Tube Foxes) are more action-oriented, though. | |

Reality Is Unrealistic | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_85557b38 | comment |
Reality Is Unrealistic: When Amaterasu uses Golden Fury, she hikes her leg up in a way that most people associate with male dogs. This confuses some people and is used as evidence to support the theory that Amaterasu is using a male wolf vessel, not transforming into a wolf. In real life, whether a wolf hikes its leg or not is dependent on whether they are trying to show dominance — some female dogs hike their leg, too. | |

Cherry Blossom Girl: Sakuya in qualifies despite being the spirit of a golden peach tree — she protects and preserves Nippon through her network of enchanted trees, has pink blossoms, hides the people of Kamiki Village in her fruit when the darkness is about to overwhelm it, and at one point in the early game withdraws into her tree until revived by the protagonist Amaterasu. | |

Bait-and-Switch | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_8797239c | comment |
Bait-and-Switch: At the end of the Tsuta Ruins, the first major dungeon, there's a gigantic flower bud that ate Kokari's dog Ume. As Amaterasu and Issun run forward, they see a shadowy eight-pronged mass writhing behind the bud. Issun is speechless as he assumes it's Orochi, the eight-headed serpent running the show, but the silhouette becomes the eight arms of the Spider Queen, and the bud is her abdomen. The model for Orochi is used in the leadup, however, implying that he was projecting to create or animate the Spider Queen. | |

Refusal of the Call | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_87b8f581 | comment |
Refusal of the Call: Susano is revealed to have removed Tsukuyomi from the cave in order to prove that what happened 100 years ago wasn't really true so that he didn't have to carry Nagi's title. Even after being proven gravely wrong, he still resists the call of ancestry until the showdown with Orochi. Issun ran away from his village so that he wouldn't have to become a Celestial Envoy, but his doing so saves Amaterasu and allows her to defeat the final boss.. A recurring theme in the game is people discovering (often after a few unsubtle divine hints) their true calling in life. | |

The Paragon | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_89623e9a | comment |
The Paragon: Amaterasu. She, as the Matron God of Nippon, can bestow all sorts of blessings upon the world, such as slicing obstacles in half (up to and including boulders blocking roads) and revitalizing dead flora. Very often, she (and by extension, the player) employs her powers in a way that makes it look as though the ones actually achieving her feats are mortals, in order to give them the initiative and confidence to keep striving for the greater good of the land and to praise the gods. This does backfire at least once, namely with Susano, a rather incompetent warrior that misinterprets Amaterasu's help as mockery from the Gods for his laziness and uneffectiveness. | |

Braggart Boss: "Waka, the gods' gift to man, is here! Bonjour!" While not villainous, per se, he still acts as a recurring antagonist to Amaterasu. Subverted in that he eventually turns out to be as competent as he brags. It was his prophecy that led to the original defeat of Orochi, after all. He also carries more emotional baggage than the average Braggart Boss. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: There's a series of "Wham" moments after the Water Dragon dies. First you learn that the dragon was actually the King of the Dragonians. Then Otohime has a vision of Rao being attacked by a monster. You run off to save her, discovering a tunnel leading to the queen's palace from Rao's temple. When you reach the throne room, you discover that Himiko has been murdered, then that the Rao you've known all along is actually the Demon Lord Ninetails, who killed the original and replaced her, and you played straight into his hands by retrieving and giving him the Fox Rods. Finally, after a boss fight with him, he declares that The Battle Didn't Count, and escapes to Oni Island, which is now inaccessible because the Water Dragon, who could break the barrier around the island, and Himiko, who could determine where Oni Island is, are both dead. The situation does improve afterwards: It turns out that Queen Himiko has been conducting a Thanatos Gambit all along in order to locate Oni Island, and make it visible until sunset. Otohime becomes the new Water Dragon, allowing her to bridge the gap between the coast and Oni Island, allowing Amaterasu to reach it and put an end to Ninetails. It's also implied that Ammy knew about Himiko's gambit all along. | |

Mid-battle, when Ammy is at her lowest and darkest, everyone she helped starts praying for her, boosting her to full power and making the final stage of the fight a glorious victory lap. | |

Art Shift: The illustrations that depict various events are done in an authentic ukiyo-e style and differ quite a bit from the more simplified game rendering, notably turning the young looking Issun into a much mature looking man. One of the Karmic Transformers for New Game Plus (unlocked by being ranked "S" for total Praise earned after beating the game) also gives Ammy a realistic 3D render (possibly a holdover from a scrapped development concept). | |

Arc Number | |

Arc Number: The number 8 is all over the place, being a game based on the legend of Orochi, the eight-headed snake. The first major boss is the Spider Queen, whose shadowed form is even played to look like Orochi before she is revealed, and both she and the Bandit Spiders have eight vulnerable points inside their abdomen-flowers. You get a shield made of eight orbs while fighting Crimson Helm that absorbs eight hits for free; said orbs were donated from the (eight) Satomi Canine Warriors. The door leading to Orochi's temple is marked with an infinity sign (an 8 turned on its side), and to gain access to his chamber Amaterasu has to hit the Epicurean Bell eight times in a row. You get Orochi drunk off sake that was purified eight times and poured into eight vats. You only chop off eight of Ninetails' tails, which wield the same elemental powers as Orochi's eight heads. | |

Back for the Finale | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_931fc523 | comment |
Back for the Finale: During the final battle with Yami, using certain brush techniques will cause notable past characters linked to said brush technique to assist in attacking or support: Using Crescent summons Nagi's spirit to slice Yami in half and expose the core for Ammy. Using Veil of Mist, in addition to slowing time, causes Queen Himiko's spirit to appear overhead and restore solar energy. Using Thunderstorm on the core calls forth the ghost of Real Rao who dishes the core multiple rapid slashes. Using Blizzard on the core makes Oki somehow appear, despite the fact he isn't a spirit/dead. He dukes out a powerful blow from his sword. | |

Exposition Fairy | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_95a2cbd4 | comment |
In Tsuta Ruins, there is a very obvious (purple) lake of poison water. Amaterasu's Exposition Fairy prompts her to draw a lily pad on the water, which is instantly destroyed. Once you destroy the totems that are polluting the water, it immediately clears. The same purple water appears in other places as a course hazard. If Ammy falls in she dies instantly, with a howl that will haunt your dreams. | |

Enchanted Forest | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_966f0c70 | comment |
Enchanted Forest: Agata Forest is a misty forest with a murky lake where, according to legend, the moonlight cannot be reflected because it was literally eaten by a big fish known as the Whopper. The forest of Yoshpet in Kamui was very magic even before the dark forces moved in. The forest expels any outlier after a time limit, making Amaterasu need the guidance of Kai (and later Issun) when heading to a destination that can only be reached through this forest. | |

Big Bad: Orochi is Amaterasu's Arch-Enemy who rules over Eastern Nippon and forces pure maidens to be sacrificed to him so he can become god of the underworld. Until he is defeated, at which point Ninetails, ruler of Oni Island, takes over, leading the demon invasion of Ryoshima Coast, killing Rao and tricking Amaterasu into giving over the Fox Rods; though both he/she/it and Orochi are working for the real villain, Yami, the God of Darkness who wiped out the Moon Clan and leads all the demons. | |

Double Jump | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_9af10b44 | comment |
Double Jump: Acquired from the Ryoshima Dojo. At the Kamui Dojo, you can even upgrade it to make it damage enemies during battle. It's one of the "God Techniques", which according to the sensei cannot be learned by ordinary people (or wolves). It should also be noted that after having learned the Holy Eagle technique (double jump) you can later upgrade it to a triple jump. Considering that by the end of the game Amaterasu can walk on water, summon lightning, water, ice, and fire, walk up walls, and make plants bloom, a Double Jump is really the least of her abilities. | |

As Lethal as It Needs to Be: Amaterasu's Power Slash ability can cleanly cut trees, boulders and various minor demons in half, but when performed on friendly NPCs, it will simply knock them back. Justified, as Amaterasu is supposedly the one doing this, and theoretically she'd be able to control the strength of her own power so she doesn't accidentally hurt anyone. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: During every encounter with Waka, the "half-baked prophet" will dish out vague predictions of events to come, and he reminds Ammy and Issun of the predictions after they come true. Orochi's spirit flies away after he is defeated. It is returning to the Ark of Yamato, which releases more evils upon the land, which the rest of the game focuses on defeating. While Taka Pass is still cursed, the Cutter house doesn't seem affected. The Cutters are really demons, so of course the evil does nothing to them. Kaguya is notable for having blonde hair, and she wears pink and is associated with the Moon, even turning out to be from there and returning in a spaceship. This all foreshadows the revelations behind Waka, the other blond character in the game, who also wears pink and is one of the last of the Moon Tribe, who unwittingly led demons to destroy the Celestial Plain and brought them to Earth. Since then, he has been working to aid Amaterasu in restoring Nippon and the Celestial Plain to atone for his errors. If you look closely at the early sections where Issun tries to use Celestial Brush techniques, he uses an ordinary brush with a green handle as opposed to Amaterasu's tail. That's the same brush the narrator used at the intro's beginning. If you retrieve Abe's Tao Mask by defeating Hayazo in his fourth and final race (which requires learning a brush technique from Oni Island), he'll tell you that Waka is the only recorded founder of the Tao Troopers in the last 200 years, foreshadowing that he's been alive for far longer than it seemed. This foreshadowing is twofold, because Issun then remarks that such a period of time is "nothing for [him]", but unusually long for a living human; though at this time it seems like Issun is being sarcastic, it turns out Issun is from a species of Poncles that can live for very long as well. | |

Made of Evil: Every villain disperses into a dark, malevolent cloud (with glowing evil eyes) once beaten, and flows back to the Final Boss. Which is pretty fitting, considering Yami is the source of all Evil/Darkness in the setting. Interestingly, one sub-boss, Red Helm, has it in his backstory as having spontaneously sprung from the spilled blood of Orochi, a bigger bad. | |

Most Definitely Not a Villain: Rao seems genuinely good at first. When she lets you get eaten by the sea dragon while she escapes easily, it leaves you a little suspicious, if amused. You get a bit more suspicious when you notice she is the only character to ever mention the Fox Rods as a means to defeat the demons. Then you learn the Fox Rods are an Artifact of Doom that belongs to the Evil Overlord and that all the demons are actively trying to get it back. And just after that, She appears totally out of nowhere in a place supposedly inaccessible to humans, trembles with anticipation when you say you found the object, and gazes upon it before leaving. But hey, she says she will use it to fight the demons and banish evil, so What Could Possibly Go Wrong? | |

Weak, but Skilled | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_9eb11fac | comment |
Weak, but Skilled: Waka fights Amaterasu twice, and though he loses he urges her to get stronger. It's clear that he's far stronger than Ammy through most of the game's beginning and middle because he shows up to help in the very final fight, and manages to block a full strength blast from Yami long enough to deliver a Final Speech. It helps he's been awake and active for 100 years while Amaterasu was weakened Sealed Good in a Can, but he's still just a mortal and survives fighting gods. | |

Horror Doesn't Settle for Simple Tuesday | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_9ee065ab | comment |
Horror Doesn't Settle for Simple Tuesday: Orochi demands his sacrifice on Kamiki Village's annual Full Moon Festival; Yami attacks Amaterasu on the centennial solar eclipse. Justified in the latter case since a) she's the sun goddess and b) it's implied Yami has the power to bring this about. | |

The Unchosen One: Played with. Amaterasu, Goddess of the Sun, is acknowledged by all the other gods and spirits as the one to restore the beauty of Nippon, but as far as the human world is concerned, the inept and lazy Susano (and Nagi, his ancestor) are the legendary heroes. Played with still further when Susano reveals that he knows he's the Fake Ultimate Hero — and then, when the chips are altogether down, summons up some heroism and delivers the final blow without any help from Ammy. | |

Event-Driven Clock: It isn't completely real-time, but day and night come and go every few minutes, and the world (i.e. characters, quests, and conversations) changes accordingly. Once you learn the brushstrokes, though, you can force day or night to occur or continue and keep the world in perpetual day/night as well. The only time you can't Take Your Time is when you must make it to Oni Island before sunset, or else the island will disappear. And it will disappear if you take too long, making you start the whole sequence over. | |

First Town: Kamiki Village is where Amaterasu has rested in statue form for 100 years after having defeated Orochi. So when she's brought back to life, she proceeds to enter the River of Heavens that is next to her former resting spot and afterwards restores Kamiki Village to its usual form. Upon doing so, she has to complete some more errands in order to leave the village and properly start her adventure. | |

She's a Man in Japan | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_a0955420 | comment |
She's a Man in Japan: For some bizarre reason, the section of the English manual explaining some of the game's more esoteric references tries to claim that the game's version of Amaterasu is genderless. Why the manual does this when characters in the English version of the game constantly refer to Ammy as a female (as she is in the Japanese version and, for that matter, the original mythology) is inexplicable. It's possibly because Ammy openly ogles female characters including most notably Rao, to the point of ignoring Issun's warning because she's literally Distracted by the Sexy. | |

Journey to the Sky | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_a186b0a6 | comment |
Journey to the Sky: As Amaterasu and Issun explore the islands of West Ryoshima Coast, they eventually reach one in which the fabled Catcall Tower was erected. As they try to figure out the origin of the meows (audible even in the surroundings of the island), they proceed to climb it thanks to the luminous golden marks left by Kabegami, the god of walls and one of the 13 brush gods. It's a very tall tower divided into eight levels (the number is not a coincidence), its top is shrouded into the clouds and has a large cat statue. Reaching there and feeding the nearby cat (the one who is meowing) summons Kabegami, who proceeds to grant Amaterasu the Catwalk ability; this skill proves useful later for the location of the Dragon Palace, the homeland of the now-enraged Water Dragon. At the end of the game, after Amaterasu manages to defeat Yami the Lord of Darkness, she and Waka start piloting the now-purified Ark of Yamato to embark their trip to the realm of heavens, since their duties to protect Nippon have only begun. | |

Doomed by Canon: In-universe example — when Amaterasu and Issun wind up in Kamiki Village 100 years ago, they find themselves having to re-enact the very battle with Orochi as told in legend. Issun, remembering how this one ended with "Shiranui" dying, is very nervous about it. They defeat Orochi without incident but Shiranui appears in time to save Nagi from a falling boulder — and Shiranui, as we find out later, is already dying from a mortal wound inflicted elsewhere. | |

Double-Meaning Title: This game takes advantage of how the long-o prefix denotes something big or great, making the term "great god", as well as the word normally being Japanese for "wolf". As noted in the Anime section, kami can also mean "paper" or "hair," which suits someone who manifests her powers by painting things with a brush. Also, wolf hair is a typical material in calligraphy pens. | |

| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_a7aef9ff | comment |
Obfuscating Stupidity: If talked to at the Cave of Nagi during the festival, Susano lets slip he is aware of Amaterasu's divinity, possibly the entire time. How much else he is faking is left to interpretation. At times, Ammy seems to use this to fool enemies, like Ninetails. | |

Visible to Believers | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_a86508ad | comment |
Visible to Believers: The protagonist, Amaterasu, can be seen by the other characters but her facial markings can only be seen by those who still believe in the gods. Those who can't assume she's just an ordinary wolf. There are two sisters, the younger of whom believes in the gods (and can see Ammy's true form) while her older sister cannot. If you perform enough Celestial Brush powers for her, though, the older sister does start to believe, and will comment that she can see "faint" markings on Ammy. | |

Lunacy | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_a8c9ac97 | comment |
Lunacy: Yumigami is a rabbit god who gives you the power of Crescent, allowing you to change day to night. It's ocassionaly useful. There are more Demon Scrolls at night in case you wanna grind, enemies on wanted list only appear during nighttime, certain events can only happen at night, and one boss allows it to somehow be used as an attack. There are Mr. and Mrs. Cutter, two crow tengu who disguise themselves as human. Mrs. Cutter specifically says that during the full moon their kind gets too excited for them to move outside without exposing themselves. Yami, the Final Boss, is meant to represent the cold and lifeless moon in contrast to Amaterasu, the sun goddess. | |

Partly Cloudy with a Chance of Death: A looming solar eclipse (it happens at the speed of plot, but still) leads up to your confrontation with Yami, the lord of darkness. When you finally meet him, the sun goes completely dark and things get worse. By the way, you are playing as the Shinto sun goddess, Amaterasu. | |

All Ogre-type enemies (Bud Ogres, Chimera, Igloo Turtles). Keep attacking them to stun them, then use a brush technique to open their core to damage before they get back up. | |

Fire, Ice, Lightning | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_abfb19ba | comment |
Fire, Ice, Lightning: Three brush techniques use these elements, and behave the same way — you can draw a line from a source of the element to a target, or draw a special symbol for a stronger, more expensive attack. The three final weapons — the Solar Flare reflector, Tundra Beads, and Thunder Edge glaive — are always emanating an element (fire, ice, and electricity respectively), so Ammy always has an elemental source to draw from.note Those three weapons also happen to be the ones that aren't carried over the New Game Plus, as otherwise they would break the game in unintended ways. Water exhibits somewhat similar behavior, as a line of it can be drawn from the source to a target and another, more expensive brush technique produces a brief rainstorm, but there is no water-elemental weapon and water does not directly damage most enemies (it still slows them down or has other effects, and a handful of enemies are weak to water). | |

Money Is Experience Points: Played with. Initially, you only use praise, the game's form of experience, to upgrade Amaterasu. However, once you upgraded all your stats and maxed out your praise, any praise you collected would be converted into yen, which can then be used to buy items. Meanwhile, abilities could be learned at a dojo by paying yen. | |

In reverse, Ammy has two weaknesses that enemies exploit: she is quite weak to cursed/polluted areas (they make her lose her ink and thus power, which gets actively used by the Tube Fox enemies) and — as the Sun Godess — is weak against darkness (which the Final Boss uses against her). | |

During minigames where you need to draw something within a time limit (such as the Konohana Shuffle or Blockheads), Issun will also remind you what you need to draw a certain pattern even if the problem is the game failing to register the pattern rather than you not drawing anything. | |

Giant Hands of Doom: The final form of Yami, the final boss is a giant hand attached to an orb. This is repeated in Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, where Yami is again the final boss. Its grab super is downright lethal. In the sunken ship area, there is a room where a giant seaweed monster lives. When you enter the room, two gigantic hands rise out of the water and attempt to crush Ammy and/or push her off into the waters below. Fortunately, the monster can be killed by draining the water from the room, and then rolling spiked cylinders across its face until it dies. | |

Accidental Misnaming: That people forget or mess up Amaterasu's name is something of a Running Gag. While Issun's kind enough to think up a relatively cute, inoffensive nickname (Ammy, though he doesn't always use it), most people just end up calling her things like "Snowy" or "Fido". Justified in that she looks to everyone like a normal white wolf, so most assume she is a simple beast and won't care. | |

Ms. Fanservice: Sakuya, the benevolent wood sprite—her personal motif is peaches, and her dress is both very low-cut and has an opening at the derriere so as to show how much she resembles a peach, herself. And that's just her weakened form. The form you'll see the most has her wearing a bra that shouldn't even be able to hold up her breasts, and what looks like a belt with two tapestries hanging from it. She was originally going to have a third outfit that was even more revealing, but this was cut. Rao has heavy eye makeup, a beauty mark, Sultry Bangs, and is well endowed with large breasts that are shown off by her outfit and never go unremarked upon. Her theme music also includes sultry woman's sighs. The real Rao wasn't much of a slouch, either, since she was still as buxom and her outfit accentuated it the same way, despite Rao lacking a beauty mark and leaving both eyes uncovered. | |

Variable Mix | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_b06ff73b | comment |
Variable Mix: Going into important and/or busier areas of some maps would add an extra layer of music. Also, most "overworld" musics have two versions, which one is playing depends on plot point and the time of day, most of the time. Example: Spend a full day from morning to dusk in Shinshu Field, and you'll notice that, while it's mostly orchestral and gentle at first, busy percussion and other instruments fade in as the day progresses. And when it nears sundown, that part fades out again. | |

Grimy Water | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_b16543d2 | comment |
Grimy Water: In Tsuta Ruins, there is a very obvious (purple) lake of poison water. Amaterasu's Exposition Fairy prompts her to draw a lily pad on the water, which is instantly destroyed. Once you destroy the totems that are polluting the water, it immediately clears. The same purple water appears in other places as a course hazard. If Ammy falls in she dies instantly, with a howl that will haunt your dreams. Later on there's a Womb Level where you have to use lily pads to move across a river of stomach acid. The acid functions just like water, except rather than costing you a unit of health if you stay in too long, it damages your health directly, and lily pads drawn on it will progressively shrink. | |

Level-Map Display: The game makes use of a detailed map display that is placed by default at a part of the screen, but by holding a specific button you can display the map in the screen's center with a larger scale; this is useful to see how to reach a desired exact spot (often one marked as the next story destination). Inside a dungeon, it is necessary to collect a map first. | |

As a Heroic Mime she says nothing but seems amused. Then you beat Orochi, find Susano in the Cave of Nagi... and you learn that he knew Amaterasu was a god all along, much to Issun's surprise. He craftily waited until the defeat of Orochi to reveal that he knew, and this is an optional conversation that is well out of your way. He IS the descendant of Nagi, after all... | |

Treacherous Advisor: You wind up consulting High Priestess Rao for help fixing the cursed mess that is Sei-an City and the Ryoshima Coast. Too bad she'd been killed months earlier, and you turn out to have been dealing with Demon Lord Ninetails, who was responsible for a lot of it and had been trying to use you as a Macguffin Delivery Service for the Fox Rods or, failing that, get you killed. It works pretty well, too, and only some very quick thinking and a Heroic Sacrifice on Queen Himiko's part allow Ammy to stop Ninetails. | |

Boss-Altering Consequence: The Exorcism Slips are typically meant to be used during fights with normal enemies, inflicting powerful damage to finish them off faster. However, if the player brings an Exorcism Slip L with them to the first fight against Orochi, they can use it to instantly end the first phase of the battle after exposing the boss' weak point. However, the trick isn't effective during the second and third fights against Orochi; attempting to use an Exorcism Slip L on him at these points still leaves him with a third of his health. | |

Big Boo's Haunt: The game has a Mini-Dungeon like this on a sunken ship, where the ghosts of those who perished want to harm you. You can only kill them with the priestess on your back, who accompanies you on that mission and uses dispelling slips of paper to attack. Also features a scary bit where the ghost of the spider boss (whose face looks like a dead girl) dive-bombs the actual TV screen and shrieks at you. It doesn't help that the ghosts can move while you use the Celestial Brush, which very few enemies ever do. This makes them even more unsettling, since it's kind of an Interface Screw. | |

Youkai | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_bea77379 | comment |
Youkai: Unsurprisingly, many of the monsters are based on classic Japanese folklore. Orochi is the first main antagonist of the game, with the legend around him forming the basis for the Kamiki legend in the game. Ninetails, the villain of the Ryoshima Coast arc, is a kitsune, being a nine-tailed fox creature with the ability to take the form of a beautiful woman. Blockheads are based on nurikabe, youkai that function as living walls who block travelers' passage. Chimera enemies are based on the nue, a creature with a monkey's head, tiger's legs, and snake tail, with the added element of their bodies being kettles (nue's bodies are tanuki-like). Both flavors of tengu are featured with the Crow Tengu being birdlike, and the Great Tengu being the more humanoid "long-nosed tengu" version. The Ubume enemies are named after the ubume youkai, seeming to draw from their interpretation as child-snatching bird monsters. Poltergeist enemies are based on kamaitachi, "sickle weasels", who ride the wind with sharp blades in hand. The Namahage enemies are directly based on the youkai of the same name, being oni-faced mountain monsters in straw coats. The Spider Queen is named after the jorogumo (prostitute spider/entangling bride) in the Japanese version, though she's far from alluring in this depiction. The ominous soundtrack in the area before her boss fight is played on a biwa lute as well, which is the instrument the jorogumo was said to play in legends to lure people to her. The wheel and Doom Mirror enemies seem inspired by the wanyudo, a monk's head on a flaming wheel. The former are wheels with elemental powers, and the latter are elemental mirrors with faces in the middle. The lanterns in the Moon Cave are chochin-obake, as evidenced when you Power Slash them and see that they have tongues. | |

Mind Screw: Amaterasu is saved, twice, mind you, by her past incarnation Shiranui who comes directly from the past to help her future self since she lost most of her power after being sealed in a statue. There are two versions of the same god in one place. | |

Womb Level: The game does this twice. Once in the stomach of the Emperor of Japan, another inside of a giant dragon. This trope is deconstructed in the dragon level, as it turns out all that meddling with the dragon's internal organs does kill him. | |

Invisible to Normals: Amaterasu's red markings and Divine Instruments are completely unseen by most humans—she's just a strangely intelligent white wolf/dog to them. Even some demons have this problem: When Amaterasu tries to enter Orochi's stronghold, the demon guards stop her, not because she is Amaterasu but because she is just a "dumb wolf." | |

Weaksauce Weakness | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_c09dbbbb | comment |
Weaksauce Weakness: Orochi's vulnerability to sake (or rather, being drunk), Yami's vulnerability to certain brush techniques Bloom, in Stage 1, and Sunlight, in the last stage. Other minor minions have similar weaksauce weaknesses, some of which can be exploited immediately after you kill them to gain Demon Fangs. In reverse, Ammy has two weaknesses that enemies exploit: she is quite weak to cursed/polluted areas (they make her lose her ink and thus power, which gets actively used by the Tube Fox enemies) and — as the Sun Godess — is weak against darkness (which the Final Boss uses against her). | |

| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_c0d3d3fd | comment |
Border Patrol: The water dragon in West Ryoshima Coast. It is actually possible to bypass it using the lily pad brush power, but it's very difficult to do. As the story progresses, the dragon becomes less of a problem with the help of Orca, who is faster than it (and immune to its attacks anyway). Later on the dragon is killed, allowing the waters to be traversed safely. | |

Ventriloquist Animal | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_c20297ee | comment |
Ventriloquist Animal: Most animals remain static when speaking to Amaterasu. While the game doesn't give most of its characters visible mouths with which to speak, they usually bob up and down while talking; save for more anthropomorphic characters like the Molesters and Sparrow Clan, the animals that do communicate— whether they be regular animals or gods— give no gestures to indicate speech. This even extends to Orochi, who does have a visible and mobile mouth, but doesn't actually use it to speak (possibly justified in his case, given that reptilian body structures aren't particularly well-equipped for vocalizing past grumbles and roars). | |

Broken Bridge | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_c5f23623 | comment |
Broken Bridge: Used a few times, most directly in the form of 'curse zones', which (if stumbled into) turn the background rather trippy, and slowly chip off Amaterasu's health (unless escaped from, or her 'health-bubble' runs out). There are also a couple of literal broken bridges, some of which you immediately fix. One interesting example is the broken staircase that leads to Orochi's lair. Amaterasu must travel through a set of caves as an alternate way to reach Orochi. The interesting part is that, much later on, Amaterasu winds up traveling back in time to before the staircase was destroyed and uses it to confront Orochi again, this time without getting sidetracked. There is the held-up bridge at the City Checkpoint and the closed bridge in between the Commoners and Aristocratic Quarters. Funnily enough, they were invented by the same person. | |

Idle Animation: In the first play-through of the game, if you don't press any buttons on the controller, Amaterasu will first sit down, then yawn, & finally lie down & take a nap. Then, later on you get an item that, when equipped, restores your health during the idle animation, at the cost of some of your in-game currency. | |

Offscreen Teleportation | |

Offscreen Teleportation: All of the recurring travelers. How does a cute girl with a weird hat and her little sister reach Sei-an City before a physical god? There's also the time a character says she wants to go someplace halfway across the continent, starts running, and has completely vanished by the time gameplay resumes in the same location. Onigiri-sensei takes this trope up to eleven by managing to be virtually in three places at the same time. Go to Shinshū? He's here! Teleport to Ry�shima? Oh, he's here again! Teleport to Kamui? Good to see you! Komuso (the travelling monk) shows up at Kamiki, Kusa and Sei-an, but even more impressively, at Sasa Sanctuary, which is supposedly an unreachable destination in-game but for those rare few who are favored by its inhabitants. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: For starters, there are some to other Clover games, like Viewtiful Joe and God Hand. Amaterasu's ink-less kicks are just like John Talbain's. Also, when Amaterasu is shrunk by the Magic Mallet, the Imperial Palace guards are identical to Colossi from Shadow of the Colossus, down to the ominous shining eyes. And Mrs. Orange makes her Cherry Cakes using the Shun Goku Satsu. With a Marvel vs Capcom 3 lampshading years later: The Dojo Master's transformation from doddering old man to able trainer is done pose for pose in the exact same manner as Joe's transformation into Viewtiful Joe. Shortly before your first fight with him, Waka shouts "Let's rock, baby!" The second time you fight him, he shouts "Just go for it!" One of Tama's explosives is dubbed the "Midnight Wonder Boy", an allusion to "Midnight Thunder Boy", the name of a chapter in Viewtiful Joe, which introduced Alastor. One of the kimono designs you can create is a letter V, which is referred to as the "henshin" pattern. Waka's design was evidently inspired by Science Ninja Team Gatchaman. And as per the developers, his mannerisms of using a flute and sword is based on another Tatsunoko show, Yattodetaman. To The Legend of Zelda, notable for managing to make more and less blatant allusions to the featured concept or mechanic of several Zelda releases where one is present: To explore the ocean, you sail around on a talking animal, or hop on a lily pad and blow yourself around with gusts of air. To help cure a diseased individual, you have to enter the man's body by shrinking to minuscule size. To infiltrate a lair, you have to disguise yourself by wearing a mask. And indeed, time-travel is invoked at some point. The fight with the Spider Queen is extremely reminiscent of the Kalle Demos fight in The Wind Waker. The boss's abdomen is a giant carnivorous flower that contains the character you have been looking for, and she must be damaged by opening the flower and attacking the core before it closes around you. The main difference is that with Kalle Demos, Link had to cut down the vines holding up the flower. The Spider Queen must be made vulnerable by creating vines. And of course, at the very beginning of the tutorial, Issun lampshades that the only purpose of pots is to be smashed for goodies. Although most of the game makes references to Japanese mythology, the concept of an ancient wolf bringing the sun into the sky was also part of Norse mythology. Sasa Sanctuary is a bathhouse run by sparrows, and during one quest there where you help a sparrow find his dog, he references another famous bathhouse by asking the dog Amaterasu finds if "that white wolf spirited you away over here." | |

Magic Dance: The game features Mr. Orange performing the Konohana Shuffle (after consuming an entire jug of "Sake of Valor") to restore Kamiki Village's most sacred tree. While Amaterasu blooms the flowers in time with the dance ritual, it is impossible to blossom the giant tree without his help and the opening steps of his dance bloom three boughs of the giant tree in succession. Another old man by the name of Mr. Flower has the Gura Shuffle, which he claims to have learned from "a certain flower dance master." His dance does not directly bloom the trees, but it lifts the remnants of a curse from the trees Amaterasu cannot bloom herself, allowing them to be restored. | |

Counter-Attack | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_cb42ed9f | comment |
Amaterasu can equip 3 kinds of weapons, 2 of which fits this: "reflectors", basically mirror shields which she bludgeons people to death with (and counters attacks), and "rosaries", chain of beads which she either whips people with or shoot projectiles from. The last one are standard BFSes. She also uses a paintbrush. That one, at least, is not her "main" weapon, but instead used to draw magic symbols for her magic attacks. | |

Boundareefs: The Ryoshima Coast is surrounded by some rocky formations that prevent Orca (and later Amaterasu when she has access to the Water Tablet) from going further into the ocean. However this brings a question: how did the Sunken Ship get past them? | |

Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Inverted; you may be a god, but quite a few mortals manage to give you quite a thrashing.

Obliviously Beautiful: Priestess Rao seems oblivious to her effect on men and is baffled by Issun's comments about "melons" and being "stacked to the ceiling". Ostensibly it's because she is a holy woman and too innocent to understand. In reality, it is because she is the demon Ninetails in disguise. | |

The Corruption | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_cf168867 | comment |
The Corruption: The game plays this trope a bit more unconventionally, in that the corrupting force doesn't affect an individual person, but rather an environment; a dark red mist spawned by Orochi as well as Ninetails, Lechku & Nechku, and ultimately Yami turns whole portions of Nippon into desolate brownish-gray landscapes where demons are allowed to run amok. These affected areas tend to feature Cursed Zones, which are so saturated in red mist that they physically harm Amaterasu, drowning her if she stays in them for too long. At one point, Ammy finds Kusa Village completely enveloped by a Cursed Zone, but because it's stretched out over a much larger area than normal, the worst it does is drain her ink without letting her recover it until she leaves or purifies the area. Additionally, during the battle against Orochi, his shadow-element head attacks by spitting out purple buds that spray out clouds of red mist, temporarily turning the battlefield into a mild Cursed Zone on-par with Kusa Village. He does it again during the battles with True Orochi 100 years in the past and on the Ark of Yamato. | |

Take Your Time: The trope is usually played straight, but there's one exception: Oni Island before the next day arrives and it moves to a new location. Wait too long, and you'll have to start over. A later sequence in the game tells you about the coming Day of Darkness, when the sun will be swallowed and there's nothing you can do about it. Since you're the Goddess of the Sun, this would be a Very Bad Thing but of course, no matter how much you dawdle, the sun is only swallowed the moment the final boss stares you down, leaving you powerless. | |

Developer's Foresight | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_d24ed873 | comment |
Developer's Foresight: If you try to raise the sun before you receive the tutorial, it won't work, but Issun will remark on it when you gain the ability, noting that you seemed to know what you were doing. Enemy arenas can be escaped by attacking a rift in the edge and jumping out. Because some battles may start near walls, there are two rifts in each arena so you aren't trapped by a rift you can't jump out of. Every member of the Oina tribe in Kamui has an animal form — even the merchants! Just cast Bloom on them and they'll transform for you. When carrying either Susano, Kushi, or Nagi on your back, you can run around Kamiki Village and the villagers will comment about it. And if you take Susano all the way to the statue of Nagi past the River of the Heavens, he's completely unphased by the experience; Issun even wonders if he's been there before. If you go out of your way to the Cave of Nagi during the Kamiki Festival, Susano and Kushi are there with extra dialogue. If you're using a Karmic Transformer on a New Game Plus, the early cutscene with Mr Orange's perspective will correctly show the depowered form of the Karmic Transformer you're using. | |

Bringing up the Brush screen causes time to effectively stop so you can draw brushstrokes (mostly) unhindered.

Tactical Suicide Boss | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_d6dee153 | comment |
Tactical Suicide Boss: Orochi is only vulnerable after you get his various heads drunk and you can only truly damage him after knocking out all eight of his heads. To get him drunk, you draw the sake below him into his mouth when he roars, and he roars after you thwart his attacks. He cannot learn to avoid this strategy all three times he is fought. Ninetails. In the first part of the battle, drawing lightning to her sword when she lifts it up for a charged attack is the only way to make her vulnerable. When doing a ranged attack, Blight throws all his swords at you, including the one that the Blight entity is actually within, and it's very visually distinct from the rest because it is glowing blue. If Blight stuck to just melee and dash attacks, it wouldn't be fine - Amaterasu has Blight's Kryptonite Factor, namely time-slow - but it'd certainly reduce the number of opportunities to power-slash the sword out of the sky and wail on it. | |

Anti-Frustration Features: Limited yet regenerating ink is a key game mechanic, but the game also provides consumable Inkfinity Stone items that give unlimited ink for a brief time to make tasks or fights that might require fast repeated ink use easier. Catcall Tower is a lengthy climb up the outside of a very tall pillar. Fortunately, at several points during the climb, a golden ring of clouds will form, creating a solid platform that will catch players who fall and ensuring that they'll only ever have to redo the last segment, not the entire climb. The game has a journal feature in the menu that archives story hints and prompts from Issun, making it easy to check what your last task or direction was if you're coming back to the game after a while and don't remember what you were doing when you left off. | |

Holding Out for a Hero: Inverted. Although you, playing Amaterasu, have been helping the braggart swordsman Susano achieve fame by performing miraculous feats which he believes are his own, it doesn't take him long to realize that he's being "played with" by the gods. He then renounces any further help and goes off on his own. Although you do get to assist him one last time, against Orochi, he deals the final blow all by himself. Additionally, although Amaterasu is able to defeat Yami, the Lord of Eternal Darkness, it's only because the faith of all the people of Nippon granted her the divine might to do so. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_d99a228f | comment |
Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Amaterasu is in the form of a wolf for the entirety of the game. Most people see Amaterasu merely as a wolf, but some spiritually sensitive individuals (such as a particular little girl) can see her colorful markings and hovering holy weapons; two very powerful characters refer to her as a gorgeous young woman, apparently able to see her true form. But even then, most of the population finds nothing odd about a white wolf wandering the city, buying items from shops, and offering rides on magically created lily pads to passersby. This is justified by the town's shrine implying that white wolves are seen as special, but a few especially thick peasants think she's just a strange dog. Doing miracles right before them - unless scripted to be something relevant - usually does nothing more than make the person look at it in confusion or get scared for a second and then forget all about it. A tree that just shoots out of the ground before you? Water that flies across the street? You getting set on fire? Nothing unusual about that. | |

Battle Butler | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_d9d8fd35 | comment |
Battle Butler: A scrap of paper infused with a demon of sorts serves as "gatekeeper" to one of the game's bosses. While his only means of halting Amaterasu involve racing past her to shut gates, he has the full personality of a Battle Butler. To the point that a literal piece of paper is considered the Worthy Opponent of a Physical God. | |

Fake Ultimate Hero: Susano, though he ends up being a Real Ultimate Hero by flipping out and dealing the final blow to Orochi unaided to save his Love Interest turned Damsel in Distress. Nagi himself also serves this role, as when you first meet him in person, he's every bit as lazy and cowardly as Susano. And like Susano, he ends up being a Real Ultimate Hero when it's all over. The Bestiary says that his apparent laziness and cowardliness is actually an act to fool his enemies, though this could just be him being viewed as such over time. | |

The game features Mr. Orange performing the Konohana Shuffle (after consuming an entire jug of "Sake of Valor") to restore Kamiki Village's most sacred tree. While Amaterasu blooms the flowers in time with the dance ritual, it is impossible to blossom the giant tree without his help and the opening steps of his dance bloom three boughs of the giant tree in succession. | |

World Tree: The Sacred Tree of Konohana, which generally gets refered to as 'Sakuya's Tree'. It also has seedlings (known as 'Guardian Saplings') all over the land, which protect the land. Every time Amaterasu revives one, a fruit grows on Sakuya's tree, which can be cut down for a treasure of some sort. | |

A God Am I: A downplayed heroic example. Nagi declares himself the guardian deity of Kamiki Village. Fits only partially, since in Shinto local heroes are pretty much expected to become kami after death. Ninetails fights you in a mockery of the Celestial Plain where you meet brush gods and can use the Celestial Brush (though it has red ink here.) He even awaits you in a constellation! It gets subverted when you get rid of his tails and he reveals his true form... An old, wounded, fox. | |

Heroic Second Wind: In the climax of the game, after the Hope Spot against Yami and the combined energy attack that restores Amaterasu to her full, ultimate divine glory, casting "Sunrise" (Ammy's own Celestial Brush skill, but rarely used in the game) destroys Yami's so-called "eternal darkness" and makes it vulnerable to attack. But by that point, powered by the faith of all the people of Nippon, Ammy is so incredibly and awesomely ass-kicking badass that Yami isn't so much beaten as thoroughly trounced. Even the soundtrack agrees as the ominous Final Boss music makes way for Ammy's theme. | |

Gambit Pileup: Between the villain of Ryoshima Coast and Queen Himiko.

Meanwhile, Queen Himiko has holed herself in her chambers to search for the location of Oni Island, Ninetails' base. When Ninetails obtains the Fox Rods, Himiko allows herself to be killed to tap into the evil power and enter her crystal ball so she can locate the island for Amaterasu and give her a chance to defeat Ninetails. | |

Battle Theme Music | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_e08fcc99 | comment |
Battle Theme Music: The game has a strange distribution of boss music. The theme that is first heard when fighting Crimson Helm (the second boss) is also heard in the fight against Blight (the fourth boss) as well as in nearly every Mini-Boss fight. But Waka, a miniboss himself, uses a special remix of that theme for his own battles against the protagonist, while Nagi, Susano's ancestor (the last miniboss introduced in the game) uses a different theme altogether. Also, the Fishing Minigame has a dedicated battle music heard whenever Amaterasu is helping a fisher capture a particularly strong fish (Whopper in Agata Forest, Cutlass Fish in Sei-an City and Marlin in West Ryoshima Coast). All remaining opponents (the dungeon bosses other than Crimson Helm and Blight), including the Final Boss, have their own respective tracks. | |

Dub Name Change: An odd example. The names in the US version were not exactly changed but those who had four syllables or more (except Amaterasu) were shortened. Izanagi becomes Nagi, Kushinada becomes Kushi, Ushiwaka becomes Waka, Tsuzurao becomes Rao, Okikurumi becomes Oki, etc. The Japanese name of the final boss is Tokoyami no Sumeragi, literally "Emperor of Everlasting Darkness". However, the English translation shortened it to simply Yami, which means "darkness". | |

Odd Job Gods | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_e491684a | comment |
Odd Job Gods: The game features gods of assorted elements, rejuvenation, explosions, cutting, the Sun and Moon, and Kabegami, the god of walls. The game is based on Shinto, which has rather a lot of gods. When one wishes to refer to all of the Shinto gods collectively in Japanese, one speaks of "the eight million gods".note And that's not a strict limit, either. "Eight million" is an archaic Japanese euphemism for "a vast, possibly infinite number", the same way forty is used in the Bible. | |

11th-Hour Superpower | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_e5066b68 | comment |
Not all of the bonus brush techniques you can get in sidequests turn out to be as useful in combat as they sound. Especially since some of them only have effects on certain enemies (like using Deluge on a Great Tengu). And considering all the awesome powers your past self Shiranui demonstrated, you'd think that you'd also get to use them when your Eleventh Hour Superpowers activate during the final phase of the final boss, but nope, all you get is a fancy glow. | |

GameplayAndStoryIntegration | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_e6630c8b | comment |
Gameplay and Story Integration: The intro of the game mentions that in the battle between Shiranui and Orochi, Shiranui kept Orochi at bay by sprouting trees in front of it. In the Orochi fight, the primary means of defeating it is instead getting it drunk on sake and hitting it when its heads collapse and trees are never mentioned. However, in the second phase, while Orochi's heads alternate between elemental attacks and lunging, you can take advantage of the latter attack by sprouting a tree on the edge of the arena while it lunges, which will deal heavy damage to the head that lunges into the tree, rewarding players who paid close attention to the game's intro and thought to try the power mentioned in it. | |

Whack-a-Monster: There's a minigame like this that does feature moles. There's a ring of holes, and you need to headbutt the leader three times. You can predict where he'll pop up by the dirt clouds he sends up as he travels underground, but he's also got two or three henchmen doing the same thing to throw you off. And they speed up every time you make a successful hit. Fortunately you only ever need to do this once to fulfill a sidequest. | |

Have You Seen My God?: Sun goddess Amaterasu was killed in battle while under the guise of a wolf 100 years before the start of the game, unbeknownst to the public. She gets better, granted, but it turns out that a century-long absence of Nippon's chief deity isn't exactly a good thing when her power relies on the belief of her followers. | |

Mundane Utility: There is an NPC named Mrs. Orange, who uses Shun Goku Satsu (A.K.A. Instant Hell Murder A.K.A. Raging Demon A.K.A Akuma's signature move from Street Fighter) to make cakes. And they're delicious. Ammy herself gains a wide range of elemental-based, borderline Reality Warper abilities. One of the very first things she does with the power to make the sun come closer to the Earth? Helping the aforementioned Mrs. Orange dry her laundry. Most likely, were she not the Goddess of the Sun, the world would've been engulfed in flames. She also uses the Whirlwind skill to help a sushi chef carve up a fish, and Fireburst to light the fire for another chef's oven. And Cherry Bomb levels 2 and 3 just to cheer up the pyrotechnician. | |

Not Waka: he throws his sword(s) at you repeatedly, and you have to deflect them back at him with some skill to beat him. The Spider Queen may come as a nasty surprise to new players as well, especially since she can stomp on you. The Cutters, if you have been using weapons other than the disc class weapons, you will have a tough time killing them You have to defend with the disc when they attack to do an automatic counterattack. | |

Allergic to Evil: The whole world. Since evil is portrayed as contamination or pollution, everyone suffers. The most obvious example is the Blight which prostrates Sei-an City, leaving most of its residents sickly and hopeless. And then there's the cursed zones caused by Orochi's evil, which are so powerful they can even drain Ammy's power out of her. | |

Disc-One Final Dungeon: The game leads you to believe that Orochi is responsible for all the evil present in the world, and the supposed final dungeon is Moon Cave. But it's only all the evil represented in a small area of the world. Exploring the rest of the world leads to Oni Island, and an epic dungeon where you meet the Lord Of Darkness. Surely that's the end? No, that's 2/3 of the game. Only when reaching the Ark of Yamato, home of Yami, you're finally on the true last stage. | |

Dude, Where's My Respect? | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_f818b637 | comment |
Dude, Where's My Respect?: You do 99% of the work needed to slay Orochi, destroy Oni Island, take down thousands of demons, restore beauty to Nippon, and master the powers of explosions, fire, wind and water. And most people will still call you demeaning nicknames until the finale. They'll also take credit for your work, though Amaterasu does seem to be trying to make her contributions not so obvious. Issun and Amaterasu also tend to help others by letting them take credit, such as telling Kokari he rebuilt the bridge to Taka Pass to get his confidence back when really Amaterasu used her Vine brush skills to stop a rampaging log, or most times with Susano early on. These people generally come back to help later on, though, so letting them take the credit at first eventually pays off. Ironically, anything related to animals or nature tends to give Amaterasu the respect she deserves; restoring nature and feeding animals are two of the main ways to increase Amaterasu's Praise. So nature itself gives Amaterasu respect, but the humans generally don't. Subverted in the final battle when, thanks to Issun's propaganda, everyone realizes she was a god all along, and blame themselves for her difficulty. In the end, it's their sincere gratitude that gives Amaterasu the strength to defeat Yami once and for all. | |

Darkest Hour | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_f91d1d4f | comment |
Darkest Hour: First you have the tragic death of Queen Himiko and Race Against the Clock to reach Oni Island... but the real one is the legendary Day of Darkness, a day-long solar eclipse occuring once every 100 years, which applies in every sense of the word considering that you're the sun god. Not only that, but the blizzard in Kamui gets ten times stronger and threatens to freeze the entire village. | |

Equipment-Based Progression | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_fa59871 | comment |
Equipment-Based Progression: Though the game has a leveling system, it is independent from its combat system. The brush techniques may not be equipment, but they do add new powers, allowing for further exploration and more effective combat, as well as some puzzle-solving. | |

Weird Moon | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_fa686f29 | comment |
Weird Moon: When Amaterasu and Issun go through a Portal to the Past, the first sign that things are different is that the moon is full again. Amaterasu can also invoke this at will once she gets the Crescent technique, which baffles and confuses any bystanders. Also of note is the arena in which you battle Ninetails, in which the moon is red and covered with 9 dark streaks, symbolizing his influence over it. | |

Shatterpoint Tap | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_faa2e847 | comment |
Shatterpoint Tap: There are literal living walls blocking your paths that can only be destroyed with the celestial brush. When you approach them, you get a brief hint of where the weak points are in the enemy, then you have to use the brush to tap each of the weak points in the order that they appear to destroy it. If you miss even one, you have to start over. Quickly becomes hard sidequest when you encounter one with eight such points. | |

You Shouldn't Know This Already | |
| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_fc85fadc | comment |
You Shouldn't Know This Already: Justified with the Celestial Brush techniques. You need to find the correct god and release/rejuvenate it before you can use its technique. (Which means if you start a New Game Plus, you have to redo all of those subquests again.) It's also pointed out in-game: At the beginning of the game in Kamiki Village, if you try to use Sunrise without exploring the village, Issun will wonder what you're trying to do, "raise the sun or something? That's impossible!" | |

Spinning Piledriver: Deflecting certain attacks with a reflector equipped as a sub-weapon results in this. It is particularly effective against enemies that otherwise require you to wait until they can be attacked, or those that guard against attacks. | |

Video Game Cruelty Punishment: Head-butting or biting certain animals (adult boars, tigers and bears) and certain humans (Susano) will cause them to attack Amaterasu. Downplayed in that this has no real consequences, not even loss of HP. | |

Weaponized Animal: Amaterasu can wield various weapons which hover over her back. She starts out with a flaming mirror, but can also use other mirrors, swords, or rosaries (which are used like a whip or shot like bullets.) Oki also wields a sword, which hovers over his back when he is in wolf form, like Amaterasu. | |

Brick Joke: A Poncle will offer to design a seal for you. If you accept, you don't see your seal design again until a blink-and-you'll-miss-it scene right at the end of the credits. This does not appear in the Western Wii versions because the credits, including that scene, were cut out. An earlier one also appears, when you try to get into Orochi's lair you need to find a paper mask. After finding it, you can put any symbol you want on the mask. Once you reach Sei-an City and defeat Blight you'll see a little girl putting various drawings on the floors and walls. The first picture she does? The same symbol you put on your mask. | |

Racing Minigame: You can choose to battle two "postmen" in a race involving chasing the postman, attempting to tackle him before he runs out of eyeshot. In later races, spined balls are thrown at you in an attempt to slow you down. Near the end of the game, it's possible to challenge Kai in a race through the first half of the Yoshpet forest. Defeating her nets Amaterasu a Stray Bead. | |

| Ōkami (Video Game) / int_ff6ae1f6 | comment |
Evil-Detecting Dog: Amaterasu is a goddess taking the form of a white wolf. She's often seen preemptively reacting to threats before they appear onscreen. While Issun can usually also feel when a particular place has a bad vibe, there is one particular scene where this trope is played straight: when Amaterasu comes across a dead Queen Himiko and finds Rao also present and claiming to have witnessed the queen being attacked by a demon, Ammy immediately realizes that Rao is not who she says she is and attacks her. Issun thinks Ammy has gone crazy until "Rao" lets out an Evil Laugh. | |

Everything Trying to Kill You: The Yoshpet Forest. Walls of poison spines that you only have the tiniest space to jump through unharmed (and some move!), cursed trees that target you with their toxic fruit, poisoned water that kills with one touch, icicles that are expert at falling on top of you, gigantic snowballs rolling downhill towards you and even the air being so toxic that you can only remain in the forest for five minutes at a time - what isn't trying to kill you in Yoshpet? | |
