  4. Fuujin is the god of wind in Shinto folklore. He is also known as Kami-no-Kaze, which is where the word kamikaze originate from.

  7. Mamushi is the common name for a species of Japanese Pit Viper (Gloydius blomhoffii).
  8. Tanuki is a raccoon-dog spirit that possesses humans and causes them to become ravenous with gluttony. This kit is a reference to the Sly Cooper video game series, and the quote is a direct reference to a character's (Murray) description of his ability.
  9. Oni is an ogre or troll in Shinto folklore.
  10. Yasha are soldiers in Bishamon's army. Their leader, General Kubira, is believed to be a manifestation of Konpira, a god of Fishing, Seafaring & Farming.
