Ok, it's time for a Japanese fact... Let me just think of one...
How about Tamamo-no-Mae? That's what Blight is based on. Apparently.
(Alright yeah, I had to look at the Okami wiki for this one, but I knew Blight was based on something soooo.....)
(Also, I was right about Blight being very similar to the Virgil fight from DMC3, lol. The Okami wiki points out the similarities too.)
ALRIGHT. Tamamo-no-Mae is a story about- oh wait, actually this story is very spoilery for later parts of the game so... maybe this was a bad story to pick... frick.
Ok, fine. I'll think of a different one.
How about that cat boy? Yama? Yeah, let's talk about him.
He and his restaurant are based on a story called "The Restaurant of Many Orders", and this one contains no spoilers for the rest of Okami, so we're good.
Ok, two hungry hunters find a restaurant called "Restaurant Wildcat House Western-Style Cooking" in the middle of the woods. The rest of this story is kind of insane.
The restaurant has a door. There is a sign on the door that says "Welcome!". The men enter. There is another door. There is another sign on the door that says, "Welcome!" or something similar. The men enter. There is another door... Etc. Etc... Eventually they run into doors with orders for the men to do stuff like "Take off your clothes!" and "Rub this stuff on you."
Yes, I'm serious.
Anyway, the men are pissed and hungry, and they keep going through these doors when they finally realize that the owners of this creepy place are (cat) demons(?) who want to eat them. Also, I forgot to mention this, but the hunters also had dogs with them which randomly died for no reason at the beginning of the story. These dogs proceeded to come back to life for no reason and they kill the demons, saving the men. The men go back to Tokyo and are traumatized for life. The end.
Don't believe me? Wanna read it for yourself? Here, go ahead, it's short:
