Kaguya’s Memories
Now, Okami is in pursuit of an unspeakable evil that was just exorcised from a nation’s ruler. Similarly, there is a giant leviathan blockading Sei-an city’s food supply. This should be a time to act on those. However, Okami, Issun, and even the game’s plot are sidetracked to the country’s mainland in order to settle a domestic situation between an amnesiac and her grandfather. I have a feeling the design team sent us back into a previous zone to remind us that the two halves of the game are still connected, despite the fact that all the characters from the first half have no relevance anymore. I think designers were really hitting the “mist” on this one.
No matter, head ALL THE WAY back to Sasa Sanctuary. There is a mermaid pool in the aristocrat section of Sei-an city that will lead you right to the sanctuary. At Sasa Sanctuary’s hot-water spring go up the ramps stairs. Walk back to the disco bamboo that at one point held the canine Tei.
Mr. Bamboo is talking to his super hot daughter about how happy he is to see her again. The girl starts glowing and then a hole explodes in the ground. There is some subterranean past that she has to uncover. She dives down the hole. We follow her because, I don’t know why, I guess bubble headed girls just can’t dive down holes without needing our help.
This is another digging game. The rules are the same as the previous occurrences. See the extra help below because this one is a bit tricky:
- Dig straight down
- Head right at the first purple spike stone then dig down- Head right and dig down to the black stones
- Then Left
- This is the most critical step and if not done properly, you must select retry
- When you see the waterhole, dig straight down to it. Do not dig any of the blocks adjacent to it (except for the on just to the right of it because you need to get out).
- Let Kaguya fall into the water. Then, water jet her back up. Make sure she ends up on the left side of the water feature.
- Dig down through the 3 blocks located on the absolute left side of the map.
- Continue to the right end of the map from there.
- When Kaguya gets down to bedrock, she stops at a specific block
- dig there
Okami returns above-ground. I love this part because it is that scene
in a movie where a person from the distant past is thrust into modern
life and they say things like “what is this box with small people in it
who put on plays for us to watch” or “how can I hear you coming from
this shiny rock even though you are not near me.” A huge rocket ship
comes out of the ground and Issun describes it as “a bamboo shoot,
except it’s metal and insanely huge.” Kaguya says it is the link to
her past.
Mr. Bamboo says that he knew the ship was there all along. Kaguya came from space and Mr. Bamboo had adopted her. He begs her not to leave. She agrees to be his granddaughter in memory but still must go. She gives us a fire tablet because we showed her that her grandfather was really trying to hide her secrets so that he could hold on to her. She blasts off and Mr bamboo cries.
