Okami is not just a video game about a dog that kills evil. There is some
genuine depth to the storyline and supporting characters. The following are
some of the themes that pop up regularly throughout the game. Think about
what they mean and how they relate to the overall story.

IDENTITY: Amastura is a God who is visiting Earth in the form of a wolf.
She should appear just like a common animal. However, some characters in
Okami are able to see through her disguise. Pay special attention as to who
sees her for who she is, and who do not.

PRAISE: There are miracles afoot in Nippon and everyone is willing to take
credit for them. See who steals credit from others. There are many
characters that seem like decent people but will claim one of Amastura's
miracles as their own.

FEMME FATALE: The "deadly woman". There are some powerful women characters
in the world of Okami. Some of them will use their charms to make you think
they are good but will turn around and use Amastura and Issun for their own
gain. Some characters start out seeming to be femme fatales but turn out to
be helpful to Amastura.

NATURE CONQUERING EVIL: When evil invades nature looses. Notice how the
trees die, or natural springs are dried up in the cursed area. Nature arises
when good conquers. The nature as good comes out in little things like how
Ammy grows plants in her wake. (Rayburn Odom submitted this theme)
