Spoiler for Volume 6:

The monk was once alive on earth when he sealed the monkey king a couple centuries ago.

Susanoo should be quite rare as a Heretic God who retired rather than be slain.

hmm

Spoiler:

@ the princess:

Spoiler:

The early Miko was an important social figure[citation needed] who was “associated with the ruling class.”[citation needed] “In addition to her ritual performances of ecstatic trance,” writes Kuly, “[the Miko] performed a variety of religious and political functions.”[20] One traditional school of Miko, Kuly adds, “claimed to descend from the Goddess Uzume.”[21]

it doesn't say anything about snakes though

@ the monk

Spoiler:

"The monk was once alive on earth when he sealed the monkey king a couple centuries ago."
Since Monkey King is Sun Wukong

and then see

AKA: Buddha I'd think from this o..O

EDIT: on another note, looking at bakatsuki

what happened between Vol 10 and 11 really anyways, why does it go back in time or whatever again ._ .
