FAQ [FAQ00]
===============================================================================

1. How do you get demon parts?

Reduce the enemy's HP to 0, then use the technique listed in [WEAP03.2].
Sometimes, you have to weaken the enemy first, but this is usually clear.

2. What are the lucky coins for?

Giving them to the blacksmith unlocks more weapon upgrades.

3. How do you upgrade weapons?

By giving lucky coins to the blacksmith at Yakushi Village. You also need
demon parts, dropped by enemies when you use a specific technique when
their HP is 0. See [WEAP03].

4. How do you get trinkets?

Finishing specific Issun masterpieces, and a sidequest. See [WEAP03.4].

5. What are the masterpieces for?

You get some items from it, like trinkets and consumable items. See [GDS05.2].

6. Are there upgrades to brush techniques?

Yes, see [INF09.1]. You need to invite some people to Yakushi. This also
unlocks some other items.

7. Why should I invite people to live in Yakushi Village?

Two main reasons, for praise and to unlock more upgrades to brush techniques.
Also, it is required for a lucky coin and also the trinket Lucky Cat
Paw.

8. What are the antiques/treasures for?

Money, and getting all of them will unlock a skin. [GDS05.1] for the list,
and [INF09.4] for the reward.

9. What are the history scrolls for?

Nothing. Just for reading.

10. What are the manifests for?

The manifests give you praise. They don't unlock anything.

11. Can you run around after the end?

No. New Game Plus starts you over at the beginning. So if you want to run
around you have to do it before the point of no return.

12. When is the point of no return?

It is directly after the ice room, and your partner will ask you if you
want to go into the Moon Cave. You can still buy the upgrades to brush
techniques after this from an imp, but you can't return to other areas.

13. What is with the crack in the side of a cliff in Yakushi Village?

You can bomb it, but you can't reach it. During the course of a sidequest,
a house will be built there so you can reach the area. See [SQ08.1].

14. Which areas/items are missable?

They are indicated throughout the guide by an asterisk.
Refer to my other guide for only the missables.

15. If I've already used Gen's machine, can I still go back to
previous areas?

Yes, eventually you'll reach a save point where you can warp.

16. What carries over to the New Game Plus?

See here: [INF09.4].

17. Is there any point to doing a New Game Plus?

Not really. Not unless you didn't unlock something during the first
playthrough, or if you want to use the stuff that's unlocked in the new game
plus.

===============================================================================
Introduction [INT01]
===============================================================================

This guide has been updated for the English version. If you just want the
missables, refer to my other guide. Spoilers for location names, the sequence
of events, and some plot.

Map locations are given as in the game, by area. For example, 1F:4 would be
the 1st floor, 4th area. Similarly, B1:4 would be the 1st floor basement,
fourth area. These maps are accessible by looking at the detailed map.
If I refer to a location, it's probably using the map.

Any corrections or additions can be emailed to [email protected],
with the subject line as "Okamiden FAQ". Or you can ask on the boards,
and I'll update this with corrections. If I somehow forgot to credit you,
tell me and I'll update it... eventually.

===============================================================================
Yakushi Village Migrants [YV02]
===============================================================================

These people or animals are scattered throughout the areas in Okamiden. You can
invite them to live in Yakushi Village. When finding them in Yakushi Village,
they might give you more praise. These are separated into the first time you

-----------------------
Demon drops [WEAP03.2]
-----------------------

These are used to upgrade weapons. Just like with the floral finishers in
Okami, reduce the enemy's HP to 0, then use the listed technique, unless
otherwise indicated. Be careful not to either hit it again yourself or
let your partner hit it after its HP is 0.

Notes: For elemental finishers like waterspout, you can finish it off
using that technique and then use it again to get the parts.

------------
Demon bones
------------

Red Imp (1) - Knock it out, Power slash the top to destroy it, and then
power slash it after HP is 0.
Bone Clam (1) - Bloom it when it's knocked out, then power slash it
when its HP is close to 0 to kill it.

Fire Eye (3) - Waterspout.
Blue Imp (2) - Power Slash.

------------
Demon skins
------------
Ice Lips (1) - Inferno.

when it starts circling you to knock it out. Then, hit it and
after its HP is 0, depending on which form it is at the time,
use the appropriate technique.
Spark Beast (2) - Galestorm

Easiest to get:
Demon bones - Fire Eye, especially with Splash.

entrance when you can actually go there.

----------------------------------
