Damn. Not gonna lie but even though the story has been off the rail to the plot, which in opinion steered really well for it to evolve, I keep getting pulled into knowing more about the world and fate than Uryuu and his destiny. All I can say is this genuinely is superior than Quintessential Quintuplets.
Also, I notice Yomiko drawing a fox, a rabbit, a deer and a tortoise. I think this maybe a hint to the next god that reveal with her holding onto the rabbit mask. Kuragami is a deer. The fox-masked is the one always playing with Uryuu and now Yomiko has a rabbit mask. So I'm guessing her drawing a tortoise there could be hinting the next god to appear.
Kuragami
is the fox masked goddess though. She was the one that appeared when Shirahi made her wish, as well as the same goddess that granted all of the other girls' wishes and messed with their realities and sent Uryuu and Yae back in time, put Uryuu and Asahi in a Groundhog Day timeloop, and switched Uryuu and Yuna's bodies.
It's all been the same fox-masked goddess, Kuragami.
What's interesting is the Yomiko is a rabbit-masked goddess and her shrine is called the Tsukigami Shrine, "Tsuki" means "Moon" and there's a myth about rabbits living on the moon and why they pound mochi on new years.
Based on earlier chapters, the Amagami shrine looks like their shrine animal is the Koi fish, since they made charms with Koi on them for their shrine festival, and Yae made Asahi a stuffed Koi for her birthday.
My Japanese isn't fluent or good enough to figure it out but I'm pretty sure "Kuragami" means "Fox God/dess" or something similar, but aside from "Uo" and "Koi", I can't think of any other term for "fish" similar to "Ama" in "Amagami". But again, I'm not fluent and only know how to read Katakana and Hiragana, so I can't read Kanji for shit and speaking it would only make me sound worse than someone speaking Engrish lol
That being said, the only fish I can find that has "Ama" in its name is the "Amadai Tilefish", and that's a type of sea bream and nothing like a carp/koi lol
And based off the Kanji and Google Translate though, the "Ama" [甘] in "Amagami" [甘神] is the kanji for "Sweet", as in "Amai", so "Amagami" just means "Sweet God".
But now I'm wondering if that one animal in Yomiko's sketches is supposed to be a fish or something. Cause there's the obvious looking Fox, Bird, Deer, and Rabbit, but the fifth one looks less like a fish and more like a turtle, and I dunno if a deer, bird or fish/turtle is supposed to have any ties to the kanji "ama" [甘] or the word "sweet".
Anyway I'm just rambling lol
