Yeah, Sakura's on par with him with the amount of mana they've gain, and growing seemingly more but yeah, she's pretty much is, since the moment princess Athena encountered them both and Hesti after the teleport by Dia even shown it too
Exactly, lol. As I recall, there's a pub/inn in the UK that's been in constant business for 600-some-odd years and has never had a rebuild, only some maintenance.

No, "Japanese carpentry" is a style of carpentry. Not talking about the variance in actual carpentry and trying to say that the Japanese peoples that are carpenters are universally excellent and surpass others, only that the techniques they used and still use today (though far less than they did before because such work is expensive and there are few remaining traditional carpenters following that style of carpentry) are excellent techniques, and far surpass current modern techniques in terms of stability and quality, which were sacrificed in the name of cheapness and speed.
Forgot to add the caveat about roman concrete since it was proven to be better than modern concrete due to some weird air bubble shit
