Independent Thoughts & Solutions to Current Events. Looking Towards the Future.
Hey you! Did you know that it’s amazing that you’ve come this far in life, that you have an important purpose to fulfil and are loved? Did you know that there are complete strangers all over the world, who want you to live your life to the positive fullest, even though they’ve never met you?…
HEY AMMY!: Ōkami Fanart Gallery #11
Bow-Wow! Ōkami fanart that’s a lot like the Ōkami fanart paintings and drawings in “Ammy the Symbol” but for a younger audience – an audience that still hasn’t felt the urgency of acquiring wisdom, but instead seeks adventure and excitement. (Resulting in the “unintended side-effect” of wisdom.) These artworks show, and also invite the brashness…
January 2021 – The Road Ahead
The road ahead for this Ōkami fansite is clear – I will continue to update it with fresh Ōkami news and content throughout 2021. I also have strong suspicions that we’ll get some big news about an Ōkami sequel this year! The road ahead for mankind in 2021 is a little less clear of course,…
Happy Moments: Ōkami Fanart Gallery #10
What makes Ammy happy? Nature, beauty, friends, and simply life itself? Probably any of those things, but “borrowing” turnips may very well be all of those things at once! Think about it; turnips are grown in the soil and part of nature, because nature is beautiful then so are fresh turnips… It’s with friends (Issun)…
A Brief History of Ōkami
A Brief History of Ōkami It can be quite sensible to work towards discovering and being oneself in the crowd of the many – learning to stand out rather than conforming to the norm. However, separating too much can risk being ignored and less able to communicate. Perhaps reaching a near-perfect compromise, Ōkami has certainly…
Ōkami Games
A grand adventure with powerful enemies and the world’s beauty and life at stake, but also good friends, genuine fun and lighthearted moments and discoveries – full of lively characters, with always something to do for the enthusiastic players! While Ōkami does allow and encourage developing combat techniques depending on the…
Ōkami Characters
The Okami video game is deceptively big; almost as if Ōkami’s creators enjoyed lulling players into a sense of achievement when finally reaching the ending, only for them to realise the story hadn’t even fully begun yet. Saving the world isn’t a quick and easy job, after all. Such a…
Ōkami Artbook and Comics
With Okami being such an impressively artistic video game, created in a style reminiscent of classic Japanese watercolour paintings, it’s no surprise for the official art book to also be artistically rich – spanning 288 pages. Full of early concept drawings, paintings and artist’s notes, this artbook offers an impressive…
Ōkami Merchandise
Have you noticed how some TV shows and video games seem to mostly exist, as means of selling merchandise (or constant in-game “upgrades”)? Taking the slow but sure approach (rather than being “advertised to death”), Ōkami’s merchandise is not only desirable, but complements the video game rather than overshadowing it.…
Ōkami Soundtrack
The Ōkami Video Game Soundtrack The original award-winning soundtrack with its elegant blend of Japanese and Western style music, was released on five CDs in 2005, and in the meantime has been re-released on CD, digital download and even vinyl records. The beautiful packaging and bonuses with printed artwork included in each album, already make…
Japanese Mythology, Folklore and Ōkami
This video game makes it clear from the beginning, that its player will get to play as the wolf-incarnation of the Japanese sun goddess Amaterasu – the leader of all Japanese gods. Beyond the more obvious references to Japan’s Shinto kami (spirit/god) worship and mythology, what may be surprising is…
