Trivia

In Shintoism, kagura (神楽, lit. god entertainment) refers to ceremonial dances that involve purifying spirits and praying for good harvests.
A certain variation of kagura referred to as miko-kagura is performed by by mikos as a part of matsuri amongst other occasions and make use of special ritual props such as bells, bamboo canes, sprigs of sakaki, or paper streamers.
- The ritual dance performed by Rika Furude (who is a miko herself) at the Watanagashi Festival is likely based off of this tradition as it has many similarities.
