In the most recent translation of both Reimu and Marisa's scenarios Sanae is called a "wind priestess" not "wind charmer" (although her profile here still calls her that). She herself says she's "like a shrine maiden" and her relationship with the shrine's god is similar to one, but I suppose her (now translated) profile does say Wind Something for the occupation rather than shrine maiden. Maybe we should decide whether to go with "Charmer" or "Priestess" before someone makes a page for either one. -Redpanda

I'm responsible for both, and I think priestess is better. (I misread it the first time, and didn't properly correct it at the time since I'd been up for too long.) Her stated occupation is essentially a type of shinto priest (hafuri 祝) that apparently places her a rank below ZUN according to this page. --T. Solamarle 00:40, 19 August 2007 (PDT)


Why "Kotiya"? Not "Kochiya"?

We will write Japanese words in the Hepburn style, which is written better in this place. In this style, "Kochiya" is better. Why is the index Kotiya? I think it's better to fix this spelling in this article and the linkage in the category page. If it's valid, I will correct those points. --Masuo64 18:06, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Wand?

What is Sanae's wand supposed to be? I've never seen anything like it. Although I guess it could be a Gohei just like Reimu's, I've never seen one that had a straight, as opposed to zigzagging, paper Shide streamer. Theoretically you might be able to use anything for this purpose as long as it was blessed or dedicated in some way, but I doubt ZUN just made it up, since he seldom does that kind of thing. On a funnier note, the first time I saw her hold it up (before the spell card back), I thought it looked like a gun >_>. 71.246.250.130 17:03, 25 October 2008 (UTC)A Nameless Fairy
