Visiting Kusabira Shrine

[概要]日神（ひかみ）神宮宮司である香さんが、偶然菌（くさびら）神社を訪れて、本殿に向かって橋を渡って振り返り、ポーズするシーン。 [菌（くさびら）神社] 滋賀県栗東市中沢1-11-15　鎮座 舒明天皇九年（637年）に勧請したと伝わる古社。 菌（くさびら）とはキノコの古い表現で、大昔飢饉に苦しんでいた人々が神さまにお祈りしたところ、一夜にしてキノコが生え村人を飢えから救ったと伝えられ、最近では「日本で唯一キノコの神さまを祀る珍しい神社」としてネットで評判になり、また健康志向の昂まりからキノコが健康食品としても見直され遠くからのお詣りが増えています。 御祭神：大斗能地神（オオトノジノカミ） 　　　　大斗乃辨神（オオトノべノカミ） #Image1 は参道からの遠景、ここから進むと#Image2で示した朱塗りの参宮橋があり、#Image3 の四脚門が見える。四脚門の先にあるのが#Image4 の拝殿と奥にある本殿である。 [Kaori] She is currently 21 years old. She has straight, waist-length black hair with a fine, glossy texture and neatly trimmed bangs. Standing 168cm tall with measurements of B83/W50/H85, she possesses a slender physique that rivals that of Hollywood actresses. She wears triangular stainless-steel wire earrings that sway gently, and her natural makeup is accented by deep crimson lipstick. She serves as a Kannagi(巫) (shrine maiden/medium) to Himiko (日御子/(Yamato-toto-hi-momoso-hime/倭迹迹日百襲姫))—the principal deity of Hikami Shrine—and simultaneously acts as the de facto ruler of Hikami City. Possessing exceptional spiritual medium abilities, she would later go on to serve as the Kannagi(巫) for Cleopatra as well. Her talents were recognized by the Imperial Court; by imperial decree, she came to serve as the Kannagi(巫) for the Imperial Ancestral Deity Amaterasu Omikami(天照大神), as well as for the goddesses Ichikishima-hime(市杵島姫) and Konohana-sakuya-hime(木花咲耶姫). Through these roles, she is known as "Summa Sacerdos Kaori" (High Priestess Kaori/最高位神官香), serving five goddesses associated with the Imperial Family. In the past, she distinguished herself as an ace cyclist representing her prefecture in the Inter-High School Championships (road racing). Her swordsmanship is underpinned by the divine wisdom she channels, transcending human limits to the point where even world-class master swordsmen are no match for her. Possessing exceptional marksmanship skills—capable of reliably hitting the heart of a target 800 meters away with the M-24 SWS—this individual commands such respect that even U.S. Army instructors are awestruck. [Dress Uniform] This sleeveless dress is crafted from a smooth, breathable, and lightweight silk twill. It features a tight silhouette that falls to the upper thigh and requires no lining or undergarments. While the back offers high coverage, the front features a narrow, deep square neckline with wide, supportive straps that beautifully accentuate the décolletage. Princess-line paneling—extending from the shoulders through the bust and waist to the hem—ensures a snug fit against the body. The side seams have been replaced by two-way zippers running continuously from just below the armpits to the hem. Each zipper is equipped with two sliders: the upper slider positioned at the armpit and the lower one at the starting point of the side slit. The zippers are made of fine-gauge dark navy nylon coil, featuring small, polished chrome pull tabs. Designed with a focus on functionality rather than mere decoration, they do not wrap around onto the front or back panels. Placing them precisely at the side edges offers several advantages: - The absence of zippers on the front or back panels maintains a clean, minimalist aesthetic. - Partially unzipping from the hem creates slits on both sides, allowing for a smooth stride despite the pencil skirt silhouette; opening them wide creates an active look, while opening them slightly offers a more modest impression. - Even when unzipped deeply, the thighs remain largely concealed from the front and back—where eyes are most naturally drawn—preserving an elegant gait. - Unlike a single-sided slit, the symmetrical zipper opening ensures the skirt maintains its balance while walking, preventing it from shifting or losing its shape. [Undergarments] Made of white chiffon. To maintain the décolletage, there is no bodice. It consists only of long sleeves (with cuffs) and a collar, adorned with a deep red ribbon. Since no additional undergarments are required, there is no risk of visible lines ruining the silhouette through the uniform. [Waist Belt] A belt crafted from the same fabric as the dress is worn over the outfit, creating a look of dignified propriety. It features a square chrome buckle at the center front. Belt loops are positioned on the front (left and right) and the back (at both left and right edges) of the bodice. [Footwear] The dark navy knee-high socks feature a small embroidered emblem on the outer upper section. The shoes are black loafers characterized by thin soles and heels (4 inches high with a half-inch diameter).
