High resolution artwork

From official PAD Instagram. Commentary by Kennori!

ISN’T SHE CUTE? Look at the kitties~ I wonder what flavor the tama chips are? (Egg, maybe?)

[show_avatar avatar_size=60 id=2 user_link=authorpage align=left display=show_nickname] About Amaterasu: I’m not an expert in Japanese history, mythology, or storytelling – Please correct me if I’m wrong on this. In Japanese mythology, Amaterasu was upset at Susano (there’s some rivalry there between the siblings), and hid in the heavenly rock cave. Since Amaterasu herself is the sun, the world becomes pitch dark, and no gods could convince her to come out of the cave. The Goddess of Happiness, Ame No Uzume, danced and tricked Amaterasu to come out, which restored light to the world. (and gods subsequently closed off the cave so that she can’t get back in, lol) So I guess we know what Amaterasu was doing in the cave… And this is probably why Ame no Uzume is in the art too.

Here are more fine details of the artwork pointed out from everyone’s comments below. Thank you everyone!

Amaterasu

You can also see little figurines of the Kotoamatsukami (Amenominakanushi and friends) in the background of the art, as well as the sword Kusanagi in a storage bin and the sacred mirror in a corner!

There apparently is debate on how Ame no Uzume got Amaterasu to exit the cave, most believed that she danced naked.
