  • Thank you so much! I've literally spent a month or more trying to figure this out on my own, I finally gave up and came to internet. Thank you so much for making this video! I'm sure it's helped a lot more people than who just reposted you. Thank you so much dude. ^-^

  • fucking stupid bitch!! thanks a lot!!!! u rock!!! stupid wii controller

  • Seven seconds to spare! GOOD GOD, that was hard!! Thank you so much for the video! It was taking me forever to get through this stupid part.

  • The Wii is just super picky about drawings I think. This video helped me tons. You do rock ya know that right?  I only hadseven ink pots and it was a total drag but I got it.

  • @sunshineamine You're welcome. I'm surprised people are still using these videos.

  • thank you so much!!!! i couldnt finish this level and ragequited it... thank you so much again!!!!!

  • @XxHenkaChanxX You're welcome - glad it helped you out!

  • kaguya is sooo stupid in this minigame

    and worst part...she's young!

    i dont blame old ppl because they sometimes dont see where they are going. but kaguya...*shakes head* should have gone to specsavers

  • Can't see why so many people hate this... I mean it's not the most fun for me as well but it's not impossible and certainly not that frustrating. Not that hard to draw a galestorm at all...

  • omg this level drove me nuts

  • I did it without buying the "Golden Ink Pot" and it was so frustrating becuase I only had 8 Ink Pots xD It took me 6 or 7 attempts to finish it... It would have been so much easier if only Kaguya would actually fallow me! XD She keeps going to the wrong side and I keep running out of ink lol XD

  • I have literally spent 4 hours on this mini game telling myself I can do it because I was to fat to get up and search the internet. FREAKEN BROAD KAGUYA. She can go choke on some bamboo for all I care. I HATE THIS MINIGAME. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­!!!!! Oh yeah and THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU!!  wow I talk alot........ :<

  • @autumnloveschocobos Just so long as it helped you out. :)

  • I hate this minigame. The wind just doesn't blow the way I make my brush stroke.

    Ticks me off.

  • Wow. I had such a hard time with this particlar digging game! Thank you for making this video! :D

  • Golden Ink Pots are so useful :)

  • let's see... this took me at least... 1, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 tries before i beat it

  • I wish I could hire you too! This minigame just made me want to scream and pull my hair out! lol

  • not just me that struggles with the gestures then!

  • Argh! That stupid girl keeps walking towards the spikes! and the water won't go up every time I draw a line! Any tips? I need help.

  • that darn blondie took me 10 tries to no avail. I am so mad I almost summon firestorm on her!

  • Heh, part of me wishes I had found this vid sooner since it took me about a dozen tries. Could've got it in one try, but what's the fun in that, lol.

    For me, the path was fairly intuitive - I more had trouble with ink management. I wasted so much on redirecting the girl and misread techs, then I'd have to wait for the recharge while she inevitably ran into spikes.

    Also, just wanted to say, use the gale tech right as the girl lands in the bottom area to put her on the digging spot :)

  • It took me 2 days and 30+ tries to get past this monstrocity! Good gods I hate Okami's digging minigames! DX

    I sure hope there aren't any more xD

  • thank you!!!!!! it frustrated me for a whole week. i´m playing the game with my wii, and the controls are really tricky and sometimes so bad, you would like to throw up!

    but its worth it. okami is fantastic!

  • thanks so much, really helped.

  • Thank you!

  • This helped, thanks!

  • this helped thanmks@@

  • y did they put these in the game!? Zelda had nothing like this, and 4 good reason

  • THIS PART OF THE GAME. OMG THIS IS SO FU*KING ANNOYING.

  • Thanks for the vid! This minigame has frustrated me to no end. Idk if it's just me, or is it that the Wii version of this game is "picky" on how your drawings are. :/

  • @ToxicPanacea I've heard the Wii version is more picky for some reason? Could be just the controls being odd.

  • @ToxicPanacea Yep. I'm stuck on that one where Mr. Orange dances and stuff and make the flowers blossom. I keep drawing a circle, but it won't take it.

  • Comment removed

  • Actually , sorry for that random outburst. Just finished it, thank you for the very helpful tutorial. There's just something about this level that brings out the worst in me. . .

  • Ugh, this is so much harder to do on the Wii than the PS2!!! Am I the only one who can't jump up to the block at 1:41?? The game's physics just won't let me!

  • @AriClark93 i cant get up there either..how did u beat it? Im using wii

  • @Metasword24 I really don't know, after my 100 billionth try I jumped up to it by some chance and made damn sure I didn't have to do it again :P

  • @AriClark93

    i have the same damn problem

  • Wow, I didn't know you could powerslash them to make them go in the opposite direction!

    Thanks for this video!

  • I had been trying to finish this for such a long time before finding this video of yours. Thank you very much for uploading, it was really helpful (now I managed to finish the challenge)! You showed some good tips for saving time and alternative routes I hadn't even thought about.

  • I'll thank God for your Youtube contribution. This was really causing me trouble. God bless you RanmaFan for giving me the information needed to pass this part. I just got the Gold Pot, and I'm hoping this'll help me pass this asinine part of the game. Thanks again!

  • ARIGATOU

  • THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU GLORIOUS GAMER!!!!!!

  • I hate the water parts!!!! T-T

  • I never knew that the sun could make people go faster. Thanks!

  • This video was immensely helpful. Thank you~!

  • i HATE this part....SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!

    i did this 10 times yesterday...she is soo stupid!

  • thanks gooooooooooooooooooooooooood X_X i was going to crush my ps2 yesterday xD

  • This part frustrates me so much. I rented Okami, got to this part, and... Got very, very angry and frustrated. To the point where I just stopped playing. Then later, I bought it, played through AGAIN... And got to this point. And got angry and frustrated AGAIN. You, good sir, are my hero. I'm going to attempt this again and hopefully beat it.

  • another grateful okami player thanking you for this. the thing that never seems to work for me is the damned gale brushstroke, sometimes i was doing it and the wind would go the opposite way! it's really tedious mini-quests like this and some of the ones in zelda that turn an otherwise fabulous game into maddening frustration!

  • gosh i wish i can hire you to came to my house and finish this level for me

  • @blackdog39 LOL depends on where you live. ;)

  • @theranmafan lol im sorry i can't hire you, just seconds ago I finally Passed this level!!! Thank you so much for the vid.

  • All the "digging" levels should just BURN!!1 ugh

  • I attempted this horrible minigame about 20 times before stumbling across this video. I mostly had trouble with the Water Sprout. Your tip on that saved me from more frustration! You are my hero. :D

  • SOOOOOOOOO helpful. Thank god for this.

  • @DarkAngelForsaken I'm not God, but I'll pass on your thanks. =)

  • This was very informative, and a great step by step. My issue was the fucking water spouts! I could make Kaguya soar on the damn thing, but I was always left behind. SO, with a little trickery, I skipped the first spout entirely by merely jumping ahead to the rock where the spout would have put me, and used the galestorm to whoosh her across. Saved time. For the second one, I made sure she fell in, shot her bitch ass up, then double wall jumped up my own. Hope this helps for the handicapped.

  • I hate this. I can do everything else BUT this. Ugh. I only have about half the ink pots you do, so I think I'll just save up enough demon fangs for the Golden Inkpot. ><

    I literally haven't played this for six months to avoid this minigame. I get past the first waterspout with a 1:30 left and then she wastes all my time running into EVERY spiky thing. I really hate her.

  • i'm at this part on my wii okami and i had such a hard time, i really wish they didn't have time limits(i never really liked time limits on games xD) but maybe this'll help me

  • I wish I knew about slashing the rock, kept using the bomb. Oh well, they were still fun. :B

  • How are you doing this?! I'm on the first game and I keep trying to get through this and follow everything but I keep running out of ink and time! How are you getting this through so fast and so easily and so calmly?! It's annoying! Are you doing this on the Wii or PS2?

  • @DarkAngelLight90 I did this on the PS2. I believe this can be done without the Golden Ink pot, but you still need to have upgraded your ink.

  • You kick so much ass for these dude. The walkthrough I'm using references you and I can definitely see why.

  • Thanks a lot for this one! I got so pissed of with it that I didn't even play the game for weeks, totally lost my interest on it. But now I could pass it and I'm on it again! ~

  • @Kowaku You're welcome. =)

  • Thanks for the video :)

    This game is simply broken on the Wii. I wonder, who thoght, these mini-games would be a good idea. I mean,did no one actually test this game? It's like using spinach as the icing on a cake. It just spoils everything.

  • @HiPhish Unfortunately true. Maybe they thought brushstrokes were easier on the Wii.

  • thank you so much! this level was getting me so mad! i couldnt have done it wthout this video!

  • @crossbonesandaisies1 Glad it made the game better for you. =)

  • i cant believe this level held up the whole game. i dont know why these infuriating levels exist!

    o and, um thank you!

    :)

  • @misosaltee You're welcome. =)

  • @misosaltee I am playing it on a wii and it has nearly wrecked my right wrist. I still run out of time. It must be so much easier on the playstation 3. I have had to stop the game because I can't proceed any further.

  • Inkfinity stone is also a good strategy for those who don't have a lot of ink pots/golden ink pot.

    On a new game with 7 ink pots, I managed to finish this challenge with almost 3 minutes on the timer. New game+ & the holy artifacts make everything easier of course :)

  • This part is completely impossible for me on WII. %90 of the time i do the water spout or gale storm, they simply do not work no matter how consistently or accuratly I draw them. This part is completely broken on Wii and is only passable with a ton of luck and patience.

  • I know! Its busting my balls! I'm totally stuck on this part of the game.

  • Stupid digging levels. Thanks for the help.

  • Why did they put these levels in the game?!?!?!

  • Awesome! Thank you!

  • this one irritates me to no end...

  • Thanks for the video. I completely forget I had a brush technique for water. You rock :)

  • you are the best! couldn't have done it without this vid! ^^

  • THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

  • I am so fed up with this minigame.XD

  • "Maybe a Spoiler"

    if you gather all 100 beads you will get infinite ink and health and all your weapons do 10X the damage of what the'd normally due

  • Yes... this is for those on their 1st playthrough though. :)

  • Urgh this is so hard I'm having real trouble with it (Yes I am really bad at games)

  • Again, thank you, these videos seriously help a lot. But what the hell was up with the part that came right after this bit? I do not remember any sort of alien contact in my japanese mythology classes.

  • she was probably one of the moon tribes o-o but then again, thats just my guess lol

  • True but then to get to 'heaven' at the end you end up fighting in a spaceship of sorts, so perhaps when they were making this game they decided to futurise it abit un.

  • It's from Taketori Monogatari.

  • thanks a lot!

  • Man why didn't you use Gale at 1:28 it was easier and by the way Wii and PS2 Okami are the same xD.I completed the game only 1 time =.=.

  • Oh yeah. Haha. It just struck me now...

  • But its okay haha nice video

    :D-thumbs up-

  • Thanks man, this helped.

    lol at all the circles at the end

  • Yeah for some reason the game farted and refused to accept them. I got pissed at the end. >>

  • Gah. It has everything I figured out for myself except how to fix the glitch on mine where the wind ALWAYS blows RIGHT. It just won't go left. -_- No matter how I draw it.

  • I had the same problem. What version do you have PS2 or Wii? Mine was wii. It took me an hour and a half because of these, either that or the power slashes woldn't work the first time.

  • Dude the thing is that Wii is complicated and it won't work try practicing in making perfects line but it's easy for meh xD.

  • The digging mini-game in Okami conflicts with my philosophy that a game should be fun and relaxing. This mini-game is neither. It's stressfull. Don't get me wrong. I love Okami. I hope to see a sequel, but preferrably one without the digging games. Okami stands perfectly on it's own without mini-games.

  • I completely agree. Took the words right out of my mouth, dude.

  • I hate the waterspout!!! I was doing this the right way the first time and the waterspout doesn't get her up there for some reason Augh!! ........guess I"ll keep trying.

  • The key to the waterspout is to draw just a tiny line from the water (blue smoke) upwards. That's all you need to get it to work.

  • I hate this thing so fucking much. thanks for posting this!

  • I. Love. You. This. Game. Is. Hell. Even. On. PS2. Took 5 tries till i thought "Screw this game" then i found this post. I hate the digging game.

  • Share this video with others then. =)

  • Why is this bloody mini-game necessary to continue? Its virtually impossible on the wii. I have spent days trying and I have now given up. Its a real shame as I loved this game but....aaaaaargh

  • Whoohoo....done it finally.

    1. Don't bother with slice, down, left, down to get the time bud. Go slice, down, down. right. down , down....left to get across towards the waterspout at 1.27 in the video above. DO NOT break the block above the waterspout.

  • ...Jump onto the black block second from the left, break the sandy block and then blow Kaguya across- missing out the bloody waterspout altogether. The rest of the game is as it is in the video above. The remaining waterspout is still a pain but if you stand to the left of it , on the same level as it, this seems to help. You can also use the Z key trick to make sure that the line you draw is straight and not all wobbly. Don't forget to help Kaguya dig at the end. You should have about 20 secs.

  • Quick question:

    How were you able to get nine to ten ink thingies?!

    I just got to this point in the game and I only have six ink thingies!

    Is there some other way to get ink thingies besides praise?

    PLEASE TELL ME!

  • You should be able to have a bigger number of them after completing the game and starting again. You get to keep the ink pots you had in your last file.

  • The game gives me a new life after finishing it? AWESOME!

  • Well ,sort of. It's a New Game + and you get to keep nearly all your items and weapons :D

  • You can do the entire digging game without the golden ink pot, but you NEED to upgrade your ink capacity whenever possible with the praise you collect.

  • YES! YES! YES!

  • thank you :)

  • THANK YOU! This part of the game has been a waking nightmare, so glad I found your post...Hope you have a great day!

  • Hey man, thank you SO MUCH for posting this! I absolutely HATE this puzzle. I just couldn't do it! Ran out of ink, ran out of time...but the waterspout parts are the worst! They never come up when I draw them, and when they do, she just falls back down! ARRRGH. But thanks to your video, I finally beat it! THANK YOU KIND SIR

  • i got so pissed when she was on the watersprout she kept falling back down!!!!! but its all good now haha

  • those damn water spouts wont work on the wii version making this easy minigame inposably difficut

  • Just a tiny line upwards from the water (make sure you get the blue smoke first) will do. Nothing long or fancy.

  • Thanks for the guide. These lousy digging games are a bigger pain in the butt than Mega Man disappearing block puzzles.

  • Digging games, I think, are CRAP anyway cos they're just so damn frustrating to beat! But when you add the fact that I was expecting more development on the Kaguya plotline, it REALLY pissed me off to find that there was nothing more to 'helping' her than that damn digging game! After a while that music also makes you wanna cry in exasperation.

    Did I mention I LOVE Okami :)

  • Yessssssss

    thank you<33

  • yeahhh i did it ^_^ took 2 tries, did it w/ the wii remote too. TYVM

  • dude! how do you get her to jump when she's on the water spout thing.

    on mine she just squirms.

  • Man, this puzzle sucks!

    How do you get your ink being restored so fast! I always run out of ink at crucial moments...

  • Golden ink pot. A treasure item from the Emperor. Buy it with demon fangs. It's doable without, but you need a lot of pots.

  • Arg I havent played Okami in 3 months thanks to this puzzle *hates it*

  • Gah my sister has tried this minigame so many times and just when we think she's making good time, the wind blows Kaguya the wrong way and then we end up running out of time cuz that eats up like 20 seconds.

  • I really hate these digging games. Your videos are so helpful for them. Thanks!

  • I can't do this level. For some reason when I try drawing (wii version) the paintbrush flashes back and forth and if a try drawing it'll stutter and make these long lines. If I make the water thing perfectly it never goes up, and same goes for the wind. I'm constantly running low on ink too.

  • This one so difficult.. Less time and she walks into the spikes too much

  • Thank you so much for doing this! I couldn't have beaten it without this video.

  • dsajflkejwalkfa.

    THIS LEVEL MADE ME SO ANGRY.

    I CAN'T IMAGINE IT ON THE WII.

  • It took me about 1 try to beat this level....

  • Oh yeah! Plus, I have the Wii version! The Wii is soooo easy to use! Patience is the key, and not throwing the wiimotes across the room..... (xXDeadlySynnerXx) Don't matter tho....I almost broke a window with one of mine ^.^' heh heh.....

  • Yes much harder on the Wii. Very frustrating.

  • This part is just plain stupid for the Wii. -_-

    I tried a few times and I just turned off the game and threw the wiimotes across the fucking room, I got so frustruated.

  • @xXDeadlySynnerXx I definitely just did that. Like moments ago.

  • i have the wii version and i swear to god this part is one of the most frustrating things i have ever played in a videogame ever!!!! other than that its an awesome game but this is really pissing me off!

  • Much much more difficult in wii version!!!

    just completed this part of the game, after 10 - 15 tries....

    very difficult to use the spring waterfall in gaps of water

    anyway, awesome game!!!

  • At the first spring fountain, instead of going down and into the fountain, try to make her pass over with the wind brush technique, its shorter. You dont need to use the first fountain at all

  • THANKS!~ :DD

  • Man, this is a lot harder for the Wii...

  • Thanks for that! I was managing to get right down to the bottom, but didn't realise you had to dig on the spot she stood at!!! Thank god it's done now - the most irritating section of the entire game.

  • Oh my gosh, you are my savior! Thanks for saving me many headaches :)

  • Dear God, this game made me hate Kaguya, in between the noises she would make when she walked into spiked walls an' her plodding friggin gait. I was doing a goddamn jig when the bitch finally flew off into the great unknown.

  • Gah, this video at least told me that I was going in the right direction the whole time. Too bad the Wii controls hurt so much when it comes to drawing wind. (Drawing the lateral loop both directions makes Kaguya go the wrong way, WTF.) Damn wind. *smashes wind with a hammer*

  • oi-freakin-vay, you have no idea how much this vid helped!!! This one and the one for the carpenter in Sei-an City. Thank you so much!!

  • 3 things:

    1. this really helped with this minigame

    2. why is there a time limit on these minigames?

    3. The controls for wii make this game FREAKING IMPOSSIBLE!!

    Thanks though

  • 1. Glad it helped. ^_^

    2. The time limit's to increase the challenge. =P

    3. Yeah, I guess it takes practice.

  • OMFG!!! THANK YOU!!!!! i tried like 15 times and almost smashed my wii!!!! the reason i kept failing is because i kept trying to bomb the slash rocks and it wouldnt let me bomb half the time lol

  • O MY FREAKIN GOSH!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! i've tried again and again to do that and everytime i bout near throw my wii out the window in frustration.... so on behalf of me and my poor abused wii....THANK YOU!!!!!

  • Poor abused wii xD LOL

    So, i hear Okami is very difficult on wii? I use PS2, So its way different than wii. BUT YES i play wii every day haha just not Okami cause I like the ps2 version better. But it would be awesome when you use your Celestial brush cause it's just like painting with a real brush right?

  • hehe! yeah i don't know how it is on PS2 but on the Wii it is so freakin hard. and the drawing can get annoying cause if you don't do it EXACTLY right it will mess up. i yell at that thing so much it aint even funny....

  • Lol so im glad i stayed with PS2. :D

    For ps2 you just hold R1 and move the analog stick, which is really easy. And, its a little slower than the wii to draw, but it works a hell of a lot better. n_n

  • LUCKY!!!!

  • lol how far are you in the game?

  • i'm at the part where you have to race Tobi...i'm stuck at the part where you jump over the saws.... Y.Y

  • Stuck? Well all you have to do is run around before you press the button to start it, so that you run as fast as you can(when you see yellow grass) then RIGHT as the moment you touch the button to start the race, use the PAUSE move, and keep using it when you think he's catching up to you. :D

  • *tilts head* huh....i shall try that later... hehe! if it works you will officially be my new bestest buddy! XD

  • Lol anytime :D

  • ^-^ i'm gonna try it later tonight or tomorrow.... (i'm busy...school is about to start again... Y.Y)

  • Do yuo have to do homework? Man i hate school! Its only like... a few weeks OMFG it IS almost here D:

  • i will...cuase my biology teacher is crazy and evil.... DUDE MY 1ST DAY BACK AT SCHOOL IS THIS FRIDAY!!!!!!!!

  • WHY SO EARLY?! Thats crazy! Lol i feel bad for you... are you in highschool?

  • yeah 10th grade

  • Thought so, they usually start earlier than junior high. Me, 8th grade XD

  • nope...our school starts all at the same time. elementary, junior high, and high school. today was our first day back AND I ALREADY HAVE HOMEWORK!!!! Y.Y

  • Oooh you probably have waaay different schooling schedules from me, thats why ^^;

  • probably... *shrug*

  • Thank you so much it was so hard for me :p

  • Glad you liked it. :)

  • The geyser controls suck, period. I'm doing this for the PS2, it's my fourth run, and on my last one I spent at least a minute and a half trying to get the geyser to work with no luck at all.

    *bitter*

  • To get a geyser to work you just have to draw a very VERY short line upwards from the water once the blue smoke appears. Doesn't have to be very long.

  • the wii controls suck, espescially for the gysers. that's the reason I keep ****ing up at this stupid game
