Shin Megami Tensei V daily demon vol. 122 – Take-Minakata

The latest demon trailer for Shin Megami Tensei V has now come in, which gives fans a proper look at the creature known as Take-Minakata. It has long been present in the series as it first appeared in the very first Shin Megami Tensei many years ago.

Over on the Megami Tensei Wiki, the site shares some background information about Yurlungur. Continue on below for the bio.

Take-Minakata-no-kami, is one of the sons of Okuninushi. When the Amatsu decided to increase their influence on the earth, they sent Take-Mikazuchi to conquer Take-Minakata. They had the first sumo match which Take-Mikazuchi won. Take-Minakata then had his arms cut and fled to Suwa, where he married a Suwa goddess, Yasakatome, and became the guardian god. The local legend believed the cracking phenomenon on the icy Lake Suwa in every winter to be the “Passage of God” (Omiwatari, scientifically the result of pressure ridge). Take-Minakata leaves his temple via the frozen lake to the opposite bank to meet the goddess.

We have the new Shin Megami Tensei V video that highlights Take-Minakata below.

Shin Megami Tensei V will be available for Switch on November 12. We’ve been collecting the previous demon trailers here.
