Jinkou-kishou-jikken (a Touhou LW original) refers to experiments that artificially engineer meteorological phenomena. This is an apt temperament for the divine spirit, who appeared to answer the fervent prayers of the human spirits. Dwellers of the Animal Realm seem to lack the three Essences because this chaotic realm is far from Heaven. Keiki is endowed with Fire Phase, the element that hardens and processes earth, and Earth Phase, as a sculptor god. The formless and passionate Fire Phase resists Wood Phase, because wood feeds fire, but it is weak to Water Phase, because water dampens fire. The encompassing and regenerative Earth Phase resists Fire Phase, because fire produces earth, but it is weak to Wood Phase, because wood parts earth. The combination of Fire Phase and Earth Phase cancels out any resistance or weakness to Wood Phase.

Keiki Haniyasushin's ability as a sculptor god. According to a certain magician, this ability is "virtually the same as being able to create gods." In order to understand the concept of idols, one must first understand the concept of faith in a god. Ancient gods all over the world are often defined as something that cannot be seen. This is an expression of their holiness. Even in Japan, it took a long time for any of the gods to be depicted in a definitive form, and this only happened to a few of them. The concept of idols is integral to how gods came to be drawn and sculpted in such forms. This is similar to how the domains of a god become fixed when they are given a name. The concept of icons is also involved in the process of turning a god that cannot be seen into an idol. An icon is a terminal through which people can worship a god. Just like how there are no people speaking within telephones, and there are no actors within TVs, icons are not the gods themselves. However, terminals are still effective tools for people to experience a feeling of closeness to other beings. It is called idolatry or idol worship when an object that was created to function as an idol is instead worshiped as the god itself. Statues that were originally created for the purpose of being worshipped are also called idols. From the perspective of religious organizations that have clear and distinct centralized beliefs, idolatry is an act that deviates from the true faith. However, for decentralized beliefs that value diversity of faith over any distinct teachings, idolatry is another accepted practice of faith. Gods are in the details. When human spirits exult in the accomplishments of Mayumi and the other haniwa (the idols), the divine spirit who hides behind the scenes can satisfy her need for faith. This is her cult. Her project.
