Friend, I felt it as a low blow. But I couldn't agree more on the difference in the smiles that Klein ends up having since his beginnings in the new world as a beyonder to the heavy smiles he has when he is close to divinity.
According to post #8707632, this isn't not the Warrior of Light, but Azem in the flesh. empetiit's Warrior of Light has a scar over her left eye, which Azem lacks. And also different eyes, and lacks the Elezen ears. Same thing for the post #8707677, who is also incorrectly tagged warrior of light (ff14). Do I need to repeat the comment there, or nay? I don't mind.
Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Not sure which version this artist is referring to, but most versions of ippon-datara dont eat people.(Makes me wonder why this day is considered unlucky.)

From what I could gather, the unluckiness of hate no hatsuka came first, and the relationship with ippon-datara came later (as a result of its relationship with the Hatenashi mountain range and the fact that there are no passers-by at this time of the year —to not be/to be missing → nakunaru; this na happens to be the same one as in Hatenashi).
It's true that the ippon-datara is often said not to harm humans, however this page does say they do eat the travellers that go through the mountains. Now, I have no clue where this page gets their info from, nor whether it happens to be accurate to any degree, but after translating Ohayoumu for a few months, it's clear to me that Youmu-kun mostly relies on that webpage (sometimes even copying their exact wording). And, by his own admission, he does not do his due diligence in his research.
Ipoon-datara legends vary between regions, and a few versions do eat people.(I actually considered clarifying that in my original comment but couldn't figure out how to word it correctly.) I was mostly criticizing the holiday rather than bashing the authors research credits.
