He was fighting behind Tsutsui Jōmyō Meishu on the Uji bridge, but as the beams were so narrow he could not come alongside his ally.

- Ichirai was a monk who followed on the footsteps of the individual who had journeyed through one hundred and eighteen incarnations before meeting the Kenku and ascending to become the Fortune of Death, Emma-O. However each time the monk discovered a Kenku teacher it transformed into a crow and fled, and this happened one hundred and eighteen times. Ichirai crafted the mantle known as One Hundred and Eighteen Feathers with the single feather each transformed Kenku left behind upon they met the monk. He wore it while he meditated and prayed for one hundred and eighteen days, reached enlightenment, and flew into the sky as a crow. A peasant farmer retrieved the mantle, which had been left behind.
