	Reason: Akira route version info needed

On Yumi and Reiko's route, the Hinokagutsuchi can be found in the World of Envy. When entering the room it is in, the sword itself speaks to the Protagonist and says if they can pull it out of the pedestal, its power will be theirs. If the Protagonist either has no Guardian, or if their Guardian is one of the three strongest Guardians they can get, they will be able to pull out the Hinokagutsuchi and equip it. If they do not have either of these requirements fulfilled, they will be unable to obtain the Hinokagutsuchi.

Majin Tensei: Blind Thinker

The Hinokagatsuchi can be found inside a chest at the bottom right of Scenario 9.
