message: The article implies that the Hidden religion represents Christianity, but it is not so. Outlined in the fourth book, foreigners appear (apparently from Spain or Portugal or similar) who appear to worship Christianity, which is described as remarkably similar to the Hidden faith, but not the same and with a few significant differences.
Granted, I've only read the first three books, but wouldn't that make the Hidden the Otori-verse 
equivalent of these people: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kakure_Kirishitan ?  And more specifically of the branches 
who did not return to mainstream Christian practices when persecution ceased? Derringdo 22:29, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: "Tomasu" is said to be the name of a great leader of the Hidden in times past - and because no foreigners came to the Three Countries before the fourth book, the Hidden are probably meant to be followers of St. Thomas of Aquinas, a disciple who was meant to have visited Japan in 54 AD. So, Christianity had been in the country for thousands of years, long before the Christians from Portugal visited. They had plenty of time to make differences. Bronzey 05:12, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thomas Aquinas was a medieval religious figure and not a missionary, the Thomas you're thinking of is more likely St. Thomas the Apostle (the doubting chap in the accounts of the Resurrection), described by certain legends as having been a missionary to India and points further east Derringdo 20:10, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I've just changed the last sentence of this synopsis that they said "Kotaro ends up dead after he cuts off Takeo's lower left hand."
 to "Kotaro ends up dead after he cuts off Takeo's lower right hand." :It was said that in the fourth book.
