==Description==
The Kaname stone is a boulder, about the size of a small child, with a smooth surface. It has a floral pattern, having pink flowers with yellow petals of varying sizes and small green spots spread across its surface, and a pair of teal spots surrounded by green discs are on one side of it.
==History==
In the past, a Giant Octopus utilized the stone to seal Tenaga-Ashinaga, and built a hokora to preserve the sealing. However, an estate developer broke the spell, resulting in a revival of the two yōkai. The two started plotting their revenge on the octopi, and started turning various different animals into half-octopi. Nezumi-Otoko used these animals for a show to make money.
Kitarō heard the situation from the octopi and knew that once the two yōkai held the stone, they would instantly be sealed again. But they were ambushed by Tenaga-Ashinaga and the many of friends were turned into half-octopi.
When Kitarō and Itan-Momen and Shisa were struggling to fulfill the mission, Nezumi-Otoko appeared to prevent the mission for his business and took the stone from Kitarō. However, Nezumi-Otoko did not know what he was holding and threw it to Tenaga-Ashinaga to provide a weapon to them. As the fight was going, Tenaga did not have a time to check and accidentally held it. It was too late however, as the stone glowed pink and the pair of yōkai instantly vanished with a smoke and dissolved into a pink fluid.
==Features==
Specialized Sealing: It has a powerful seal that is used specifically against Tenaga-Ashinaga. Once Tenaga holds the stone, the stone will glow pink and two will vanish in a puff of smoke and dissolve into a pink fluid.
