==Historical Background==
The Yamata no Orochi (八岐の大蛇) or simply Orochi, can be translated as the Eight-Forked Serpent in English (lit. "8-branched giant snake"), is a legendary 8-headed and 8-tailed Japanese dragon that was slain by the Shinto storm god Susanoo. Orochi has many mythological parallels to the Greek Hydra.
