Sakuya is a spirit sword, which chose Yuki Nonaka as its wielder.
Description[]
Sakuya is a spirit sword that shares the same name as the goddess, Konohanasakuya-hime from Shintoism, as such, it gained a great deal of spiritual power over time due to their belief. The spirit sword chose Yuki due to her unwavering faith and compassion toward Basara Toujou even after the incident from six years ago. Due to their connection to Moun Fuji, the further the sword is from the mountain, the lower the strength of Sakuya will be, as such throughout the series, Sakuya hasn't displayed much of its original strength.
In the Demon Realm, she couldn't display much of its power, but the magicians opened a small portal that leads to the Human World letting her use its power.
In volume X, during her battle against Seiryu, Sakuya started to turn from silver, pink, and crimson displaying its full power, causing all the sakura trees around her to bloom, then displayed immense power that outmatched the Azure Dragon, one of the Four Gods.
