interesting tagging question/philosophical debate for the crowd.

so, the little cat-shaped paper talisman at the top left is described by sanae as "containing" Chen, right? Presumably, it's the talismans or one of the talismans that contains the shikigami part of what we know as chen.

So...

I feel like that's probably worthy of a tag, but an object tag? a character tag? is one of those papers being there enough to tag chen herself? if it's an object tag, do we label it something like "Shikigami Talisman (Chen)"?

My gut feeling is probably an object tag called "Shikigami Talisman (Chen)"

Making-of: rough sketch, flat color, rough shading (archived: rough sketch, flat color, rough shading)

Probably should with how common it's been without Chen actually in the image. There's already things like chen_(cat) and all the different versions of Chen for Lost Word. Something like chen_(talisman) or chen_(shikigami_talisman) should probably be a thing at this point.
