1: His nickname is 撲殺炎者(Bokusatsuenja) which literally translates as strike murder flame person.
2: Deva king statue
3: Taishakuten is the Buddhist equivalent of Indra.
4: Yuikuu says to ‘the salt’ which comes from the japanese saying ‘to give salt to your enemy’ and means to something like ‘show humanity to one’s enemy’. The phrase originates from a story from the sengoku period where Uesugi Kenshin sent salt to his enemy, Takeda Shingen, who was cut off from salt supplies.
5: Shimenawa are ropes made of straw or hemp used to consecrate areas or as a talisman against evil.
