The Disk Abalone is a species of abalone endemic to the coast of Morioh. These prized seashells have several characteristics. They can grow to weight several kilograms, have an extremely hard shell able to resist the impact of a car, have the octopus as their natural enemy, and are high-class ingredients whose production and sale is tightly controlled. As a result, the inhabitants of Morioh are rumored to have developed a poaching tradition around the seashells. One night every year, the disk abalones are disoriented by the gravitational conditions and begin to freely swim in the water.
It consists of several octopus tentacles in tomato sauce. It is not shown to cure anything particularly.

A small shrine set inside the hollow at the base of a yew tree. It is composed of a small round mirror on a platform. It is said that the yew tree is 800 years old and that the cavity beneath the tree is 500 years old. The shrine is connected to Yabubako-Hoshi, as anyone who is reflected in the mirror finds themselves replaced by Yabubako-Hoshi for three months, Yabukako-Hoshi causing mischief and trouble in the meantime. The cavity has been sealed because it regularly caused trouble in the past but curious visitors occasionally open the cavity and look at the mirror. There is a way to undo everything Yabubako-Hoshi commits and that is to turn the mirror 360° to the left without getting reflected. Stands count as one's true self and can be reflected in the mirror.
