The Arakawa River originates from Mt. Kobu Shindake, leads to Mount Chichibu, passes through the basin, passes through the Nagato Valley, and goes northward taking Osato County and Yorii Town into the Kanto Plain.
The downstream direction turns southeast at Kumagaya and flows into the Ma River in Kawagoe City. After passing Saitama, it flows east again, exits the Sumida River, and finally enters Edo Bay.
For thousands of years, the Arakawa has been flowing continuously, and the water and soil that nourish the place it flows through have never dried up.
But there is also a saying that the Arakawa River was almost exhausted several times, and it was all saved by the magic of the great demon master who lived in the Arakawa River - the Lord of the Arakawa River.
According to folklore, the Lord of Arakawa is violent and hot-tempered.
Therefore, although the water in Arakawa is fierce, the monsters in the water do not dare to cause trouble easily.
People who live on the banks of the Arakawa River regard it as a god and pray for blessings.
However, the Lord of Arakawa has always acted based on his preference and has not taken these offerings into consideration. He only gives convenience to those who implement water conservancy.
"I am the lord of the Arakawa River. I only control this land and water with my heart, and I have no other intention to care for others. He who works alone on water conservancy is good."
