Tōno is a real city in Iwate Prefecture in Japan. It is most famous for the Tōno Monogatari (1910), a collection of folklore stories compiled by Kunio Yanagita, the father of Japanese folklore.
- Miku mentions to Rei that the dolls depicted in the photograph accompanying the Skewered Dolls note are similar to the legends of the "Straw Dolls" passed on in Tōno. The Doll Altars in the Manor of Sleep were inspired by a house Shibata and Kikuchi visited in Tōno, where they saw a room with its walls covered in oshira-sama dolls.[1]
