Raigo. Raigo (雷 ( らい ) 迎 ( ごう ) , Raigō?, literally meaning "Thunder Greet"): One of Enel's strongest techniques, possible after Deathpiea has been invoked. Enel shapes a vast quantity of prior-made thunderclouds into one giant, dark sphere charged with inordinate electricity.

Understanding the Context

Such raigo paintings depict the scene in which Amida (Sanskrit: Amitabha) and his attendants descend from heaven to take a believer back to the Western Paradise on a lotus throne. The scrolls were often hung by the bedside of the dying to ensure the prospect of rebirth in paradise. Retrieved 2025-12-29. "Buddhist Art and Amida Raigo Triads".
