Finally back and have thoroughly read the OOC a few times. I did skim it while I was away but the connection (and time) was pretty crap so I decided to just wait so here I am now. I have a question regarding this bit: "The Kayaka River is known for turning brilliant hues of red and orange upon sunset, allowing it to turn almost entirely red at certain parts of the year. This has led to it being called the "Red" or "Bloody" river and as it often leads to Mount Kiroka some even believe it becomes an opening to Hell and releases spirits during those times of year. At its most brilliant, the reflection of the river can even cause the fog of Mount Kiroka to glow an ominous crimson color; making it one of the most beautiful and dread events of the year, so much that even school is canceled."

Maybe it's the wording or something but I'm not sure if the "timing" of the Bloody occurrence is specified. You mentioned it happens at sunset but wouldn't school be already out by nightfall? Or are you assuming it's a year-round school thing where they may be in class when the sun may set early? Or is that winter? I can never remember...anyway, I was just curious as to when it happens and if residents of the town do anything to "appease" any of the spirits which may be upset or haunting the area. I assume due to the location, it would be a nice place for demons or spirits to dwell and play tricks or cause trouble.

Another question was how people would die. I may be assuming here, but due to the school being a little rocky, would there be some sort of school shooting? An incident may be a binding pact for the group who need to come together and become Spirit Detectives. 

I have taken six years of Japanese, so if you ever do need help with geography or culture/lore, I'd be happy to help but if you want to keep things a bit fictional on the fly, that's cool as well. I assume we can use whatever format of CS we'd like. I should have time to get something together, probably a female character who is superstitious or one who the exact opposite, a woman of science and fact, who would probably balk at the idea of spirits and the afterlife. So either end of the spectrum is what I'm thinking, to make things less dull/predictable.
