Okami gets a very strong image of the original sumie style
Type of
(Post Presses 2d filter or overlay containing paper texture)
Has a 2d paper overlay

Object fills
(Texture, uv or screen space? Bush Strokes in texture, Animated?)
Object fills uv, washy textures. Miniam visual noise
Solid drawing (Constrains, blend shapes, complex rigs, maintain 3d sillowete)

Yes objects are 3d with 2d filters, Trees are semi 3d which track to the camera.
Shading and Shadows
(Real time? Baked? Animated Shape? Masked shading/stencil)

Minimal, 1 plane with an shadow texture for the character.

For the sumie style this game is a little on the visually noisy side but it makes scene to add more detail for a game environment to guide the player.

overall score = 8 out of 8
