Kagami Galaxy

The Kagami Galaxy is the galaxy in the SARPiverse where the events and plots of the Star Army RP take place. The name β€œKagami” (written 鏑 in Yamataigo) means β€œmirror” and is a reference to the Yata no Kagami.

Kagami Galaxy viewed from above

The Kagami Galaxy is a large, relatively flat barred spiral galaxy with nine tight yet distinct arms. It could be described as a grand design spiral galaxy. The Kagami Galaxy has a diameter of about 1,550,000 LY and a thickness of about 2,500 LY.

It's important to note that the Kagami Galaxy is not the Milky Way, and therefore it is not the same galaxy that contains the Sol System (e.g. planet Earth).
