NOTE: A better method for this has been discovered: youtu.be/AZIVF9aGou0
Krino was messing around on stream last week and discovered it's possible to green-step on top of the Kabegami statue. He was able to get jumps from there but couldn't get enough height to get onto the plateau (the upper level). I decided to mess around with it myself this morning and, after roughly 30 minutes of attempts and tweaking, got it successfully.
Overall this is very finicky. Landing on the statue seems to require precise positioning and depends on Ammy's facing angle. From there, you have to get just the right sliding ground tackle and take a certain path through the air, since the invisible walls around the plateau are unusually tall.
In theory this should be possible without double jump, as I used a wall jump after the statue, and have landed on it with a wall jump before, but combining the two might be easier said than done. This might be a lot easier in NG+2017.
Unfortunately this is currently useless. There's nothing useful on the plateau itself (aside from a couple high-value treasures, which would not be worth grabbing even if you could get this first try), and getting to Kamui requires beating Oni Island to get Thunderstorm, which requires Catwalk to get onto Watcher's Cape in North Ryo. There's also a required use of Catwalk in Wawku Shrine, which we really have no leads on skipping in NG.
Still, progress!
