The 2016 Kumamoto earthquake brought down its gate and worship hall. Every fallen piece was numbered, collected, and where usable returned to its original position; the gate was restored in 2023. Not rebuilt, but put back with the same timber. The idea of repairing rather than replacing, which this series keeps meeting, is happening here in the present tense.
