Their names are [Fūtarō
(Fuutarou)](https://5hanayome.fandom.com/wiki/Fuutarou_Uesugi) and
[Raiha](https://5hanayome.fandom.com/wiki/Raiha_Uesugi). The gods are
[Fūjin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C5%ABjin) and
[Raijin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raijin). Is there some Japanese article
that possibly talks about this?
