I read SSiB, but I don't quite remember all the details of that manga. So, contrasting what the wiki says, SSiB makes no mention of the earth rabbits being unaware of Ookuninushi's fate?

Here's the relevant chapter where they talk about Daikoku's fate. 12-16 is the Reisen section.

So Takeminekata is sealed in the Moriya Shrine as well?
I wonder what would happen if those two got unsealed? I bet a lot of fun would be had.
(The rabbits would definitely be happy, that's for sure.)

Yeah, I suppose so. It seems kind of crowded with so many deities being housed there, though. Kanako, Suwako, Takeminakata, Sanae and Mishaguji, if you want to count the last two. Although that chapter kind of says Kanako and Takeminakata are the same.

Kanako is really a strange, somewhat complicated mishmash of Takeminakata, the one who defeated him on behalf of the highest gods, Takemikazuchi, and the Suwa goddess Takeminakata married, Yasakatome. Thus, as the goddess who was already at Suwa, Suwako is basically in Yasakatome's role. Like I said, complicated, although I've seen fanstuffs that have tried to rectify everything.

And then we got the Mishaguji, who were there before everyone else.
Man, I bet if Takaminekata were unsealed, and the Mishaguji could do stuff outside of spellcards, the Moriya Shrine'd be one hell of a party place.
Wish I could go there, too bad it's all fictional...
(Outside of the regular festivals and banquets they have to further relations with worshippers and such that is.)

Looks like there is no mention of unawareness.
