High Gothic? Could you elaborate? I would be interesting to hear you out.

>But yeah I'm probably not qualified to say much with my understanding of the language.
True, it's almost like a slogan to the post. Sorry, I mean: it's great that you have enough confidence in your ability to do such research. But really, you're overcomplicating things with 郷.
Why are you searching for jiangshi talismans specifically? Why not お札 and 符箓? Like, pull it up on wikipedia, switch the language to japanese/chinese, look at the sources... Wouldn't that be more helpful?
>The talismans.... well I mean they seem to be ofuda styled as jianshi talisman(fulu). Since searching for jiangshi talisman gives results closer to that. No clue if the "rope lines" are just a Japanese thing since I haven't seen them in pictures of chinese fulu.
It's a thing on fulu - unless I'm somehow misunderstanding what you're referring to, but if you mean, in layman's terms, that twisty thang, it's present in both.
>They all seem to have the "rope" (梱仙縄(?)) but the kanji part seems to differ:
Maybe they indeed are different, but I highly doubt there is a point in making them different and then covering up the parts that differ.
>The first character to me looks more like something with an horizontal line on top covering most of the kanji and with two drops like in 凍.... But idk the other part of the kanji seems to be like a toori or a 円. Other kanji I found kinda similar are 浦 and 満 but they don't seem to really fit.
Uuhhhhh well here I've mirrored it 'cause the writing is probably mirrored. I don't really agree with your take, I don't see that at all. I don't have better answers than the aforementioned Kanagawa though
>And I'm at a loss with the center one... still looks like う to me.
I can see why someone could think that, and I did say that the stone might have kana on it, but it's extremely unlikely that any character here is. It's clearly at least three strokes, it's more apparent when mirrored. う does not get written this way.
>(or idk maybe some Japanese ofuda are also yellow-red)
Yes, some indeed are. They get drawn this way somewhat often. Though, crucially, this is japanese shrine maiden, so what she has is probably ofuda. I thought that you had some sort of other reason for assuming they're fulu, but if it's just the colour for you, well, they're ofuda.
