When A225402(k) = 0, i.e., k is a term of A352282, then a(k) > a(k+1); 1st example is for k = 17 with a(17) = 115138644385446477 > a(18) = 15138644385446477; otherwise, a(n) < a(n+1).
When n <> k, a(n) coincides with the 'backward concatenation' of A225402(n-1) up to A225402(0), where A225402 is the 10-adic integer x such that x^3 = -1/3 (see table in Example section); when n = k, a(k) must be calculated directly with the definition.
Without "exactly" in the name, terms a'(n) should be also: 1, 7, 77, 477, 6477, 46477, 446477, ..., first difference arrives for n = 17.
There are similar sequences when cubes end with 1, 7, 8 or 9.

a(0) = 1 because 1^3 = 1;
a(1) = 7 because 7^3 = 343;
a(2) = 77 because 77^3 = 456533;
a(3) = 477 because 477^3 = 108531333;
