What about Karasu Tengu?
Nice video
Any yokai that love freedom?
Was this narrated by George takei?
I believe the Kamaitachi is a wiesel; Sichel Wiesel translated.
I swear to god a witcher kinda game with Japanese mythology would be so amazing.
Nioh 2 have yokai
try playing onmiyoji arena and onmiyoji
So sekiro?
Every one like that
Nioh
Umibozu : do you fear me?
Fisherman : no
Umibozu : Understandable. Have a great day.

Yokai watch all
Anime all
I am a huge fan of Japanese Yokai. Something about them is just badass. Unlike most myths which are just "I eat people and I do the creepy thing", Yokai can be all sorts of things. They can be good, bad, and they are ALWAYS creepy. Not to mention how media portrays them. Tom Nook, the entire Persona series, a majority out of the 800+ Pokemon, ect. It's just amazing.
My fav yokai are the ones that can be both good and bad
If you love Yokai, you'll love Yokai Watch!
"Kama" means scythe or sickle, not wind. It's only said that kamaitachi rode the wind, or at least moved like it.
Not all bakeneko have two tails; that's called a nekomata, and has a wildly more intense set of powers and temperament.
The last picture you show during the Inugami breakdown is actually a Kasha, a cat yōkai.
Tsukumogami, what the Karakasa is, are common objects that reach sentience after they've existed for one hundred years, not ninety-nine.
There's no time period for Kirin. They appear in either times of great peace or great conflict to signify the coming of a drastic change and/or powerful leader.
Bro took it personal 2 years ago.
@@Ambuscade777 it's just for correction, it's fine
Onmyoji (the game) is reason why Im so interested in Japanese Mythology.
I'm not the only one that play the game yes!
Same hirr
Eek-Wall-E Tea same
Mine is Onimusha, Naruto, and Batusai
Fun fact, onmyoji is developed entirely by netease, which is a Chinese company
Karakasa-obake, the umbrella yokai is very similar to our native lore.
It has one leg and one eye and it would frighten people. But if any person were to catch one, it would grant everything that person could say under one breath. We call it pheichham in our region, its quite popular too.
I have always thought it weird that there was a similar tale in Japanese myths, when i first watched Spooky Kitarou, I told my mom about it and she was puzzled too.
Is it from the story of the two poor brothers?
I mean the origins of the Japanese Jomon people is in Siberia, the same place the native Americans are from. The similarity might stem from there. The story might have developed independently (considering an umbrella only has one "leg"). Or maybe the Japanese and the native Americans interacted during more modern time at some point.
"our native lore", where are you from?
@@phillip7731 we're Mongolian descent so being influenced by Siberia moreover, America is pretty minimal. Also, we were a socially cut off tribe, as most of our ancestors were headhunters, so even communicating with us could only happen until the world wars and most of our folklore was developed before that period.

I watched a movie called ,Yôkai daisensô 1968 (Yokai Monsters: Spook Warfare). That is all about Yokais, this video helped me to understand more about it, there are many Japanese films about Yokais, I will look for some more, I think they are interesting and very strange.
Can u recommend me some
@@FifaMaestroAdam Yōkai Monsters: Spook Warfare is a good one, as is the kinda-sorta loose remake The Great Yōkai War (both of them are called Yōkai Daisensō in Japanese, but the second was made in 2005), as is the film that came before them, Yōkai Hyaku Monogatari (often titled in English as Yōkai Monsters: 100 Monsters). There is also the manga series GeGeGe no Kitaro, the most recent anime adaptation of which I believe is still on Crunchyroll.
But not all Yokai, spirits, and demons all have to be evil, of we give them a chance and believe in them
0:44 my most favorite anime:nurarihyon no mago
I highly recommend it
Something special on that anime i watched it twice already both season.
Eyyyyy, you watched that too!
I rewatched and reread that show so many times now, and the concept of a nurarihyon yokai was interesting to me, a peaceful yokai who just parties.
Anyone watch ushio to toro
Actually Kamaitachi are weasels with scythes on their front paws, thus they're not skunks.
Correct!
I'm pretty sure that you hire George Taki to do your voiceovers.
I think that the Japanese anime Inuyasha was inspired by this myth
It was very heavily inspired by myths. Same for others like Naruto, Noragami, etc.
I agree 😊😊😊
Wow Sherlock
Yes. Even the snow woman amongst others made it into an episode
U mean yo-kai watch
The video game Nioh.Nioh 2 literally uses a giant portion of these Yokai in their game with info on their real life mythology and lore. They even kept the look you have displayed in your vid. I love monster mythology and appreciate this vid.
Good job.
Yes, I too came from Nioh and Nioh 2 :)
"Wind Weasels"?
Kama: Sickle
Itachi: Weasel
I was just going to point that out too.鎌鼬
Give him a break, he clearly put a lot of work into it, he even pronounced them pretty much alright so he can afford a little mistake
Itachi: Uchiha
Temari

This is an amazing video describing the Japanese mythology and lore.
Ahhh what a wonderful start for the day
With a video from this channel
It is literally amusing and a kick start
A wonderful, well- balanced and accurate introduction to the Japanese 妖怪 world! And I appreciate your choices of those beautiful artworks, both old and new.
that was amazing I never knew that stuff about Japanese mythology and it is wonderful
I fought most of these in Nioh.😁
@Born on 15 me how
Do you live
@@dovargorath2722 not everyone is as lucky as you bro
@Yengkhom sanahal Singh lol
But nioh isn’t that fun of a game...
@@OnSchoolyard i found nioh 2 more fun than dark souls 3
My favorite episode of Avatar: Last Airbender was always the one where he goes to the spirit forest and that creepy centipede thing is there. I love stuff like that.
me too but I think if you like that you should try Inuyasha if you haven't already lol
Amazing video .. where do u find such amazing art work?
Great research sir ..👌🏿
This is a great video I have always been interested in myths and I love your channel thank you for making these videos
I played Nioh in ps 4 and this video appear, now i can learn more about yokai the main enemies in Nioh game. Love japanese myth 😎.
Nice video 👍
Play Nioh2, they added the rest of the Yokai and new combat skills
@@neverEndingvoid525 i played already, in NG+ now
@@neverEndingvoid525 Tesso is creepy lol
Sonny Setia I die every time a kusarigama-wielding yokai shows up
Great timing as I just finished Nioh 2 the other day.
The art you have found for this video is just sublime
I know right?
omg your voice over is amazing
This is very interesting to me. As someone who watches a lot of anime, and dreams to one day become a mangaka it is nice to know the legends where some of the references in anime come from.
You should do better research, because it's very hard to become a mangaka. I would recommend the video "What it takes to be a mangaka". I know it's been 2 years, but still.
where did you get the art work for the shinigami pictures they are so cool!!!
Cool video, already knew a bunch of them. I always like the concept of Yuki-Onna, but never quite understood the part of 'intense pain and suffering' dying in a blizzard is not very painful. It will hurt for maybe a minute,then u won't feel anything, all energy is drained from the cold and u fall asleep, never to awake again
I suddenly become interested on Japanese Mythology and fr your voice is soothing to my ears.
Can you do part 2?
VERY COOL !!! VERY AWESOME CONTENT !!! :)
0:47 Nura Rise of the Yokai Clan is my favorite Yokai based anime along with the manga and the movie The Great Yokai war from the mid to late 60s
Jun fukuyama
Takahiro sakurai
Yui horie
Hiroki yasumoto
Masahiro yaba
you didn't mention the Tengu, one of my favorite Demons
Play Nioh and it will be your least favorite..
@@Voidsent_ speaks truth
That Raven Tengu bastard killed me many times in NIoh
Who else loves Yokai? My favorite are Kitsunes and Futakuchi-onnas.
@I'm a red whale
Cool. I don't think I've heard of that one.
I like Menreiki
I was saying the same thing i love yokai the win spirit I gut a cat spirit it's no joke I love him so much I had him from the day I was born and I'm 24 when I'm writing this message but I still have my yokai cat on my inugamy dog
I'm on Oni my self
I am fan of Kistunes , the Raiju, and Kirin
Thank you for this very interesting video. But some of the pronunciations were wrong here, specifically "onna" (which means female in Japanese, and you pronounce it as "on-na", and not as "ona"); and "komainu" (which is pronounced as "koma-inu" and not as "komai-nu")
But this video was very interesting and informative and thank you for that (and I loved the art featured in it.) Now I'm off to find the hoards of obvious Death Note and Gintama references in the comment section
ok thx that helps
Great video.
nice vid,, hehe i was waiting for hone onna(bone lady) on the list..
Thank the kamisamas i recognized all of these and more from animes and games. But it's a good thing to learn their background a bit more.
The cartoon versions are not so bad. They seemed more friendly and approachable. 😏
Hi, could you guys possibly do a video on Van Helsing or Mr Hyde
Some dope artwork!
Thank you George Take
Sooooo, I've been playing MHWIB for 3 years and never knew "Kirin" was originally a Yokai...You learn something new everyday, Thank you...Now I know why Kirin is in the Class of Elder Dragons.
this history is amazing
The YOU Kai 😆 awesome!!!
Isnt the "Kamaitachi" 2:06 Temari's summoning animal when she summoned her blade dance jutsu in the original naruto?
omg yess
You are right!
I remember watching an anime show that portrayed all these entities. I wish I remembered its name though. The series really dove into a lot of deeper topics like even suicide. I was a kid though so I never got the chance to understand it fully.
Just amazing
Japan's culture had been haunting me forever, it is just an awesome after awesome knowledge about them!
The 3rd commander of 100 demons yukai: nura riekuo
10:02 Okay, my favorite one is the Komainu.
Truth Spreader mine is shinigami 5:11
Natsume yuujinchou and nurarihyon no mago were the ones that made me familiar with youkai
Please do another one like this
0:46 lol that was from Nurarihiyon no Mago.
"Karakasa okabe are harmless"
*Me who got paralyzed so many time in nioh because of them* >:(
those umbrellas are straight up b**ches I swear
Need more of this... part 2???
Narration is wonderful. Do you have your own channel?
Yess.. Japanese mythology... B)
Watching this reminds me of the "Night Parade of 100 demons"
😂😂😂
Specially the picture at the end of the video.
Ashura Ryuuzen I was looking for you😌😌😌
Half these pictures are literally from that back lol
Please do a Danzaburou video one day
Very interesting !
“So many Youkai. Oh myyyyy.”
I got to know about umibozu from City Hunter.
Wow yesterday i was developing my story about a guy who has a book of mythical beasts to unleash it on the world and this helps me a lot.
can you do tsukumogami?
For a second there I thought he was making a video on one piece
Lol Hakuba from One Piece is based off of those weasels with blade that attack with the wind
Try nioh game in ps4 its all there
The Wano Arc basically
I would really love to see a Yokai 🙂
My favourite one is called zashiki-warashi. They are harmless small yokai that takes the appearence of small children and seeing one can bring fortune to you and/or your family
They felt very surreal when I first learned about them, but then I saw their versions in Gantz and it was fricking scary.
Bro not gonna lie you voice makes me sleepy its relaxing
god have he ever made a video about you?
@@Miex5068 idk
You need to make a crossover with gaijin goombah
Anyone know where they got the images from for this video? I want to get an illustrated book and I really liked some of the images. Thanks!
The Yokai are so amazing I'm obsessed
I got spirited away vibe here
Very informative... Now I know where Naruto got Soo many ideas from
Even bleach
Can you do a video about the 13 kinds of Kitsune?
Thank you. Amazing to be able to study our cultures from everywhere 🌸🦚🍓
Hello, where did you get those images especially the thumbnail?
This video is making me wanna go back and watch Kakuriyo, the Morose Mononokean, Kamisama Kiss, Inuyasha, Nura rise of the Yokai Clan and xxxHolic
My spirit animal is literally the frickin unmbrella
*Sassy* umbrella
oh kabasake?
Make second part with other Youkai like Funa-Yurei, Yamabiko, and many more
Where do u get these good images for the vidoe it’s so good
They went all out with George Takei narration!
I hope you guys do more Asian Mythology.
I hope so too
What is the name of the Shamisen song played during the Kamaitachi segment? Please and thank you!
plzz vidoes about meidival europe
I'm honestly really interested in japanese culture and have always been this just makes me more engaged!
Weeb
Izanagi be like: "all I did was take a dip in a pond.."
I would just like to thank Crendor for narrating this. Thanks, dawg.
Amazing just amazing.Many of my friends just watch Anime but are not interested in learning the history of the country
1:08 is the bridge from spirited away the bridge to the spirit world
Wilma FistFit it’s actually the night parade of 100 demons also called hyakki yagyō
I just meant there are similarities I know it’s not the same but very similar
I just started being interested in Japanese mythology and history(especially bc i realized that animes have so much hidden minings behind a character or symbol) and it’s so interesting! I’m so drawn to it! Can someone please tell if there are any movies or books that have to do with Japanese mythology and where to find them please? I’m trying to learn more but I don’t know where to find anything
If you like video games, nioh and nioh 2 are all about yokais.
I thank Nioh for getting me into this. I've been hooked
Komainu and Kirin are my absolute favorite nest to the nine tailed fox😁
so these are the youkai that the show Youkai watch based them on

Bleach: *breathes heavily*
Would LOVE to add ‘em in a ‘Fairytale’ version of WW2…
Starting with a film about a Centaur in the Polish Horse Calvary & such…
Awesome. If you write it, I'll read.
History has already made the Majority of the ‘Script’, Totally Crazy Studios, heck even I want Stonewall Jackson to be a Golem.
I’m already envisioning a survivor of the assault on Osowiec Fortress, during WW1, being a Soviet General who survives Stalin’s purge because he is already dead…
More importantly, there are certain details that’re deliberately left from history, such as flanking positions that the Humancentric Nazis would use to flank the Allies in order to shoot behind the shield bearing giants/trolls (think LotR…) during D-Day…
@@nickvinsable3798
Cool. Still would makes some really nice historical fictional. 👍
Mmm . . . more like making an allegorical parody of history, Totally Crazy Studios. Its taking what we already have, but twisting it into more of tall tales of sorts. I’ve already envisioned Winters from the 101st Airborne (best reference(s) is “Band of Brothers”) as a Snow Owl Harpy♂ because #1: night drop on D-Day & #2: Bastogne…
With the United States of America so Divided, I want to convey my Subliminal Messaging right in the foreground. You can reach me through Minnesota’s Independence Party (mnip.org) and/or the Alliance to Restore the United States of America Party (theallianceparty.com); known as the ‘Orange Jedi’ because I’ve usually worn an Orange Hoodie & Orange Jeans… But THAT is if you’re looking for a face-to-face interview & such…
@@nickvinsable3798
Oh cool. I think it would be a real good story and such. And I agree the country is pretty divided right now. In my opinion we never should have had a different political parties. It was nice meeting you. Have a good day.
Can you make a video about Japanese Yokai "Tsuchigumo " ?
