So this is how monks acquired an infinite amount of straw hats. This has to be one of the best educational channels out there.
And you are everywhere!
@@Linfamy Finally you notice!
So after smallpox was eradicated, I guess the monks had to come up with their own hats.
@@Linfamy dude this guy shows up in the randomest moments and videos. I question his life and what he does for a living because he's EVERY WHERE on youtube
Still copying the mustache guy, huh.. maybe one day you'll be able to match his video watching and commenting numbers.. as it is you're putting the "just some guy" name to shame.
Red can actually be effective fighting smallpox, not because of healing, but because if you see someone wearing red, you would stay the hell away so the disease couldn't spread, that was actually quite clever, i wish people nowaday could understand those sort of social cues...
Imagine being a childless couple during those days. You'd need to stock up on brooms every time there was a smallpox outbreak
"Oh no there's an outbreak, my house is gonna be a mess!"
"People Go on pilgrimages to shrines"
Yes, go out when you are sick
I'm horrified
Linfamy I agree.
Going to a shrine full of sick people seeking cures to s probably not a great way to avoid contagion.

It is thought that "Hōsōshin (smallpox demon)" hates the red color.
The people of Europe had the same idea
when he caught smallpox, King Charles V of France was dressed in a red shirt, red stockings, and a red veil.
In European countries the "red treatment" was practiced from the 12th century onwards; when he caught smallpox, King Charles V of France was dressed in a red shirt, red stockings, and a red veil.[9] Queen Elizabeth I of England was likewise wrapped in a red blanket and placed by a live fire when she fell ill with smallpox in 1562, and similar treatments were applied to other European monarchs. Queen Elizabeth I of England was likewise wrapped in a red blanket and placed by a live fire when she fell ill with smallpox in 1562, and similar treatments were applied to other European monarchs.
Bonus Fact: Elizabeth I of England was left with extremely deep and numerous pockmarks. Her solution? Plaster your face with a thick layer of makeup.
Yeah, Germ theory was accepted rather "recently" with the work of Robert Koch and Louis Pasteur. The Austria-Hungarian Doctor Ignaz Semmelweiss found out washing hands between patients lowered child mortality significantly but wasn't believed at that time and was mocked by his peers so he had to move from Vienna back to Budapest where he was born
I wonder where they got that idea from. And why did they not try use medicine. Medicinal herbs have been a part of human culture since prehistoric times.
@@ninjahombrepalito1721
Red rash at smallpox has a good prognosis
Below is speculation.
Each color has its own characteristics and has a great influence on our psychology and behavior.
Red is the color of blood, flesh, and ripe fruit, and it has been a color that is directly connected to life for a long time. Therefore, it is thought that the person reacted instinctively to red.
It is thought that this is because red light stimulates "sympathetic", the pulse and the temperature rise, and blood flow improves.
By the way
NINJA in financial terms means the following.
No Income, No Job and Assets.
Fun fact somehow this wear red was still alive and kicking in the 80s in Poland. I remember having a red thread tied around my wrist when i had the more benin version. No scars thankfully as was properly treated by national health system i guess my family decided trying a bit of red wont harm the medical proceedings 😂

Drier air?
Imagine how freaked out a japanese would be if he went to china during the smallpox outbreak and saw a chinese wedding or Chinese new year celebration...
(Red symbolises prosperity and happiness in chinese culture and is often used in happy occasions such as weddings and new year)
I always thought it deterred evil or misfortune?
There's a story about mercury sulfide being applied to lumber which turned it red (vermillion) but also seemed to preserve the lumber from decay / rot. So this leads people to think that red pleases the gods because lumber painted red didn't rot (the demons were driven out). Hence torii, etc, were painted with this treatment. According to NHK World anyway.
The old woman should have upgraded her Cane to increase its damage before she went out on her adventure, a beginner's mistake in JRPG, hope the Old Woman learns from her mistake.
Its weird how why she chose an Old Woman as her character though, but I'm not judging, the player might have just picked the Random Character in the Character Design Menu.
Maybe She's a DLC Character from "Operation: Defend Britain" :) Horrible Histories reference: th-cam.com/video/OROsPVqMeBs/w-d-xo.html
Duchi yoooooo
Bc if she picked ‘young woman’ she could never travel in peace
She may be min maxing. About 0 strength but that wisdom skill will come in handy if they reach their destination. Should have tried to team up with the young man and form a party.
There's a TON of unique dialogue options for elderly players. She may have been trying to do a wisdom/diplomacy run where she bends everyone to her will
Nicer smallpox poem:

4:55 I too am unable to hear the word 'phenomenon' without humming that!
It's poisoned my mind
I recently read a Touhou dojin dealing with this issue and it's freak'n awesome. The story works within the Touhou framework so it's **very** strange if you're unfamiliar with the setting and characters, but interesting nevertheless. In the setting, there's an area in Japan called Gensokyo that got separated from the rest of the country in a non-euclidean space/barrier just before the Meiji era and it become a sanctuary for Yokai and Josei (now you have to google Josei, tee-hee!). This background is mostly an excuse for little girls with diapers on their head shooting danmaku at each other, but there's a surprising amount of lore to it.
The title is *Tsukurou Namida ni Yamai wa Mebaeru* and the artist is Ichiba Youichi. The artist often deals with the more down to earth aspects of life in the Human Village in Gensokyo. You can find it on Mangadex or Mangahasu and many other places.
What?
@@capivara6094 damn bro you dyslexic or something?
04:57 I'm glad it's not just me who has that reaction to the word 'phenomena'.
I can't NOT hear it.
I have a Japanese mother and I remember crying when I got my first B in school lol But thankfully she wasn’t super harsh on me overall.
But other Asian parents: “You are the 99%?
Why you not 100%!?!?”
“You can be anything you want when you grow up. Doctor of engineer.”
“You 15 now, why you no doctor yet?”
“At first you don’t succeed, don’t come back home”
In middle school, I brought home a report card with all A's except for one B. My dad yelled at me until I cried.
Not only was he livid about the B (understandable ¬_¬), he was also mad about the A- 😂
Linfamy lol I feel you. But hey, we survived :)
steve gale
My rule of thumb is to yell with minor wrongs and to punish with major wrongs, ie minor stealing in the house and then crimes like stealing from the store.
Glad I don't have Japanese parents...
Ever since I started watching ur videos, I has been telling my friend these Japanese stories when our conversations turn into an awkward silence. They’re really good stories! ^w^
That's awesome, spread that knowledge!
I am going to be honest, I you got many, many chuckles out of me when you made your jokes (like how smallpox and red go together like rockstars and depression) and those poxetries weren't to bad either.
Now for a coronavirus poem:
I am not going to lie
If my friend gets COVID-19
I am going to banish him to a mountain to die
The poem is lame but it sounded better in my head.
lol decent
Words can not express how happy I am. That I found someone else with the same impulse every time i here the word phenomenon.
Can't help it :p
I like how polite they are that they return all the remedy items after they were done with them
still polite amidst death and suffering :p
Red has always been a color of healing. I remember as a child my mother would treat us with vicks vapor rub and wrap our necks and chest with red flannel. Only red would do. And today we know that red or infrared light aids healing.
The demon is afraid of red？It must be capitalism.
"Wanton destruction"
Nice-oo
1:46 Once upon a time there was a little yokai girl, with an adorable red cape and GREAT FLAMING POCKMARKS
And she killed the big bad wolf after about a week.

Glad to hear it! :D
Thank you for the "Do doo do do doo". After the word phenomenon. I thought I was the only one who did that!
I appreciate the explanations of the poems.

I've always been curious about the ropes with paper hanging from them. I saw them all the time in anime shrines but I didn't know what they meant until now. Thank you
The smallpox demon really said
"oh my bad fam I ain't realize this was your house let me just take this *takes back smallpox* and I'll be on my way".
Like that was gonna fix everything more importantly I'd have been so confused my son is sick then dad comes home pacified immediately and bows 😐 like excuse me...
Linfamy, please do a video on The Fox Kuzunoha
It's amazing how backwards was their knowledge of medicine, even in more recent times, even when considering that the world as a whole came with the germ theory very recently.
I heard a podcast about ancient Mesopotamia, the "Oldest Stories". And for what I know (from that source and others), the those urban civilizations had a better understanding of diseases and medicine than those primitive japanese, it's amazing.
I liked that story about the old lady the guy saved from the dogs it shows one good deed deserves another and teachers be kind to a stranger you don't know who they are going to be
@Jon Goat what do you mean Japan was a weird place vending machines anime culture public transport that's on time vending machines
Linfamy I find your videos funny. And your voice attractive
Do you know what’s interesting, speaking of red, the reason they probably use red, because red has been always been the color of good luck.
In every Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year, Chinese villiagers would put up everything red, including wearing red clothes. To chase off bad luck demon, which in the Japanese case is the red pox demon.
this is honestly the perfect time to have a video about a disease xD

Yay! A video did come with the post
4:54 Also yes!
yay!
You heard the man,
*DUMP THE HORDERS IN THE WOODS*

Your the best keep it uppp idk what happend to my other comment was first though :/
The red thing worked because it warned others not to touch/be around the infected person.
2:46 small pox bad also, is that boba tea on your mask?
It is
@@Linfamy me neither. I really miss it 😭

In India, we people do some same sort of rituals. Imma tell you, if a child caught "chechak" or some sort of summer disease, the mother of the family ( or anyone but mothers are much better at this job and take more interest) will take neem leave bunch which has 5 or 7 branches and will use that as a fan and since the neem has always been considered "nice" or "germ killing " the wind given through neem leave bunch is considered to be "disease killing". Want more? Ok ok, here goes, if a certain person of a certain family is suspicious of having some sorta evil eye ( #mamasucpicions) than, a pouch of black cloth filled with black mustard will be made and will be rounded around the person head to toe 7 times. Then, that pouch will be kept away at a four Lane Street ( chauraha), the ritual has it that whoever steps on that pouch takes the evil eye away with it.

I'm surprised you didn't mention jizo statues, which wear red bibs and can still be seen in many temples to this day.
I haven't watched this channel for 7 months
How dare you
@@Linfamy lol XD
Please do an episode on amabie! It's currently gaining popularity in Japan.
So they put red things everywhere when there is a case of smallpox near them.
Did they include the fresh blood of the deceased?
Dark 😱
Red light therapy is useful against infections of the skin. It’s possible that red fabric in sunlight or firefight causes the same effect.
Wrapping in red fabric is a treatment that shows up in western tradition a well, long before contract, suggesting some convergent evolution.
1:50 I never expected to see such a thing as Smallpox-chan in my life.
Moral I got from the story; always be willing to help those who need in. You never know you may end up helping!😮
So. I've caught up with this playlist as well. I'm getting good at this. Or perhaps I've got little else to do. Who knows.
You're a beast! 😂
This story reminds me of the nian legend where the human eating lion is scared of red
as someone who lives in the appalachian mountains... don't abandon toilet paper hoarders in the mountains, we don't want those jerks either!
😂
TOO COOL ... Best show on youtube :-)
Thanks!
Poor wontons. Poor, poor wontons.

I rewatched this and only now i have noticed that the Smallpox demon is wearing a hoody with a zipper. I thought it was some sort of an old, traditional japanese garb which i did not know, but then i saw the Zipper.
Can you do a Japanese folklore monster called Nian? I think it's a good idea.

Is there?
my country is also guilty with the red color thing 😅😅
There was akorean series in that series there was a ghost of smallpox
Are korean abd japanese cultures similar
Interestingly, red flannel was used in England to reduce scarring from Smallpox. Something about how the light would re-act with the color red. I wonder if Japanese Doctors and English Doctors learned this technique from Arab Physician Texts or word of mouth?
7:37 I thought that ryo means dragon, so what is the Japanese word for dragon?
Ryu
and money can be dragons...
