In Norway where I'm from. We celebrate Sankta Lucia in a day we call Luciadagen (Saint Lucy's Day). The traditional is for young people to dress in an all white dress and wear 4 on the head singing a song called Luciasangen (Luciasong). So that means Norway is breaking this Japanese law 🤣 🇳🇴
I am Japanese. It is actually "Ushi no koku mairi" (this is what the ritual was traditionally called). It is written in Japanese as 丑の刻参り. 丑 (牛 is the modern way of writing it) is the ox of the Chinese zodiac. 丑の刻 (pronounced Ushi no koku) is between 11PM and 1AM, and it is the old Japanese way to tell time. It is said that 丑の刻参り is done to call upon an old evil god/spirit during the 常夜 (pronounced "Tokoyo." it means the constant night and darkness) to place a curse upon someone.
“Hell Girl” has a similar doll. Instead of nailing the doll to a sacred tree, the owner of the doll pulls the red thread off the doll to activate the curse process.
Yes, because it was serialized in a magazine which target demographic was elementary school girls. No one wants to encourage minors sneaking out at night or getting hurt by trying to use a hammer and nail without adult supervision, right?
A few years ago, I began making the version of this doll from the anime Hell Girl with the black straw and red thread. I didn't do it to harm others or desecrate anything. I just like to weird people out. I would just leave them in random places around town for people to eventually find. I made hundreds of them and a lot were found but I am sure there are some waiting to be found in the older parts of a few libraries and corners of bookstores and hiding in the occult section. I live in a small town in Vermont and there's not much to do here. I made the local paper several times with everyone was wondering about the dolls and who left them around town.
That Greek law made immediate, perfect sense to me. Especially when you read into it. From what I read, high heels aren't illegal, so long as you don't visit certain ancient monuments, as they cause wear and tear to the structures. It's to prevent unnecessary damage.
I agree, don’t do this at all. Leave shrines and sacred trees alone. But I can’t help but to giggle that the guy tried to end Putin. The whole world is sick of his existence.
Not really, voodoo dolls have a lot of misconceptions and they're actually meant to be a source of protection or healing in the culture they originated from. The doll is kinda more like what the media portrays voodoo dolls as.
That headline… PUTIN straw doll…. PUTIN. And the fact I thought it was a misspelling had me wheezing. I legit thought they were trying to say putting. 😂
I'm assuming it was sent by Nicolas Claux/Castelaux 😬😖He's the only cannibal that Aki unknowingly interacted with. She needs to move as he appears to know her address. She is not safe if she hasn't already! 😰
Regarding the one about Singapore, from what I've heard, its legal to chew it, but not to sell or buy it within the country. So the only way you could get chewing gum is bringing it back from outside countries. As for why it was banned, Singapore used to have an issue where irresponsible people would stick gum in random places for their convenience instead of wrapping them in a tissue paper and throwing them away. This resulted in quite an issue for the government and quite a lot of costs to clean up the gum. Thus the ban, to minimalize such instances ever happening.
This doll reminds me of the one in Hell Girl a little bit? An anime called Jikoku Shojo had a doll similar, but it wasn't the same steps to curse a person with it. Hell of a good anime though.
This reminds me of the fact that you can’t perform blood rituals in Louisiana. It’s straight up illegal. You also can’t perform voodoo within the city limits of New Orleans but I don’t think that one is enforced.
@9:20 this is probably just a bit that you're doing, but it is still very funny and I love that you were supposedly considering 'is there anyone I would do this to? Probably not. Although......nah, that person isn't worth it. But there is THAT person.....naaaaaah.' 😂😂😂😂😂
Can't speak on behalf of the Japanese because I'm not Japanese myself but I am Asian and it's because most Asian cultures are very spiritual and superstitious. A lot of laws that you might think are weird probably have some sort of spiritual reason as to why it might be illegal.
Fascinating! I wondered if Japanese culture included any magical practices. Would love to know more. And, are there magical practices specifically associated with Shinto?
2:32 in the Anime and Manga of Ranma 1/2 there is a character named Gosunnkugi who curses Ranma with nailing a straw voodoo doll. It also happen in Urusei Yasura when Ataru and mendo use the straw doll to attack each other.
I'm happy your doing alright Aki And I heard of this legend while listening to Horror Stories to fall asleep The scorn woman in a straw doll was told alot and it was also reference with Hell Girl, Ai gives the client a straw doll with a red string, pull the string The clients revenge takes place. Don't then the doll is just nothing That's what pop inti mt mind when I heard Straw doll
Now that’s a title that caught my attention. Like…a doll? Gets you?? ARRESTED??? Edit: just in case, I posted this comment when the video was published like 30 seconds ago. Ofc I finished the video afterwards and learned what Aki actually meant. I was basically saying the title was catchy to make you curious (hooray, a YT title does its job! 😂😂 /hj)
@@og_3rd_st_saint_gat Its an age old tradition in Japan, and I've seen it quite alot in my upbringing in animations like doraemon and other ones probably just as a warning or so, but its been in the culture and looked badly for many years. I was personally taught that if you get caught doing it you are the one to get the curse you try to administer.
Fun fact, there is a hell correspondence website we can all go to which is meant to replicate the hell correspondence in Jigoku Shoujo. The only downside, we still don't see Enma Ai.
moral of the story here is if you are going to place a curse on someone don't cause damage to a sacred and protected tree in the process just like burn an effigy or something
The Strawdoll originated from the MaoShan Sect of Taoism dated back around 2700 years, passed into Japan during Tang Dynasty. According to legends, was used by trained MaoShan Shamans to extract bad energy or evil spirit from someone then trap them inside then burn the strawdoll using lychee branches to break the bondage/curse. It can also be used in reserve to curse someone, but requires something biological from the target's body such as hair, skin, blood then wrapped with a yellow spell charm written with crimson ink made from the combination of the blood of a 50 year old hen + cinnarbar followed by an incantation, the target's spirit will be linked to the strawdoll
I mean it ain't really complicated enough to need note taking. I am just wondering how you go about nailing a bunch of dolls to a sacred tree multiple days in a row. The vast majority of shrines are in or near populated areas. And usually have the priest and his family living on site. And from my experience most Japanese people are surprisingly light sleepers.
There is also a character in Shaman King who literally uses this technique to curse the main villain. However, the curse backfired and killed the character.
He was my introduction to the dolls. He mostly did that because he hated the main guy for being the main girl's fiance. Thankfully that every time he did that ritual, something would stop him
I literally just learned about the Ox Hour ritual earlier today from reading Associate Professor Akira Tatsuki’s Conjecture. How did this same topic come to me twice today?!
Thank you Aki, totally loved seeing the references and the actual historical info. Can't wait to see more weird and creepy things from Japan. Wishing you lots of health and luck!
Should be made from Kusha grass, which is associated with the South Node of the Moon, and the nail should be ideally a horseshoe nail, mantrafied with: Om kilikila vajri vajri bhur bandha bandha hum phat. Preferred tree's would be Ficus, or any tree in the yard of the target, or a support beam in the house if you have access to the house. For maximum effect you rasp the end of the nail with a file back and forth.
We have a similar doll in indonesia, it’s called “jelangkung” or which means “possessed doll” (my guess) well many TH-camrs from indonesia played this for a challenge or just for fun, but actually this can cause: seizures,possession,and maybe su1cid3, there’s nothing much I know, if u played this, u won’t get arrested (just letting you guys know) there’s also a spell
Anyways, before u do the ritual, u must know the spell, cuz if u don’t the doll will never reacted, idk? Maybe there are some cases abt this doll (sry if this is out of topic lol)
@@OriNaruYou're assuming Putin is the sole driving force in the Soviet...sorry Russian side of the war. Wars are never that simple. Multiple and powerful people are wholeheartedly supporting Putin. They want the USSR 2.0 .
It's really interesting, I learnt about them from an anime called 'Ghost Hunt', there is a version where it's made out of wood in the shape of a person. But it was interesting to learn that the doll itself is neutral, and like with a lot of religious objects cause be used for good or evil, in cases of good it is used to protect a person from harm, in the case where it's evil (likely why this law was put in place) it is used to cause harm or a death curse upon someone. Japanese spiritual (supernatural and religious) always are so interesting to learn about :)
Although this doll would normally be used for negative things you can use it for positive things as well because other cultures around the world have similar concepts to this. At least in the west this is known as Sympathetic Magick a process in which you're using an item to represent someone or even yourself. Theoretically you could use it for Love spells, Money attraction, Healing as well as Protection.
I can see another reason you can be arrested other than desecrating shrines and that’s the intent to harm. It doesn’t matter if it wouldn’t have worked, you did this with the intent to cause serious damage. It’s kind of like here in the UK you can be arrested for conspiring to commit a crime, even if you don’t actually go through with it
At where I'm from, you definitely don't want to mess with some restaurants or you'll get a "special ingredient" in it or random people who are likely practicing voodoo or other witchery.
It's mostly due to the ritual involving such doll requires a intent to kill/grudge... It's kinda hard to do such ritual nowadays. It's better to use a more complex ritual due to it being less detectable...those require materials from the target and several other steps and ingredients...

Will the curse work if I nail the doll on some random tree between 1 to 3 am?
That sounds spooky reminds me of those voodoo dolls
There's a tokyo inn near where I live... I guess it's one the dark god's business in the modern day lol~

I don’t think either of theses laws are enforced unless you kill or harm someone to do it. How are they to know
It is stupid as fuck to try and make closed practice illegal (voodou/voodoo is a closed practice)
