Hey, when you find love, embrace it in whatever eight legged form it takes!
To quote a Tumblr post I once saw; “It doesn’t matter how terrifying or monstrous or deadly you make your eldrich monster, there’s gonna be a person who hauls themselves out of the sewers to tell you that they will personally fuck it.”
Watched Alien, can confirm
Yep. I can imagine what i would say which goes along the lines of "No matter how terrifying you are, how deadly you are, or how hostile you are, we as humans can endure longer. No matter how many of us you may strike down, we will continue to grow stronger than you ever imagined. It may not be now, it may not be generations from now, but eventually, EVENTUALLY, you WILL fuck one of us, whether out of true desire, or morbid curiosity, and in that regard, we have already won"

Y’know, if the Jorogumu was actually going to kill the woodcutter, she would have killed him way earlier, either when he dropped his axe (No axe means no woodcutting, meaning he’s not going to leave for a very long time), or when he arrived for the many, many, maaaany times they met up. Because she didn’t kill him those times, she probably didn’t kill him when he got caught. So yes...

@@jessdanae138
This explaination is totally cannon to me.
His dad created Ungoliant. Can you blame him?
To be fair, she didn’t specify which Tolkien she was referring to.
Can we talk about how local dude from 3:00 thought that a confused little spider was making a home on his leg, and he just, like, gently moved the web over to a tree instead of just destroying what he thought was a little spider's hard work? That's so sweet of him to be so considerate of the spider. I mean, the spider was actually a man-eating spider lady, but, you know, it's the thought that counts.
I know, right?
1:30
@@eduardomelo151 You're completely right, I feel real stupid XD
Probably why she decided to not eat him.
There's a bit of Japanese and Buddhist culture in that. Insects aren't universally creepy in Japanese aesthetics, and being kind to a spider and avoiding killing it is an example of how you act if a spider might have been a human in a previous life.

*Monster Musume intensifies
FBI: HOLY SHIT YOU READ THAT TOO umm ....
ahem. ....Nothing illegal here.
I see he's a fellow 'leg man'
Name checks out
I mean there's two ways it could play out:
1. Get a hot spider girlfriend
2. Die
Seems like a win/win to me
Both
I like to think that the Jorogumo, at some point during her little seduction of the woodcutter, decided, “Huh, this guy hasn’t tried hitting on me, demanded sexual favors from me, or done anything that past meals have tried. And he even learned what I was, and he still came back. Maybe I won’t eat him...until he dies, that is, then it’s fair game.”
This is a super cute idea.
They had ten kids and she didn’t eat him when he died she gave him a burial and then figured out how to get more men like him to eat them instead
How do we know she didn’t make his ass immortal so he’ll be with her forever?
@@joshuastrittmatter4188
Fair point.
I don't know how to feel about that "dating hot spider monster" was not a concept invented by anime.
Its been around, and in many cultures too. But where did you think anime got it from? Japan was batshit for a while, all it took was animation for it to get noticed
I mean as Red has said in other Vids, Anime just takes all these Legends and folktales wholesale and runs with it
And yet still came from Japan.

I honestly thought I was nice until I saw that part. Gotta try harder I guess.
Probably saved his life. Bet it’s like fishing if he ripped it he would’ve died
If he ripped it the tree wouldn’t have been ripped into the water, meaning he never finds out about the spider-demons and countless other people die.

"One specific rock that was possessed by a malevolent kitsune and killed everyone it touched" was it a... rolling stone?
Get your damn jojo reference outta here
I see what you did there.
For mythological context, the Kitsune in question was Tamamo-no-Mae, one of the infamous Three Terrible Yo-kai of Japan, who was a famous trickster and seductress who charmed her way into the Imperial court in order to corrupt and destroy as many monarchs as she could. When she was eventually found out, chased down, and slain, her spirit possessed the rock in question, and her malevolence seeped to the surface as a deadly poison, killing anything it came in contact with. That was, until a priest came along, reconciled Tamamo's spirit, and set her free, thus causing the rock to shatter.
Sorry for the nerd-out, I'm just a huge mythology buff, hence why I'm subbed to OSP (and I really hope someone commissions Red to do a video on those three, their stories are actually really interesting)
@@joshcolon8291 she also apparently did a stint or two in both China and Korea at some point before her death so there's that too, Im not sure if she is the same one or is just broad termed in both those countries due to similarities of the mythos and the like to something similar in each respective culture, Either the way the idea of a country hoping fox lady is pretty cool
@@chandlermuehlberg2044 they are different kitsune in China and Korea, and iirc there is a story of a Korean kitsune mourning her sister accross the sea
0:33 That sealed stone, the "killing stone" just cracked open this year inexplicably.
So... some people think that kitsune might go on a killing rampage to get revenge on the world for sealing her away hundreds of years ago! Fun!
Have they tried bribing her? That usually works to calm pissed off gods and fairies.
Probably came to America or Ukraine.
Considering how many unpopular rulers have either gotten the boot and/or died since, something that kitsune was known for causing, I think she's doing us a service.
@@coltonwilliams4153 bribery typically isn't the cheat code to calm down a supernatural entity that's pissed. Besides, Kitsune are neither God or Fae, they are fox spirits :)
Yes, but they can be just as fickle as fair folk or many gods, and it does work in some stories

Four years later: Still waiting on a full video about that killer rock.
It actually just cracked open this year inexplicably... Scientists speculate it was because of odd weathering.
A surprisingly large amount of people seem to be genuinely worried that the sealed kitsune spirit has now been released and will be going on a killing rampage- or something.
@@AlyxTremblay Wait… it seriously split open?
@@AlyxTremblay I thought a monk pacified the evil kitsune in the rock a couple of centuries ago.
“Yknow that one about the specific rock that was possessed by a malevolent kitsune that killed everyone it touched? I love it, it’s great.”
Uniquegirl 10 I suspect this refers to the legend of Tamamo No Mae, the Rock is what happened after she got killed, there's a whole other bunch of stuff before that
Okay but can you imagine proving it though?
"This rock was cursed by an evil spirit to kill whoever touches it!"
"oh yeah? Prove it!"
"uhhhh.................." **curveballs the rock into their skull David and Goliath style** "ah ha! Told you!"

"But surprisingly, this isn't a deal-breaker"

So, uh, about that rock you mention at 0:35 ...it, uh, broke into like 3 pieces... this year
Yeah we screwed
Ten days ago in fact. They've already preformed a ceremony as a preventative measure. Lots of active shrines that will likely see a spike in talisam sales. Still, its likely going to cause some urban legends of its own.
Turns out that the lumberjack's spider-waifu just really likes bondage.

Soooo. . . That demon rock broke. . .
This video left me feeling very confused with my emotions. On the one hand, I'm terribly arachnophobic so the image of a giant spider demon absolutely terrifies me...but on the other hand my love for sappy romance schlock makes me want to think this guy got to actually live with her happily and she DIDN'T eat him. Cap that off with the ending song being She's Always a Woman by Billy Joel and that's a melting pot of things I love and things I'm cripplingly horrified by.
100% same feeling
Tyler McKnight She wouldn't have necessarily ATE him. That's not what spiders do to their prey and (if female) husbands. See, spiders wrap their meal up while still living and then drink all their bodily fluids. So, yeah. If a giant spider lady asks you out and you have kids, she's going to immediately kill you after she's pregnant. Have fun being afraid of spiders!
@@demonicprinter Well generally; the female can be persuaded NOT to eat the male if he can provide her with sufficient food as a replacement. If the male's gifts are enough to keep the female sated for long enough he can mate with her and get out of there without dying. However given the relatively short lifespan of males most only really bring enough to keep the female busy during sex because it's likely their only chance for it in their lifetime anyway so there's not much need to be concerned with escaping. Translating that into humanoid spider-women; wait on her hand and foot (all 8 of them), constantly feed her and attend to her every whim and she MAY decide to let you live so long as you're useful.

Honestly, Youkai being translated to Demon is the mother of all mistranslations. Demons are very specifically evil Angel's fallen from heaven. Youkai are spirit-ish creatures that take on all manner if roles, good evil and neutral. Calling them Fae woukd probably be more accurate.
And that’s why I feel that there’s a connection between the myths of the Britanian archipelago and the Japanese archipelago. Yokai and fae are just way too similar, from how varied their appearances are, to their actions, and even the stories about some of their domains doing weird shit. I think it’s the meridian, combined with where they’re at on their respective plates. The walls between worlds might actually be thinner there.
While I agree Yokai being called demons is wrong, demons are actually not Fallen Angels. Fallen Angels are their own class of creature. Demons are the spawn of Adam's first wife Lilith after she was banished from Eden.
@@torazely
Where in the Bible is that? Because the Bible is pretty clear on the origin, and relation, between angels to Fallen to demons.
Also to my memory and reading Lilith isn't recorded.
@@clayxros576 first off, the Bible has no reference to how Angels or demons came to be. They just show up at some point.
Secondly, she's from Jewish folklore, meaning she was most likely purposefully excluded from the Bible when it was being written, considering women weren't allowed much freedom or agency in th past, therefore attempting to validate the sexist male-dominated society by saying that women were purposefully made to submit to men.
@@torazely
The Bible records God's dealing with humans, and therefore describes how Earth was created. Not the Heavens, and by extension Angel's. However Demons are explicitly noted as being thrown out from Heaven, and further following Satan. Demons follow Satan, and aren't differentiated from fallen angels. Thus they are, logically, the same thing.
Jewish mythology isn't Hebrew mythology. God disowns them for a pretty clear reason, especially because they were well known (and called out) for mixing their beliefs with other beliefs systems. Lilith isn't recorded in the Bible, thus she didn't exist. Otherwise it would have recorded her and her progeny.
You're making alot of assumptions about the Bible. Have you read it or are you mashing this stuff together?

"Your girlfriend is a Spider Yokai" Would be a great anime title.
@@rayanderson5797 yo that....isn't wrong....
@@rayanderson5797 That would be fun to watch
... Which Jack?
@@AnimeSunglasses The Lumber Jack.
Does uh, anybody happen to know where this waterfall is?
Asking for a friend.
Red says it at the start. The Joren Waterfall.

Is this friend's name "Fortunato?"
"Friend"
Inquisitor White didn’t know we were “friends”, but thanks 😂
Sorry man, the spider lady's already taken by Mr Lumberjack.
A fairy tale with a mysterious open ending: I love it!
Rest of the virgin world when dealing with demons: Scared. Violent. Rude.
Japan when dealing with demons:
That InuYasha anime music when discussing the inaccuracy of the "demon" translation.
Perfection.
I thought that's what that was! no wonder it sounded familiar.
Honestly, hearing that Youkai is translated as Demon makes thing make WAY more sense, since Youkai are way more like Fae than demons.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who noticed! It's been forever since i've seen Inuyasha, but I can't wait for the sequel
I scrolled too far to find this comment.
Huh, here I'd thought it was from Demon Slayer but this came out before that.
Spider woman : *drags a tree into a river
*Rock music start*
that local dude :Why do I hear boss music?
Some people probably find that much strength attractive
It bothers me that the web was weak enough the guy could casually pull it off his leg and put it on the tree, but then strong enough to uproot and pull a tree in the the water.
idk, maybe this is a weird demon spider web that needs time to get that sticky?
@@robertdicke7249 Maybe.
That rock that's possessed by a Kitsune? Yeah, it split recently. So there's that.
to be fair: spider lady WOULD probably give good hugs
"Jorogumo, I've come to bargin."
Jorogumo upon meeting the wood cutter: 88w88 what's this??
*Food*
ツInsomniac Draws Fanart please stay away from me and my family
I loved the Inuyasha OST when talking about Yokais, funny that some people in the comments are like "Well Japan was always weird uh?" when there are literally similar concepts around the world lol. Like the Mermaids, the Sirens, at leath in this story about a half animal half woman monster there was a chance to a happy ending (basically Japan the only thing that did was gave the chance to the monster to have a human nature)
“You know, there’s one about one specific rock that was possessed by a malevolent kisune.” 🙃
Automatic English subtitles think "Jorogumo" is "draw Goomba", and there's something special about that.
Wow
I hope him and his spider Waifu are happily together. Weeb End
dont you mean web end
He needs to tap her belly just the right way to communicate his indentions or she might feel threated and flee, alternatively she might decide he is food and eat him. At least that is all I know about spider courtship, you know... just in case.
I like to imagine he lives there, and she only partially drains his life at any given time. He's happy with a spider girlfriend, she's got a constant food source. Everybody wins?
I just think she could have killed him way quicker and easier instead of going on all those dates.
@@Halinspark You know, valid point! She can uproot a tree, why couldn't she uproot, you know, his head.
@Forgetful Cloud
Someone with the power to kill you but won’t because they love you.
Seems like a completely normal relationship to me
This dudes either down bad or knows exactly what he wants and won’t let anything get in the way and either way I respect
Given that the Kitsune murder-rock broke in half relatively recently... Are we ever going to get a video on Tamamo-no-Mae, the Kitsune in question?
I still have nightmares about mothman...0:06
Mothman at my window:"Dö yöü hävë thë lämp bröthër?"
THAT IS THE FUNNIEST JOKE IN THE COMMENTS!!!!! THANK!!!
Well, do you have a lamp???
The question is which Mothman, The Horror Story Mothman or the Shin Megami Tensei Mothman?
Because I'll be a little hilarious if it is the SMT Mothman with his RëD EYES...
Blue Body Hair and Colorful Wings, cute and dangerous little thing (-:
“Tolkien’s crippling arachnophobia did not die for this...”
That line killed me😂😂😂
Spiders are proof gods not real.
Christian Martinez. Athena would like to have a word with you, mate.
No idea who that is
@@ironicname2
She's a Greek goddess who is credited with responding to a bragging weaver by turning the woman into the first spider.
Well it looks like I gotta burn an entire Greek god.
Red: *talks about a stone possessed by a kitsune that kills everyone that touches it*
Me, A fan of Tamamo from the Fate series: I get that reference.
2:54 “Screw what the tengu said! I’m coming baby!” 2:57 *get brought in by web getting hugged by his love* and they got married and human half yokia kids this is my head cannon
I like to think the Spider-Demon also fell in love because otherwise, why not just do the same thing she tried to do to the other guy? Instead she returned the ax and talked to him, hung out with him.
Or maybe I'm just a hopeless romantic who loves shipping a little too much (Oh my god, I'm like a male Aphrodite in that regard).
Maybe she just likes playing with her food.
Maybe, after what happened with the other guy failed, she got smarter and went with the alternative strategy of approaching him as a human woman and draining him slowly.
Dude, do you not know what female spiders do to their mates? They have a fling followed by supper, but it's a dinner reservation for one.
@@thestranger4894 she also did ship people except she made her otps real by kidnapping people.
Example: Helen of Troy
You are good to go so long as you aren't willing to literally murder for your OTP
Tell us the story about the kitsune rock Red. Please
Oh Kitsune in general
Maybe it's this yokai.com/sesshouseki/
It's Tamamo no Mae
@@chelvo56 All I can think of is Fate now. ........now I really wanna cuddle a big floofy tail.
@@chelvo56
Actually the story of Tamamo no Mae is kinda sad.
Me: *touches a rock*
Huh, that’s weird. I’d expect it to actually do so-
*gets dark souls backstabbed*
The Rock never really was on your side.
Look out! That's not your regular boulder, that's Havel the Rock!
Short summary: Lumberjack simps for a spider-lady and ignores other peoples warnings about said spider-lady
THE POWER OF BUDDHISM COMPELS YOU
Meditates agressievely
I'd really wanna see the one about the rock and the kitsune
It's tamamo no mae's story (or p much how it ends tbh) and it's honestly a wild ride
monkee boi It would still be interesting. I've never heard about that story so I'd love to see it done by OSP😊
Really reminds me of a Rolling stone in Italy
fuccboi gilgamesh What did Keith Richards do this time?
fuccboi gilgamesh jojo reference?
I love how the rock that she talks about in the beginning broke and it was all over the news.
I find it amusing that the rock with the kitsune spirit split clean down the middle last year (or maybe it was this year, I forget), and it caused people who believe in the myth to evacuate their collective bowels in fright!
So people wanting to [love] the monsters _Isn't_ a new thing.
All animals love to breed, and sentience only seems to add the desire to breed with things you (really) shouldn't.
Neither is vore fetishists, apparently.
Venom legit has the same concept
Selena Gamya
Explains why monster girl fetishes are so common nowadays...heck, even I have one...
Moths are cute man...
Nope. Zeus turned into animals at least three times, once into a golden shower (of coins), and various other deities have turned into animals to procreate.
In Italy we've got a cat demon: The Mammon Cat.
It's basically a giant, man-and cattle-eating cat that reigns over all cats and has carnival related magic powers
I wish I knew more about Italian folklore but what I do know of it is really awesome
Alex Middleton unfortunately we lost most of the details about the mammon cat.
It's like in Red's video about Queatzalcoatl: most legends treat him as something so famous it doesn't need introductions.
So we have to construct our way to its origin by the little pieces of information scattered around the peninsula
What does "carnival related magic powers" mean exactly?
Like Roman chupacabra?
Wren Dean Ok, that's something I made up.
But most Mammon Cats are connected in some way to Carnival. So they are basically the spirit of the holiday, like Santa Clause is for Christmas or the Easter Bunny for... Easter.
2022 UPDATE ON THE KITSUNE ROCK: THE ROCK IS BROKEN AND SHE HAS ESCAPED!
Fun fact, the yokai were often used as lessons or as a way to explain phenomena that was beyond the people at the time, like your house creaking at night
"But Grimsby, 8 legs..."
"7 viganias."
More like 4 cause its one V for every pair of 2.
liam mercado123 This is not the things we should be debating
liam mercado123 but look at it this way...for every joining of two legs, there is one V, or more specifically, the rule "every pair of legs, for all legs results in one v for every pair...
Or, let _x_ represent the number of legs and _v_ the obvious
*_x_** - 1= **_v_** , If **_x_** is more than 2*
It's like how you have 5 fingers, and 4 bits in between.
m a y b e m o r e
Liam it's actually probably 3 because she probably has 6 legs
"Well if you want a story that has a definate unhappy ending!" *Points to Extra Credits logo*
Oh, so they know about the James Portnow situation.
The what?
@@galactakid7064 James Portnow of Extra Credits, their "game industry liaison" as they would call him from time to time, turned out to be a serial harasser who would threaten to terminate the employment of at least two people at Extra Credits unless they would date him. He was also responsible for their pro-lootbox stance, but that's just me being petty.
@@crazyinsane500 1. His last name is portnow?
2. What
3. The
4. Fuck

Mother fucking what? James? W-why? I’ve been watching that channel for almost six years! I never would’ve thought that he’d do something like that. Was that why Lele left? I have *way* too many questions
Red: A Rock that was possessed by a kitsune... Me: Tamamo intensifies.
I played “Tolkien’s crippling arachnophobia did not die for this” on loop for at least 5 minutes!
I love how all these English videos on the Jorogumo are trying to be nice to it and put “Binding bride” “ maiden spider” and names like that when it clearly just means whore spider 🤣🤣 it’s literally the two bits that encompass the word, Joro =whore , gumo= spider
Still love the video tho😊
