From Yokai and demons to fairies and supernatural animals, the origins of today’s best anime and manga come to life in this stirring collection of Japanese folklore. Modern readers will enjoy the artful flourishes of manga-style illustrations that accompany these bold and breathless yokai (supernatural) and kwaidan (ghost) tales. Universal themes such as love, death, fate, revenge, honor, and triumph weave their way through this compelling anthology and shed light on one of the most adored and fascinating cultures on Earth.
YUYUPANCHI studied comic and manga art at Osaka College of Art and Design. He's received numerous illustration awards, including a "Kitaisho" (honorable mention) from Kodansha, the publisher of a monthly comic magazine, and additional manga awards from Japanese publishers Shogakukan and Shueisha. Yuyupanchi creates manga art for clients in various fields, including a series called Aispo for Aichi prefecture.
