Godsip Club newsletter - Yōkai
Hello there! 🍸
I hope you're enjoying these festive days. Personally, sometimes I'd like to skip forward something like a month... But Christmas atmosphere has something magical I can't figure out. At the end, I guess I like it.
Now, it's time to talk about serious matters: monsters. From Asia. Japan, particularly. Yes, yōkai! Lately, I've been reading an Italian translation of a monumental work of Shigeru Mizuki. It's interesting to see how Shinto religion has spirits/gods for so many noises, emotions, or unanimated objects. Overall... There are some twisted images in here, not gonna lie. See the footnotes on the post. 👀
You can find my brief article about the yōkai here.
I hope you’ll enjoy your reading. Get in touch for any feedback!
Happy new year! 🎉
