Shrine maiden looking for stolen kids sounds like a cool plot of a story. She keeps the belief of mysticism up while just secretly being a good detective
In Brazil "Spirited Away" was translated as "Chihiro's trip"(A viagem de Chihiro). We don't have a word for being kidnapped by a god, but we have the legend of the of the Sack man/Bag man, a man with a sack on his back who carries naughty children away. The legend evolved with time: Originally he only took the children away to a far land, then he sold the children to charcoal mines to work as slaves, and now the works for an international children's organ smuggling gang.
Eai Brasileiro, tudo bem? Eu gosto do português brasileiro; estou aprendendo ele e japonês no mesmo tempo. :) In France, it's the same title as in Brazil: "Le Voyage de Chihiro".
Mine was Ninja Scrolls and Ghost in the Shell. I also recall watching Akira, but it is very blur to me. I need to rewatch that one, just for the historical/social commentary aspects of it.
Story: Unknown man in strange vehicle: "come with me I'll show you many wondrous places" Kid is hesitant. Man offers cookies ... adventures ensue. Reality: Body found 3 months later in the woods.

There is a similar folktales in the Nepali Gorkha clans where it is said that the forest gods abduct young children and raise them teaching them mystic rituals and blessing them with power only to return them to society once they have passed puberty and have completed their mystic education. Nice work Lord Lin many more to go.
Not necessarily Lord Lin these gods are feared they can be tricksters some can be evil too but usually they don't care in fact in some stories yetis fill this role.
aah this video reminds me of how absolutely terrified my grandma was of letting me go to the river alone as a kid. She kept telling me stories of the kappa and told me he would take me away if I ever went there alone or at sunset.

I don't believe his account one bit, don't get me wrong. But I couldn't help but find that dog island eerily similiar to some european societies where people used to wear dog skin (wolf pelts) to protect themselves from the cold and spoke strange languages that sound strikingly similar to dog noises (germanic language family).

They used to find them in places that would be impossible for humans to go by themselves like in crevices under cliffs and forests far away from the place they were missing.

I think its interesting that what he said about the temperature fluctuating depending on how high you are is true to some degree. Im not an expert but i remember learning about it in science class
I'm gonna go with hallucinations (is there anything like magic mushrooms in Japan?) because this all sounds like an ancient acid trip, or possibly a series of vivid and connecting dreams.
Kamikakushi (神隠し ) literally means 'Hidden by kami'. Kakusu means 'to hide or conceal'. I guess abducted doesn't make any difference. Even though I know some stories that Linfany narrates it's fun see his videos and how he narrates the story
Being spirited away is a phenomenon known in many animistic societies across the globe. It's perceived through the cultural lends of the time and place. For instance many have connected fairy abduction experiences to alien abductions etc. Sorry for going off topic I just find it interesting how such things happen cross culturally. I love your videos
This happens in the Hmong culture too. Sometimes ghosts or spirits will appear in dreams, trying to take them away to the spirit world (meaning person would die in their sleep). It is especially a bad omen if you dream about dragons. There’s other things like if you fall in a river/lake your “spirit” falls into the water too so it needs to be called back by releasing a duck into the water and having it swim back. There’s also warnings that ghosts can attach themselves to you and follow you home. People would get sick and need a ritual done by a shaman to get better. These beliefs still continue today.
I fear that man harmed that kid repeatedly for those 5 years and he either dissociated all of it out of trauma or the man drugged him for every "session"... Poor kid.
So i was watching this game show and the person had to pick a topic for the whole game show and got Japanese origins and myths....from watching you I got all the answers right and ended up getting all the answers right...freaked out my family in Newfoundland
This story I really enjoyed. Except the dog part.I love listening to this channel. I guess this is what my teacher was referring to when he'd say "Learning can be fun".
Kappa (4:14) have a seriously dark history. In the Tohoku region centuries ago, famine regularly wiped out swaths of the population. Things would get so desperate that new mothers would sacrifice their infants so there would be less mouths to feed. A common practice was to take them to a stream at night and perform a ritual that would turn the child's spirit into a kappa. It ended with her crushing the infant's skull saying the words 'A kappa needs a place for it's water.' Kappa are depicted with a water filled indentation on the top of their heads. To this day there are rituals at some shrines called water child ceremonies for the spirits of lost or miscarried infants.
This was a really cool story. Someone should turn this into an anime. You'd have to add a villain and explain the story a little more. This is a really cool building point for a wild tale to be spun from though. You have a hero to go on a journey. You have a mentor.
it's chilling that tales like this not only have been told for thousands of years, but similar things are still happening today. a dude named Paulides has done a lot of research on it, and the more you hear about it, the weirder it gets! (he called it missing 411)
Was commenting various times on this (didn't mention Paulides, as didn't think people would have heard of him and get the reference). What is your take on the Missing 411? I'm always interested to hear people's theories. (P.s. I've been following it for years, so no need to explain the basics)
Oh...I think I've heard of that one when I was kid and scared me 😦 Not that she had "no neck" but her head was not attached to head only put together with scarf so take say the scar and head fell, no?

Children being half spirit before 7 might explain those children who can see things and have past memories and then lose them all when they turn teenager
That's neat about the age of seven thing. In ancient Rome, a child was considered an infant until the age of seven because that was the general age of when a child's baby teeth would come out, or at least start to. I think maybe the Japanese had the same sort of logic in that childhood transition.
In my culture, we also have stories of children being taken by spirits for a few hours, but only for them to return to our dimension after 3 years or so.
@@J3diMindTrix I am Filipino and this is based off of folklore here in the extreme north of the Philippines 🙂 There are several tales of little people/dwarves (dwende) spiriting children away or attempting to do just that. One of my aunts in my father's side told me that she was often visited by these dwende folk that no one else seemed to see but her (it is said that the dwende folk like to prey on meek and quiet children). They would speak in a weird language and would try to offer her food. She would always refuse. She eventually told her parents and they promptly called on the local witch doctor who had to do a ritual on her that involved smoke (not too sure on the details of how they did it). One day, they stopped coming by.
We Mizos also have similar folktales like the Yamaotoko(mountain man) that you have mentioned in this video...they were used to be commonly worshipped by sacrificing animals like pigs,dogs and chickens to cure diseases (they didn't have hospitals back then). They are also known for stealing men and women
Hirata Atsutane is the author of Senkyo Ibn He brings a new flow to the national studies, and is called one of the big four of the national studies with nida, Kamo, and Motoorii He is said to have been well versed in Western medicine, Latin, calendar, easy studies, and military studies, and researched and analyzed various religions such as Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Dutch Studies, and Christianity. His story is strange and interesting.There's a lot of talk about youkai In his story, the name of the General of the Japanese Youkai is Sanmoto gorozaemon Sanmoto gorozaemon is said to have fought Shinno Akigoro and became a youkai general

That's neat about the age of seven thing. In ancient Rome, a child was considered an infant until the age of seven because that was the general age of when a child's baby teeth would come out, or at least start to. I think maybe the Japanese had the same sort of logic in that childhood transition.
Ah interesting!
Tbh I kinda wanna get spirited away and see all of those amazing things. Although the dog people kinda....
Hmm...
Might wanna skip that one

In my culture, we also have stories of children being taken by spirits for a few hours, but only for them to return to our dimension after 3 years or so.
What is your culture, if you don't mind me asking?
I have heard of a very similar thing happening today, in various countries
@@J3diMindTrix I am Filipino and this is based off of folklore here in the extreme north of the Philippines 🙂
There are several tales of little people/dwarves (dwende) spiriting children away or attempting to do just that. One of my aunts in my father's side told me that she was often visited by these dwende folk that no one else seemed to see but her (it is said that the dwende folk like to prey on meek and quiet children). They would speak in a weird language and would try to offer her food. She would always refuse. She eventually told her parents and they promptly called on the local witch doctor who had to do a ritual on her that involved smoke (not too sure on the details of how they did it). One day, they stopped coming by.
Him: dont eat for 100 da-

We Mizos also have similar folktales like the Yamaotoko(mountain man) that you have mentioned in this video...they were used to be commonly worshipped by sacrificing animals like pigs,dogs and chickens to cure diseases (they didn't have hospitals back then). They are also known for stealing men and women
Oh cool =)

Hirata Atsutane is the author of Senkyo Ibn
He brings a new flow to the national studies, and is called one of the big four of the national studies with nida, Kamo, and Motoorii
He is said to have been well versed in Western medicine, Latin, calendar, easy studies, and military studies, and researched and analyzed various religions such as Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Dutch Studies, and Christianity.
His story is strange and interesting.There's a lot of talk about youkai
In his story, the name of the General of the Japanese Youkai is Sanmoto gorozaemon
Sanmoto gorozaemon is said to have fought Shinno Akigoro and became a youkai general
