Yeah, and the grain of rice trial (complete with ants) is almost spot on to the one Aphrodite gives Psyche in Greek Myth. It's really cool how humans come up with similar stories across cultures!
@@rebeccabertolini4420 It's actually possible that history got muddled and this is an actual appropriated story from Greece, since I think in that story, Psyke was married off to what was supposed to be a hideous monster (like the snake), who was invisible, and when she saw him, it turned out he was Eros (who was super hot, like the snake turned out to be), and he was mad she saw him and ran away. So, both stories involve the female character doing something their husband told them not to. And then mama aphrodite comes in and tells psyke to do some trials, and she gets help from gods and also birds.
It starts out like that, but then it's like the Japanese underworld story where that 81st demigod brother had to sleep in a house of bugs then snakes using a magic cloth.
This reminded me of Psyche and Cupid's story when Psyche's sisters convinced her out of jealousy to to find out her husband's identity, which was the very thing she was told not to. Very interesting. Currently binge watching your vids and I love it
Fun fact: Vega and Altair, together with Deneb, make the Summer Triangle- an astronomical asterism seen clearly during a season change we know as summer :)
What? Literally the only similarities are the presence of a pretty girl who marries a magical man, which is an extremely common myth trope, and a number of trials which are also a very common trope. Gourd-chan isn’t a princess, she isn’t worshipped for her beauty, she isn’t taken to a palace and served by invisible servants, she doesn’t drop oil, there’s no west wind, etc etc
In the Chinese version, the story of the Cowherd and Weaver Girl is one of China’s Four Greatest Folktales, and the celebration is known as the Qixi Festival! Interesting to see how different the Japanese version was 😂 I had no idea the stories were a bit different!
@@snifwa the Japanese and korean version of the qixi story has some variations becuse of culture difference but at the end of the day it is pretty much the same i am suprised that this is the real tanabata story
Me too, I'm surprise that the role of the male and female protagonist are swapped in in the Japanese version One more thing, I literally face palm myself when hearing the part gourd-chan misheard her oni_father-in-law said from one month to one year
My fiancee's (unfortunately deceased March 2013) birthday was July 7th. The version you tell above was not the one that she or anyone that knew her followed. She told me about the Star Festival and the story of Orihime and Hikoboshi. Tanabata for them was more of a romantic event and we wrote our wishes on tanzaku tied to bamboo branches followed by star gazing to see if we could see Vega and Altar. Been doing that every year since I met her over 9 years ago....
The story is truly a bit similar to Eros/Cupid and Psyche, hihihi. But I love it. Thank you, Linfamy!😁 Especially for making it more entertainment. I'm looking forward for more videos and more folktales. Watching this encourage me to write my books😊
This has to be my favorite source of Japanese history and folklore. The way you recount these tales and events makes your lessons so much fun to learn! The humor hits every time. Please don't stop making content anytime soon. I do understand if you need time off, here and there. It's worth waiting for. Thank you so much for doing what you do. ❤ P.S. I can never look at Mario's Tanooki suit the same way again. Lol.
Here onwards, If I'm ever troubled by anything, I'll wave that piece of cloth that has been under my bed since forever and shout "Amewakahiko's Sleeves". I'm god damn sure that it'll work. Thanks
It is interesting to know that Japan has a different folktale for Tanabata, or Qi Xi in Chinese. The Chinese celebrate it as lover's day, like their version of Valentine's day. But in Japan it's a make-a-wish day where they write their wish on a piece of paper and hang it on a tree.
This reminds me of the story of Eros and Psyche, which is part of the inspiration for Beauty and the Beast (so there are similar themes there too): Marrying a monster who turns out to be a Diety/Royalty, having sisters who aren't willing to sacrifice themselves but then get jealous at the youngest sister's good fortune. In the Eros story they convince her to look at Eros while he slept and try to kill him, but the candle wax burns him and as a consequence he fled and she had to fulfill Aphrodite's quests to be reunited. In BATB they convince her to extend her stay, so that the Beast starts to die and she must rush back and save him. It's always interesting to see when there's an overlap in folktales. I love it. 😊
I must've heard the Chinese version of this story then, because the story I heard was about a girl named Orihime, and a guy called Hikoboshi. Orihime's dad was a Kami, and he decides to marry her off to a cowherd named Hikoboshi. So, they marry and fall in love, but then Kami-sama gets mad, because neither one of them does any work any more, Orihime stops weaving every day the way she used to, and Hikoboshi stops doing cow stuff. So, Kami-sama separates them, but Orihime-chan is so sad that Kami-sama decides to let them see each other once a year, on July 7th. 💘💘💘💘👍😁
I was caught off guard with the transformation of the snake-prince. Oni-baby-daddy is something new. Thank you for sharing this new story myth. One of my favourite festivals. 🍶
Apparently if you have two older sisters, letting them know how awesome your life with your unusual and otherworldly loving husband is is a bad idea. This story shares some interesting parallels with the Greek myth of Eros and Psyche and, to a lesser extent, the original tale of Beauty and the Beast. Very cool!
Who can guess which myth Amewakahiko or Ame-no-wakahiko appears in? 🤔 Quiz winner chosen: Aditya M!! "Amewakahiko was sent before ninigi no mikoto to pacify ookuninushi in izumo." ua-cam.com/video/rIrQO6UtuK4/v-deo.html
The legend of "Shokujo(Vega) And Kengyuro(Altair)" was in "19 old poems" summarized in "Selections of Refined Literature " in the Age of Han Chinese. Tanabata is a festival of chinese origin and Chinese transmission to begin with, but the Tanabata festival of China and Tanabata of Japan are treated as quite different things without being equated.
Awwww, it's one of my favorite festivals, what with the summer, the bamboos and star-crossed lovers (literally)... I somehow missed the demon part though 😯
2:26 let me guess... She was born out of a Gourd, ya know, cause Japanese mythology does this thing where a lot of people are born out of Fruits/Veggies.
Spot on as usual. When I lived in Nara, the locals told me that back in the old days people thought the Milky Way was a celestial river and the lovers were stuck on either bank. They had the usual decorations but added long, sparkly mylar ribbons. They didn't tie it in as much with Obon as other parts of Japan because the local Tokae lantern festival is just a month later, and they want the locals paring that with Obon instead.
0:26 🤯 that’s why they choosed these stars’ names for Bravely Second characters! I knew they where stars (Deneb as well) but i didn’t knew these particular stars have a meaning for Japan!
this reminds me so much of the greek myth with psyche and cupid which is neat. I love your vids. they're fun to watch I hope you're doing fine within this pandemic good sir. love from the Philippines.
In the mythology of Amaterasu trying to tame the earth, ame no wakahiko, descends to earth where he falls in love with a eathling and betrays Amaterasu. He then proceeds to get killed because the arrow he shot reaches Amaterasu when she was talking to another god. One of the god ordered that arrow that if ame no wakahiko has betrayed them,let it strike him dead. And strike him it did. But as for the insect controlling cloth, it appears in the mythology with susano and his son in law.
I don't know if there's this version of the story of tanabata! I only knew the cowherd and the weaver story a.k.a Orihime and Hikoboshi at first. It's interesting to hear another version of the tanabata story!

So...this myth is basically a combination of Beauty and the Beast, Jack and the beanstalk and Eros and Psyche
Just 1 difference that this was written Centuries before those stories.
Eros and Psyche is an Ancient Greek myth.
Yup
mm
and a good dose of Pandora
So...Jack and the beanstalk crossed with Eros and Pykie.
Yeah kinda :D
Do u mean Eros and Psyche?
Do you mean Cupid and Psyche?
Eros is from greek myths and Cupid is from rome
@@Linfamy I was surprised how similar it was. Right down to the trial that involved ants and grain.
Aphrodite and the Oni father would get along quite well. Both like putting their daughter in law through horrible trials
Yeah, and the grain of rice trial (complete with ants) is almost spot on to the one Aphrodite gives Psyche in Greek Myth. It's really cool how humans come up with similar stories across cultures!

Sounds like the cupid and his wife story from greece. nope it most definately is the exact story
Yea. It's so similar, except the psyche trying to kill herself while gourd chan doesn't
It starts out like that, but then it's like the Japanese underworld story where that 81st demigod brother had to sleep in a house of bugs then snakes using a magic cloth.
there's no Cupid in that story, it's Eros, Cupid is the Roman reinterpretation of Eros, stop watching Ted ed, it's full of trash
