A line-art of an amabie's ear fin.

This is a quick and lazy entry as I'm working on multiple other things at once.

It's just Ponyo and Sakura's little ear fins.

A photo of a marker drawing, the markers are lying next to it. It shows a screaming Yōkai, mouth and eyes black, with long black hair.

I always feel like if I have started with posting digital art it's not ok to post analogous stuff and vice versa because it will annoy the people watching. But I guess horror art is horror art.

A bit older from the phase I was working with markers a lot.

Double page spread style dossier of two giant Yōkai. On the left is Ōmukade the possessed centipede spiraled around Tokyo Tower and unleashing a fireball. There is a polaroid of the broken mountain shrine. On the right is the possessed marble wolf statue Raijū showing off his stormy mane and tail while stalking through a village. There is a polaroid of the regular wolf statue.

New dossier for Age of Monsters: Atomic featuring Giant Yōkai.

A tengu puts his weight on top of a reclining oni as he leans on a naginata planted between the oni's horns. They are situated in a lush forest with sunlight breaking through the canopy.

Krow is trying to teach Tetsu to use some brains with his brawn, but the oni can't resist messing around during their training

Grandfather told us that the land was once overrun with shapeshifters, ghosts, demons, and tricksters. People were trained to deal with these beings. These individuals weren't normal, having been born with a special chi to defeat them.

of recent viewing, Takashi Miike's 'The Great Yōkai War: Guardians' (2021) is a fave 🐉 an impressive #Yōkai count & spectacular visuals throughout 🦊 I loved the first film & you can read my #movie #review of 'The Great Yōkai War' (2005) @framerated.co.uk

Another Halloween from long ago. My son remains a big GeGeGe no Kitarō fan.

Although it can happen, it is rare that a wild kudagitsune allows itself to be tamed by a human and bond with them as their magical familiar.

I see some weird square of...Tofu? Mochi? It has a swollen forehead, full of knowledge.

Black Cat Mansion (1958) Watch HD Dailymotion video by Seyran3521nasuh2489comm

Kaibyō movies are a particular favourite of mine. Miyata Fumiko is great as Lady Miyaji & the kaibyō in 1958's Black Cat Mansion. It has a great climax. You can watch the whole movie here with English subtitles. www.dailymotion.com/video/x8ht8wn

Umibōzu- Giants of the Deep

In Japanese folklore,there are tales of great beings rising from the see..darkened forms with lamp-like,lidless eyes that send a chill into all who meet their gaze.
