Is it the monster's fault?

My favorite yokai is Nuppefuhofu.

Hello! I'm Audreyburn!

"It's the youkai's fault."

When that anime was really popular,

A lot of things were blamed on monsters.

"Hey! Don't blame everything on youkai!"

Is there anyone who thought this?

At first, I wanted to say quite a bit,

So this is what I love about monsters

When I had time to think about it,

A thought suddenly occurred to me.

If you think about it, haven't we been blaming it on monsters for a long time?

What led you to that thought?

First, about the yokai, for example, one(?)

When I researched it, I found that there are various legends.

there is.

for example,Blue monkThere is a monster called this.

He is in various prefectures

It is said that,

theCharacter

It totally varies from place to place.is!

For example, in Okayama PrefectureJust show up at an empty houseIn Yamaguchi Prefecture,The incarnation of the mountain god who invites you to sumo.It is said that...

Huh? Is he the friendly old man from the neighborhood?

That's about it (laughs).

But! But!

In Shizuoka Prefecture,Kidnapping a childIt is said that in Kagawa Prefecture,He invites women to hang themselves, and then when they ignore his invitation he forces himself on them.There is an extremely scary legend that goes like this!

Yes…Isn't the range too big?

Even if it was just oral tradition,

There is no consistency or commonality...

And as for the other monsters,

Although the name is the same, there are various theories

The character's personality is not quite clear

There are lots of monsters.

butThat's fine!and,

That's what I thought.

in the first placeWhat are yokai for?

Why was it passed down?

Here is the word Yo-kai Watch

"It's the youkai's fault."but

I think it will live.

People believed in yokai more than they do now,

In those days when there was no internet and the only information available was by word of mouth,

It is not the law that punishes people.

Wasn't it a monster?That's what I think.

In short, a yokai is

“The horrible fate of a person“

Isn't that the case?

Well thenWhy blame it on monsters?

It was necessaryOr not?

It's not like "Scary people are coming!"

Wasn't that good?

Didn't you want to blame someone else for that?

That's what I thought.

Since ancient timesPeople are suspicious of humans

I didn't want to have it…?

The world was a lot smaller than it is now.

In other wordsWhat is "It's the monster's fault!"?

"Thanks to youkai, I don't have to suspect people!"

Isn't that what it means?

In other wordsInstead of the theory of human goodness

"It's the youkai's fault."

So it's not good to doubt people.

So that's it?

Blaming it on monsters makes it seem vague.

Without doubting or fearing anyone,

I was able to subtly admonish myself.

This is my take.

Thinking about it like that,Thank you monsters….

Or so I think(*ˊ ˋ*)

This is also for me, who loves monsters.

Maybe this is just my opinion because I'm on the side of the monsters...

WellNot all monsters are bad,

I'm sure it's still loved by many people.I guess

That's what I think!

So, everyone sometimes

Try thanking the monsters!

Maybe something good will happen...? Lol
