#こんにちは！

Welcome to r/JapaneseFolklore, a subreddit dedicated to sharing the amazing stories and legends of Japan!

On this subreddit, share folklore either by a self post or a link to the full text, discuss stories, ask questions, anything relating to Japanese folklore!

Rules

The golden rule is in effect here. Please be kind and courteous here.
Make sure it is true Japanese folklore and not something made up in the past half century or so, especially if it was made by someone who's not Japanese.
Personally made retellings of folklore are allowed, as long as you mention it is a retelling or rewriting.
Both English and Japanese are welcome here!
