I'm of Japanese ancestry and remember a party my parents took my sisters and me to that had someone dressed as a Haradashi (the Belly Flasher). A huge face was painted on his belly and he did a whole belly dance. Also remember most of the older men standing and shouting "Banzai!" several times. Thanks for the memory!
Whoops, sorry, it was a typo. It was "Banzai", which is pretty much a cheer that I've heard Japanese parties give, usually with drinks. Got it corectected now.@@germantutoring
@@germantutoring "Banzai" is just a thing you cheer with. I can't think of a good modern example but a more historically sounding english version might be "Huzzah!"
Eh, not quite. The term 'Banzai!' comes from the saying 'Tenno Heika Banzai!' meaning roughly translated 'May the Heavenly Emperor live (or reign) 1000 years!' I might have gotten a few words lost in translation, but that's basically it. Typically, if I recall correctly, it was used when a person was about to go through a great undertaking, wishing them both courage and luck. There's also a more infamous instance when this saying was used, but I'm not going to get into that here.
I love all the Linfamy puns and his sponsorship segments are worth to be compilated in a few videos to rewatch and made as an example for other RUclipsrs
Reminds of the story I'll eventually get to translating about a yokai that's just a flying plank of wood that beats people to death. The Japanese had some. . . Interesting supernatural creatures.
I can just imagine it spinning like a helicopter blade, making it the most dangerous beyblade. Though in all seriousness, of all the yokai I’ve learned about, an evil plank of wood wasn’t on my radar
I feel so called out 😂 I’m a Japanese salarywoman who reluctantly drinks with my boss and coworkers (not always reluctantly though, sometimes a beer at the end of a hard day of work is just so delicious)
That's just one part of Japanese culture that's absolutely baffling to me, I don't know a single person, boss or coworker, who wants to end the shift only to have to spend several more hours with the people he hasn't murdered yet only because he gets paid by the hour to be around them.
Dude, if you get Amazake Baba, and you don't want to get sick, you get her the drink without saying a word, and not saying anything, you hand her a cup and close the door. I think you have to write the cup off as lost.
@@Linfamy one thing I do love about Japanese folklore is the tricky ways to confound and trick the dangerous ones. The split faced woman comes to mind most, where you’re screwed. If you tell her she’s beautiful or ugly, but if you just say, she looks OK; a five out of 10,it confuses her and you can walk off.
You are the 3rd youtuber who I automatically like any video of. Internet Today and Videogame Historian are the first and second. I retroactively like all your videos Linfamy
6:05 this yokai seems like something a husband would make up the next morning when the neighbors asked about the sounds of broken pottery and yells "please, put down the knife".
I wonder if you could ward away Amazake Baba by showing her a picture of an Amabie? I can imagine that she tries to make you sick but the Amabie picture makes her scream and run like the green witch from Smiling Friends.
Umm, so i know their evil spirits, but are we not gonna talk about how he might have kidnapped or gathered them? Dont the Pokémon have to consent on some level?T^T
So like the sake lady, in Norway during the black death people would also talk of a crazy old lady with a sythe walking the villages that would be hit with the plauge. Its just so scary to me this is «reported» so many times by such diffrent peoples at very different times.
Sometimes I put Linfamy videos on while doing chores. Then I take a break & actually watch it over again so I can see what I thought, "What?!" at without the visual & attention.
Only Linfamy can b a menace to a yokai and broke brothel patrons all while making a sponsorship sound interesting. Great video. The otter was my favorite, socially awkward. “Ott-ward?”
If the rule about unused objects turning into Kami after too long is real, I have a feeling the dishes in my grandma's china-cabinet have a few years until they turn into one of those Seto Taisho's, lol🤣😭
Honestly that just sounds terrifying, waking up just to see the entire china cabinet’s worth of dishes chase you like an army of little angry plate people
“Alcohol gives you the ability to pass out on any surface.” That’s about right. I had a friend pass out in a garage on top of power tools. Not kidding. Gave him a pillow and moved him, however he wound up somehow on the ground again.
1:21 I just love how in some Japanese Folktales doing the right/decent/humane/kind thing is exactly the WRONG thing to do. Lesson learned: leave old ladies to fend for themselves in a blizzard
Okay, but River Otters aren’t that cute anymore when you remember they can get up to 6 feet long and are super territorial. But that might just be the South American variety. (I can’t unsee that pic of one fresh off the hunt, though…)
Did you know? The Kameosa was invented and introduced by famous Toriama Sekien in 1776. He named it after one of his students, who was an unbeaten drinker. "Kameosa" also means "Captain Drink-a-lot" and that's how Sekien's student was nicknamed. Btw: the Kameosa is also rumored to never go empty on sake if he was treated with love and care for 100 years.
There is absolutely no doubt my place is overrun with yarn yokai. I really hope they don't strangle me, and just turn into ugly clothes. ETA: those guys who paint their bellies like whistling faces and put giant top hats over the arms and heads? Obviously yokai.
There is no such thing, as amazake that has no alcohol.There are two ways to make it. One that involves a bit of alcohol producing fermentation, and the other one, that involves more alcohol producing fermentation. A _relatively_ low amount, in both cases. Typically under 1%, which is the limit for what Japanese law, counts as alcoholic, but clearly still a notable amount.
Hello. I'm very interested in the content on your channel. Linfamy, could you tell me what your sources are for these subjects, especially for the content about courtesans.
Isnt baba a loanword from slavic branch? Slavs got separate words for both genders in terms of age. Lets say male. There is a separate term for boys before puberty, boys after puberty, late puberty or early adulthood male, fully developed man and finally old man. Useful in describing. Additionally making the word baba (old human female) sound litte/soft like babushka, babichka or whatever you say 'grandma' as in family. And slavs also have something like that baba. Likho was the name. She wandered around the world to places where happy people lived. She caused fires, made food go bad, sent pests and rodents, bad luck, poisoning, and also spreaded dieseases and the dieseases was her primary one. To this day many slavs curse each other by calling likho on whatever or whoever they got angry with. Its said that even calling her name could cause her to come to the village, so she was the one that shouldnt be ever named, she was referred to as "the HER". She also whispered to vulnerable people and drove into madness and she whispered them bad things to do and they often times did.

Somehow I think their AA support meeting would be full of much crazier stories than average ones. Thanks Linfamy. Your videos are always top tier.
"watch this until the end and youkai just might come and drink with you"
Notice he never specified which youkai...
If I see a soft shell turtle with the head of Patrick Stewart then I gotta take a break from drinking
I love all the Linfamy puns and his sponsorship segments are worth to be compilated in a few videos to rewatch and made as an example for other RUclipsrs
The French word 'bourse' can mean both a purse for money and scrotum. They're both a little bag with valuables inside.
"Coin Purse" is an antiquated but occasionally used slang for scrotum in English.
Reminds of the story I'll eventually get to translating about a yokai that's just a flying plank of wood that beats people to death. The Japanese had some. . . Interesting supernatural creatures.
Imagine trying to explain to the authorities how your friend died by a flying plank of wood that started beating them up into a pulp
It's all fun and games until the 2x4 starts hovering.
Plank's become wierd since the Eds' last scheme...
I can just imagine it spinning like a helicopter blade, making it the most dangerous beyblade.
Though in all seriousness, of all the yokai I’ve learned about, an evil plank of wood wasn’t on my radar
I feel called out in 0:04 Also, how can you keep getting away with the flawless ad segment!!! 🤣
According to Touhou, every youkai is an alcoholic. So is every human. And gods as well. Miscellaneous beings? Also alcoholic.
That’s because ZUN himself is a crazy alcoholic (how has that man’s liver survive this long)
If gensokyo, if you’re not an alcoholic, you’re the weird one
maybe ethanol was the final boss of touhou

Sadly, the Japanese river otter was hunted to extinction, so otter yokai no longer exist.
bro was eliminated by the alcohol industry
The names of the timestamps are just pure gold. The attention to detail, my god. xD

Wow. Literally me
