شاید یکی از جالب ترین قسمت های این کتاب-که پر از داستانهای ترسناک و داستانهای کیوته-یوکایی بود به اسم جینمنجو
Jinmenju
یوکایی که از شاهنامه برگرفته شده
کاش کمتر توضیحات تکراری داشت که خوندنش انقدر طاقت فرسا نمیشد

I really enjoyed the stories but the first part of the book was a little hard to get through. I listened to an audiobook version so I was able to breeze past that quickly, though I might have given up if I was reading print. There are probably more engaging yokai books if you're looking for something fun.

I don't know why but, just thinking about this book, just makes me angry, or at least just a little annoyed.
This book is sectioned into 3 parts (one being the glossary, which I didn't read, cause glossary). The first part was so boring!!! If you want to read this book (which I don't really personally recommend), I highly suggest skipping the first section. If I remember correctly I think the first section made me fall asleep at least once.
The second section that was actually about the Yokai was good. I enjoyed the original illustrations and some of the old art that's sprinkled in there. I do think it would be hard to make something super boring when you have such an interesting source material.
