Description
Japan's mermaid, three ways: its first sighting in the Nihon Shoki and the temple mummies that survive today, the 800-year-old nun who ate mermaid flesh, and Amabie, the Edo-era plague-warding yōkai that all of Japan drew again in 2020.
Written for upper beginners: full furigana, line-by-line vocabulary, the text again without furigana, an English translation, and native audio.
