This has got to be my favorite Japanese Folktale

[@morganpyre6689]

Such a cute story 😊

[@jagirl966]

My grand aunt gave me a little "statue" of this little guy. He is sitting in a tiny teacup. I forgot his name after 5 years. This showed up in my recommendations and I clicked it. I'm keeping this in one of my playlists for all time.

Wow, this sounds extremely like Thumbalina and Tom Thumb. There is even another western story (which I believe is a variety of the Tom Thumb story) were he too faces a monster, but is actually killed.

It's not how big you must be to win in a fight but how big a fight you have in you to win.

Yup "size matters not". ^_^

Ah, so it looks like this is what inspired Shinmyoumaru from Touhou, that's cool!

[@raevinkinforgottenangel2607]

So this is what inspired the little bug dude and part of the story from okami. I think the moon princess was a different one but it even has the mallet lol

I used to have a book with this story. It didn't survive the humidity of Hawaii. I did manage to save some of the books.

Issun-boushi! Heck yeah!

[@claudiostudios9002]

You deserve more attention

[@blatinobear]

Does anyone know if this inspired Bojji and Ousama Ranking?

[@torress9119]

Amazing illustrations! Suscribed!

[@maruhime9061]

🤔ᴴᴹᴹ it's almost a resemblance of Bojji from Ranking of Kings

[@kaseymartinez7970]

❤ just found your channel, it's amazing! Subscribing now 😊

[@sarsgarrs]

this has to be an inspiration for ranking of kings

[@christineking2855]

What a great story!

[@Sirealvington]

Just hit my foot to a wall *AEAEAEEA*

[@WedgyBlue]

I saw this litttle dude on YUGIOH Zexal Yuma's card... Now I get it the monster effect heheh

Why don’t you credit the show that you take these from? This is from the “Folktales from Japan” show. You should give them credit, since you’re using their artwork and basic story structure. To do otherwise is dishonest!
