I will explain you why you should be afraid of oni, the worst of the yokai 👺 English below⬇️
When I read about this YoKai there were creepy legends from Japan 🎍 This yokai eats children, tortures people and ultimately represents evil👹
Since I'm preparing the YoKai series, I understand that Japanese mythology wants to warn us of evil from an artistic point of view🎨
I also tell you that this YoKai can adapt any form, for example man or woman and appear to be a good being, even though it is exactly the opposite🪱
This YoKai can appear in our daily lives in the form of a family member or boss, for example 🐗 apparently normal and peaceful people, but with dark intentions🧿
Have you ever had the misfortune of meeting a psychopath in your life? 😱
I wanted to represent Oni with the appearance of a Buddhist monk in the middle of the forest apparently praying⛪️ And as I said before, this YoKai hides the most perverse intentions of harming anyone who is found🪬 because his soul feeds on the misfortune of others😰
Like in those Japanese legends where the Oni appear 🗾 I think in life you have to be careful who you meet👹
