This is the place for useful links in researching for a possible persona, shadow, or whatnot, as well as information on Japanese life, cuisine, or anything else of not. Feel free to add your own links!

Contents

Folklore, Mythology, and Urban Legend Research

  • The Obakemono Project - A stylish site dedicated to supernatural creatures in Japanese mythology and folklore.
  • Encyclopedia Mythica - A site devoted to all sorts of myths and folklore from around the world. Some of the more obscure figures are little more than blurbs, but it's a good place to check.
  • Godchecker.com - An irreverent take on mythology. Some entries are short, and the site has a tendency of getting overworked, but it's a fun place to look.
  • Buddhist & Shinto Deities in Japan - While this focuses more on artwork depicting various deities, it's an excellent source for Japanese Buddhism and Shintoism, and the various ways deities are depicted.
  • Monstropedia - An encyclopedia devoted to monsters in mythology, folklore, urban legend, and popular fiction.

Japan Research

  • Facts and Details: Juvenile Crime in Japan - Law in Japan comes up a lot, so this is a good place to get an overview of some of the famous juvenile crime cases, plus how the laws have changed over the years. It also has a list of additional resources.

Language

Tarot and Jungian Psychology Resources

  • Aeclectic.net - A good overview of the tarot and their symbolism. Also includes symbolism for reversed cards.
  • An Introduction to Jung's Shadow - Like it says, an introduction to the Shadow as Jung uses it. Useful for thinking about your character's Shadow, among other things.
