Yokai Museum: The Art of Japanese Supernatural Beings from Yumoto Koichi Collection (Pie Yokai Festival)

Yokai Museum is a really nice art book. There's a bit of writing (some in English some in Japanese) here and there but it's mainly just good pictures. It's split out nicely in sections too.

As described, beautiful edition, full of details and a total treasure for any eastern visual culture fan! Totally recommend this book. Great reference material.

amazing work...highly informative

Fabulous pictures!

More about artifacts than the yokai.

brillant as I expected

Simply delightful in its visual richness. You do not have to be a fan of ghosts or of this type of fiction to enjoy the richness and the pictoral and cultural experience. I received this as a gift and it was one of the best-thought-out gifts at the price. It bears putting out for otheres to look at, but you will want to keep it good to see the richness of the pictures again. A good book for the imagination to just roam on.

Delightful read. It's a stunning collection of art that keeps me coming back for another flick through. The quality of this book is very high. The layout is simple, going through various ages of yokai and the mediums used to depict them.

Gorgeous book. Aesthetically pleasing display of a fascinating Yokai collection. Best for someone already familiar with the subject matter.

THIS IS THE MOST IMPRESSIVE BOOK I HAVE SEEN COVERING THE YOKAI...EXTREMELY COLORFUL..HUNDREDS OF UNIQUE ILLUSTRATIONS DEPICTING THE SURREAL WORLD OF THESE CREATURES. THE PICTURES ARE AUTHENTIC FROM THE CULTURE AND NOT CONTEMPORY RENDITIONS...THROUHOUT MY STUDIES OF THE SUBJECT THIS BOOK IS ASTOUNDING AND THE BEST....WALK DON'T RUN AND GET TWO COPIES OF THIS SUPERIOR PRODUCTION FROM PIE PUBLISHING YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT..."DAL LAZLO SAYS THESE ARE VERY TWISTED CREATURES "

ゆっくり、じっくりと眺め読みたい本です。妖怪好きな子供と並んで座って、しげしげ～、と、眺めております。見飽きぬ本です。ありがとうございました！

... qui gagnerait à ne pas seulement donner des commentaires techniques sur les œuvres mais à indiquer systématiquement le nom des Yokais concernés (ce qui est rarement le cas dans le livre) et à donner un résumé même bref des caractéristiques de ceux ci, des légendes qui leur sont sont liées et de leur place spécifique dans la culture populaire Japonaise (ce qui est aussi rarement le cas dans le livre).

Libro excelente, repaso bastante bueno del mundo de los yokais, muy recomendable.Practico si te quieres tatuar algo relacionado con este es tenso mundo.
