YUKI ONNA The Snow Woman Yuki Onna (Snow Woman) is a traditional Japanese folktale of a spirit or yōkai who appears on snowy nights in a white kimono and even whiter skin. She is beautiful, but deadly, leading unsuspecting travellers astray or killing them outright. In our story, she is both deadly and compassionate. Anchin & Kiyohime A young priest learns the danger a lie can invite. While beginners to Japanese can get a lot from this, hiragana knowledge is required.
