Speaking of scary Inuit monsters, there is a wonderful, slightly scary, kids book, called The Shadows That Rush Past -A Collection fo Frightening Inuit Folktales" by Rachel A. Qitsualik, which folks might enjoy. It includes the giant NANURLUK (polar bear). https://t.co/hxwHWlvIko

Happy Fairy nobility may have all the ballads and folktales told about them but don't overlook the smaller, mischievous fae. The hay fever pollen fairies are the bane of my summer!

What is the series?📚

A collaboration between the company San-X (famous for Sumikko Gurashi, Rilakkuma, etc.) and record label Nippon Columbia.
It’s a music and drama CD series that is based off of folktales. They battle through “live battles” to gain the ending that they want.

This was interesting. A blend of spacefaring sci-fi and traditional Korean folktales. Not to mention a prominent character whose nonbinary status is treated as no big deal.
