Final artpiece by Acotama for their youkai project, based here on Utagawa Kuniyoshi's The Origin Story of the Cat Stone at Okabe. You can find here the presentation of this piece and here the WIP of the big nekomata.
I already share two of those doll monsters (depressed pumpkin ghost / fox-deer-faced discarded hakama), but Acotama made 140 of those creatures, and some will be sold this Winter, so be sure to follow their page if you are interested :D

A fox traditionally shape-shifts by clenching a human bone between its teeth—thus the pile at the bottom. Toriyama Sekien, The Illustrated Demon Horde’s Night Parade (1776), on Kitsune-bi

chatbot sharing: Takeshi
as you’re left tied at his altar as an offering, the tsundere tengu, despite harboring no genuine anger toward you, opts to feign irritation & continues to torment you relentlessly; inspired by Beauty & The Beast

omg this is my time to shine (<- insane abt youkai and denki mystery au)
so from what ive seen and read, in the denki mystery event story, the brothers dig up these idol like things that are wrapped up like mummies, and each one depicts a youkai from the youkai set (oni, tengu, kitsune, and so on)
in the aptly titled Oni set for the denki mystery au, a dark version of osomatsu's hyakki yagyo (night parade of 100 demons) shows up and terrorizes the brothers
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
those are all the connections that ive seen/read about, but i feel like there is a lot of room for interpretation about the connections between the two aus :)
INTERESTING INTERESTING…
do the mummified idols have any connection to the au? or are they just an object…
there’s definitely a lot of room for speculation and headcanons or interpretation (which is awesome methinks) BUT THANK U FOR EXPLAINING OTL

Hyakki Yagyō (百鬼夜行, "Night Parade of One Hundred Demons"), also transliterated Hyakki Yakō, is an idiom in Japanese folklore. Sometimes an orderly procession, other times a riot, it refers to a parade of thousands of supernatural creatures known as oni and yōkai that march through the streets of Japan at night. As a terrifying eruption of the supernatural into the real world, it is similar (though not precisely equivalent) to the concept of pandemonium in English.

Azure Fang - (most likely) Yuki-onna (雪女, "snow woman")
Yuki-onna prey on travelers lost in the heavy snowstorms that blanket the Japanese Alps in winter. They have an otherworldly beauty, with long black hair and dark, piercing eyes. Their skin is ageless and as white as snow, but their bodies are as cold as ice. A mere touch is enough to give a human a deep, unshakable chill. They feed on life force, sucking it from human’s mouths with an icy breath that freezes their victims solid.
Tumblr media
Breeze Dancer - Jorōgumo (Japanese: 絡新婦)
Jorōgumo is a type of yōkai, a creature of Japanese folklore. It can shapeshift into a beautiful woman, so the kanji that represent its actual meaning are 女郎蜘蛛 (lit. 'woman-spider'); the kanji which are used to write it instead, 絡新婦 (lit. 'entangling newlywed woman') have a jukujikun pronunciation that is related to the meaning, but not the sound of the word. In Toriyama Sekien's Gazu Hyakki Yagyō, it is depicted as a spider woman manipulating small fire-breathing spiders.
Tumblr media
Crimson Fist - (unknown, suggested are: ghost warrior, ghost samurai, cursed samurai armor)
Tumblr media
Midnight Blade - Tengu (Japanese: 天狗, lit. 'Heavenly Dog' or 'Heavenly Sentinel')
Tengu are a type of legendary creature found in Japanese folk religion (Shinto). They are considered a type of yōkai (supernatural beings) or Shinto kami (gods or spirits). The Tengu were originally thought to take the forms of birds of prey and a monkey deity, and they were traditionally depicted with human, monkey, and avian characteristics.
Buddhism long held that the Tengu were disruptive demons and harbingers of war. Their image gradually softened, however, into one of protective and even manifestations of Buddhist deities, if still dangerous, spirits of the mountains and forests. Tengu are associated with the ascetic practice of Shugendō, and they are usually depicted in the garb of its followers, the yamabushi.
Tumblr media
Scarlet Blaze - Nekomata (original form: 猫また, later forms: 猫又, 猫股, 猫胯)
Nekomata are a kind of cat yōkai described in Japanese folklore, classical kaidan, essays, etc. There are two very different types: those that live in the mountains and domestic cats that have grown old and transformed into yōkai.

How about a witch based in the parade of 100 demons? Like yokai based.
Zu: Witch of Hyakki Yagyo
Tumblr media
Zu, the witch of Hyakki Yagyo with a uproaring nature. Zu is composed of 100 demon youkai and will unleash via a deadly breath attack. It's very clumsy and will occasionally bump into things as it leads a parade of familiars through the traditional Japanese village barrier. It loves causing pandemonium across the barrier, terrorizing all who witness.
Zita, a familiar of Zu. Their duty is to parade. Zita has no "definitive" appearance, resembling many different youkai and tsukumogami. They go around gobbling up offerings, destroying property, and other petty disturbances. Zita will offer their body up into the collective that forms Zu, if Zu becomes wounded.
Miru, a familiar of Zu. Their duty is to look away. Miru despise Zu and the Zita, but they are feeble and lack combat abilities, so all they can is to hide away in their homes. There is a rule where nobody must watch the parade of Zu, or else that shall be hunted down by the witch itself, that includes the Miru.
(Thanks for the suggestion @honestlyboringperson!)

Following the pumpkin ghost figurine I reposted awhile ago, here is another adorable beast handmade by youkai-enthousiast artist Acotama.
Acotama's work is inspired by characters drawn in hyakki yagyo emaki (scrolls depicting "night parades of one hundred demons") popular during Edo-period. If some monsters were well known ones (kitsune, tengu, oni, kappa, etc.), many only appear once, making them cheeky creepers drawn for fun more than terrifying creatures of the night.
The discarded hakama shown here is awakening into a tsukumogami with a funny fox-deer face:
