It's... England and Japan... and I don't know how to translate Kanazawa-ben to English. OTL



After forming the Anglo-Japanese alliance,
To deepen our friendship,
England-san stays over at my house.

The ghost folklore in Japan


In this century, the belief in ghosts in Japan seems to have almost eradicated.

In Yamaguchi,

"A princess, who earned the misfortune of death at the peak of her happiness
a long time ago, turns into a shooting star and returns to her hometown."

In relation to this legend, people go to the "Shooting Star Contest" to compete in making the most genuine shooting stars.
In the contest just now, before them for everyone to see,
a genuine shooting star occurred in the sky and everyone got their video cameras...

Surprisingly, the people here and there weren't that excited about it.
