Synopsis

This anthology presents traditional Japanese folk narratives passed down through families—tales of miraculous births, mysterious visitors, and small wonders that reveal both sorrow and joy. Each 30-minute installment contains three independent vignettes, drawing on familiar legends and lesser-known regional stories. Several episodes highlight warm, resilient tales from Tohoku, aiming to honor local traditions and offer consolation after the 2011 earthquake. The series preserves the moral lessons and emotional nuance of these stories while delivering compact, self-contained dramas suitable for all ages.
