Two from the land of fuck-pillows and weeb dreams, relevant to Current Year.

The monster is called an
amabie. It’s a bird-mermaid thing related to illness and epidemics. Of course, it’s everywhere right now. I’ve even seen an
amabie mascot costume, so you can look forward to that being the next big fursona fuck-suit thing.
The second is a
kuchisake-onna, “slit-mouthed woman.” This is an urban legend. In the story, a woman in a mask approaches a lone school-aged kid on the street. “Do you think I’m pretty?” she asks. Regardless of the kid’s answer, she takes off her mask to reveal the Japanese equivalent of the Glasgow Smile and says, ‘how about now?’ Then she either eats the kid or bites his ears/face/whatever off. Obviously a “don’t talk to strangers” allegory.
