Folklore, Family, and Fear in Ghost Stories (Gakkou no Kaidan)

In this podcast, we take a closer look at the anime Ghost Stories (Gakkou no Kaidan). We explore how the series draws from a rich history of Japanese folklore, including traditional yōkai and yūrei, to tell its story. The discussion covers the clash between tradition and modernity, the main characters' journey through grief, and the powerful theme of a mother's legacy passed down to her children through a ghost journal.Tags:Ghost Stories, Gakkou no Kaidan, anime, podcast, folklore, yokai, yurei, Japanese mythology, horror anime, supernatural
