Mizuki Shigeru no Kodai Izumo

水木しげるの古代出雲

Growing up in Sakaiminato, Tottori Prefecture, Shigeru Mizuki often visited the Shimane Peninsula as a child. Guided by the words of a young man of the Izumo tribe who appeared to him in a dream, he traces his roots to Oki and uncovers the grand mysteries hidden in Izumo mythology.

Years later, Mizuki, now a manga artist, is reading the newspaper when he is excited by a recent archaeological discovery of a series of metal artifacts in Shimane Prefecture. He rushes to the museum to see the discovery and is overwhelmed by the quality of the findings. Plunging into a reinterpretation of Japanese folklore, he uses the artifacts to explore and reinforce the folk tales of one of the oldest known written documents from contemporary Japan, the Kokoji.
