Thus concludes The Kojiki As Told By Brittany! Well, not quite. We still have the historical context, local rituals, and some more info about Izumo Taisha to address in the coming weeks. That, and although it won’t be a preview of more comics to come, I am hoping to do another local mythology themed nengajo (New Year’s card) illustration (see 2013, 2014, and 2015).

Like the red color thread/ribbon touch in the black and white manga!

Had to come up with something special for the last one!

Awesome! Really good work, I have to translate that story for my course and your comic really helped me, now I’ve got the story in mind and it’ll be simpler to translate :)

Happy to help! That must be a really difficult course to be translating that, especially if you’re doing it from the original texts! I got most of my source material a variety of sources in modern Japanese (both spoken and written in non-scholarly fashion) and doubt I would have even attempted if all I had was the original text.
