Funny you should say that, the minish are based on them c:

They're originally a lil mythological earth spirit people from the ainu people of Northern japan (in and around hokkaido).

The minish and the harvest sprites from harvest moon /story of seasons are inspired by them and shaman king had one as a semi regular character. Its super neat.
I see. And I knew about that one shaman king character but idk I've not been reading japanese mithology (I only know some yokais and monsters) and there are still stuff unknown for me lol

Thank you for the explanation

Man, Tsugi manga nominations are not disappointing. Looking forward for future chapters

Why is "Gou-chan" "Little Golly"? Using "little" as a so-called translation for "chan" is so cringe.

I mainly know of Korpokkurs from SMT. From what I've played they were in Soul Hackers and SMTV. They're also in P5 where they're also referred to as "Leafy Old Men." And you know what it's true. Just look:

How adorable.

Thank you for the translation.
They also showed up in the Raidou games. The ones in the manga basically look identical to the ones in the SMT games so I recognized them immediately lol.
