Gegege no Kitaro - Kemedama - Glow in the Dark (Linden)Kemedama · Linden

This glow-in-the-dark Kemedama figure is produced by Linden as part of the GeGeGe no Kitaro franchise. The figure features a luminous variant of the yōkai character, adding an atmospheric display element that suits the supernatural theme of the series. GeGeGe no Kitaro, created by Shigeru Mizuki, follows Kitarō, a yōkai boy born in a cemetery after the death of his parents. As the last surviving member of the Ghost Tribe alongside his mostly-decayed father Medama-Oyaji, Kitarō fights for peace between humans and yōkai, often protecting humans from the wiles of malicious supernatural beings. The series is populated by a rich cast of yōkai from Japanese folklore, each with distinct appearances and abilities. Kemedama is one such yōkai character from this expansive supernatural world. The glow-in-the-dark feature is particularly fitting for a series centered around ghosts and supernatural creatures, as the luminous effect evokes the eerie atmosphere of the yōkai realm. Manufactured by Linden, this figure offers collectors of GeGeGe no Kitaro merchandise a unique variant that captures the otherworldly essence of Mizuki's beloved horror-comedy franchise.
