My answer for your first question:
No, I do not. I think that the mythic creatures is the creatures in the imagination. I think it was not the real existence but expressing something. For example, it might be the symbols of the people's pleasures and desires. Moreover, it might also express people's grudge, hatred, and sadness. Therefore, I think that they are the creatures of fictitious.

My answer for your second question:
Yes, I do. For instance, the water imp(kappa) is included in it. It is said the water imp tug people's leg under the water. And I heard that they sucks people's lifeblood.

My answer for your firstquestion:
Yes I do.I think mythic creatures are really exist. If mythic creatures are unreal, why we know their shape? They may not real now, but they may real in the old day and people could see their. May be someone who is in the old day sow mythic creatures and drow their shape. For that reason, I think mythic creatures is really exist.

My answer for your second question:
Yes I do.I know some creatures of Japanese legend. For example, Kappa, Tengu and Nue. Do you know Nue? It is creature. They have monkey's head, reccoon dog's body, Tiger's leg, snake's tail, and chirp is "Hiii Hyooo." People scare about they in the old day.

First question;
Yes, I think mythic creatures really exist. There are no any evidence that prove mythic creatures don't exist. So, I think there are greatly possibility of mythic creatures really exist.

Second question;
Yes I do. I know a Kappa, Tengu and Tuchinoko. Tengu is a kind of ghastly apparition. Its face is red, and Tengu have high-bridged nose. There are many mystery legend about Tengu in various places.

Answer for question.

①Do you think that any mythic creatures really exist?…Yes I do. For example, I believe Nessie is really exist. Because there are many mystery that have been still clarified in the world.

cucumbers, and has a little hollow top of the head for put some
water in it. If the water dried up
completely, they will die.

MY answer for your question;
Yes, I do. But I do not see it. When I watched TV, the man said " I watch Nessi. It is true." I do not know that it exist. If I think perhaps it exist, my life become fantastic. Of couse, I want to see many mythic creatures.

My answer for your question;
Yes, I do. I think Kappa, Thuchinoko, Ryuu and Tengu are Japanese legend. I have not really looked them. There are many books concern them. I think if my house has Tengu, it is interesting.

First:No I don't. I have heard only the rumor about mythic creatures.And nobody has proof that they exist. I think it is a very fearful thing if they exist.
