Good Friday Morning, how many of you have been in the Bijutsu-kan Gallery at Epcot? You and your family can explore the ancient myths and legends that gave rise to Japan’s modern anime culture, one of its biggest exports today. Learn about Naruto, InuYasha and other magical creatures as you walk around the exhibit: water sprites, giant horned ogres, the Monkey King, cat spirits and the man-crow Slayer of Vanity, who plays tricks on the vain and proud. You’ll see anime figurines, manga art, cute plush toys, 1,000 lucky paper cranes and read about the legend of the Moon Rabbit, the inspiration for sassy Mina Tsukishiro, leader of the lunar-based Rabbit Force and wielder of a giant carrot hammer. “Spirited Beasts” gives parents and kids alike a newfound appreciation for the origins of these familiar faces and their exciting adventures. They’re not just child’s play; they’re an integral part of Japan’s cultural history
