Patreon support Liana brings you this special episode on the rokorokubi, a long-necked monster from Japanese ghost stories!

Just started listening to the episode. Happy to provide guidance on Japanese pronunciations any time they come up--I've lived in Japan for the past 24 years. Vowels in Japanese are pretty much identical to those in Spanish: there's only 5 of them, and they're always pronounced the same. O is always the same as in the English word "go." U is same as the vowel sound in English "soon." I is the same as the y in "happy." In Japanese, a "long vowel" is not changed in sound--it's just elongated, so ō (also written "ou" or "oh") is just vocalized twice as long as o, but they otherwise sound the same.
