COOL LINK ! CRYPTOMUNDO JAPANESE MERMAID LORE - WITH PICTURES

Swimming around the net today I wanted to learn more about MERMAIDS JAPANESE STYLE.

I found this site called CRYTOMUNDO...

"As a nation surrounded by the sea, it is perhaps no surprise that Japan too has its own long tradition of mermaids. These creatures are known to the Japanese as ningyo (人魚), literally “human fish,” as well as gyojin (魚人), “fish human,” and hangyo-jin, (半魚人)or “half-fish human.”
