These Fantasy manga have a distinctly classical Japanese aesthetic, often taking place in Japan or Japan-adjacent settings that are steeped in the country's culture, folklore and traditional costume. More Supernatural than your typical western fantasy, characters tend to exist alongside Youkai, oni, mononoke, or gods from Japanese Mythology. Humans are often exorcists, ninja, shrine maidens, monks, or unfortunate souls with the ability to see spirits. Stories can range from simple human-meets-paranormal romances to epic battles pitting humans against the gods themselves. (Point of reference: Renta's 和風 tag, publisher tags where available)
