The "Takeuchi Monographs" Were True!? New Evidence Finally Discovered!?

The credibility of the "Takeuchi Monographs" is debated. A stone monument corroborating its authenticity was discovered in ** prefecture.

The Takeuchi Monographs is a book that compiles the ancient history of Japan from the time before that chronicled by the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki. The document, discovered by religionist Kiyomaro Takeuchi, was written in Jindai moji, ancient characters predating kanji, detailing the genealogy of the imperial family and the holy sages who had served the emperor dating from 317,500,000,000 BC.

The stone monument that was discovered had Moses' ten commandments engraved on it in Jindai moji. Through carbon dating, it was determined to be at least 5,000 years old, sending shockwaves through the scientific community.

It is said that the professor of folklore at Josei University who submitted a paper that served as a clue as to the monument's finding is currently missing.


Sudden Price Jump in Online Auctions - the Tragic Idol's "Cursed Record"

"Cursed records" have caused a stir amongst the public several times. The quiet voice of a fan who died in an accident on the way to a concert, a ghost in the photo on the cover, a devilish message that can be heard when played backwards - there are too many urban legends surrounding them to count.

Several of these creepy records are said to currently be attracting high prices at online auctions.

One of those demanding particularly high prices is Watashi no Kare no Hidari Te ni Nikukyuu, a huge hit single by idol singer Eri Azuma in 1976. Eri Azuma is known as being the "tragic idol" who perished in an accident on the way to that year's new year song festival after being hit by a truck.

Recently, a magazine announced that the grudge-filled voice of Eri Azuma, having met her unnatural end, was on the record, accelerating its spread. Currently, the average winning bid comes in at 120,000 yen.

The song has illegally spread throughout the internet as a song that will curse the listener, with those involved seeking a way to deal with it.

She also has a younger sister, Riko, who is an idol herself. It still remains unproven whether their songs contain cursed voices.


Coincidence? A Fateful Bond? The Unfortunate Drama Surrounding a Pair of Twins

Twin sisters Louise and Joan, who live in Ohio, America, from a young age had suffered broken bones in the same places and been separately given the same presents by different people, coincidentally sharing many experiences. This mysterious phenomenon continued even after they became adults and began living apart. On the same day Louise, who had moved to New York, and Joan, who stayed in Ohio, both went to pet shops and bought puppies, though they had not spoken to each other about it, and named them Skip. Whilst walking Skip they both met a young man at the park and fell in love.

When Louise and Joan told each other that they were getting married, they were both shocked. Everything, from the day they fell in love to their wedding dates, was identical. Because of this, they decided to have a joint wedding at the same church.

Their weddings were extremely dignified and simplistic. This was because they needed to summon only two families to the church.
That's right: the men they had fallen in love with were both twin brothers living apart as well.

Since ancient times, twins have been said to have a curious synchronicity. A University nursery here in Japan assembled a class made up entirely of twins and conducted experiments in an attempt to unlock the mysteries of synchronicity.


Direct Coverage of Aliens Creating Crop Circles!

Crop circles that suddenly appear in vast fields. This magazine has obtained a significant clue surrounding their mysteries. We have made direct contact with the one who first began creating the circles!

The data-collecting team was conducting research on crop circles in a wheat field in ** prefecture. An old man walked over and began speaking to them. "Did you guys come to see the circles? I made them all."

The data team were in disbelief at the sudden confession.
The old man gave his name as Zenzo Yumito, and showed us how he created the circles. "Here, you take a long tree branch and use it to push down the heads of the wheat like this, then push them down like you're weaving."

Old man Yumito skilfully drew a diagram of the wheat field and showed it to us. It was not the method we had hypothesized had been used, but since he had created a circle before our eyes there could be only one conclusion: this old man was an alien!
"Where am I from? I've lived here all my life."
"Why do I make them? Revitalising the village. Yeah, udon made from this wheat taste great. You should try some."

The alien tried to mislead us with his cunning remarks. In order to out his true nature, we will require further tracking data. We intend to continue our research.

By the way, the udon the alien made were amazing.


Notes

#1 - The Takeuchi Monographs is an actual book upon which the in-game one was based, hence why they share a lot of similarities.
#2 - "Jindai" is written with the same characters used for "Kajiro" in the game. Some forms of these characters also resemble Shibito script.
