In The '70s, Japanese director and puppet artist KihachirÅ� Kawamoto (1925-2010) created several Stop Motion short films. They are mostly based on Japanese Mythology and also take inspiration from the country's traditional forms of theatre — Noh, Kabuki and Bunraku puppet theatre.2003's Winter Days, also directed by Kawamoto, includes some stop motion segments.

Cock Fight: Both the poet and the warrior want the hand of Unai-Otome, and try to solve the matter with an archery contest, shooting at two mandarin ducks (which are traditionally considered as "birds of love" in Japan) on the Ikuta river. Both shoot an arrow at the same duck, killing it.

Not Good with Rejection: Kiyohime, to say the least. She doesn't take Anchin's rejection well, keeps running after him, turns into a dragon, and eventually kills him.

The Reveal: When the brothers rush back home with the cut off hand, they open the house's door and find their mother writhing with a missing hand and blood around her, then she turns her now-changed face in their direction — it turns out she is the demon.

comment
Cooked to Death: At D�j�-ji Temple, Anchin is hidden under the bell of the temple's courtyard. Then, when Kiyohime (in dragon form) crashes in, she smells his presence, envelops the bell with her dragon body and starts breathing fire all over, then leaves to kill herself. Once the temple's monks lift the bell, they find out Anchin has been reduced to a skeleton, which then crumbles into dust with the wind.
