Youkaimura is far from being a reliable source. I deleted the link. --213.172.246.37 14:30, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

I renamed the above heading of an entry into "Popular culture" and shortened the entry considerably. Here's the bit I removed:

The Tsuchigumo are also featured in the japanese anime Otogi Zoshi, which is also based off of the Raikoh legend. Within this anime, they are a sect that were forced together through threats by their new established leader. They wear bird like masks on their face and don't seem to have much of a vocabulary. They also had under their presence one of the five Magatama, which Raikoh's sister, Hikaru, planned on using to restore her brother.
