Nabeshima bakeneko disturbance

Among the many folklore related to bakeneko, a cat monster that transforms into a human, one of the most famous stories is the “Nabeshima bakeneko disturbance ” that has been passed down in Saga Prefecture. Surprisingly, the ancestor of Yoichi Komori, representative of KOMORI PROJECT, appears in this story.
Mitsushige Nabeshima, the second lord of the Nabeshima clan, loved to play Go. Mitsushige’s retainer, also a Go master Ryuzoji Matashichiro often served as the daimyo’s opponent. But one day, Matashichiro’s consecutive victories displeased his master and he was put to the sword.
In despair over son’s death, Matashichiro’s mother committed suicide, telling her cat Koma to “Take revenge on the Nabeshima family.” Koma licked mother’s blood and disguised herself as Mitsushige’s mistress, Otoyo no Kata, tormenting him night after night.
One night, Hanzaemon Komori, a loyal vassal who had been watching over his lord with concern, saw Otoyo bite into a carp in the pond with her bare hands and lick the oil from the lantern in the room, and finally recognized her identity. To his surprise, her shadow on the sliding door was the figure of a big cat. Hanzaemon chased after the monster cat and defeated it with a desperate battle. Mitsushige repented of his wrongdoing and mourned Matashichiro’s soul, and eventually found peace.
