Wan! Chapter 33

Wan! Special: Japan Bungo Fairy Tales (わん! 特別編「日本文スト昔話」,) is the 33rd chapter of the Bungo Stray Dogs Wan! manga.

Summary
The chapter narrates various Japanese folktales with the characters acting in the respective stories.

Crane's Return of a Favor
Long ago, there was a grandfather and a grandmother, in which the grandfather once saw a crane stuck on a trap. Feeling sorry for the crane, the grandfather helped it off its situation, after which the crane delightfully flew away.

One night, a lost young man came to the couple's house and asked to let him stay for the night, which the grandmother allowed. The young man asked the grandfather not to enter his chamber, but, upon later hearing a strange voice from the room, he took a look inside and saw the crane he once helped sleeping peacefully. The crane then thanked the grandfather that made him healthy. From then on, the crane stayed and lived with the couple.

Tongue-Cut Sparrow
Once, there was a grandmother, who made some meal. Afterwards, a sparrow with an empty stomach ate all her food. Out of anger, the grandmother wanted to cut out the sparrow's tongue, but she ended up forgiving the sparrow's behavior, and they lived together from then on.

Peach Boy
The boy born from a peach named Momotarō began his journey to exterminate an oni. Along the way, he acquired three animal allies. In his journey, Momotarō met the "weretiger" and chased him around (despite Atsushi claiming that he is merely a villager in the story). Meanwhile in Onigashima, the oni kept waiting for Momotarō's arrival, who remarked on his tardiness.

The One-Inch Boy
A long time ago, there was a very small boy. However, the story is unfinished, since Chūya refuses to portray his character in the tale.

Trivia

 * In Bungo Stray Dogs: Mayoi Inu Kaikitan's Fables Scout, Chūya is alluded as Issun-bōshi, the folktale character that he is supposed to portray in this chapter.
