Experience the timeless legend of Urashima Taro like never before. This isn't a static PDF—it is a fully interactive digital flipbook that brings the Dragon Palace to life on any device. Perfect for bedtime reading, Japanese learners, and folklore enthusiasts. Available as Pay-What-You-Want.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m the maker behind this. To give you some context: I am a full-time college student and semi-pro football player.
You probably don't see many athletes launching folklore books, but I have a huge passion for the Japanese language. I felt that the classic story of Urashima Taro deserved a version that was fun and accessible—not just a boring static PDF.
I’m launching this as a solo student founder, so I don't have a marketing team or a big budget. I’m relying entirely on your feedback!
What you get:
🌊 A digital flipbook experience (works on mobile/desktop).
🐢 A retelling of a classic story about kindness and time.
🇯🇵 A fun way to introduce kids (or yourself) to Japanese legends.
Why is it Pay-What-You-Want? I want this story to be accessible to everyone, so you can grab it for $0.
However, if you enjoy the work and want to support a student creator, you can chip in a few dollars. All proceeds go directly toward my tuition (and my post-workout protein shake fund 🥤).
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the flipbook format!
Arigato! 🙏
