Description[]

In a video interview with a ghost story teller named Yusuke on cryptozoologist Takeshi Nakazawa's YouTube channel, Yusuke introduced Gunma Giant Red Bird as a story he heard from a woman in her 30s. (The video can be viewed at this URL https://youtu.be/sVNHV1zZv4E?si=h54lOrtxEeFlnUZW)

According to the story, the woman was riding the train while wearing earphones when a giant bird-like creature flew in from the opposite direction of travel and ran alongside the train. The creature was larger than a human and red. After this sighting, the witness said that she had a relationship problem and that it might be related to this bird.

Takeshi Nakazawa suggested that it was related to mothman because it was a winged cryptid that appeared as a sign of trouble; several cryptids similar to mothman have been reported in Japan, including Fukushima Mothman, Kyoto Mothman, and Echigo Mothman.

It may also be related to the Real Rodan reported from Kyushu, considering reports that it looks like a giant bird.
