幻想乡
幻想乡(
幻想乡原本是日本一个人烟稀少、有妖怪出没的区域,许多勇士为了驱除、消灭妖怪而来到幻想乡。人类与妖怪间断断续续的战斗持续到公元1884年。那年,博丽大结界建立,把幻想乡从逐渐科学化、怀疑精神存在的现代社会隔离开来;从那时开始,幻想乡就与现实世界几无接触了。目前唯一为人所知,可沟通幻想乡与现实世界的门户,就是孤零零的座落在极东深山中、结界边境处的博丽神社。
幻想乡的住民以妖怪为主,但人类与其他动物也同样生活其中。有许多住民原本在外界无处容身─如同在外界,自然的黑暗已不复存在一样─,使他们出于逃亡、躲藏或寻找庇护的目的进入幻想乡。
地理位置
幻想乡是个被博丽大结界围绕,方圆至少有数十公里以上的陆封区域。不过,在官方资料中并没有提及幻想乡的具体大小。幻想乡着名的地理特色包括:山脚居住着河童、峰顶居住着天狗、在近顶端的湖泊旁坐落着守矢神社的妖怪之山;魔法森林;永远亭所在的迷踪竹林;被湖围绕的红魔馆;一般认为位于一丰饶谷地内的人里;以及分离彼岸与幻想乡的三途川。
虽然对幻想乡住民来说,穿过博丽大结界到达外界几乎是不可能的(八云紫为例外),不过对他们而言,往来于某些严格来说不是幻想乡一部分的区域,如神、恶魔、幽灵的领域,却相当简单。具体而言,这些区域包括彼岸、冥界、魔界、天界(见东方绯想天)、地狱遗址(见东方地灵殿)。
东方儚月抄(小说版)第四章中提及,妖怪之山保留了八之岳在被木花咲耶姬(富士山神)出于嫉妒而摧毁前的原貌。对应于外界,可将“八之岳的遗迹”看作是位于长野县与山梨县间、八之岳中信高原国家公园内的“八之岳连峰”。这为幻想乡在日本的位置提供了进一步提示,诹访湖(

幻想乡历以1884年大结界封闭为始,基于月相推算——由于历法之间的偏差,幻想乡历比我们快约两个月。
月份名字
幻想乡使用日本传统的旧阴历月名。在日本以外的地方,这些月名被弃用而采用公历的简单的数字月代替[如ichigatsu(日本历一月),Nigatsu(日本历二月)等等],不过这些月份名还能在诗歌和历史电视剧里屡见不鲜。出于韵味的考虑,(在英语里)他们被直译为波希米亚文。
- 四月 - 卯月 (うづき)uzuki
- 五月 - 皋月 (さつき)satsuki,又称早月
- 六月 - 水无月(みなづき)minazuki,(注: 假名"无"通常解释成没有,但这里用的是一种比较老的"拥有"意思)
- 七月 - 文月 (ふみつき)fuzuki
- 八月 - 叶月 (はづき)hazuki
- 九月 - 长月 (ながつき)nagatsuki
- 十月 - 神无月 (かんなづき)kannazuki
- 十一月 - 霜月 (しもつき)shimotsuki
- 十二月 - 师走 (しわす)shiwasu
- 一月 - 睦月 (むつき)mutsuki
- 二月 - 如月 或者 衣更着 (きさらぎ)kisaragi
- 三月 - 弥生 (やよい)yayoi
幻想乡的新年是卯月一日(四月一日)
