《罗生门》 / Rashomon

《罗生门》 / Rashomon is the [[AkutagawaRyunosuke|芥川龙之介]] short story that 17.地狱变：众生皆苦，一念入魔 carefully separates from [[InAGrove|《竹林中》]]. The episode notes that both are distinct Akutagawa stories drawing from Japanese classical material, even though global memory often merges them because of [[AkiraKurosawa|黑泽明]]’s film.

In the source’s account, the short story matters partly as a setting and atmosphere that the film adaptation makes iconic. The episode uses the distinction to keep literary source layers visible: the cultural phrase “罗生门” now usually names truth-conflict, but the major testimony structure comes from [[InAGrove|《竹林中》]].
