The KAPPA is a fictional creature that has been passed down in Japan since ancient times. In addition to kappas, there are many other fictional creatures in Japan, and many of them are called YOKAI.
Kappas live in rivers and ponds. They have a round plate on the top of their head, and it is said that if this plate breaks or dries out, they will die. They have webbed fingers and toes, are good swimmers, and have turtle-like shells on their backs.
Don't throw trash into this pond.
