kappa
A kappa (河童 (かっぱ), lit. river child) is a type of water sprite found in Japanese mythology. It is famous for its love of cucumbers and also its odd eating habits, such as feeding on hapless victims by sucking out the entrails through the anus; this leads to its other name: shirikodama (anus) vampire.
Their appearance varies; some are drawn with an ape-like face or a bird beak, hair circling the skull, tortoise shell, and green scaly body. Notable characteristics include humanoid (child size), a water-filled head depression, and webbed feet and hands.

河童（河童（かっぱ），字面意思：河童）是日本神话中的一种水精灵。它以其对黄瓜的热爱和奇怪的饮食习惯而闻名，例如通过肛门吸出内脏来吸食倒霉的受害者；这导致了它的另一个名字：shirikodama（肛门）吸血鬼。
