What Is a Kappa?
A kappa is a famous yokai from Japanese folklore, traditionally said to live near rivers, ponds, and other bodies of water. It is often described as a small, human-like creature with webbed hands and feet, a turtle-like shell, and a dish-like plate on top of its head that is said to hold water.
In traditional stories, kappa can be mischievous and sometimes troublesome, but they are also known for their distinctive personality and unusual appearance. Today, kappa are familiar characters in Japanese popular culture and are often portrayed in a much cuter and friendlier way.
The kappa in these coloring pages is a cheerful chibi version inspired by this well-known Japanese yokai.
