The skin has a frog in texture, in color – from gray, green to blue. On the back and chest – a tortoise shell. Like u Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The head is covered with wool; like a saucer that is filled with water. Instead of a nose – a beak. Fingers connected by swimming membranes. It smells like fish.

In some places, there are mouth guards that look like monkeys. Or at “snow people” of a traditional look, but not tall – without carapace, with fangs, all covered with wool. But also with three anus.

Now kappa is considered a deity of water, a water demon – cute creature that protects nature and protects water from pollution.

In some illustrations, there are female mouthguards, but in mythologies they are exclusively males. Eyewitnesses reported that they are these males – in spite of their small stature, they are very keen on earthly women: attack and rape, however having an impressive “masculine dignity”.
