Kappa made it to the main food court – perhaps he’s hungry?

Usually located in the Kids Zone area near Orange Cafe, goes Kappa, in Japanese known as 河童 (orカッパ), a mythical Japanese monster that was popularised by Ryunosuke Akutagawa’s 1927 novel ‘Kappa’.

Kappa was luring both kids and adults to come play with him. After doing some reading on what Kappa’s do, I think those kids should stay far away…

Pro tip, apparently he likes cucumbers so hide those when you see him!
