Legend[]

Ichimoku-Nyūdō is a kappa with a single eye on top of their head and is the lord of Lake Kamo. Once, Ichimoku-Nyūdō left Lake Kamo and went ashore. There, he saw a horse tied up nearby and went to ride it. Unfortunately, the horse's owner discovered him and captured him. Ichimoku-Nyūdō begged for forgiveness, promising that he'd give the man a fresh fish hung on the willow tree by the lake with his lapis lazuli hook if he let him go. The horse owner agreed, and as the days went by, he found fresh fish caught on a hook on the willow tree, so he would gladly take them and threw the hook back into the lake. One day, the man decided to keep the hook for himself rather than return it to the lake. The angry Ichimoku-Nyūdō would no longer offer the man fish, and would also attack him in his home every day on the 15th day of the New Year. This went on for years until the man donated the hook to a Kannon temple to escape Ichimoku-Nyūdō's wrath.
