The KAPPA are usually the bad character in traditional Japanese stories. In the comics they tend to fart very strong , they steal vegetables in the gardens, abduct children ... However, the kappa are highly educated beings who follow perfectly the Japanese code of conduct. Therefore, according to tradition, to escape from a kappa it is only necessary to curtsey. The kappa will be forced to return it, dropping water from his bald head and temporarily losing their powers.

The Kappas are quite curious and like spying on humans. They understand and can speak Japanese, sometimes even they relate to human if they obtain benefits.

Some Kappas get to become friends with the man, and even help irrigate orchards or teach medicine tricks.
